Yeah I use it at the gym every time I go for music too, and in my car while j drive, but with all the factors of music quality Im not expecting beats audio to be a huge difference, unless the mp3 quality (actual digital file) is somehow different my other mp3s, which often vary due to bitrate levels, than i dont see how it can really he a selling point....
Because not all MP3 hardware is equal. Some do sound better than others.
I will admit I haven't tested it out on my own, but I have owned HTC phones and can say its definitely not worth Sense and getting updates a lot slower than the galaxy nexus.
I had a Droid, which was vanilla Andoid, and still waited forever for updates. Putting up with subpar hardware for a 2 year contract is not worth getting updates quicker for a lot of people. HTC phones have always been rootable, and if we really want the latest OS right now, thats an option.
Apparently there are defective units out there...because there are a bunch of us that seem to have units that work fine...
If the forums are any indication, the chances of getting one of those "defective units" are quite good, and it isnt like Samsung is NOT known for substandard build quality.
You tap on the screen on the thing you want to take a picture of and it focuses it, still faster than waiting for the cameras to adjust their auto focus and then take the pic! Regarding quality, again I'm not sure because I havent compared them, but considering I'm not using my camera to take pictures to send in to sports illustrated or time magazine, I'm not expecting the difference to bother me....
If those things dont matter to you, then it makes sense to get a Nexus. But the Nexus does have obvious flaws. And Camera/sound do matter to a lot of people.
The argument could also be made that the slower shutter speed of the Rezound is not that big a price to pay for better resolution and image quality.
I get what you're saying...I was referring to ICS...when it comes to hardware, the cutting edge is always two weeks away from becoming the ex cutting edge in this industry...lol but again, some phones have been having radio and GPS issues...there's a thread in one if the forums (I forget which one) dedicated to those whose phones work fine...for them, there's no need to speak up so you never hear that their phones are working fine, but there's a bunch of us out there!
I agree. But you are more likely to get lemons from some brands than others, and the Nexus seems to have a much higher ratio of those compared to the Razr and Rezound.
With all that being said, I am an open man with an open mind, please tell me how beats audio actually makes it sound better?
Some hardware is better than others. They are not all identical. I am not talking about the "beats audio" (which is basically just an EQ setting and a marketing gimmick)...I am talking about the actual audio hardware. It is just like buying a car stereo...you buy the same set of speakers for all the car stereos on the showroom floor and they will
NOT all sound just as good.
And how is the rezound's pictures better in quality? I am interested in knowing...
Low light images are a good example. Video quality is another (not all 720p video is equal...some have a crappier frame rate or stutter, some introduce video artifacts, ect...). Some camers have better color reproduction (some will tint the image yellow or red or wash it out). Some cameras are better than others. MPs and shutter speed are not the only variables.
btw SD expansion must mostly be for rooters if I'm not mistaken...? I doubted the way the galaxy nexus internal storage would work, but its actually easier to use and seems better than an SD...
LOL! That sounds like something an iPhone user would say.
I have never met a single Android user in real life who thought a lack of SD expansion is a good thing. There are all kinds of reasons for this, but the main one is cost...I dont have to pay more up front. I can choose to add it later. Even most Nexus users would rather have SD expansion if given a choice.
