Hello everyone, making the switch today from my iPhone to the Galaxy Nexus and would like to ask everyone's verdict on it? Would you make that switch or hold off for the GS3? I see dev is great for this phone and I love the design. Any opinions would be great.

Keep this phone until you absolutely must switch because this phone will have Dev support til the end of time.

Best Phone I've ever had. Would wait one month if you can. Than look what the new Nexus has up. S3 I don't like for it's software. If you root it, I think it's an good alternative.

If I was you I would switch to the Nexus.
The S3 is a great phone but it is very similar to the Nexus and the Nexus is going to be cheaper. Personally I like the look of the Nexus a little better too but that's just my personal preference. Also, I would be willing to bet that the Nexus will have dev support way longer than the S3 (even though the S3 came out several moths after the Nexus).
I would either go with the gn or wait for the new one.

Are you buying the Play store version (GSM Unlocked? for $349? If so, I'd say go ahead and get it now. If you're upgrading on your phone plan then I'd wait a month to see what the next Nexus devices may bring to the table.
This phone most definitely will be getting the next android version and the dev support is fantastic. The hardware is still very very good for being nearly 1 year old now - it still competes with the currently release high-end devices.
as of today go for nexus... until s3 get JB then you can compare it and decide which one you want
You're asking this question at the wrong place. Of course everyone here's answer is going to be "Galaxy Nexus".
If you want an un-biased answer, go to a neutral forum. Or a different forum entirely, like a gaming forum or something. You may get realistic answers.
With that said, go with the Nexus. I had iPhone for 5 months. I felt like I had a phone that could only do calls and texts. Nothing like the machines that are Android.
I knew I would get an answer like that eventually. I've asked on multiple forums on multiple sites the verdict has primarily been go with the Nexus. Which I did btw, I just wanted to hear it from the horse's mouth before I did. Thank you though

Welcome! Tell all of your iPhone having friends about how awesome it is. The more people we "convert" - the less people use iPhones - and maybe apple will start actually putting useful updates in iOS instead of trying to hammer away at Android. Enjoy the Nexus man.
Haha thanks!!! I will do, we must convert!!!

are you a tinkerer? coming from an iphone, android os is going to be a challenge in and of itself. rooting and flashing roms is whole other challenge. if you are pretty set on rooting and having all the bells and whistles afforded by mods and roms, then get the galaxy nexus. the dev support is second to none. if you are wanting to just run stock, then get the S3.
i got my wife an S3. i have phone envy. the S3 is a NICE phone. let me rephrase that, the S3 is a REALLY NICE phone. she didn't want it rooted and i didn't want to have to mess w/ her phone since i rooted the her last 2 phones and it got to be a pain upkeeping her phone with latest roms and updates. the S3 stock unrooted running Nova launcher kicks all kinds of butt. yes she gives up a few perks from not being rooted, but the S3 is a perfectly fine phone stock.
since i like running stock rooted roms, i would gladly take an S3 over a galaxy nexus. screen, radio, processor and battery life are better than the nexus. nothing against the nexus. the S3 is just a better phone. and being it was release about 7 months after the nexus, i would expect no less. and hopefully the nexus to be released in 4Q will be nicer than the S3.
tl;dr version. if you are hell bent on rooting and running custom roms, get the nexus. if just running stock or even just a stock rooted rom, get the S3.

In our house we just switched from Sprint to T-Mobile. Not wanting to be trapped into another 2 year deal, we bought the GS2 (I know you said 3) and a Galaxy Nexus. The GS2 was $299 and the GN was $349, so pretty comparable. The GN is awesome, but the GS2 camera seems to be far superior, so I would guess the GS3 is equal or better. However, software wise, nothing will beat a Nexus device. You won't go wrong with either phone, but if price and software are important to you, do yourself a favor and get the Nexus. If price is no object and you don't really care about OS updates, then the GS3 might be a better route.

Yeh still got my gs2 but to me I brows the internet and watch videos a lot so screen Res was a major thing for me, also honestly the s2 looked a little like the ip4 also had that, would pic the gn over the ip4 and the gs2 any day, I also notice less issues on the forums with this phone with the gs2 it was full of buggs lucky I just had some battery drain but that was it. Get the gn its a great phone.

I have no regrets whatsoever getting the Nexus.
The higher screen resolution is a plus for me...as I like to pick the smallest fonts possible to put more info on screen.
The Nexus feels better in hand probably due to the slight curve in design.
K before the store opens I know you guys think I jumped the gun and made my decision on one comment but it seems likea war between s2 lovers vs prime lovers and you hear so many good answers just so hard to tell who is telling the truth or they are just making up ****. also wanna say is that Im not that good with phones meaning that I I'm not going to root or put custom roms on it also is it also true that the nexus won't sync up with computer but it syncs everything automatically to a cloud kinda like icloud if? I like how easy the s2 works please help I'm messed up

meaning is the s2 easier to use than the nexus cause I payed 600 for the s2 and only have tool pay an extra 50 to get the nexus

We are always going to be behind with software. This is the Google's and Manufacturer's fault. I have the Galaxy Nexus in my hand today and I had the GS2 for 2 months already there is nothing that Galaxy Nexus has that GS2 doesn't and we have to wait for this **** manufacturer's to release updates. The GS2 is faster and more conferable in hand.
If anyone has any questions ask me I'll try to answer.

I won't go as far as to say that the Galaxy S II is the better phone. I had a Galaxy Nexus on Verizon and it was great other then a couple defects I ran into. The software on the Galaxy Nexus will most likely be better then what makes its way to the GSII and the notification led on the Nexus is the best one I have seen on any phone. The Galaxy S II has a way better camera and has been a lot more reliable.
Both are great phones. Its really hard to say which one is better.
I say your essentially buying the same phone twice. Besides ics and a few other differences they are basically the same phone.

