Your right about the display being better on the gs3 I don't know why Samsung didn't put the same one on the galaxy nexus but if my nexus isn't next to a gs3 then I think my screen is great

Your right... the only thing that boggles my mind is that ... they both have the same screen technically... so I don't know how the GS3 looks better

I also think it's a different screen and of course wanted to put the best displays on there own Samsung branded phones. The note also has a better screen than my galaxy nexus

Surprised?
Either way, Google didn't want bleeding edge anything in any of the Nexus phones.
Its like comparing Ferrari and BMW, both are awesome, but.. And Nexus is more than 200$ cheaper, so.

Maybe Google should start looking in developing their own hardware instead of depending on another company

That'd anger a lot of OEMs.
And put Google in the patent crossfire I'm sure they would like to stay out of.

I thought the Gnex and S3 had the same exact display? Gnex has higher ppi as well. But some reason the S3's does look brighter...

I'm coming in a bit late here but I have both and am obviously on the nexus due to loving pure droid plus so much more dev support the bootloader was just unlocked on the sgs3 so roms and such are slim pickings at the moment either way though I love this nexus

All of the ROMs are the best for somebody. You just have to find out which one is best for you. It's a DIY project by nature.

No ones really sure if there is but he can upgrade his HTC evo for a Gnex for like 100$ so I told him go for it

Because I can get the old one for 99 bucks and the new nexus is sure to be over 500 dollars and being as I am a single dad in limited income I can deal w the old one but thanks I didn't know a new one was even comming out lol

This is true
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using Tapatalk 2
well, yeah, that's what I feel like writing, because it's such a pointless question. you want to know what people use more? check number of pages of every rom thread and you'll know what most people are using. same with kernels. then read those threads, get the device, and enjoy flashing from day 1 you get the device, already knowing before hand what is it that you can expect (approximately, since, most of all, every device is different) from X release of X rom or kernel.
not to mention that must be there like lot's of threads on this theme, and that's it's a rather subjective/personal one.

Dealbreaker will be the notification light and price of course. Let's do this

What do you mean notification light being a deal breaker? It was confirmed to have one weeks ago and if you don't want it, just disable it?
A notification light is far from anything that could deal break me.

Metal was so 2009. With newer, lighter and tougher materials like carbon fiber, you aren't going to see many more phones with any type of metal in them. Yes, regular "plastic" can have a cheap feel. But there are lots of newer process we are seeing on these materials that can give it a high quality look and even better feel than metal. Even so, I don't think the Nexus 4 displays much of a high quality look to it. My guess is Google is trying to keep the costs down to make it affordable in the Play Store.
