i m making a big decision tomorrow . im still debating whether i should buy a gal nexus or a gal note . i dont mind a 5.3 inch screen but i also lovePURE ICS. if it was you guys and you have the money tomorrow to choose, will u still pick the nexus or go for the note?
Nah.. I love my gnex because I never have to worry about not having the lastest and greatest android OS... 5.3 inch is too big for me already also hut I do like the screen on the gnote and the stylus functionality...
I'll still go with the GN. Note looks nice but GN is still better in every way IMHO

Way too f***ing big. And it'll never have stock ICS or be up to date.
This is my first phone from Nexus series, but i already love it very much so my next phone will be Nexus too, unless Google/Samsung will mess up something. One of the examples would be 5.3" screen, that would definitely stop me from buying it.
So my answer is no, i wouldn't buy GNote even if it was with 80% discount.

you're not going to find too many people in the galaxy nexus forums that will tell you to trade it in for a galaxy note...go to the galaxy note forums and you'll get the opposite.

Also true. XDA is a bad place to ask for opinions because the respective forums will always be biased towards their phone

CM9 is not stock ICS. And it isn't OTA'd to my phone. I realize you can root and flash a custom ICS ROM on any device. What if I don't want to? Being able to root and ROM a phone isn't a selling point for me. I like the freedom, but I don't want to buy a phone that I have to root just to get the experience I want.

That's not exclusive to XDA. That's any community/forum.
I owned a GNex, then sold it for a Note (International). I then sold the Note and bought another Gnex.
The grass isn't greener, particularly if you already have a laptop or Android tablet.
The Note is nice, but having the latest OS on a phone that works on any GSM network (TMo 3G, ATT 3G, etc) is awesome. You can use it on any GSM carrier with 3G. I have a TMo SIM ($30 unlimited plan) that I refill now and again when ATT pisses me off. It's a beautiful thing.
How can you compare the note...or any other device to a Nexus line device? LMAO
Listen OP, any other device that gets released gets forgotten about for the next big thing...but not the Nexus.
Its google's baby, it gets the support from google, it gets the most ROM's, it gets everything first.
The note gets compared to the Galaxy Nexus, next month it will be the next big Android device being compared to the Galaxy Nexus as the note is forgotten. Over and over until there is a new king...a new Nexus.
Forget any other device and just go with the Galaxy Nexus or you'll be sorry...Give it a few months and people will not be able to even trade a note for a Galaxy Nexus. It happens all the time.
DOnt forget NFC
I agree with Adreno..... the kind of dev attention GN is getting , Note will never imagine .....plus all the benefits mentioned in above post.
we tend to forget GN NFC capabilities because there's not much happening on that front at present i guess, but rest assured GN will be the first phone to commercially use stable apps for NFC if not already; that alone makes it competition proof for quite some time
Personally i wouldnt trade for a note. I absokutely love my nexus. Plus the nexus screen pixel density is higher than the note, so it looks more crisp. And its pure ICS with google updates.
Love galaxy nexus first phone I didn't want to theme the mms or phone dialer...

No, it's too big.
Actually the size of Gnex screen is already pushing my limit. But its design works so it's working well for me now. I think the screen size of Gnex is the biggest that I will go for a phone.
[Sorry, wrong thread]
The writing and drawing capabilities are top notch. If any of these guys had the juice to make a CDMA phone that didn't suck, I'd take the hit and trade now. The Nexus is already a big ugly beast.

how do you guys feel about being limited to 16 gig of storage? And correct me if im wrong but looks like the note has more roms now than the nexus. But nexus development is far from done. Im gonna buy one of these phone and im still undecided. Damn......
Hey guys! Currently I'm on tmobile with the gs2. I've always had a nexus device until verizon stole it Lol. I loved always having up to date software, which is not the case with the gs2. I'm also sick of the sg2 xda forum.. Too much ******ry going on there.
Do you guys think it's worth getting? After selling the gs2 ill only be paying around 100 more. Amazon is selling for 500.
Before the nexus i have a gs2 i like the nexus better people's here saying that they have reboots problems with the phone but i never have a single problem with it i love it also coming from a 4s two

I think so dude. I moved here from the i9100. I haven't looked back. AOSP ICS is simply amazing! There are small hardware gripes I have with the nexus compared to the i9100, but I moved to the neuxs more for the ICS and updates. Plus I have the Verizon LTE version and the speeds are pretty sweet, minus the battery drain. Oh and that Amoled HD display is so damn sexy.
I'm going to be making the switch too. I wouldn't be losing any money making the switch, make a good enough profit buying and selling things here and there.
lol, it is impressive how every 2-3 days we have someone posting the exactly same thread here

Thanks for the response. I'm gonna miss the camera but I think I really want a gn.
wait until a better phone then the nexus. Going from galaxy s2 to the nexus is not really a big step up. I would wait for the galaxy s3 or if you need a phone really soon I would get the HTC one. The nexus isn't so much better then the galaxy s2 and some might even say the galaxy s2 is a better because of hardware.
gl
unless you actually switch your phones alot....i'd say stay with the i9100 until galaxy SIII
I'm only switching cuz I feel like it and I got the nexus really cheap (in my eyes) and I can sell my i9100 for almost just as much since I have a white one and a good amount of accessories.
Plus I sell laptops and other phones and stuff making good profit like that.

I'm not going to buy another non nexus phone. If I remember correctly the nexus was launched in nov-dec. The next nexus will be released around the same time I assume. This will be the time my upgrade will be available so hopefully the new nexus phone will come to tmo and ill use it to get that.
If not I'll use it on the gs3 sell it and buy the International nexus
I'm ready to pull the trigger. Does anyone know where to get one cheaper than amazon?

Negri electronics, NTT DOCOMO version unlocked. Exactly the same except it was originally Docomo locked and has docomo branding on the backplate. $460 and you get warranty unlike amazon. Negri and Expansys assist. It's on backorder right now so I would just go with Amazon. I ordered mine sunday from Negri and it will arrive Monday according to Fedex because they ship from Nevada. There are some concerns with IMEI though because of the way they unlocked it but not a big deal for me on AT&T. I'm just going to save the original IMEI files etc...as backup

Wow, I'm somehow not surprised man. Everyone was itching for ICS since every day that one guy kept posting articles about CM9 and ICS. It was bound to explode once ICS was released.
I didn't want to be a part of that immaturity and left reluctantly. I say reluctantly because the phone itself was beastly, I had the white one and it was probably one of the best designs minus this phone I've owned so far.
Stop making threads about it and just do it.
I'm thinking about shooting myself but I took an arrow to the knee. Somebody should start a website "thinking about selling x so I can get x". Then whoever takes me up in the best idea eva can start a thread called I'm thinking about selling my website so I can buy Facebook.

i came from an htc sensation which is think is very similar to the gs2:
- both considered flagship phones (dual core, 4.3-4.5")
- both have microSD slot over the gnex
- both have better camera than gnex
the biggest thing for me was that most of the sensation roms were Sense based (even on XDA) and i wanted pure AOSP. im not sure how it is on the GS2 but i am assuming the same (ie most of the roms for the GS2 are probably touchwiz based). if you want pure AOSP, nothing beat the nexus

Naw...galaxy phones have huge dev community. We have a lot based on Samsung firmware but also a ton based on aosp. Cm9 was one of the first to go nightlies and be every day usable for a while now. A lot of aokp and aosp based roms also or a decent amount at least.

Well if your gonna wait for the next big phone youll always be waiting....i posted a similar thread a cple of days ago and im happy with my nexus.....mainly for the fact that im always waiting for the next release by a carrier or company who made the phone...its frustrating to have things that sorta work. The screen is amazing. The phone is speedy and smooth. But the best thing are the forums....ive been on xda for about 3 years now and people havnt been nicer or more helpful than the Gnex forums...so far

The nexus looks awesome and I'm sure it is, but at this point why not wait a week or so for the HTC one X?
Hey everyone, just giving a quick thought whether or not I would be joining this section of the forum. More specifically I'm debating on purchasing a GNEX and I'm not sure if its worth it at this point, I hear a lot of talk about how people should wait until the next Nexus device and I'm wondering if its too late to buy one now. My purchase price would be about $365 locally, in mint condition (I cannot purchase from PLAY Store because I'm in Canada), and I'm wondering, should I just go ahead and buy it since I will be going to university next year and money will be tight when it comes to getting the latest and greatest Nexus device, plus I will be guaranteed updates with the GNEX. Also, JB has just smoothed things over significantly for dual core phones, which makes me want to look at a Nexus rather than a quad-core phone. Any insight would be appreciated, looking to make the deal for the Nexus tomorrow if I decide to!
Thanks!
Check out the several other threads that have been opened over the past two weeks asking basically the same question...
sent from my Galaxy Nexus running official Jelly Bean!!!!
in your position with school and money and all i say go for it, i love mine.
Since you're on a tight budget due to going to college, this phone will probably be worth it to you. You just have to ask yourself if you're willing to stick with this phone even though you surely know another one will come out so soon. Also if you're interested in any other devices such as the Galaxy S3 keep in mind you are on a budget and dishing out a couple more hundreds for a device only slightly better wouldn't be worth it in my opinion. I say get the Galaxy Nexus now since despite it being more than half a year old but $365 seems quite steep for a Galaxy Nexus that's not new but in "Mint Condition".
buying and selling locally is a double edged sword, you can sell for a lot more, yet people think that their device is gold, going this route I'm saving shipping and roughly getting it at cost that the play store would provide, except for the fact that its not bnib, and I'm thinking that the new releases of Android that i will get, plus the development community will make the device new and refreshing every time i decide to make adjustments to it which is also persuading lol
I don't know if you have an update coming down the pipeline with your service provider, but if you do, I would wait. I would assume a LTE Nexus is in the works (as rumoured 5 nexus devices coming this year). If push comes to shove the current gnex is a wonderful option though. The HSPA+ gets me 7-10 down, 5 up in Pittsburgh. Those speeds are nothing to sneeze at, and will do for you what you need.
Guys, I need a little help from my friends.
I just finished my contract with a mayor carrier who I am not going to give free advertisement and I am looking into the Galaxy Nexus. Everything I have heard about it is great. The one thing that is stopping me from buying one is :
Is there a new GN coming!!! Will I buy one and the next day Google is going to release a new one!!!
I have not been a member of this forum for a long time but from my interactions with members I can honestly say that there is a lot of smart and tech savy people here. I know answering this post will be speculating. but I know somebody here must know something!!!
Come on guys...
I ordered a galaxy nexus this weekend and am worried about the same thing. But they way I look at it even if they announce a new one tonight it will be weeks, if not months before you can even get your hands on one. So yeah it may be worth it to hold out a bit longer but I needed a phone sooner, not later and the galaxy nexus has such a huge scene that I think there will be the latest software for the next couple years. My galaxy nexus should be here tomorrow and I am so stoked to switch over to it and flash cm10 on it.
We haven't even got a hint at the new Nexus. I remember that we all called the Galaxy Nexus the Nexus Prime *long* before it came out. I haven't heard any names floating around for the new Nexus.
I do recommend buying the unlocked Nexus from the Play Store. You will have an unlocked GSM device and no contracts to worry about. The price is good too.

I think no one will know it for sure. We all expect that Google to release the next nexus very soon but no one can guarantee anything. Honestly, I think if you need a phone now and want Nexus go for it. If you don't, you can always wait since we know the next version is coming soon.
I think even if the new phone comes out soon, the nexus will still going to be a good phone. I can see that the only good thing about the new phone is probably LTE support and most likely better camera. It of course will have higher specs for other stuff, but in my opinion, these are the only 2 major improvement of the new phone. The other specs is probably not going to be that huge of a deal
I do think that the next phone will be slightly more expensive since google has such a big success so I guess price is also something worth considering.
I also looking into the Samsung Galaxy S3 vs Galaxy Nexus. I S3 seems like an awesome and fun toy. The small detail is the $600 vs $350 difference in price.

I have a friend that has the s3 to me when I compare the two there isn't much different. Even though the s3 has a better processor the nexus is as smooth as the s3. I guess its all personal preference. It depends whether or not you want touch wis or pure android.

I highly disagree, look at the Nexus 7 and the pricing. The next Nexus will be the same price if not cheaper. As far as a huge success, not really. Most people that buy these devices are geeks like me and you. The average consumer will go and buy the S3 or a low budget phone (android).
I'm excited for the new one because I think Google will get it right this time and my guess is either Sony or Asus will land it.
I ended up smashing my Samsung Galaxy at the gym two days ago. I bought it in May 2011 and it has been such a sweet device. Instead of getting the phone repaired I thought I may as well just buy a new one. I have been keeping a close eye on the speculation for the conference next week and I've been doing some research on Androids offerings. Please keep in mind I am a university student and whilst I am prepared to spend quite a bit on a new unlocked, device, $500 is more-or-less my limit. 16gb of storage is fine for me too. I have an iPod touch for my music. (keep in mind i'm in Australia).
Option 1: Nexus 4. If the rumoured specs on the LG Nexus are true, and the price is below $500 this would be my first preference.
Option 2: Samsung Galaxy Nexus. Typically because I love the true google experience. I had CM10 and Slim Bean ROMs on my SGS1 before it broke. This is more-or-less $330 online for the 16gb version. Big advantage of having quick, direct Android OS updates too.
Option 3: Samsung Galaxy S3. This is a monster phone, the only thing that concerns me is the size of the phone, especially once a protective cover has been added to it. I can be a little bit reckless and would prefer to keep a cover on it. The specs on this are insane, however the price is around $470 (for 32gb) and I am very hesitant to root the phone this time round. I am also not the biggest fan of touchwiz.
I have also kept in mind that the prices of SGS3 and the GNex are likely to drop after the new phones are unveiled. I am really looking for experiences that people have with these two phones as well. Complaints and recommendations would be great!
Cheers

Re: option 3 - The SGS3 is no bigger physically than the Nexus (either LG or Samsung) so your point about it being too big is unfounded.
I'd also wait and see what the LGN4 is like, even though I am not a fan of LGs quality control (worse than Samsung TBH).

I bought my Gnex very recently, was hesitating with SGS3 and the 2 things that made me chose Gnex over SGS3 are :
- price (well i sometimes act rational)
- that awful glossy plastic of SGS3
I'll definitively have a look at LGN4 but if I go on being reasonable, I'll keep my Gnex and buy a Nexus tab instead...
I would get the galaxy nexus again. I personally love this phone so much and don't care that its getting out dated. I see myself using it for at least the next year (just got it a month ago from the play store). But that being said I would hold out if possible as the price may drop when the new nexus hits.

Get the Note 2.. awesome battery life and great screen

Wait for the LG Nexus! Its pretty much confirmed. Just gotta wait for it to be released to see pricing etc.
go for gnexus i have nexus s before now is all more smooth and cool screen
Thanks all for your replies.
I will wait til next Monday to see what Android bring out.
EDIT: If the LG Nexus is revealed as expected with all the rumoured specs, should I be worried that the battery is not replaceable? I've seen so many people with iPhone battery issues but then again this isn't Apple.
I don't think you will have much issues with your battery. I have never had any issues with my battery's on any of my phones (including gnex, dinc, and gs3). The only thing I would be worried about with the battery is if the phone locks up you can't pull the battery, but I am pretty sure you can hard reset it with volume + power.

Hmm thanks. Hopefully the phone is reasonably priced to buy unlocked!
I'm planning on getting the GNex very soon. I could care less about outdated hardware, as I've spent the last two years on a KIN device (A weird pre-Windows-Phone Windows Phone) and an LG EnV3. The GNex has the added benefit of always getting immediate OTA updates, and when the time comes (And it will come... ) to start playing, I know I have a fabulous development community to immerse myself in and hopefully contribute to. The user experience ALWAYS outweighs an edge in hardware.
Also, price is a huge deal for me, as I'm on a student budget. I can't run around and drop $200-300 on some shiny new toy that came out, when I drop similar moneys on a monthly basis to get to school and back. So yes, the fact that I can get a LTE Galaxy Nexus for $30 off of Amazon and continue my Verizon contract is a fairly big selling point for me.
That being said, if Verizon were to get the new Nexus device and it happened to be reasonably cheap (Say, $100 or below) then I would likely shell out for that. However, those chances are slim to none, so I reckon I'm safe.
Hope this helps.
