How many Galaxy Nexuses have you gone through?

ONE
You take care of her, she'll take care of you!
No slamming her against the wall!

My first one was ramdomly dialing #22899, about 4 times a day, which is a 3G roaming update. The tech said that it does something to the signal and 4G phones should never dial that number. The second one was perfect but wouldn't charge. The third one is doing fine but it is the third one in less than two weeks.

Davey11 +1.

Davidsnoodles what's your conclusion since you started the thread?

I can't really say what I think of the results. It really depends on who opens up this thread and chooses to vote. People who have had multiple phones may or may not stray away from this thread. I've had more than one Nexus, and I've gotta say it's pretty disappointing considering a lot of people apparently having no problems with their first Nexus.

It could just be coincidence that I've had multiple bad phones. It's good to see that the majority of people have only had one Nexus, though.

I think I'd like to have a second one to use for testing roms etc. Once the used price drops low enough on ebay I'll pick one up.

I'm still rocking mine I got the day it launched in Canada...I won it free through a Virgin Mobile giveaway. I took the obligatory pic, shook their hand, popped in the SIM from another carrier and walked out. Had problems with it rebooting initially but since 4.0.4 OTA update no problem whatsoever!

Looking at the poll, assuming 1, although a bit misleading as someone said above, means a persons 1st and only phone there is an overwhelming majority with little or no problems (enough that you would replace).

One could assume that the numerous threads about crappy phones come from the minority. And they are a vocal bunch.

Totally unscientific to be sure, yet the trend is there.

That is what it seems like to me. Each of the threads that I can remember asking for people's satisfaction or happiness with this phone (especially those with polls) have shown the majority of the respondents are happy with their GNex overall.

So I'm assuming "1" = 1 then went to the Razr Maxx

As of right now there are 52 out 160 people that had to exchange at least once.
Not sure close to 30% defect ratio is something to be proud of.

Considering that the majority of the posts are "OMG my phone is terrible why didn't I buy X," a 30% ratio is surprising.

I am on phone number two, bricked the first one within a day oops....called complained had a new one overnighted to me.

How'd that happen?

I hope you contributed to the 4+ category since you've mentioned you're also on the 4th one

I did indeed. I figured it was inclusive of current ;-)

Must say, it's kind of disappointing that only 60% of people in the poll still have their original Nexus. However, I should've asked people to vote on hardware malfunction/software (obviously on unrooted) problems, rather than accidents like liquid damage or drops, cracks, etc. I'm on my 5th Nexus (after the 4th one had 4G signal drop problems), and I'm really satisfied with this one. Hopefully nothing will go wrong.

Only one here

On my second. First one (made in Korea) fell into some water, and would get stuck in boot loop. Other than that, no problems. I brought it back and they gave me a refurb one (made in China.) No issues yet, except ONE dropped call and a random reboot once or twice. And I hope that's it...

 

[woody_105]

On my second and getting ready to call for #3. Both phones have had the data drop, mic cut out, echo to other party, and loud squelching on my end during calls. Love everything about this thing but the dang phone! Unlocked, rooted and on newest radios and build and still very disappointed. Hope 3rd time is a charm because I'm not sure there will be a #4 if not.

 

[mechapathy]

Still on my first one since launch day.

So, been through six now and questioning my sanity, but I want to stay on Verizon and can't find anything better.

Phone 1- overheat on charge and data drop at least one a day

Phone2- could not hold a signal, sent back immediately

Phone 3- worked perfectly, except the earphone Jack didn't work

Phone 4- bad speaker- sent back immediately

Phone 5- worked great except when I turned off the stay on while charging feature than had the data drop issue

Phone 6- just plain sucks. Data drop, poor signal, call drop, overheat

I'm cutting my losses and going back to phone 5, which I had my it support save. She thinks I am nuts to keep this phone and won't provision it to anyone else in the company.

Best phone I've ever hated or worst phone I've ever loved?
