Galaxy Nexus first hands-on

[MrSvenhard]

@devilshand222 you honestly think it dont? sad..

[spikeman23]

It's not just a phone

[t3rree]

@devilshand222 it does

[MrMasstyle]

Question is galaxy nexus or iPhone 4s?

[susmmm]

@MrMasstyle galaxy nexus ftw.

[chi9no9]

cuando estará en México , donde lo puedo adquirir ?

[gringofxo]

The best thing that Samsung did, was take the name SAMSUNG of the front screen, BRAVO SAMSUNG, now Im thinking os buying this NEXUS

[BxVick]

Why does Google let Samsung design all there phones, the build is always terrible and cheap! They should let HTC do it!

[chr1sd26]

Really like phone but Samsung needs to make more premium feel phones. Make the phone feel like it cost...

[BabyEater9000]

@chr1sd26 agreed. also image stabilization for video mode! it's got both gyroscope and accelerometer, they should be able to achieve the same stabilization capabilities of the iphone 4s

[chltmdwp]

back looks cheap.... sexy phone nontheless!

[AppleMane1]

can wait to get this mother fucker boiii!

[austintheng]

Bought my Galaxy S2 4 months ago.. Now another even more powerful phone is out. Bigger screen display, specs, cool and awesome ice cream sandwich.. Gosh.. I'm getting the urge to change phone but nope.. Still need to stick with my S2 for the next 1yr 5 months.. Hopefully S2 will get the upgrade to Android 4.0 quick here in Singapore!! I LOVE SAMSUNG!!!

[h45oon]

hahah all of a sudden the ios looks dated go-on android

[samhyman1]

!!!!!it is not a premium built phone

[jcjr87]

I started with Android (G1), got a Vzw iPhone 4, now back on a Droid Bionic (though likely going to swap for this bad boy.) iPhone got boring. I can do more on my Android. iPhone is beautiful, simple and smooth...but frankly ICS seems set to put iOS to shame.

Former Apple Fanboy

[killblade37]

@jcjr87 I swear me and you are twins....exact same thing happened for me. I had an iPhone and i loved it but after a while...i got bored and just wanted something new. I switched to the droid bionic when it came out but most likely I'm going to swap it out for this phone

[FifaMastas]

Did he say Nexus S at the start

[spikeman23]

I hope this doesn't feel cheap.

[lovelypinkx]

i don't get why iPhone lovers come on every Galaxy Nexus video just to talk shit about it. get a life. people are watching this video to see how the phone is. it's annoying how iPhone lovers talk shit about it even before the phone is actually released. this phone seems pretty awesome and i'm considering buying this over the iPhone. just gotta wait for it to come out to really decide which one to get.

[markola]

Bill gates own an iPhone 4s!

[KeMiSTv1]

Does anyone know if Google was able to make it so when you take a video that the camera focuses in on the person talking? They showed it at Google I/O and mentioned that it would be a feature on ICS.

[eldonbusiness2]

i prefer note somehow .

[jcru40]

What a beauty! !!!!!

[MrNuttychris]

soooo cant wait till the 17th hello vodafone can i have my upgrade like NOW :L

[ShopeK15]

@aakelly20. Haha, not just because you spelled because as 'becuz', but you really dont know much about phones. I used to be an apple fanboy like you, but then I looked at other phones. I realize that there are phones 10 times faster than the iPhone, and 100 times more customizable. Don't spend your time buttering people up about apple on a non-apple video, because these people have moved past all the fake hype and realized there's better technology out there.

[mikeyiscoolable]

who else is tired of seeing this wallpaper?

[QUIKKSTAR]

Still waiting on a HTC Nexus to come back! Hate Samsuck...

[mikeyiscoolable]

@QUIKKSTAR LOL hows those qualcomm processors that htc uses?

[VegetaRulezxyz]

lol.. what is the point or purpose of the swipe to remove apps feature.. if its just removing it from your list. If i don't want it on the list.. I probably don't want it to be running in the background. How then will i even access the apps later to shut them off.. or know which apps are still on once they are off the list..?

