Someone at work paid the $750 price and I saw it during casino night.
I only had like 2 minutes to play with it.
Pluses: it was super thin and light but the build quality was very good! LIGHT YEARS better than the Nexus S. The screen was SUPER crisp and all I thought was wow it looks just like the retina display on the iphone. Also, comparing it to the HTC Resound that also has a 720p screen, the HTC didn't pop out and the text was too thin. But the Roboto font made the phone a pleasure to read with .
The camera did it pictures with no lag and its freaking awesome. even with flash, it was damn flash.
Minus: When I took the phone from my friend, when I was moving from each page on the homescreen, i feel lag and lack of response which probably means he's running alot of stuff but sad that it was perfectly smooth. I did ask him how he felt with teh phone, he said its the best android phone he's ever own.
other notes: I compared it to a Sprint Galaxy S2 with the 4.56 inch screen and the the effective screen size is smaller than the 4.5 inc screen but it felt larger than the traditional 4.3 inch screen. It didn't bother me that the galaxy nexus was a tad smaller in size. The colors on the white were more yellow on the GN than on my Super AMOLED Plus screen when I compared them side to side.
I guess that's all. I wish I had like an hour to play with it. But hopefully we will all get it this week.
