    I was reading some comment from the nick "yellow" with IP 0EIA.

    This guy is the funniest thing since sliced pie. He is absolutely clueless about almost everything.

    I was amazed at how much someone can write with so little knowledge!

    Please continue "Yellow", i like it! Funny stuff!

                      I think most people here either work for Samsung or have Google. Every smarthone since the launch of iphone has been trying to copy them, but fails. No matter what you say, iphone will remain the top-of-the-line smartfone. Samsung is good, but when you try to follow the market leader, you always end up being second!

                          iPhone 4S costs from $650 - $850. It's in the same range, and I'd argue that the parts that make a Galaxy Nexus costs more than the iPhone 4S.

                                $800 not necessarily = R.I.P.
                                Nexus line of phone has always been for niche market, especially for independent devs wanting to develop & test out apps with Android 4.0.
                                They're bizmen, c'mon, surely they never target this phone to out sell GSII.

                                    With the 800$ price, i can buy a notebook computer with 2nd gen intel i5 processor with good graphics memory, and can install infinite number of applications, store & watch lots of HD movies in, can do lots of work n play. Really spending anything more than 300$ on a phone is totally waste.

                                      its one hell of a nice device, seems like all the previously released phones would be obsolete soon.....

                                        The only reason why a cheap plastic Samsung phone doesn't break when it falls is because there is nothing solid in it. If you drop your Samsung phone, it will wiggle like an autumn leaf before touching the ground.
