Being able to replace the kernel is that major? I can still flash customs ROMs, gain root access, and overclock on my Bionic. Also, with superior hardware, replacing the kernel isn’t as necessary. The Bionic is snappier on stock than my Sensation was with a 1.8 GHz overclock.

1 beastly core that’s going to draw beastly power when it gets used…
Most uses of such a core are underutilizing it meaning that in most
cases, the beast-core is overkill.

Having multiple, lower-power cores, will assuredly achieve efficiencies
over a single-core solution as software works the cores on-demand. This
translates into better battery life.

This will also ‘feel’ faster when multitasking/multithreading (ala Android-ICS+).

Own a Bionic. Love the Bionic. It’s the 2nd best phone available on Verizon right now.

If you call taking steps forward in mobile screen tech ‘taking steps backwards’ then we agree.

*2nd of course to the RAZR MAXX

Apparently liking articles on a website is a binary state: You either like it, or YOU CAN GIT OUTTTTT!!!!

Capacitive, not hardware. Get over it.

Agreed on the camera, but a simple case will fix that.

I doubt it, It’s most likely GSM (seeing as most “world phones” are) and Verizon uses CDMA/LTE.

You can’t listen to music and pay attention to your surroundings at the same time? Pretty sad…

I’ll stick to my Bionic and not be a douche, thanks.

Motorola = top tier build quality + radios, HTC = slightly lower build quality and radios, but a bit more open.

GSMarena.com says May or Q3, which doesn’t sound that far, but you’re right, somehow I think Q3 is more realistic. And I’d probably wait until it was un-fashionably cheap before getting one anyway. It never pays to buy just released gadgets, but I’m going to have fun selling it to people who think technology will make them feel better about their mortgage, loveless marriage, and kids that hate them. Haha!

Hate to burst people but I will GLADLY remain with my GALAXY NEXUS. People who purchase this device do so for the stock pure android opportunity as well as all the other goodies. Htc ruined ice cream sandwich in my mind all the extra animations and flare are not needed on top of android any longer this is not 2009 0r 2010. What HTC has done was add their own flare with the 3 buttons at the bottom of the screen ICS was not designed in this manner and GOOGLE should prevent manufacturers from doing what they want but I know they won’t or can’t. The right concept exist on the GALAXY NEXUS the right flow from a software standpoint and the right feel. Htc is well know for it’s friendstream bug, browser crashes, mms text bugs, and various other issues that crop up with htc device. I owned the EVO 4G and EVO 3D and know all their is to know about htc. Various sites have compared the Internation version the HTC ONE X vs the GALAXY NEXUS and they too have found various bugs and issues with sense 4.0. People better be well aware of what they are getting out there in the UK. As for the states I’d be worried too because At&t’s network is new and these software issues on htc devices are bound to happen. Hardware doesn’t always match up to software and I applaud SAMSUNG and VERIZON for what they have done with the GLAXY NEXUS. It isn’t perfect maybe one 4.0.5 update away from perfection. Otherwise no device on the market today from an software standpoint will ever BEAT the GALAXY NEXUS. Sprint customers better pay close attention to what’s being said in forums and on the internet as well as tech sites who feel the current GALAXY NEXUS id BETTER THAN THE HTC ONE X. I already know it is even with the international quadcore tegra 3 it still won’t touch the GALAXY NEXUS……..
