So what? It was pretty much a sure thing eventually. I still think that the E4GT is the better phone. It will get ICS this year, by samsung or the wonderful devs here. It has a better processor that clocks higher with a better GPU. The camera is 8mp vice 5mp and while megapixels arent everything, there is a clear quality difference between the ones I take and the ones my friends Nexus on verizons take.
Yes yes..its a nexus..gets OTA via google. But guess what..even the 'stock' android of a nexus device ends up being heavily modified by users here at xda anyway. So might as well tweak and tinker on a better hardware phone. They might get updates a little faster..but we get those updates soon enought..they DONT get our hardware eventually. lol
1.5GHz dual-core processor. For those keeping count, that's 300MHz more powerful than the 1.2GHz chip in the HSPA+ and VZW models.
^ That seems pretty good to me

when will it be available ...i don't care about camera i want fully working updates in the same year as its released...
I'm keeping my SGS2E4GT until LTE is available in the locations that I work.
Right now I use Wimax in both Denver and St Louis and tether my Laptop, Nook Color, and other devices.
Not switching to an LTE phone until LTE is available in both those places. I don't think I'll be getting the GNex either. By the time Sprint rolls out LTE the Nexus 4 will be out.
Is it time omap or exynos processor?
If it exynos then will buy it in heartbeat
Sent from my SPH-D710 using Tapatalk
Cant see myself getting excited over a phone that probably won't even come out until June or July and will already be leapfrogged by other phones. I swear I hate the US methods of releasing phones.
First Lte will be in Dallas, Atlanta Houston, and some other cities by mid 2012 so leaking lte galaxy nexus makes sense

I bet is is a TI OMAP. Would make updating easier to keep same chip family as other GNex.
I was expecting the GNex to be released soon on Sprint. That's why I bought a used SGS2E4GT for $250 and still have my upgrade ready to go. I will probably wait until LTE is available near me, however.
I hope this is the Exynos that we originally heard about...even if it isn't, pffft, big deal. I'm already making plans to sell my ET4G if this thing drops any later than March 26th....which would be stupid, but, whatever.
N1 was awesome, NS/4G was awesome...I haven't played with one yet, but, even if it is the OMAP it will be clocked to 1.5ghz and but much closer in performance to our 1.2ghz Exynos......and if its Exynos, holy crap.
...maybe they just needed some time to finish developing the CDMA+LTE Exynos and after all the delays they did what it took to get the first one out the door last year at all....
This news is very meh to me. I had the Galaxy Nexus and returned it after a few weeks. It's a cool phone but the E4GT is much nicer.
I will be selling my Epic Touch, any buyers?
My thoughts exactly

+1,
i agree, by then maybe we'll have a SG3, htc or just around the corner another great phone ...
That actually looks nice. Might be my next phone. We'll see what's out by June.
No point in getting a new phone until we have LTE and sadly Kansas City wasn't on that list. I bet we get it soon though. Somethig about us being the Sprint world headquarters...

Are they just overclocking the Sprint version? http://www.technobuffalo.com/tag/galaxy-nexus/
i really hope they get a qualcomm version and just took a higher advertised clock speed over real life performance, i will never be using a snapdragon processor again, at least if their still using adreno

They used OMAP4460 in the VZW version as Exynos doesn't like LTE at all. That's why the US version of the SGS2 is Snapdragon instead of Exynos. As for the GSM version, I'm guessing because they couldn't be bothered using anything better.
Thanks bud! So our verizon version has a different and better chip set?

Being a Nexus device, Google likes spreading the love. Nexus One had Snapdragon, Nexus S had Hummingbird, Xoom (not Nexus, but closely supported by Google) had Tegra, GNex has TI. Next up, who knows... But they certainly seem to like broadening the amount of chipsets they support more than they're focusing on raw performance.
Here sprint has some serious data issues. So bad tha AT&T is faster on edge much of the time. They could release a 2ghz version and i still wouldn't go back to them. I'm sure that it is likely worse now with the iphone.

