This phone is so easy to use!
on January 8, 2012
Posted by: TexansRock

My only complaint initially was about the battery. When using all of the features - GPS, WiFi, etc. - the battery drains very quickly. I found an app that has helped immensely. The easy battery saver app helps to make things dormant when they aren't being used and helps the battery last throughout the day and into the night. Since finding that app, I have no complaints!
Pros: Built-in speakers, Bright display, Realistic color, Lightweight
I would recommend this to a friend!

So far so good. The phone itself is awesome, the pictures are not so hot when taking them quickly but overall so far so good. NFC is fantastic and the fact that I will get Google updates day 1 is very important to me. Data has been spotty but hopefully Sammy and Verizion will work that out
Pros: Bright display, Lightweight, nexus device, fast processing, 32g internal, nfc
Cons: external speaker, quick pics but they are all blurry, data connection weak
I would recommend this to a friend!

Verizon Galaxy Nexus

This is an awesome phone performance wise, but i miss having a micro SD card slot and the lack of a micro HDMI port also the speaker volume for calls/ringtones is not that loud even all the way up... If you can live without those then this phone is for you... Ice Cream Sandwich ICS 4.0.2 takes some time to get used to and to navigate
Pros: Built-in speakers, Bright display, Lightweight, ics 4.0.2
Cons: no hdmi, no micro sd slot, external speaker volume not loud enough
I would recommend this to a friend!

"The only thing I ever stand in line for is a slightly better cell phone." - Homer Simpson
I'd like to tell you the things I like and dislike about this phone (hardware only) in order to help Samsung build a better product in the future.
Likes:
- Charge port and headphone jack together on same side - prevents entanglement when using both, as I do in my car.
- LED indicator - the messenger I use allows me to customize LED blink rate and color - I love that my G-Nex can utilize this option.
- Thin, light profile
- Easy to remove battery cover
- Display

Dislikes:
- No removable memory - this was a bad decision, I prefer to have a micro SD card. Plus, in order to transfer files I've noticed I need to put the phone into airplane mode and even then it's an arduous task.
- Power button on side - I'm always turning music/ringer up and down by accident because when held, the power button and volume rocker are easy to press at same time. Please keep the power button on top like most other smartphones.
- Speaker - could be better. My HTC Incredible had the best external speaker I've ever heard. It had good sound at all volumes for speech and music. The G-Nex needs to be turned up high in order to hear on speakerphone.

Overall, I'm enjoying my G-Nex, but if HTC were to come out with an Incredible 3, I may be tempted to buy it as the original Incredible was one of the best made phones I've owned. Hopefully Samsung will take my comments into consideration when designing future mobile products.
Thank you for your time and consideration.
Pros: Bright display, Lightweight, large bright led indicator, charge port same side as headphone jack
Cons: Did not meet expectations, speaker, power button on side, no microsd card
I would recommend this to a friend!
