I’m not complaining about the camera on the G-Nexus. For me its camera is fine is just the damn speaker that’s garbage.

Why don’t we fix this problem and just all switch to Moto? Their products are built to last – even their feature phoens last a long time. My OG Droid lasted the full two years, at which point I upgraded to the bionic. The bionic continues to last, but I still plan on upgrading to another Moto because I’ve had nothing but positive experiences with them.

I didn’t see the price drop yet on Verizon wireless. With no update since its release and the bugs it has, it’s not worth to spend that much on this phone unless you want to root; however, this phone is the best there is in its UI and features. Rezound is for fans of Sense, but I am not impressed with Rezound as the UI is not up to the mark (with lag). My HTC Incredible has better sense with gingerbread than Rezound. By far the best Android phone is the Nexus.

$100 price drop for new customers.

For buying through Amazon Wireless, new customers have been getting much better deals than upgraders for quite some time. I suppose Verizon knows that unlimited data is keeping long time customers from shopping around.

Is there a chance that the galaxy nexus price droping because maybe the galaxy s3 is coming our way?

Slow updates? Galaxy Nexus devices (save some regional builds) update directly from Google, even the Verizon phones:

A co-worker just got the Verizon GNexus last week; it’s 4.0.4 (same as my GSM import GNexus), uses Google as its update provider, and didn’t have any carrier provided apps installed.

The only difference I could tell is mine has a SIM card and his has LTE.

Better screen? You must be joking. The 300+ dpi display on the GNexus is better than any other Android I’ve seen.

The price drop is probably more to do with competing with the Sprint Nexus being $199. I wonder what happens May 10th. That date has been on the MAP since December or something like that.

Obsessing over .0.X updates is silly. But if you must, go get it. The only reason I’m on 4.0.4 is because AOKP switched over to it.

To be honest, color reproduction is eeew…
(Not that my Thunderbolt’s camera is much better though).

He said official 4.0.4 not leaked versions.

I didn’t say I would like it. But a lot of people would. As a cell phone salesman, it one of the number 1 most asked questions. “What colors does it come in?” Granted its mostly women. But they like options. They will pay extra to not have a phone that looks like everyone else’s.

Should I get the Nexus or the Rezound? Have the Thunderbolt now, love Sense but i feel like it slows the phone down a bit. Just need some quick thoughts on the subject.

With how hot the SGS II was and the fact that Sammy is heads and tails about every other Android device maker in sales, you can bet VZW will try to get their hands on the SGS III. I’m sure the only reason why they skipped over the SGS II was because they had the Nexus. And the note, who would think that a tablet phone would sell? I’d bet on the SGS III coming to VZW.
