Worried about that shiny but vulnerable new glass back on your Nexus 4? Well, it seems as though Google has prepared an official solution to quell those fears. Google announced the accessory a few weeks back, though the official Nexus 4 Bumper has officially made its way to the Play Store. It's not available for purchase just yet, though when it does go on sale, it will be priced at $19.99.

Personally, I'd much prefer a bumper as opposed to a traditional case, seeing as it takes less away from the smartphone's aesthetics. However, $19.99 seems a bit steep to me. I guess that's the price you pay to avoid hearing that rather unpleasant sound of your $350 phone's glass shattering to pieces.
