Hey guys thinking about getting a Nexus just wondering how things such as the size and camera compare to the Incredible 2. Thanks!

I had the Incredible 2, much better phone coming from that one. The screen is a lot bigger, you get 4g and a duel core so everything is faster. You might miss some features of sense but trust me I could never go back to the Inc 2. The Camera is the only thing that might be better on the Inc 2 but Its not bad on the nexus. Just coming from 8 mp to 5mp there is a difference. The Screen on the nexus is a lot better than the Inc 2 as well. Colors are more vibrant and text is nice and clear. People say the Nexus has low signal but I know coming from the Inc 2 that it doesn't. I have never dropped more calls than I did on the Inc 2. So there you go.

I had an Inc 2 and will happily tell you the Nexus is much improved. Trigun nailed it

Had the Incredible (1) also and this phone rocks. You'll hear stuff about the camera being "only" 5mp as a detraction, but if you look at the sizes of the picture files they are no different than a 8mp camera. These little cellphone cameras all take pix that are usually less than 1mb, rarely up to 2mb. And on a screen like this you can't tell a 5mp photo from an 8mp photo anyway. It's all about the saturation, lighting, etc. The camera's fine. The phone rocks, and it's bigger than the Dinc, so see if you can handle it size-wise. I think the screen is way easier to see in sunlight than my Dinc.

Great! I had both a DINC and a DINC 2. I was a little worried about the camera but CM7 takes crummy photos anyways, so I'm not used to a high powered camera. Thanks!

My inc 2 fits my hand better and feels more solid. The screen still looks amazing running MIUI with ADW. I keep it at home on wifi, and since mobile network is off the battery life is measured in days.
I do agree with all the stuff above. I use Swype on the nexus where I could never get used to it on the smaller screen of the inc 2.