I'm sure theirs been a long thread discussing this already. Everyone feels strongly opinionated and there is no true winner. They both have pros and cons. If I HAD to choose I would go with the Nexus hands down for the fact that its a nexus phone and development will be great. ICS seems amazing and the display as well.
There is enough hate in the world. Why can't we all get along here ...?
Oh man, you guys completely ignore the screen issue our GS2 has. If it was a good screen, had a exynos then it would be better than the nexus. International GS2 fits in that category.
Okay.. I own and love both phones and these types of threads are entirely subjective and flame prone. Holding a phone in your hand is NOT a valid explanation for why a phone is better than another. You need to have plenty of hands-on time to really know the pro's and con's of both. (And neither is immune to either.)

Man we buy the phones for $500 to $600 and we have to cry to get some software updates thats the thing. Google shouldn't relese the update till all the major manufacturers have their updates ready as well. If it goes like this we are going to get ICS end of the year, after original Galaxy s 2 i9100 gets it then we get it and that's the question if the carriers put thirty **** in there. So we looking at till September when Google will unveil the 5.0

if you read on the i9250 forum, they too have the screen problem, and their screen is 720
other than ICS which we'll get, the only other difference is the Barometer sensor
otherwise the i9250 is actually under grade, they even got a major issue with the storage and MTP, and fake sdcard to make old Apps compatible, but even so, there are still Apps that are still not compatible

Ill take external SD support, 8mp cam over the galaxy nexus anyday. This whole the nexus is better crap is dumb all it has is ics and even ics isn't that amazing i used it on the sensation for two weeks and its really good. It adds plenty of things that are pleasant and well done now on android. The bad is apps still need to be updated but the sensation outclassed the galaxy nexus with ics as it is and once we get it this phone will be above the nexus. People buy a phone and always look for something to complain about the screen issue is annoying if you notice it but I'm hoping supercurio makes a fix for us. Either way my use isn't affected except for maybe 5% of the time and even then its just not pleasant to look at. There are a handful of phones that once they have ics will make the nexus look out dated galaxy s 2, amaze 4g, rezound, razr, etc.... development is just slowed from these phones being new and because developing gingerbread might be worthless if ics is here in a couple months.

Ha-ha that's how I felt at first too but being on my second day now it's actually pretty easy. The hardest part for me was not hitting the damn home button instead of the space bar.

I'm having that problem now currently with the SG2 haha. Second day with the phone (last phone was MT4G) and every other time when hitting the space bar I hit one of the "hard" buttons on the bottom. Slowly getting used to it though.
I will say - if the Nexus had an equal or better camera than the SG2, I would probably return this and get that instead, especially as there's supposed to be a white one coming out. But I use my phone's camera A LOT, and it's an important feature for me, so the Nexus is out right there. I don't know why they'd release a 'flagship' phone with semi out-of-date specs. With iphone 4, SG2, and many others coming out with 8 megapixels, why would Google only do 5?? Anyway...
notification led on galaxy nexus is really badass too, +1 for that

Lol, well the GS2 is a vast improvement over the myTouch 4G. (I loved that phone when it first came out too, lol.)
I think the Nexus camera has a lot of software issues. It is okay but i think it will get better as Google picks up the slack. Hell they paused the latest update for reasons unknown but people have reported much better stats all around with the leaked 4.0.3 that has been lurking around. I truly believe people make a bigger deal than what is necessary about both of these phones. Why try to argue one over the other? They are both great! As i said previously, both have pro's and con's but i think either or should be enough to satisfy the vast majority of users.

.. but yeah, N1 to a GN is a HUGE upgrade. Any phone of this generation will be a huge upgrade. A caution of word though, after using Galaxy Nexus... your N1 screen will look like a joke. At least that's what GN did to me to any phone with a screen smaller than 4.5"
Hell, I went from the HTC One X to the GNex and it felt like a massive upgrade. I couldn't imagine going from N1 to GN. Do eeeet.
Get the GN and no mistake.
I'd changed my GN only with the next GN.
A big upgrade that's for sure.

Not for the same price. And S3 or One X will not receive 4.2 at the same time (including proprietary binaries). They'll receive a port eventually but by the time I already digged 4.2 completely :laugh:

GNex is a great choice... $50 vs $200 for practically the same thing. A slightly bigger screen, 2GB of RAM (which is totally unnecessary), Dual-Core (since it's from Verizon)... To me, GNex is the best deal on the market (or so it was, until the Nexus 4 came out - but lets not talk about that).
@OP
You made a fantastic choice. I love my GNex, like I said before. Trust me, your going to love it and have loads of fun toying around with it. First thing I did was Unlock the bootloader and start flashing. xD Not to mention your guaranteed future updates since it's a "Nexus" device.
Enjoy your work of art.
I have a GSM G-Nex and love it, as well as my $30 T-Mobile plan. Unfortunately for some weird family plan related reasons I may grudgingly go Verizon. The only phone I have had my eye on as of late is the Nexus 4, but that is not an option. What is a good alternative? I like big screens, and up to date software, and I usually flash custom ROMs from this wonderful site anyway. (only running stock right now because 4.2 is really nice, great on my battery).

Droid DNA, GS3, & Note 2 seem cool. Verizon G-Nex could probably be had for very cheap though. I hope I can just adjust their family plan and not have to join. I went prepaid because I had to, but now I really really don't want to go back to contract/locked-phone land!
I like the Note 2, if the bootloader gets unlocked I think I will be jumping on that one.
Honestly I wouldn't be surprised to see the Nexus 4 eventually hit VZW, but who knows.
Ended up putting off switching until my GNex died a violent death. The Moto X has been a worthy successor thus far, 3 days in.
