IM ready to buy this phone. i like the design and ''buttons'' but the only concern i have is battery. is it rally that bad. I'm a moderate user.i have an iPhone 4 and the battery last me 1 day exactly. will this last me 1 full day?? plz answer someone that has it..
get. shopkick. com / tapir8030 is the link to enter into your phone's web browser that will give you 50 BONUS KICKS for getting the Shopkick app from the Android Market or Apple App Store
The three dots next to the home button and stuff is the menu button for apps that still use it, the three dots in the app's interface is an overflow button, where extra buttons go, like settings.
This phone is so weak. Small battery compared to my RAZR maxx. 5mp camera... it does look really nice and user interface is neat. But I think they could've done better. They make cool phones but I don't like this one
I really like the smooth transitions on ICS. This phone looks like something worth spending money on, if only AT&T has it. I'm highly considering switching to Verizon for this phone. Just one question, how fast and reliable is Verizon in San Jose, CA? Thanks. :)
READ! all the phones he gets are sponsored or he gets them from the company to review them he doesnt really get to keep all the phones HE HAS TO RETURN THEM! unless he bought it for himself.
First off the camera looks very good for 5 megapixels, I never had a problem with it, and if you want more home screens you can always download third-party launcher.
You're an idiot, how did this stupid comment even get top rated?
He says its about 800 bucks but thats with prepaid, now its 160, same price as 16 gig iphone 4s. so stop saying it costs too much, he just said it that way. go on any site and look it up on a 3-year term.
@CrushCrawl I know right?? god damn these Cell phone users. Know nothing about cameras. Megapixels don't matter after 3.2 mp. its basically irrelevant. from around 3.2 pixels or higher the camera is more dependent on Lens and Sensor, ISO, etc etc. sure more megapixels is good, but the difference is pretty small. I look at my 8 mp camera from 3-4 years ago, and it looks pretty good compared to the 12 mp ones nowadays. this is just a snapshot camera btw.
@bha2ucheka True! I REALLY like how Aaron used to look like chubby and all, he looked professional then, now he looks like a nerd :/ get back to eating aaron! @phonedog
I understand you have to pay the bills, but Best Buy is almost as bad as Verizon. I should be telling them how to work these phones. They're frigging retarded.
every time he questions whether the OS is user friendly it makes him seem like he thinks we're retarded or something lol..."yea putting widgets in the apps menu might be pretty confusing..." really?? cmonnn haha
@NoWhere2G0 Does it cost more for like internet than other basic phones? The reason i'm asking if because i picked out a phone i wanted but it was a smartphone & my mom didn't let me get it because of the extra cost per month. Fyi; I'm only 16, so that's why my mom was involved.. :P
@YoyosAreBest Yeah I'm only 16 too, but yes it does because for smartphones (and above) you have to pay for data, which can vary from 500mb to 1gb to whatever.... Generally you're looking at a $50 to $60 odd dollar bill with a smartphone, opposed to $35 with a regular mobile phone
motorola xoom comes with all the latest things that tablet can have(Tegra 2, android 3.0) but its very expensive and it loses to other tablets (asus transformer & galaxy tab) which have a same spec but cheaper price. Now let's see if samsung galaxy nexus face the same fate as motorola xoom... :>
If i'd go for an really expensive phone, this would be it i think. Only if the physical quality is too poor, that might be a deal breaker. But apart from that, why would anyone buy iphone4s instead of this? I have Lumia 800, great device, but ... deep down... i'd prefer android, despite the fact that WP is really good. probably just not for me so much as android would.
I wonder if it really does kill the running apps or just puts it to sleep. Because if you ask any real Android or Linux user they'll tell you not to use a task killer.
When Isaw that phone I was all like OH MY GOD OH MY GOD!!! When I played with it I was like AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!!! XD And when someone else had it... I passed out.
Someone who have this phone, please answer me this: does the Galaxy Nexus camera have AE/AF lock (like the iPhone 4S does)? I can't find this information anywhere :(
@anduyerface it's $230 with a T-Mobile plan, $299 with a Verizon plan, and $500-600 without a contract. If you would actually pay attention the reviewer said the price was going to be less once the carriers supported it.
@Hashbrowniepie unlocked, they run anywhere from 600-800... thats without a contract... with a contract, expect to pay 200-300 depending on where/how you get it and provider...
@MrTemperShotz if you really want android, grab a galaxy nexus, it is by far the best android phone in the market without question, don't let anybody else tell you different. But if you are willing to venture towards other platforms, Windows Phones work really well with Xbox live integration and the Zune player is slick. Also the iPhone 4S is always a solid choice.
