Nexus accessories

I just got my nexus today and I am looking for accessories. Are all galaxy nexus accessories the same or do I need to find one for my carrier specific ones?

Yes, Sprint actually carries the Otterbox. I think they were designed for the Verizon variant, which is the same dimensions as the Sprint version.

Did you order it directly from Google? If so, when did you order it?

Verizon's Galaxy S3 vs G-Nexus(which is better?)

So i decided to a Comparison/ vs video of the verizon GS3 vs Verizon G-Nexus... you may or may not agree with this video, non-the less im interested in hearing what you have to say... tell me whether im wrong or right? let me hear your side of the story

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
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda app-developers app

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.

Touchwiz makes it look better. Put cm10 on both. Identical
Sent from a G-Nex

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...

Pure hardware GS3 being a pure Google phone GNexus

I agree. I just looked at one the other day...crazy. The colors look more vibrant, and even the res looks better.

Galaxy Nexus, I love pure android.

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

"With Google" was a prototype. I prefer the nexus logo.

Looks fairly similar to the current nexus

Dealbreaker will be the notification light and price of course. Let's do this
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda app-developers app

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.

Yes, lets use metal so I can have dents in my phone...

can't they make it even thinner? It looked so much like nexus, even with improved cpu it won't make it any smoother.

Dents is overrated. I'm not using them and my phone is running well.

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.

headphone jack on the top? pooof mind bloooooown!

Its like a fat Galaxy Nexus, the current GN looks much cooler, but with the specs of the LG N4 you can forgive it

You can't. Maybe on ebay but you have to ask if it's worth the extortion people are asking for them.
