What would it take for you to ditch your Gnex?

[elvisgp]

The galaxy nexus is one heck of a phone and I absolutely love it. ICS is certainly beautiful and one of the best OSs on the market. But this got me thinking. ICS is pretty much only on the gnex right now, and that is probably one of the main reasons people bought it. So, what would it take for you to ditch your beloved gnex? would it be an awesome quad core phone with stock ICS or the next big thing?( haha, samsung commercial reference.) please hit up the poll below, and give explanations in the comments. ok, yeah maybe I "stole" this idea from droid life(btw an awesome site), but I figured that not everyone here reads droid life. so, yeah.

2 phones could make me leave my Nexus. The next Nexus or the Iphone 5.

Although for the Iphone 5 to do it, it has to have bigger then a 3.5 inch screen and LTE. These are the main reasons i passed on the 4S in October.

The next Nexus in December 2012. That's it.

what would it take? one more bad nexus and I'm demanding a new phone from another maker. The whole newness of ics has worn off for me, I jusrt want a device that can also work as a phone.

When I was making this post, I knew that someone would post an answer like this. But u need to understand that ics is a brand new os, there will be issues. That's something that has to be considered before buying this device. There's a reason the galaxy s II and the Droid razr phones don't have many bugs: mainly because gingerbread has been out more than a year, and the bugs have been worked out. So ics and the nexus need time to improve. And updates are coming.

Why is that acceptable to you? Would you accept that from a TV you bought? Just sit tight, your TV will work eventually, but for now, it sucks and you should have expected that it would suck since it is a brand new model of TV?

Nobody would ever accept that response if it pertained to a TV. Why accept that for a cell phone?

Ok ok. I actually read ur post before I posted. I used ics to refer as the nexus as a whole. That was my mistake. Sorry. Now I understand u have issues with ur phone and I'm not saying u have to sit back and deal with it (gnex girl!) I'm saying that since this is a nexus device, expect issues with it and be aware of them before u buy. The nexus is like a beta device meant to test out the new software. I don't want to start a flame war here. And I appreciate u taking a more calm approach with ur answer. Now let's just end this argument and actually focus on what the original question was.

Best phone I've ever owned hands down. Would only trade it for the next nexus.

When my contract runs out, i'd get the Samsung that was out with better specs.

Why wouldn't the current '13 smart phone have better specs?
