I have both my Gmail and university email synced via exchange. I also have google contacts and google calendar synced also. It works great. I don't use google drive or google reader so I can't speak on that. Google music is probably what I'm going to miss most as there is no native app for iOS...

That isn't a fact at all. To the OP you shouldn't need anyone to tell you why you should choose which phone or platform. My girlfriend and I each got a iPhone 5 on launch day for a few reasons. P.S. both of us had unlocked Galaxy Nexus's prior. 1. Hardware It seems that the hardware both...

I'd love to win one !

The GPS on the galaxy nexus is crap. This is my second Samsung manufactured android smartphone and both had terrible GPS (first was epic 4g). On the galaxy nexus I have to constantly go in to maps close it and reopen it to try to get a lock. Often times it hangs on searching for GPS. And then...

I went this route believing it was for the best. Unfortunately I got burned. My device was bought from Newegg before Google began selling the Galaxy Nexus through the play store (Doesn't make sense I had to import a phone when Google is a American company). So no warranty and apparently it is a...

Re: Question about using this phone on T-Mobile It does make a difference. Especially if you're in a HSPA+ 42Mbps market. The highest I've reached on my Galaxy Nexus is 11Mbps but I average 7-9 Mbps. A HSPA+ 42Mbps device in NYC could get over 20Mbps and could get 15Mbps fairly easy.

I'm using T-mobile because I'm in a HSPA+42Mbps area (New York City). I was on the $60 unlimited talk, text data @2GB high speed. But this month I switched to their $30 100 min, unlimited text, 5Gb high speed 2G afterwards plan. I use the VOIP Talkatone with google voice to make and receive...

For 1 and 3. Go phone doesn't include roaming to my understanding. However you would be much better off using a AT&T MVNO than using AT&T gophone ($50 dollar unlimited talk and text + $25 for 1GB data) Some options off the top of my head is Red Pocket Mobile ($60 unlimited talk, text, 2GB...

Actually yes it has on Google's own page under features of Galaxy Nexus Galaxy Nexus I think Google should at least be responsible for the couple of Nexus's in existence. At least a well informed person can purchase a one that will be updated somewhat comparably with other mobile OS's. Edit...

I just switched to the $30 dollar plan to give it a test run. Searching about Simple Mobile it looks like they will cut your data off after 2GB. And Straight Talk isn't even a option. I can't deal with being watched like that. So far its going good. I'm using Talkatone with Google Voice set up...

Do you use any VOIP or SIP accounts to supplement your 100 minutes? I've been on the 60 dollar Monthly 4G plan with my Galaxy Nexus. I'm considering switching but 100 minutes is pretty low. Secondly, I thought Simple Mobile throttled way before 8GB. If thats their limit would it make their $60...

It would be great to win this contest. pick me !

This happens to me currently. I'm on a Monthly 4G plan with a unlocked Nexus. When I use the built in tether with my MacBook Pro it works for like 15 seconds. Edit: It must have been the do not track header I enabled under safari developer settings

Hey guys. Quick question, are any of you having issues with the built in hotspot on your Galaxy Nexus's? I can't seem to get internet through it on my Windows 7 desktop at all. Also on my Macbook Pro it works for a few minutes then the data cuts out again. Is there any way I could fix this? Oh...

I visit AndroidCentral everyday. Never won a contest had reserved a ticket for your NYC Samsung show but couldn't make it since I caught the flu. Would love to win this Galaxy Tab.
