Touchstone mod blesses Samsung Epic 4G Touch with inductive charging powersOptimus 3D Gingerbread update coming, world shrugs, stares wistfully at Ice Cream SandwichAndroid 4.0.1Each year, several dozen smartphones land on our collective desks. They come in different shapes and sizes, boast different features and sell at different price points. We take each of them for a spin and review most of them, but only a handful really stand out. This is especially true with Android handsets, where incremental updates appear to be the
modus operandi. Every now and then a device comes along that we really look forward to getting our hands on. Google's line of Nexus smartphones falls into this category, setting the new standard for Android each year.
In early 2010, the
Nexus One became the yardstick for all future Android handsets and, later that year, the launch vehicle for FroYo. A year ago, the
Nexus S introduced us to Gingerbread on the popular Galaxy S platform. Now, a few weeks after being unveiled with much fanfare, we're finally able to sink our teeth into Ice Cream Sandwich with the
Galaxy Nexus, arguably the latest addition to Samsung's critically acclaimed
Galaxy S II family. So, does this highly anticipated device live up to our expectations? Is the Galaxy Nexus the smartphone to beat? Most importantly, is Ice Cream Sandwich ready to take Android to the next level? In a word, yes. Read on for our full review.
