Verdict

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.

Gotta wait till the 29th for me to make any decisions, but I'm not gonna lie, the lack of microSD slots these days is really starting to tick me off.

yup I would do that but no sdcards slot makes me say hell no.
But hopefully they release more than 1 nexus, I would few more days.

Well, if you already have the nexus, no SD cards are something that you are uses too. That's probably one of the biggest adjustments I'd say.
Personally, I prefer SD card support.

Is it worth it? Which would be better? Nexus 4 or Note II?

If you don't care about having the latest version of android I say note II. if money and updates are a concern then Nexus 4 cannot be beaten. Galaxy Nexus is still very capable though.

Maybe go for the note ii, but i wouldn't swap it for the nexus 4 with no removable battery or lte radio

If I were to choose right now I would go with note ii, the battery life, bigger screen and LTE are all pluses. Although I'm waiting until s4/note3

Since i am mostly on wifi, i don't care about lte. Software updates, unlock-ability, and the dev community would tip the scales toward the nexus 4 if i was in the market.

I have a work galaxy Nexus which was my primary phone. My personal phone was a iphone 4. I dropped the iphone and got a note 2. I'm a flashaholic who spent many of days flashing a new rom on my Nexus. I always said I'd never get anything other than a Nexus.
I'm in love with my note 2. I barely ever pick up my Nexus unless I need to answer the phone or use it for tethering.
Just fyi the note 2 has a Huge dev community. Tw roms and aosp roms are dropped on a daily basis..
I can't speak for the Nexus 4 but you can't go wrong with the note 2.

I say its not worth it. The GNex isn't that out of date hardware wise and definitely not software wise. I personally wouldn't as there isn't much the 2 phones can do that the GNex can't. Cheers.

Should I buy the Galaxy Nexus?

Hey guys,
I am looking at getting a new phone and my requirements were:
1GB RAM
4.3+ inch screen
720p display.
The Galaxy Nexus caught my eye as it has all those things. I don't have a huge budget (£150, or €175, $225)But I am slightly concerned. Firstly because it is an old piece of kit. Now, that doesn't bother me if it performs well and gets the latest updates, but that's what I am worried about. Secondly because of Dev Support. I need a phone that will be supported for at least a year.
Please tell me what I should do. I am willing to buy a used device. If you think I should get something else, please let me know as to what device you are thinking.
Thanks!

Don't buy this phone.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using Xparent Skyblue Tapatalk 2

Extend your budget go for a Nexus 4 or maybe wait for the next Nexus. Galaxy Nexus is a great phone but let's face it, it's been around for a while... And I doubt if it'll get official updates for the coming year
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda premium

If you want it, then buy an extended battery with it and IMHO one should also buy the charging port flex board which may stop working anytime.
Whether or not it gets official updates, it will receive the custom ROMs. But then again why would you go for a 2 year old product?
Get the n4 or the n5 when it releases

Get the s4 or wait for new nexus at end of year.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda premium

Go for nexus 4.....though I'm not saying that Galaxy Nexus is not good, but it has now become somewhat old and won't get support from Google as Nexus 4 will get. Though you always will have support from the custom ROMs....but not stock ROM from Google itself.....so go for Nexus 4 rather than GN.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using XDA Premium HD app

Screw n4 and its iphone-ish glass back

Okay, popular opinion suggests that the N4 is my choice. Is there anywhere I can pick it up within my budget?
Thanks!

The n4 is old as well, considering the new nexus will be out in a few months, the n4 has been a blunder from day one an forgotten about due to its terrible launch an unavailability, so people just decided to boycott it an skip it altogether, lg have even said themselves it wasn't on the list of priorities to get that phone out, I don't think google would bother asking lg a second time to make another nexus with that kind of poor effort or attitude.

So here I am.
I have been watching a load of videos comparing it to Samsung flagships, HTC flagships and some weird devices made by a fruit company. The hardware has EVERYTHING I want for my upgrade. Almost double every spec to my current phone. My only concern is updates. Does this device have 4.2.2 Officially? Will there be 4.3 and 5.0 for it unofficially, if not officially? I need it to last for a year.
If you can answer my questions, I will be extremely grateful. My other option is the Xperia S, but it costs too much, bigger camera then I need and no official 4.1
Thanks Again!

Android 4.2.2 is officialy suported on the galaxy nexus and 4.3 will normally be that too but for 5.0 nobody knows.
And yeah I love the phone and it's getting old but it is still a good phone

I bought mine a few months ago for exactly the same as your budget and I am more than happy with it yes it's old but not everyone can afford to get a nexus 4 and to be honest it's a bit to much like the iPhone with it's glass back the gnex gives you plenty of bang for your buck IMO

If you don't need the good cam, HDMI and so on, go for a GNex. As far as dev support's concerned there's no need to be worried, even the Google Nexus S (maybe the WFS too?) will get Android 5 (unofficially).

Depending on provider be careful which S4 you get.... I have the Verizon S4 and the latest OTA has the device locked down like fort Knox.
No custom roms or root at the moment. I would say the Moto X (which I also have) is very similar to your gnex.
You may want to hold out and see what drops in the coming months.

I agree with bajasur. Just wait another month or so and see what's coming out. We might still have hope of the nexus 5 on Verizon. I'm just waiting on the word from Google to see what the plans for the N5 are going to be. If not I would go with the S4 as my next phone. The moto x looks nice and it is close to vanilla android but the camera really disappoints me. I would say check both forums and see what they have going on there.

N5 would be nice on vzw I love the screen on the s4 its phenominal i have a n4 for my work phone and its "ok" im not allowed to root or rom it though.

If the next Nexus doesn't come to big red, I'm going for the Note 3. I love my Gnex and I love the nexus community, but it's starting to get long in the tooth.
Will be a great hand-me-down to my girlfriend, though! Her LG Lucid makes me throw up in my mouth when I use it.

My Galaxy Nexus died, so I opted for the S4 Google Play Edition. It's as close as you can get to a Nexus phone that has a removable battery and microSD card slot. I'm really pleased with the choice. I am keeping it stock, though I've rooted it, unlocked the bootloader, and installed CWM recovery.
If I were in your position, I'd probably wait to see what the Nexus 5 looks like before buying a new phone. But if you want to act now, the S4 GPE is a great phone.

Nexus 5 will be faster than any android devices except for the ones who share the same class of SoC !

Nexus 5 has already been said to out perform the S4 an note 3 plus every other android device so you may want to wait for tha, the S5 will be out early 2014 anyway.

I'm going to grab the Nexus 5. I'd go for the Moto X but it's battery life and CPU won't give it the two year lifespan I need from a phone.

Another vote for Moto X. But I'd wait to see what the next nexus looks like.