Just to set your story straight....
The SoC is rated for UP to 1.5 GHz. This doesn't mean that our chips are in fact rated for operation at 1.5 GHz. Take some time and search the dev threads about this. It's a pretty big misconception regarding the 4460. Not all 4460's are in fact the same (apparently). Did Samsung/Google underclock these chips? Slightly, but as you will see, these chips will not in fact (generally) hit clockrates higher than 1.4 GHz. The general thought is that there is an issue with the clock generator for 1.5 GHz and higher, which causes the problem.
The GN for Sprint will have the same problems, and will probably be a PR nightmare now.....especially when users find out that their GN only runs at 1.2 GHz.
Sprint version probably has different SoC.

About the only thing i saw skimming that wouldn't make it for sure is the screen.
Doubling the ram isnt crazy at all. 12MP while not even desirable due to image noise is pretty low considering the HTC Titan II and others are sporting 16MP sensors. 2 Ghz A9 dual core is available pushing it a little but hey.
12 megapixels actually can be pretty good. It isnt all about megapixels. My wife has a 500 dollar Canon that is only 14. I am pretty sure our 8 megapixel is better than a lot of phones.
On my Epic mobile phone.
I think that is the Sprint LTE phone to get. My SGS2E4GT will last me until there is LTE in my area. By then the GNex will be old news. SGS3 will be my upgrade.
I hated 3D. I got an EVO 3D before and is not good watching a full movie. It hurts your eye. Why not change the screen size to match the galaxy note.
Rumors or not that image is awesome..
Go a little stronger on the radios this time Samsung... kthx.
Reality S3 probably:
1.5 Quadcore - 12MP Camera - 16/32GB - 2GB Ram
Wishful S3:
2.5GB Quadcore - 16MP camera - 32/64GB - 2/3GB Ram
What will make me say WOW is if I could replace my laptop and be able to handle medium to light heavy processing power of a laptop (probably s4)... Until then it's business as usual.
If that's true, I'm starting to save right now.

We have to remember we're dealing with a phone manufacturer AND processor maker here. It all depends on which route Samsung decides to go with their processors...the Nvidia route, and racing to add more cores; or the qualcomm route, and trying to improve and refine their dual cores. Both ways offer benefits.

I have tried to convince the HTC fanboys exactly this but they don't want to hear it. All they have to say it, Samsung phones are plastic and junk.....Um okay, I will enjoy my junk phone that destroys the EVO 3D in every way but you keep thinking your phone is better.
I am so glad I gave this phone a chance because it made me realize how crappy and underachievers HTC phones really are.
Whatever the SGS3 will have it will have to be an upgrade from the SGS2 and because of that, I will be on it!
Hi,
I have a Samsung Vibrant and want to upgrade my phone to Galaxy S II, now do you guys recommend the T-Mobile version or the international version?
Please don't consider only the phone but also the future ROM development also.
Thanks in advance
specs wise I recommend the Tmobile one because of higher process speeds. and for development, I haven't really looked into the international version but the att skyrocket is the same phone as this so whoever gets a better ROM 1st , both sides win because they are compatible with eachother
Sent from my SGH-T989 using Tapatalk
I don't know too much about the international version but I believe you will get better data speeds with the Tmobile version depending on your area but the processor is better in the international version.
I recommend going with the international phone. If you are curious about development, check out the forums of each device and see what you like. The international version will also get official updates faster.

I came from a Vibrant. Went GNexus then went to GS2 today.
I used the Gnexus for about a 9 days and already the GS2 seems way snappier (using the Juggernaut 4.1) Can't say about the battery life on it yet, but with the GNexus I was able to get full day with a single charge with wifi on all day.
Enterrpise email on push along with gmail and hotmail. sms/mms/listen to podcast for about 3.5 hours.
I'll have more details with the gs2 (T989) in the next couple of days.
Why would you get the international version when you would be stuck on edge speeds?
This phone is fast a you would need it to be but its true the development here is slow. I would recommended this phone to anyone in a heart beat.