[jayzg60]

does it feel wid ein the hand, is it too big

[aceswild81]

this or the galaxy s2 plzz get back these r the only 2 phones i want right now so plzz do suggest any thing thanks

[MrAngel2191]

@aceswild81 Obviously This One

[ghulamrashid89]

Galaxy Nexus or the Motorola Droid Razr. Thumbs up if your choice is the Galaxy Nexus

[MrAngel2191]

@ghulamrashid89 its A Hard Decision

[mikeyiscoolable]

@ghulamrashid89 have u seen engadgets review of the razr? its horrible

[YOOivansterr]

Using my moms upgrade for this phone lol :X

[mikeyiscoolable]

@YOOivansterr whata boss

[DinoKnorke]

sorry but who need UI's now? Ice Cream Sandwich is perfect *_*

[TheBlackShinigami]

I wonder how Manufactures will customize there User Interfaces with Ice Cream Sandwich. ICS uses many perks from alot of UI's

...... hmmmmm the start of something new in ICS

[TheSmartPresenter004]

How can we edit documents on Samsung Galaxy Nexus???

[TheBlackShinigami]

@TheSmartPresenter004 same way you would do it on any android phone with Polaris office or whatever program u use to make documents

[TheSmartPresenter004]

@TheBlackShinigami Polaris Office is only for TouchWiz 4.0. It's not on any Android phone. And in Samsung Galaxy Nexus, there isn't any Polaris Office. To be specific, there I couldn't find any document editing application when I saw videos of Samsung Galaxy Nexus hands-on. Then how can we do it???

[TheBlackShinigami]

@TheSmartPresenter004 actually it was pre-installed on my sensation so it can't just be for Touch Wiz 4.0 and if you want it so bad find a .apk that is compatible with your android device download it on to the sd card and download app installer from the app market it. Find it and there you go u have the program

[samerhadionline]

Nice phone, but is it as good as the iPhone 4S? I doubt it. Think the sales are going to say enough.

[cketterl78]

@samerhadionline You must have smaller hands and better eyes than me. For web browsing and netflix it's not even close: 720p on a larger screen, hdmi, I'm sold. I was shocked that apple didn't come up with something more substantial after waiting so damn long. Imagine what the iphone would be today without competition from google. I applaud it.

[TheBlackShinigami]

@samerhadionline in almost every way spec wise IMO

[optik360nerv]

Why are people under the impresion always that a headphone jack should be on the top? Is it because Apple did it so no its gospel? I for one think it is much better on the bottom. You put your phone upside down, screen facing towards your leg in your pocket. 'Amazingly' when you reach in your pocket you have your phone in your hand facing the correct way and the right way up without any wires in the way. Its logic!

[TheSmartPresenter004]

Are apps in the Android Market limited to the 16:9 aspect ratio screen like on Galaxy Tab 10.1 or can we access all the apps like the Galaxy S2?

[aakelly20]

@sds9505 The numbers you are seeing includes the crappy android phones as well. Name one phone that out sells the iPhone? u can't. becuz the only thing close is the galaxy line at 10 million compared to the iPhone at 100 million. Yes android has made great strides to compete with the iPhone mostly becuz of their cheap pricing. But NOTHING electronic will ever work as well as something made by apple. Even bill gates will tell u that.

[optik360nerv]

@aakelly20 Actually with the exception of 2009 (3GS) the best selling phones from 1998-2010 each year have been nokias

[TheSLOrs]

at what price can we buy it in europe?

[ipiotrw95]

nokia lumia!

[jjoeshaw]

Step aside Nokia, android has already taken over...

[schestervictor]

is this better thans galaxy S2??¿¿

[adamc260]

Samsung seems to be the new super power when it comes to phones!

[guyverman]

Am I the only one worried about the 3 main buttons being the screen itself?

There will be burn in...........

I hope they don't do the same to the S3's beautiful RGB screen.

[dmsp3677]

Multitask feature its amazing!

[diuleil]

they try to make money off you they will create another nexus with 8 mp after u buy this one now then they put single core haha

[diuleil]

samsung can make a faster camera than the apple 4S

[SuperInvincible14]

No the number of pixels" alone" do not count. However, combination does. it depends on pixel size and photons collected by the sensor. More pixels of course can be better, depending on the other factors. So to says it does not matter is false. moto is rolling with a better camera. And it will have the ics update soon.

[supercinos21]

@SuperInvincible14 But will it have any updates after that, that is the question.

You are guaranteed updates with the Nexus line. Makes the hardware less important, at least to me. :p

[olivierseymourdenis]

Am I the only one who noticed the guy saying Galaxy Nexus S at 0:05?

[semsemsam]

@olivierseymourdenis Am I the only one who rewinded after reading your comment?

[andy032493]

解鎖畫面還蠻像HTC SENSE 的= =

[LadyDezrok]

i was hoping for a 8MP instead of 5MP although the phone is really good.

