are you refering to a slight hardware change inside of the Galaxy Nexus??? if that what your talking about i think you need to realize that phones dont last long enough on the current market to warrant a company to reinvent changing out components...its as good as its every going to get hardware wise. thats why they have such a thing as warranties if you get a lemon or defective product

You will know it is a REV. 2 device when you see the launch of the "Samsung Galaxy Nexus Prime".
That has already established to be name of the REV. 2 product.

I couldn't wait, so I got a Nexus on launch day, but I will definitely be getting the Samsung Galaxy Nexus Prime off-contract when it comes out.

What are you talking about? Prime was the internal name for the galaxy nexus and was thought to be its actuall name for some time. Their is no Nexus Prime.......Their will be no new Nexus for at least a year.

In the LTE phone market, a hardware revision most likely means a NEW PHONE!!! Even with some moderate hardware default, major manufacturers won't easily revise it. It's not just Samsung, Moto, or HTC. Think of the antenna gate of Apple and look what Apple eventually did for its iPhone 4.

Considering the severity of current bugs on GN, there is absolutely no chance that either Google or Samsung would come up with Rev. 2 hardware of GN. If they do, it would be in a different name.

PS - GN also had another nick name, which was Nexus Prime. I've never heard of any rumor about GN Prime(?).

What the hell are you talking about? What severe bugs do ALL GN's have????

And .. FWIW ... The Galaxy name is not going anywhere by Samsung anytime soon. And you can be sure as hell Google isn't killing the Nexus moniker.
