SAMSUNG GALAXY NEXUS Review, Price and Specifications


Looking at this phone, only one word  comes to mind "BRILLIANT!!!". SAMSUNG keep on producing wonderful mobile handsets and now, they have come up with a complete winner, the GALAXY NEXUS. When we thought that S2 is an amazing phone, it can be considered as a few leaps above the S2, if not much.It has been given a nice body with a textured back, so it fits rather comfortably in the hand.



The phone has been provided with a Super AMOLED touch screen with the pixel density of 1280*720. The display is quite fantastic and with the Super AMOLED screen, the touch of this phone is an amazing experience.

The phone is powered with a dual core 1.2 GHz chip, and that's a lot of power. Phone runs very smoothly and the touch along with all the apps don't feel like hanging for even a second. There is practically no lag visible in this phone. Along with its 1 GB RAM, this phone becomes amazingly fast and nippy.

The real star of this set is its OS. It runs on Android v4.0(Ice Cream Sandwich). The OS is a clear improvement over its previous versions and contributes the maximum in making this phone what it is, TOTALLY AWESOME!!! When compared against S2 which has almost the same specs as NEXUS, it performed better than S2 showing the effect an OS can have on the performance of a set. Although, it does not contain the same number of apps as the apple store, but its a winner in every other field.

It is provided with a 5 MP camera which can be considered as a blemish considering the specifications of the phone. The phone is capable of so much more and keeping a 5 MP shutter is just restricting this phone from achieving the greatness it is more than capable and worthy of. The pics look decent(well what will not look good on its Super AMOLED screen) and it is capable of recording up to 1080p. It also possesses a 1.3 MP secondary camera for video calling.

Overall, this is a phone worthy of calling a CHAMPION. It beats every other phone in the market in almost all the features and can be considered as the one of the best ones available. The only thing we found disappointing was its 5 MP camera which is more of a restriction on the phone but otherwise this is one hell of a Smartphone.