[peepap17]

I'm an iPhone user and think I'm gonna use my upgrade for this phone if AT&T gets it. It's a jazzy sexy phone to me! The iPhone has to get kool tweaks from the jailbreak they don't have much stock on them!

[BLCKndYLLW]

Got lg thrill wana get this sexy phone 1 more day to replace phone... any ideas of how i can get???

[BLCKndYLLW]

@the android haters. Why are you watching this? Do you need to coment go i phone 4s on f'n everything. Go back to your shit phone. Thanks

[aakelly20]

@the iPhone haters. Men lie women lie but numbers don't. There is a reason why the iPhone out sells everything. Becuz no matter what its doing "it just works" - Steve jobs.

[sds9505]

@aakelly20 who lied to you, check any smartphone market share and android has nearly 50 percent of the market while iphone is at 20

[shromekhanna]

Guys, stop comparing this to the iPhone 4S, its not fair. We all know this is a complete rip-off from iPhone 5.

[jocrazi]

@shromekhanna a rip off of a phone that doesn't exist?? That makes no sense.

[shromekhanna]

@jocrazi But we all know apple are still gonna sue samsung, since they CLEARLY can't beat this phone

[stlallstar]

@shromekhanna And maybe Android should sue Apple for "stealing/copying" the notification banner...hmmm? lol

[kaliuv]

I'm buying this.

[Im2Cool4UFoeva]

I really hope htc sense can customize the shit out of android 4.0

[ygswagg111]

@Im2Cool4UFoeva why user interface on top of android slows down the os makes it lag u wont need launcers ui etc all the features are here this is so beautiful basically honeycomb but on your phone they need to make htc sense,moto blur,touch wiz all up to us if we choose to have that just make it a app in the market so we can decide if we want that i love true pure google nexus devices that get timely updates...

[MsGabriel000]

He says he has a button that makes him eggs fry,

[xxGjbbyxx]

Laggy! I have family and co-workers that testify to iPhone lag too. Style wise,... lol. One style in one phone equals that much less versatility. Imagine everyone buying the same ol 2 colors in same make and model of car choices. How special is a red or white Farrari, if everyone has one!? Inters better more versatile auto makers with many more options and possible cheaper prices.

BTW,... what if you can afford an iPhone but still choose Android. !!!DROID!!!

[aakelly20]

all u iphone haters are hilarious.... lets be honest... it is the most popular... 100 million compared to the galaxy line (10 mill) come on fellas don't be fan boys...

[XxZdarkyZxX]

@aakelly20 You're stating your statement via how much they sold? does that make the iPhone better?

No, There's a reason why Apple's iPhone sell's a lot. Just a mere a gimmick nothing more or nothing less.

Thus, Your statement is Invalid.

[MEXICANJUICE323]

I have the Tmobile galaxy s2 but im getting this one to just to have it ;)

[sompfy]

My hd2 is good enough with custom rom

[TheGr8DudeO]

I can't wait for this phone to reach Singapore so that I can play with it at the store. Would definitely buy it if I can afford!

[yukonajr]

@TheGr8DudeO Me 2! Im a Singaporean!

[TheGr8DudeO]

@yukonajr Yea! Hard to find Android fans in Singapore with iPhone domination ><

[yyz71]

For the people are saying I like galaxy s2 better blah blah blah!! Until you actually have this phone in your hand and compare it against your galaxy s2 with a uploaded video of course' Jam ur galaxy s2 up ur ASS!! Love my android though!!

[elektriksheep]

Everyone keeps saying the headphone jack is in an odd place. I think the bottom of the phone makes the most sense as it's easier to put the phone into your pocket top first not bottom first. This is something everyone else needs to follow suit on and I think it's strange it's taken so long for someone to make this obvious design decision.

[dstruct1]

Where is the menu bottom now?

[sabharwal2]

This video was released on my birthday...... Gods tellin me sumtin...... I'll take 5 =)

[drethedawn]

i like the galaxy s2 better

[FoodOnCrack]

i jsut want to be my game preformance to be maxed up :)

[mikehutty22]

Love it

[Jessejamesjj333]

If anybody who thinks apple LIEPHONE is better, go ahead and slap yourself,go dig steve jobs up and give him his belongings,and whisper it was a joke steve but nice try

[Jessejamesjj333]

Droiddd

[canoblas]

Man I don't like Samsung

[masterclef5]

Big ass phone...but I wanted ti know more about the specs

[psxworld101]

if this phone gets out for U$400 unlocked, they android wins, in a heart beat.

[psxworld101]

@psxworld101 the*

[TVjoakim]

Yup, time to change the HTC legend with this mother fu*ker.

