@TheSYRN The GSM version is penta-band so will work on almost all networks world wide and supports up to HSPA + but in some parts of the world you would have to buy an unlocked version at full price.
Seriously WHO EDITS THESE VIDEOS!? There is always an awkward pause on every video, sometimes short like on this video at 0:06 and sometimes longer!...
Have this a try, I didn't get the black blotches. Maybe it's an ICS bug or the Nexus has a rendering problem. But it is slow. Sticking to stock on my SGS2
Not rly... Google always says its the best/fastest browser... I like the Design/Layout of FF more, thats why for me FF is the best.
Fastest? Well... The average guy does not have that fast internet, that he really notices big difference between those 2 browsers... Even I dont notice with VDSL50 (~7 MB/s Down and ~1,5 MB/s Upload) big differences when I compare Chrome and FF... Only if I compare those 2 with IE I notice a (big) difference... But thats my opinion
Firefox 9 on android is pointless. It doesn't have flash suport. I'll just stick to the stock browse, it has flash. Flash is very important no matter what apple and their fanboys say.
I think you said "contacts" instead of "bookmarks"
"[W]ebsites make their living off of [ads]" Hahahaha. Well they should make their living off of selling/providing good service/products rather than off of "forcing" you to see/watch/ignore stuff you don't care about. Especially on this day and age, don't they get that people can just find what they want on their own and not from some annoying ad? Who clicks on those things anymore. LOL. Anyway, a bit off topic; Firefox 9 seems tight.
the stock browser is not a chromium based browser its a safari based browser as are all the other third party android browsers except for firefox. so quit calling it the chrome browser...
& it would have probably been worth mentioning that adobes flash player cannot run on it because of this... flash is a safari plugin that has been ported to other browsers that allow plugins but since html5 came out most development has stopped... & ios does not allow third party plugins to run on its system...
Firefox for Android has a ton of issues. Sonetimes when I exit and later on starts it up again, the phone shows a random page from the previous session, even though Ive set it to start on a blank page. It also crash a lot. The scrolling is also painfully slow at times. Id recomend Dolphin HD browser until Firefox is better.
yay... adblock for smartphone, about fucking time.. i hate ads

If Google Inc is in partnership with the Android platform, why haven't they made a Google Chrome browser for Android?
Great review by the way, I'll have to give Firefox 9 a try!

Google Chrome is better on Desktop and on Mobile. Besides, this is Google's OS so of course there own browser is going to function better.
If you did a comparison I bet Chrome would do so much better.
