And I'm sorry, I also wanted to ask you about screen bending and multitouch issues? I understand that some users have a screen that's slightly bent to the left or right and some users have a screen that is unresponsive to multitouch in some areas, have you had these issues?

[TheAngelofmusic1989]

@MadDogMeh hmmm...I have absolutely none of those problems...my screen is uniform and I can play multitouch games with no issues....so I have no idea.

Now forgive me if I'm wrong, I'm trying to decide between this and the Motorola Razr. I wanted to know if there is a setting for "Tap to focus" and if image stabilization was off, because in the powerpoint when this phone was launch, Samsung did mention image stabilization. And is the phone still a good phone, now that you've had more experience with it? Is the lack of an SD bother sum?

[TheAngelofmusic1989]

@MadDogMeh There is no image stablization

..but I have a steady hand with a camera. There is tap to focus during photos but not video. The continuous auto focus is pretty good though.

@avacadomilk2010 in regards to the PENTILE there is a slight edginess on smaller letters but that does not bother me one bit. That says a lot because I have superb macro vision and can see any minute detail.

Thanks for the review..u just made my decision concrete...once u said "laggy" and "unresponsive" I think I'm going with iphone

[TheAngelofmusic1989]

@gtr2828 you put words in my mouth. I said live wall paper is a bit laggy ONLY BECUASE IT ISN'T ICS OPTIMIZED. If you don't understand what I am saying maybe the iPhone is a better choice. I love Apple products but gee whiz...you are certainly not free to be yourself with them...you work for them. They certainly don't work for you.

Ahhh. I did drop mine and I did cry.

i also thought of tap issues.............but i found that some places you need it to tap twicw to work..............

[bsilver887]

Wow. You are 100% about that "paperiness". I get that on my Galaxy S2, and the employees at the place I bought it from didnt see it. I thought I was the only one that saw this.

Wanted to know what you use to help with battery life and performance?

[justlooking8p]

I don't usually comment, but great job!! It's nice to know what the real world application of this phone is like. I watch a lot of reviews and you are right, many of them tell us things we already know :p

[MrTvolsforlife]

RAZR FTW

[hisjoyful]

Would love a review of the Razr.

I've got to say, you've delivered the most comprehensive review of the Galaxy Nexus for those that really wanted to see the phone's capabilities in a real-world situation. Kudos to you, I hope you bring more gadget reviews to youtube!

What can you tell me about the volume of this phone while using headphones with it to listen to music and such? I will most likely be using this phone to listen to music, and I'd like for it to be rather loud like my iPod Touch:P
