Question Who is upgrading to the Galaxy Nexus?

Hi,

just wondered who is upgrading your Nexus S to the Nexus Prime? Who is willing to invest over 500€/$ for this new Google Device?

I'll definitely wait for a lot of reviews, roms, ice cream on Nexus S to compare and price drop, then i decide what to do.

The screen seems outstanding but there are almost no apps for that resolution, and upscaling is not that good. The ram is nice but i prefer 2gb to never worry about it (at least for 2 years).

I like 4.0 inches screen, and 4.65 inch is too large for me... Not easy for taking .

I'm going to stick with my nexus s as I also don't want/need a giant screen...4" is perfect for me. I'm just praying we get ICS on our phones soon!

If it's a sexy handset which uses nice materials and has a premium feel then I will definately be upgrading.

If it's plasticky and looks typically dull then I will be hesitant and wait to see how ICS performs on my current Nexus S.

Price is irrelevant to me.
