Hey again,
I was just thinking back to how impressed I was with the loud speakers(s) on the Bionic. Are both screens in back of the device actually speakers? I could only get sound to come from one on a video I was playing, however, it was 10 times louder than any phone I have ever used.
That being the case, i was excited that the RAZR would also have a similar design... well, it appears that there is only one small slice in the back for the speaker on the RAZR, Can anyone attest to the sound quality or volume level?
The only bad thing I see about the Nexus is the small (which is the same as my NS4G) speaker in the back for audio... and the 5MP cam instead of 8MP...
HHmm....
First off.. congrats on leaving Sprint soon.. not a clue why people pay for data and phone service when they barely get coverage for either.
As far as your next phone, of course asking in the Nexus forum is going to be heavily favored torwards Nexus.. but it all depends on what your tastes are. My main qualities I wanted in a phone were Durability, Signl Strength, and GPS.. basically the primary functions I will need out of a phone. I will be doing plenty of Apps, web browsing, texting etc (one big reasons why im switching from a samsung phone is also the text missing problems I've been having.. missing texts daily.. its supposedly a problem specific to my phone Samsung Fascinate.. so I'm trusting Verizon on this one and not blaming their network.. I'll know for sure soon enough). And I can do all that on the phone I chose, which isnt the Nexus.. going with the Razr. I also think the SD card slot is pretty much a must have.
You have a Samsung Nexus S 4g so if you arent experiencing GPS issues with that, and the screen seems pretty scratch resistant.. then you can already check off a few of my concerns and maybe be more comfortable with the G-Nex then me.
I don't ever plan on rom'ing/root'ing/flashing the kernel etc.. so the main benefits of the G-Nex to me arent really benefits at all.. and I wouldnt use NFC and honestly cant recall a more overhyped feature on a phone.. ever. Another benefit of the G-nex is actually not a benefit for me and some others.. the software keys.. I love having the 4 hardware keys on my fascinate and the Razr has pretty much the exact same setup.
So factor everything in.. just remember the Galaxy Nexus might underperform phonewise to some of its competition.. even if it blows them out of the water in the dev/fondling dept.
