You cannot beat stock Android. Battery life on this phone leaves a lot to be desired, so buy an extended battery if you're purchasing this phone. NFC is a great, underutilized feature. I've used Google Wallet more than once and although it's not accepted everywhere, you can use it anywhere PayPass is accepted and it is very convenient. Only other wish is support for MAP (Message Access Protocol, passing text messages over Bluetooth) so I can read text messages on my MyFord Touch radio while I'm driving.
I bought this phone because it is the latest Nexus device for CDMA networks. The phone is still decent when it comes to hardware and performs very well with vanilla Android. The screen is a very nice size for average hands and works surprisingly well in daylight. The phone's wifi and cell radios seem to be average to slightly above. Calls are clear, however the external speaker is weak. Overall this is an excellent phone, but the battery is absolutely horrendous. It is the most awful battery I have ever had the displeasure to use, but there are good options out there for an extended battery. I knew this before I bought the phone. So be sure you figure the price of an extended battery into what you can spend for this phone and you should be happy. I moved from Verizon to Ting (a MVNO of Sprint) and had a Galaxy SIII from Verizon, while the specs of this phone are lesser than the SIII it has not been a terrible downgrade at all and also its great not having TouchWiz. Great phone, just be sure to get an extended battery.Read full review
I bought this phone to use with ting.com. I got laid off and had to buy out my verizon contract with 5 months left on it. The phone was two years old when I bought it and does well. I do not use it as much since I'm trying to keep the bill down. I was a real data hog with verizon. Ting.com uses the sprint network, they are ok for the price, free voice roaming to verizon is nice, but not data. Trying to stick with wifi anyway. The phone is ok, I put cyanogen mod on it, standby lasts a day or two. It's not getting used much. Good used phone. The back plastic cover is weird. Cheap for sure but works.
Bought this phone for a friend. My mom has one and I liked it quite a lot, which is interesting because I'm addicted to my iPhone. Its easy to maneuver and has all the features one could need. The size is great, it does text, email, calendar, phone, plenty of apps, good camera. Its a very good choice. I've since gotten to look at a Nexus 4, the follow on, and its just as awesome but much faster and its camera has more features.
The Samsung Galaxy Nexus is really THE phone for anyone who is into android. Anything in the Nexus line is what you eventually want to shoot for when it comes to android. Very easy to unlock, root, and customize, with updates directly from Google and zero bloatware. The only flaw in this phone is it's fairly abysmal battery life (though the carriers do offer extended batteries now, and some of them even offer them for free) This is the best Phone I've personally ever owned. If you're an android user, do yourself a favor and settle for nothing less but A Nexus...