Okay heres the dealio. Non bias or anything. Internation galaxy s 2= GS2 T-mobile galaxy s 2= 989
The 989 has a larger screen to play with. Not really a necessary thing to have but its nice. The processor on gs2 is alot better. Exynos processor. The only reason the 989 has a bigger number in processor is because its a qualcomm snapdragon. Which is sucks... lol. Exynos has better gpu and cpu control. The cameras the same. And yada. The data is better for tmobile since it is true 4G. (42 mbs) but i dont see using the data a whole lot unless you tether 24/7. But the lack of development in this community is just like the SGS4G. Honestly its cause this phone doesnt really need it. Once we get CM9 then you... Devs will work there asses off cause cm9 is the best and far more developed than stock. But its slow atm. The gs2 already has ics roms i presume and if not then they will really soon! So its all about your patience...

Why Do you say Exynos is better? Any proof? at least gs2 is higher in GHz.
The exynos has a smoother transitions and i compared it to a sprint gs2 with an exynos processor. The game asphalt is noticeably smoother on the exynos processor. And number doesnt matter at all. Windows phones are still 1.0 ghz and not evem dula core and can do perfect with animations and games. Honeslty dual core is nonsense... But exynos is an all around better processor. If you dont believe me then go to a sprint store and play around with their gs2

How is that old technology. I would say its cutting edge. There is only one phone out that uses a quad core and its a Tegra 3 not a Exynos. Exynos is supposed to be way more powerful. Also since Nvidia and qualcomm had a falling out ( from my understanding ) its not even available in the US. Quad core with 20% lower power consumption, bigger HD screen and 12 mp camera alone makes me want it bad.
Im super excited for this! I dont think the next nexus will be all that to be honest. The Nexus has never really stood for groundbreaking technology and if Sammy makes it your probably looking at the chip that will be in it lol. The benchmarks on the S3 look amazing thoughleaps and bounds better than anything out their currently. And we still dont know the GPU yet. I think so far its pretty much demolished my chance at getting the evo 4g lte. Unless they do something crazy like throw an S4 in the Sprint version.

Because an A9 chip doesn't mean crap, it's old tech. And the Mali400 was already old with the S2 came out, why the heck are they using it again. It's not going to perform much differently than this phone aside from some big HD games, the only difference youre looking at is probably some sharper pictures and a nicer screen.
Well, it comes down to this....
Samsung quad core(older technology doubled)(like a nice 1988 Iroc Z28)
HTC dual core(new tech)(like a finely tuned Audi A3 turbo)
Motorola Tegra 3(a new Mustang....not a cobra)
Where is the Ferrari?(Quad Core Krait)
I am on the fence. I bet HTC drains slower. Motorola might have one huge battery(3300). Samsung has a better screen and pictures.

I dont think so because the 4G LTE but at least an s4 1.5 or 2.0ghz dual core 2GB ram 12 MP camera would be awsomeee....
Still dreaming....

Am I the only one that feels like TouchWiz has gotten even worse. Granted I haven't seen much but it doesn't even look complete.
I hate to say it but I think Samsung is throwing away its lead with this device, especially when you see what HTC has coming.

They said that all last year about the sgsii. American units were supposed to get the Tegra 2. Not basing the specs off rumors.

No I didn't because I left my phone on the reply screen via tapatalk as I typed my message. Also, no one can officially determine what might come to be within the next months.
So your point being is? We both hope the sprint version gets the 2 GB's of ram, and an exynos processor.
It won't be Exynos... as of now, those are incompatible with 4G networks. Unless some technology breakthrough occurs, then it's the S4. But the S4 isn't really even worse than the Exynos. Granted it is dual core, it still benchmarks really similar scores.
The 2GB RAM sounds like a likely possibility though. I'm sure they would include it if the Japanese get it with the same processor.
Wasn't Sony suppose to release a 12mp android soon?

i think it's fairly obvious what my point was... you may as well include time travel in your list of hopeful features.

I guess being a wishful thinker is against your code or something.
Make this happen with a quadcore exynos a15

y'all need to stop making these threads about the gs3 and evoLTE. There are enough of them already, have nothing to do with the et4g, and these phones already have their designated sections on xda. this ****s annoying
Well, all the more that a relative will be picking this up when it goes on sale. (Docomo is only giving a June-July timeframe right now)
Their website now has it listed although it's a little light on specs right now:
