Would you give your Galaxy Nexus away for a Galaxy S 3 if you had the chance to?
I want some honest opinions..
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using Tapatalk 2
No.
Probably not, mainly because the European S3 won't get 3G on T-Mobile.

Nope!
Love my Pure Google Nexus...and the "possibility" of getting updates quicker than phones with carrier crap on them, I'll keep my Nexus; Thank You Very Much! LoL
Also, with the available ports of all the SGS3 apps...can't get any better than this!
Not a chance. Updates straight from Google and no capacitive / physical buttons are too good to pass up. Also, Paranoid Android isn't on the GSIII

Yes if:
-Its the version that's compatible with AWS band
-AOKP becomes available for it

If I do get it.. It would be with Vodafone Australia GSM no 4G. Although I love my Galaxy Nexus (too much) its starting to get outdated, spec wise.
Also, if I do get it.. I'll give the Nexus to my dad, so I can get it back whenever.. And I'd be able to upgrade in December just in time for the next Nexus.
I'm currently running the latest MIUI on my rooted Galaxy Nexus, so I'm not really into high levels of customization, And although I'm not a fan of the Galaxy S 3 design, I think they did a pretty good job software wise. And the fact that it's already been rooted before release gives it a bright start in the development field.
What do you guys think now?

No. I would for a CDMA/LTE Galaxy Note though. Go figure ...

Of course! I'd sell the S3, make profit, and buy a newer Nexus
Seriously, GNX is very fast, SUPER easy to flash/manage (My 9100G SGS2 is a nightmare), and STABLE!! Why switch???
I have the urge to try new phones.. In the past 6 months I've changed 5 phones.. But I loved the Galaxy Nexus the most...
I'm definitely going to get the next Nexus.. So why not try out the GS3 now?

I wasn't able to watch the Google I/O yesterday so I decided to search the internet but couldn't find my answer.
Will we see 5 Nexus devices announced this October like the rumor suggested or is it unlikely?

You mean like a new nexus phone?
Yes sir.
Rumors running around the internet are that google will release 5 Nexus devices each from different manufacturers.
For example, one from Samsung, another from HTC, etc.
I want to know if google said anything about this during the Google I/O yesterday.

Not sure if they said something about 5 new phones, but they said, they are trying to fix the android version fragmentation problem.
Nope, wasn't mentioned. We'll most likely hear about it later in the year
Alright, thanks

I was hoping for an announcement too. Also when the price of the Galaxy Nexus was brought down to 350$ I was expecting something.
My old N1 is dying on me! Need a new Nexus phone!
The rumor was up to 5 Nexus "Devices", not necessarily phones.
They already have the Nexus 7 and Nexus Q, and if you include the Galaxy Nexus, that's 3 Nexus "Devices" that they are selling through the Play Store.

Good point! Wait for 2 more devices! Hoping for a phone! or even a Nexus 10!
Personally I hope they stick with the 1/year strategy. Makes them feel more special. Having multiple Nexuses (Nexii?) makes it seem like they're gonna go the Galaxy route and literally slap the Nexus name on anything that connects to facebook
Unlimited nexus
How about nexus certified. You get stock rom alternative for these devices and faster update?

Most probably they'll go the Apple route. A tablet and a phone alternating every 6 months, with one major version upgrade a year.
So we'll probably get a new Nexus phone on 4.2+ Jellybean this late fall/winter and one or two other Nexus devices

S3! Lol. The note is bigger than the S3 but I'm more than happy with the size and capability with my S3.
Its a tough choice. My buddy as an att note and it is really cool. Definitely an attention getter. But the s3 is going to be top dog for a while and should have some awesome development for it. Check both out and get the one that fits you best.
Sent from my SGH-T989 using xda premium
For me, the S3 isn't enough to leave my S2, especially with the price drop of the GNex AND the new nexus devices that will be released shortly, AND the other new phones that will be released shortly as well.
The TMo Note? That depends. Is it based on the Note 2 that will he released shortly, or is it based on the previous Note, putting it behind in rom development and basically another S2 type situation?
The TMo S2 was released so late that development was very, very slow and I see the TMo Note possibly having the same problem.
I DO like the Note, and would have gotten it in Feb had it been available on TMo then. But 5 months later? I'm gonna wait and see what else is coming along.

Would the Gnex be a good choice out of contract? I have to replace my samsung galaxy s2 because it had a carrier block from Tmobile (bought from craigslist). I just can't shell out >$600 but the Gnex is pretty cheap relatively.

The GNex is a great deal right now. I'm debating getting it as well, but am trying to hold off to see what the Nexus line is going to be like this year. The price will either stay steady, or continue to go down, so there is no drawback to waiting (unless you wait until a point where it's no longer made and out of stock, that is).
The only real drawbacks are it's last years Nexus, with new models a few months away, and the lack of SD card expansion (Google seems to have done away with that on their developer phones, but we'll see if that continues with the next series of Nexus phones).
However, it's guaranteed to get Jellybean (next month, confirmed), and will most likely get next year's update as well.
BTW, I'm only talking about the GSM GNexus. I don't even consider the Verizon version a Nexus device.

Well I thought about the Gnex for a while and decided that I wouldn't ever get it. I mean sure its got the curved and high resolution display, but its lacking key features like a micro SD card. And in actuality it will be more expensive for me to get the Gnex. So...I'm most likely going to go with the Galaxy S III but thanks for the suggestions!

I for one am going to wait til sept-oct too see the note 2 with a 5.5 screen. Which is also around the iphone 5 is set to release which will also means other goodies samsung and other companies will release to go head to head with it. I see no real reason to upgrade now and then want to upgrade again in just a few months, that's unless you have the money to burn like that.

Simply put, Verizon got their dirty paws on it. Came without Wallet (although it was able to be sideloaded), had some Verizon bloatware, and updates have been a nightmare for users (took months after ICS updates were released for Verizon GNex users to receive them). In fact, Google has since dropped support for it as a Nexus device (CDMA is a dead technology).

I have a Galaxy S3 in the mail from Tmobile right now, got it for under $200. Thinking of selling it and getting the Nexus unlocked from google. Now, I know that the Nexus's hardware is a bit behind the S3, what are some other differences in both phones? I'd like to hear it from people on here that actually used the phones and not some BS reviews on the net.
What would you do?
Thanks everyone.
I would keep the s3. I expect the S3 will be relevant a lot longer than the Nexus.

The Galaxy Nexus could possibly as well receive official updates for at least the next 2 versions of Android. I don't think we can say that about the GS3.
For me its all about the latest greatest software. Hardware is much of a muchness. I want the latest versions of android first, so I got the nexus.
Both are great devices though.

Of course you realize you will have to unlock it if you want to sell it to most people, will lose the warranty and T-Mobile may or may not detect the change in phones on a plan where they more or less own that phone until the contract is up. Right?
If the GS3 is already coming, I probably would just hold onto it, that's just me.
The resell value will be high probably around the time the next real Nexus comes out, then make your move.

i saw on ebay that the S3's for Tmobile sell for at least double what i paid for mine. still locked to tmobile. not clear on your other points.
is it possible to put vanilla android like on the nexus on the S3? if so then i'll stick with the S3
Yes you can load aosp ROM or cm10 ROM on the sgs3.
I have both and love both but if your already getting a g3 then stick with it.

