Galaxy Nexus Released to the Public & A Review

So we have been waiting days and days for this device to come, and it's finally here... for UK'ers, but that won't stop us from making a review. When you open this device it will come loaded with Ice Cream Sandwich and all of its delicious features. Before we get into the awesome OS let's take a look at the un-boxing why not?


Vincent shows us his version of the un-boxing and I reassure you it will not come in your hands like this lets look at the retail packaging for this device. Now these guys who are the 5th people in the world to own this device have the retail packaging. It is the traditional packaging you will find in the Nexus line so nothing new. Comes with Chargers (AC), Headsets and the cable.

   At the bottom of this phone you will find 3.5mm headset jack which it weird considering those things are traditionally at the top. You will also find the Micro USB port to charge and download content as you wish. I feel as if the charging pins on the side are going to be used further in the year for something other than a dock because it seems like such a waste for those pins to be that huge and only be used for charging.

   On the left side of this phone there is the small volume rocker and on the top its blank, there is nothing there except the form factor. The camera as you now already is a 5 mega-pixel camera. Well you might consider that is weak, but remember the Droid Incredible's 8 mega-pixel camera and the iPhone 4's 5 mega-pixel camera and how it destroyed the Incredible? Well the same thing is happening here the number does not matter its the quality. When you talk the talk you gotta walk the walk(or show off your phone). The thing that makes this camera unique is the instant snap of a picture. By the time you click on the screen and the time you blink the picture is already taken. With the 1.3 mega-pixel video camera its pretty good, but its quality not quantity so it depends whether you have the phone or not.

   Inside the phone there are three different sensors. They include a Barometer, a Compass and a Gyroscope. The Barometer is pretty awesome. You'll have the correct temperature every minute!

  Yes that is the LED notifier. Many people were worried whether this phone would have this.

 

   

The display of this phone is amazing. The resolution is crisp if not the best in the market. Here are the Hands on's and Google's videos.
