Camera shots are quick but blurry
External speaker volume is low
All the
Small
Things
Internal memory (16GB only)
No Australian 4G LTE version
The Galaxy Nexus lacks a slot for expandable memory
The 5-megapixel camera isn't Samsung's best
And battery life could be longer. We're also still waiting for phone's connection to Sprint's LTE network
Only five homescreens
Other UI's offer better social networking
No microSD slot or FM Radio
Battery life disappointing
Speaker could be louder
And the 5-megapixel camera isn't Samsung's best. There's no support for Google Wallet
And several Ice Cream Sandwich features take some getting used to
Sharp display is wonderful at full brightness, Android 4, you'll be first in the queue for software updates, NFC, lightweight, video looks sensational
As display dims it becomes grubby, auto brightness too aggressive, no microSD card slot, early adopters will have to wait for app developers to catch up
The Samsung Galaxy Nexus offers an excellent Android experience that's hugely impressive, but we really believe it will be surpassed by others within the next few months...
Adds a ton of new and very welcome features with Ice Cream Sandwich, Sharp design, Gorgeous screen, Fantasic internal performance
Ice Cream Sandwich has eliminated some of Android's learning curve in some aspects, just to recreate it in others, Some static on calls, Handset feels rather fragile
Facial unlock is a fun feature, Contacts integration is excellent, Refreshed Gmail app is even better than before, Keyboard and internet both fantastic, Future-proofed with NFC
Only five homescreens limits customisation options, Other UIs offer better social networking, HTML email needs fixing, Voice dictation is a step behind Siri, No FM radio or SD card slot, Battery life needs to be improved
The update to Jelly Bean refreshes the Samsung Galaxy Nexus making it exciting again, while price drops ensure it's still a viable option. It's a great handset, but at around the same price the Galaxy S2 is still the better buy...

Abstract: Increasingly, however, Google realizes it must offer the smooth experience that makes devices such as the BlackBerry and the iPhone feel so consistent and coherent. It's this sense that inspires the devotion of users, which Google is seeking inspire wi...
Out of all of its features, the screen on the Samsung Galaxy Nexus is undoubtedly the star of the show. It features a staggering 1280 x 720 pixel resolution, bettering any smartphone we've seen to date, and it's easily sharp enough to view any websites without having to scroll from side to side. Super AMOLED technology is also used to provide glorious colours, and it's a great screen for watching
It's very difficult to find flaws with the Samsung Galaxy Nexus. The design will be too big for some people, and the large screen also has an impact on battery life. That aside, there are very few chinks in its armour.
Overall, the Samsung Galaxy Nexus is a fantastic smartphone, and it's definitely one of the best devices currently on sale. It offers more power than you'll ever need, a screen that puts rivals to shame, and loads of features. Only the size will put so...

Abstract: For a long time, if any technology writer was asked what phone they would recommend to most users, the answer was simple. Even for the least Apple-inclined, ‘Get an iPhone' was the only honest answer. It was not perfect, but it was the best on the mark...

Big, bright screen, "Pure" Android 4.0, Fast and responsive,
Not a design revolution, Poor battery life, Mediocre camera
The Galaxy Nexus isn't the most powerful Android phone around. It's not the most capable, either. But if you're after a "pure" Android experience, unsullied by the likes of Samsung's TouchWiz or HTC's Sense interfaces, then the Galaxy Nexus is a solid ...
Abstract: Android is becoming an unstoppable force in the mobile industry. A wide range of manufacturers, each have their own spin on the OS, have cranked out device after device. Google, however, has released the unbranded, vanilla version for a select few handset...