[j0ebo99]

@ChrisxMetal ahh Yea I want to go there punk... obviously android has copied iphone in the past because it was the first smart phone retard. My point was when the first smart phone company has to borrow from android to stay in the running shows how much better android has become

[TheSandyee21]

this is sooo sooo MY next fone! :D

[TheGreatNabi]

@bushwhackbill LOL Motorola may have died without android, but Samsung? LOL. Samsung makes a lot more than just phones. They actually currently rule the TV market, and also play a part in laptops, home appliances, and many other electronics. Don't be so stupid.

[mikemike67]

My next phone Fo-sure

[labounti]

The speed of the camera is shocking............

[MRXantrax]

SUBSCRIBED

[Joshuah4498]

Omg i just got my nexus S like 4 months ago -______- thumbs up if your ticked off too..

[josian220]

@Joshuah4498 don't worry I highly doubt that nexus s wont get eventually 4.0 upgrade.

[rashawn770]

@Joshuah4498

Just got your Nexus S 4 months ago? Well then, that's entirely your fault. You should know that around this time of year, November-January, a new Nexus phone is always released.

(Meanwhile I'll be holding on to my Nexus One until an AT&T version of this 'Nexus 3' is released, GSM networks are better if you leave the country a lot like me.)

=\

[Joshuah4498]

@rashawn770 im not dissing your vid man. im just pissed :T

[drinksprite]

"lets open up the browser as well" *immediately closes it* hahaha. i wanted to see if the browser browsing was snappy

[865865]

I don't like some of the honeycomb features like the 3 led buttons at the bottom maybe its just me

[SeeburgMusic]

FOR THE LAST TIME, THE NUMBER OF PIXELS ALONE DOES NOT MEAN A BETTER OPTICAL CAMERA!!!!! JESUS CHRIST PEOPLE HOW MANY TIMES DO I HAVE TO SAY IT???????? Open your brains up and learn what the fuck you're talking about before you make bold generalizations like "a 5 mp camera is worse than an 8 mp camera". Damn get yourself some education.

[yyz71]

@SeeburgMusic You have to remember that these comments are coming from either apple fanboys, or just non tech ppl..

[TheCastaway15]

@SeeburgMusic 4s camera is better than the iphone4... i bet sgs2 camera s better than galaxy nexus.... swear 99%..... just wait...and see..

[thekidinthecorner123]

Does anybody know if it will come put to sprint

[j0ebo99]

Hmm I wonder where iPhone got its notification bar from??

Answer. Android

Galaxy nexus rules!!!

[ChrisXMetal]

@j0ebo99 The very existence of Android as we know it today was copied from the original iPhone in case you want to go there.

[msul78]

The Samsung Hardware is super awesome, but the OS UI looks like a crazy persons duffel bag.

[robbeextra21]

iPhone 4s,world phone. Galaxy Nexus, just antoher android phone

[hdxnickka]

Most people don't know what the "I" stands for in all the "I" products. Well it stands for idiot, hence all the idiot proof ui, GUI, etc. Ios iPod iPhone ipad icloud. Idiot phone 4 suckers :)

[raygwap21]

Can anyone tell me if this phone coming to tmobile

[douglasman100]

im getting this :D

[dguerrero808]

looks good! 6 months left in my contract i wonder if this phone will still be as powerful then?

[Xtraturbo]

Is there a led notification light?

[tanmimh]

@Xtraturbo Yes it is at the bottom bezel

[DeadChocobo]

I cant wait for Android PeachCobbler, but I hear thats not even gonna trump the famed Android BananasFoster

[DeadChocobo]

anybody notice how he passed over the camera shortcut twice looking for it? i guess we can attribute that to the excitement of it

[ZenmasterX1]

PENTILE DISPLAY THIS PHONE IS DEAD GS2 RULES!!!!

[framelocator]

This is what I call progress.

Putting an S behind a 4 is not progress!

[StringsCrusader]

i just wish it had a better camera than 5mp :( other than that, this is gonna be my new phoooooone!

[kenny964]

@StringsCrusader i saw some comparisons of it to the iphone 4s camera and even though the mp is low its a VERY good camera

[StringsCrusader]

@kenny964 ye i know the mp isn't the only deciding factor to determine a good camera, but it'd just be cool if it was that good, PLUS 8mp lol. but that's good to hear. can you send me the link to the camera comparison?

[EndRSteppinWolf]

It's funny of how pissed off you get when someone insults there favorite operating system. If you can afford an iPhone. Buy it. If you can't, buy an Android. It's simple.

