Face recognition is more of a gizmo than a real feature
Mediocre speakerphone
It's very difficult to find flaws with the Samsung Galaxy Nexus. The design will be too big for some people
And the large screen also has an impact on battery life. That aside
There are very few chinks in its armour.
Alert bug sets the phone to silent over a 2G network
Not a design revolution
Poor battery life
Mediocre camera
Ice Cream Sandwich has eliminated some of Android's learning curve in some aspects
Without a doubt, the Galaxy Nexus is the best Android phone I've used to date. It's quick, works almost flawlessly and has pretty decent battery life to boot. It is a large, beautiful device with a fantastic display. I wasn't impressed with the camera, bu...
While the Galaxy Nexus is a great phone, and does many things better than the iPhone 4S, it isn't perfect. There are still a number of things the iPhone 4S does better than the Galaxy Nexus. Stay tuned for a followup of reasons I think the iPhone 4S is be...
The combination of beautiful hardware, innovative design, and software has made the Galaxy Nexus one of the first Android devices to feel “complete.” There have been few times over the last two years that I reviewed a phone and felt 100% confident in ...
Much like two suped-up sport cars racing against one another towards the finish line, it’s another classic case of coming down to the wire as these two beastly smartphones come up nearly close to one another at the end. As we’ve seen, they perform ver...
We really like the Samsung Galaxy Nexus, and we find almost everything about it to be neat. The design is terrific and the Android 4.0 Operating System works great. Some did complain about crashes and reboots, but we experienced none of that. Others say t...
With thunderstorms of anticipation surrounding this device and a stack of specifications that didn’t seem to be all that much of a jump from the current top tier of smartphone devices in the market already, I was skeptical that this Nexus would impres...
It pains me to do this, but I'm not giving the Samsung Galaxy Nexus an Editor's Choice—even though I think Android phone buyers should seek out the Ice Cream Sandwich OS. The problem is that the Droid RAZR is just a better phone. Even though it has a lowe...
First phone with Android 4.0, Gorgeous 4.65 inch Super AMOLED Contour Display (1280 x 720), 1.2GHz dual-core processor and 1GB RAM, 4G LTE connectivity
No microSD card slot, No support for Google Wallet out of the box (but it is installable)
As the first phone to ship with Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich, the Galaxy Nexus is definitely attracting a lot of attention. The phone itself offers a mostly "pure" Android experience without a lot of bloatware, which is a good thing. We also appreciate...
The hardware is great, the screen is beautiful, and it's the only phone that won't be saddled with OEM skins and waiting for updates.The difference between Ice Cream Sandwich and Gingerbread cannot be overstated - it's a huge upgrade. Android is no lon...
Abstract: I originally reviewed the international version of the Galaxy Nexus, but I've been using the Verizon one—with LTE!—for about a week now, so our review is updated accordingly. (Check it out right here)The long-awaited, much-hyped, Android 4.0 flagship is h...