You're gonna flash Custom Roms anyway right? Then faster updates don't really matter that much

TMO has no say on which phone he has to use. He pays the subsidized price which is recouped over the length of the contract. His rate plan remains independent of his device. As far as warranty, if you're able to root then you should be able to unroot and relock your bootloader (there are ways to reset your flash count as well). Resale value will be best though if it is carrier unlocked

WRONG...
not all the components have open source drivers so very frequently you end up needing to wait for source ( or stock rather) to be realeased in order for much development to occur.

no, i was actually looking to put complete stock android on it. like on the gnex. i'm not into roms that much. i have a G2 right now and its completely stock and i like it like that. so from my understanding i won't be able to do that, so i guess i'll have to sell the S3 (unlock it first with a code from TMO) and then get the gnex.
are there really any huge differences with the hardware between gnex and s3? like am i going to really miss out on something that s3 has that gnex doesn't?
Big main differences is better processors, more memory and better camera... outside of that not much
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I747 using Tapatalk 2
I have the Gnex, my husband has the T-Mo S3. I have no regrets passing on the S3. It's a nice phone, but I have stock android with no fuss whatsoever. The Gnex software outperforms the S3 without a doubt (he's just got stock TW, so I'm not sure how it would do with a nice AOSP rom)
I agree with whoever mentioned the driver issue, the GTab got ICS 9 months later, and until it was released, no ROMs had cameras working. I'll take the Nexus over anything any day of the week.
I was close to getting the gs3 as well. Specs are fine but the development community is so much better. Yes we have cm10 for the s3 but how long will it take to get the next version. You trade some things away when you pick a phone. I will trade those specs for the best softwear and best dev community

Different story with Android vs Apple. The entirety of Apple's lineup doesn't even equal one year's worth of Android releases, so there are far fewer device builds to write for. In addition Apple is completely in charge of the manufacturing process for their products, whereas Google is only partially in control of one. Even with all of that nonsense though, the manufacturer skins and carrier testing are the major bottlenecks for the pace of update releases.

Still that's no excuse... the base is should be upgradable just like in windows phone series... Google needs to stop custom market skins like sense ui and touchwiz or make parts of them optional like how go launcher go dialer go SMS all are. Also android hardware should be all the same.. let the device look different by the external design such as glass plastic metal and such...

It came down to me having to pay past bills to att and T-Mobile... Verizon was no deposit...
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using Tapatalk 2
Here are your two reasons:
1) Google releases source code, and relies on an open platform. CDMA is NOT an open platform. So verizon/sprint/etc get to dictate terms.
2) Verizon HATES open platforms/being told what to do. This is why you see the CDMA GNex not getting timely updates (vzw/sprint has to OK it) and also why you see vzw blocking Google wallet, adding in their apps.
If you want ALL carriers to stop their bull****, stop buying their phones and start buying open platforms such as unlocked gsm nexus phones. The carriers make a lot of money off their subsidized phones and accompanying plans. Remove their power, and they'll listen.
Also, the reason apple can update the way they do is: a "unified" userbase, and not having an open platform.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using Tapatalk 2
What I'm sick of is people buying CDMA phones then crying when they don't get the update immediately. You knew this was coming when you bought the phone. Delayed CDMA updates have happened before, it's nothing new. It's like complaining about waiting in line at the DMV.
I am upset because I was under the impression that a Galaxy Nexus was a true nexus and I was sure I would get the full experience. I wish I would have known the CDMA GNex wouldn't be as supported as the GSM GNex

Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using Tapatalk 2
Have you read up on this at all? Basically the drivers for the CDMA technology is what holds the process up.. that's a carrier problem. GSM is an open standard where CDMA is closed, so carriers have to get involved with Google to make sure updates work the way they're supposed to. ESPECIALLY with LTE.. which is why there's no LTE on the Nexus 4. Your best bet is T-Mobile. I'm fine with that. T-Mob is actually pretty good in my area and HSPA+ is waaaaaaaaaaaaaay better than Sprints crappy 3G and non-existant LTE service.
All that to say. No it's not Google's fault. They ARE handling the updates OTA where they can.. but Sprint and Verizon have to lock down the radio's and what not. I actually applaud Google for going the route they did with the Nexus 4. It's a philosophy I'm willing to support with my dollars. I'm willing to give up LTE ... which i technically don't have now anyway.

The GSM GN only ran at $350 plus tax which is a very reasonable price considering you're not going to be tied to contracts and are free to switch from carrier to carrier with the same device.
