Pretty Darn Good

I received this phone on 4/20, and I already love it. The size is a tad big, but I'll get used to it. The screen is great, and watching YouTube HD on this phone is a real joy. If you get this phone, you should really sign up for Google Wallet.
Call quality is good as is the signal strength.
Samsung really should have included the 2100 mAh battery as standard.
Another great installment in the successful Galaxy Phone family

The Nexus S and the Galaxy Nexus are the two best Android devices I've owned. I've also owned a Samsung Epic 4G, which was my first Android/Samsung Phone, and that was an incredibly smooth experience as well. The screens are always the best on the market, the audio is usually great too. The build quality is definitely good, and although a bit too plastic at times, it is always sturdy *and* light(which couldn't be achieved with bulky parts). I would always recommend Samsung devices to anyone, however-if you prefer a heavy-duty, rough-resistant device, Samsung *may* not be for you. I've dropped my devices and they have never, *ever* broken. To me, they are lightweight, thin, and of very high quality, so I will always buy Samsung smartphones.
BEST PHONE I'VE OWNED! EVERYTHING SEEMS GOOD, THE BATTERY IS STILL A LITTLE WEAK AND THE SPEAKER FOR SPEAKER PHONE IS A LITTLE WEAK BUT OTHER THAN THAT I AM VERY PLEASED.
This is huge jump for me, from Samsung i730 Windows Mobile 5, to Nexus on Verizon, running ICS.
Battery life on old i730 was a day maybe, with tiny screen, while Nexus will do a day or two with this huge AMOLED HD screen, so I'm not complaining....though brother on iPhone thinks Android phones have battery issues....I don't agree....any device with big display will eat power, regardless of OS.
I notice some delay, even with this dual-core CPU, when typing messages....very surprised at that.
Also, even with ALL volume sliders up to max, can't hear this thing at all from "speaker"...but fine on earphones. Can an OS update fix this? I've heard other Nexus users complain the same....can't hear ringtones or other notices unless sitting next to phone!
Pros: Bright display
Cons: can't hear it at all :(
I would recommend this to a friend!

Absolutely love my Galaxy Nexus! It's lightning fast and is everything I could hope for. My only complaints are that it only has a 5mp camera and no FM radio. No biggie though, camera works just fine and I downloaded Tune-in Radio from the Play Store.
This is the best phone I've owned. Android 4.0 is amazing and build quality is solid. The battery life is ok but the extra battery with wall charger fixes the need to charge. Great job samsung I will be buying again.
