Is there more than one model of GSM Galaxy Nexus?

I imagine that the $399 offer will drive down the price on the used market on EBAY, and I'm wondering if all the GSM Galaxy Nexus are identical. I know there are differences between other Samsung manufactured units meant for the European market when compared with the US carrier versions. For example some European models have FM radios and US versions don't.

Does this work with other European, Croatia to be specific, carriers without problems? I have some friends in the US which can buy it for me.

It is supposedly locked to US carriers only (but unlocked to any US carrier)

You would probably have to unlock it further, unless Samsung locked it down like the Motorola Photon

It says: With devices on Google Play, you can buy an unlocked Galaxy Nexus phone that will operate on more than 200 GSM providers worldwide, including AT&T and T-Mobile in the US.

So I guess it works with my operator(Tele2). It only states in US it will not work on Verizon and Srint.

I was asking more if US phones have different hardware parts or whatever, as compared to European models. But if iPhone works here, I guess this phone does as well. Just wanted to make sure.

I have the original Nexus One. I used mediaNet for about four months before AT$T forced me to switch. I argued for another 6 weeks or so, kept giving them the imei of my HTC startek but in the end, I caved.

I am very tempted with this, although in some ways it seems like a side step and not a leap forward. I have been very happy with the N1.

Ironically, I am still with AT$T, still unhappy there, but not much for choices because of coverage and my kids keep eating up my upgrades. So I pay full price for my phone and full price at AT$T.

But I can say I'm not locked into a carrier???

They all have the same hardware, even the Verizon one, except Verizon has 32gb storage.

I wouldn't exactly call the VZW version the same as the GSM version.

Aside from the obvious CDMA vs. GSM difference, the CDMA version is heavier and thicker. Heck, you can't even swap batteries between the two so there are differences in the actual hardware.

Just placed an order. Hope it works with AT&T's medianet.

Did it work with media net?

This does work with medianet. Ask anyone with a galaxy nexus.
