Man, I am jealous of the speeds you guys get elsewhere. The most I can ever pull down here in DC is 10Mbps. And that's not just my phone -- the LTE phones in the Verizon store downstairs don't fare any better. :-\

Actually the radio issue is overblown. At the very worst you might get slightly less data speeds. Unless you are downloading lots of large files everyday you're not going to notice the difference.

Really? Tell that to people who get NO data in marginal areas where a phone like the Rezound does. It sure as hell is not 'overblown' to those people.

You don't know what you're talking about. The anandtech article was completely correct; the phone does not have a signal problem. It has a signal QUALITY problem. The strength of signal the nexus receives is no different than what the rezound gets. It's what is happening when the signal reaches the phone and the phone processes it that everyone is noticing.

Honestly, I don't think he cares what you call it, he's now getting a usable signal with his Rezound where he couldn't with his Nexus. Call it French Fries, who cares, he now gets data where he couldn't before. He doesn't need to be an RF engineer to know that!

Um, is it the radio that's treating you well or your area?

LOL...thats like trying to say all TVs get the same reception because they all display the same signal.

Thats obviously wrong. The different hardware in different TVs will affect their display. Even if you put them right next to each other, one will likely have better reception than the other. It's no different with phone radios. Some will work better than others.

That would be true, except for the fact that the reception on the galaxy nexus is no better or worse than any of the other LTE handsets. (that's been tested, and it is the same) Side by side, the Nexus has the same 4G reception as the Bionic and Razr. We know that reception is not the issue; something else is.

I streamed the Giants game on my laptop via wireless tether (1-2 bars 4g speed) flawlessly via the GNEX yesterday.....and oh ya, not paying extra $ to verizon to do it

Imagine not returning it and getting stuck with a phone with a weak radio for 2 years. So far there has been no indication that there will be a fix for this piss poor radio. If the fix isn't in 4.0.3 (highly likely), you're way better off returning the phone and eating the $35 restocking fee. Assuming it does get fixed in 4.0.4, the phone's price will have dropped far more than the $35 you forfeited.

Imagine not crying all the time. Sell the phone on Ebay and put some of your tissue money with it and buy a new phone.
This gets sooooooo oooollllllddddd with all the trolling here. Nothing but a buncha pissing and moaning ninnies.
There is no problem with 1) My radio in my phone or 2) the camera in my phone or 3) the battery life in my phone. I'm glad the Razr is faster on a stupid speed test, it can be faster all day long while waiting on ICS to play nicely with Blur. GAH!