[elphbwckd]

@EndRSteppinWolf iphone is not worth the money. you get way more for your money with android. iphones price is all marketing bloat. all it an do is launch apps. and facetime and siri are not even apple products... considering these were the big things on their past two phone releases shows apple doesn't know what to do without buying other companies ideas and putting them on their phone. and now with taking the notification bar and multi tasking from android... they are desperate and way behind

[EndRSteppinWolf]

@sladefury0000 go google a dick and jackoff to it.

[sladefury0000]

@EndRSteppinWolf go suck Steve jobs dick u need ur fix ........oh wait u can't cuz he died oops my bad.

[thehandicappedman]

1:55

"its just uhh to give us some atmosphere"

"yeah its very romantic"

*no answer* SHUT DOWNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN

[xxxecutive1]

IPHONE AIN'T SHIT COMPARED TO ANDROID AND NOPE...IPHONE IS NOT THE MOST POPULAR ANYMORE.THE GALAXY NEXUS KILLS ANY OTHER PHONE TO DATE HANDS DOWN! HELL I GOT THE EPIC 4G TOUCH AND IM MAN ENOUGH TO ADMIT IT! GO ANDROID!!!!

[ismaeldeltoro]

@xxxecutive1 and yeah it took Galaxy S 85 days to sell 4 million which iPhone finished for only 3 days.

[JOEZAAM]

@ismaeldeltoro because apple brainwashes people with their commercials. i guarantee that if apple made their next phone shit it would still sell records and people would still buy it because its an apple product that revolutionized the world. don't worry iphone 5 will have the same spec as this in 6 months and it will be revolutionary!

[julianixtheking]

@xxxecutive1 come down and shut your caps lock down little fanboy

[SunlightSkies]

@xxxecutive1 but i'm not sure about the batery life

[juicebox6666]

@xxxecutive1 good for you... take the caps lock off fag

[1971ROXX]

don`t like oval edges!looks like a soap!:)

[EndRSteppinWolf]

@johnnypowell859

What carrier are you using? Two phones for the price one is the reason why it's popular. How's your battery holding up by the way. I've owned an Android phone for year before buying an iPhone 4 and I thought the Droid was quality. iPhone 4 surpasses it.

[outlawphantom7]

what next a 40inch screen? They just keep getting bigger.

[MrRagingMammoth]

i prefer the SII.

[EndRSteppinWolf]

Looks like shit. Performs like shit. It's an Android P.O.S

[TRSF1]

@EndRSteppinWolf lol obviously you dont have one xD buy one, hack it, and then talk to me!

[SeeahArsenal]

@EndRSteppinWolf iphone fanboy detected....

[shady1630]

@EndRSteppinWolf And what are you comparing this to?

[leed85a]

@EndRSteppinWolf Looks like shit? Performs like shit? You got that from watching this video? God, you are such an idiot.

[TheBoomstickhero]

@EndRSteppinWolf

There are several Android devices that perform much better than the Iphone, including the OLDER galaxy phones.

[ismaeldeltoro]

@TheBoomstickhero If you are talking about the specs, yes you are right. But how iOS utilizes its spec is more amazing than the sheet you tend to read.

I have, too, a galaxy ace with spec like an iPhone 4 but it doesnt match up with what i can do with my smooth iPhone.

[johnnypowell859]

@EndRSteppinWolf If Android is a P.O.S then why is it the most popular smartphone OS in the WORLD? I look forward to your reply.

[ismaeldeltoro]

@johnnypowell859 Android is so popular because of its price ranges. You can have an android for only 150 dollars with no contract. Even ZTE makes Android phones and sell for 1/8 of iPhone.

Imagine Apple making 17 million iphones with two price points compared to other who makes millions of it in different levels.

17 million devices of expensive device is amazing.

[Alca1717]

MikeyMirrors

Thanks.

[domdom87]

the lady in the video found it 'interesting' the headphone jack's on the bottom...wut?

[Vampirvork]

damn want this right now in my hands

[pennjersey83]

wow

[TheCastaway15]

come one people.. stop defending the camera on this phone.... they can put an 8mp in thee but they didn't... samsung's fault? cuz they no want there gs2 to loose share in the market.....

[Rasengan572]

@TheCastaway15 Google and Samsung decided to go with the 5mp camera for its zero shutter lag, which is also very important for the panorama feature.

[deyvit25]

Copy of windows phone but descarado jajajajaj android can't be elegant whiteout copy
