Default Galaxy Nexus - Reviews?

I have preordered my Galaxy Nexus and I'm waiting impatiently.

Found this review and found it interesting (even that it's short): http://www.techradar.com/news/phone-...review-1036487

Quote:
The screen quality of the Galaxy Nexus is as sumptuous as ever when it comes to Samsung screen - it lacked the colour depth of the Galaxy S2 in our eyes, but the sharpness of the screen was unrivalled, so it's clear to see the 4.65-inch screen is going to be a real winner for movies and the like.
Quote:
Internet browsing speeds were similarly blindingly fast, no matter which sites we threw at it. The sharpness of the screen was also really useful here, as even at full zoom, all text and pictures looked crystal clear and even flash video showed no lag when tapped up on a number of sites. Nice stuff.
Please share if you find any other reviews.

He has an Irish flag and his location is Dublin... hmmm I wonder where hes from.

I don't think there have been many (if any?) review units sent out to the big tech sites but I think we will see some in the next week or 2, especially once we get a release or pre-order date.

Actually there are a few online stores where you can preorder already. In Germany for example you can preorder from Cyberport for 579€ (around 800$). According to this site, shipping starts 24th. I don't know if the date is valid, but Cyberport is a legitimate site.

Nexus 4 - Rooted stock for the moment.
Samsung Galaxy Nexus (GSM) -- Constantly changing...
ASUS Eee Pad Transformer -- Revolver 4 by Gnufabio (daily driver) / AOKP by sportsstar89
SE Xperia X10i -- T.E.A.M ROM by Pvyparts & iridaki
SE Xperia X1i -- X2 port by jerpelea/FXP & XDAndroid

I have preordered with Clove, they are the first to have new phones. They are probably shipping internationally too, as they are based in UK while I'm in Ireland. When waiting for HTC Desire Z some time ago, they were the first to have it, I think they are HTC premium partner.

Some decent info but nothing we don't already know.
Its a preview not review...the guy has a strange accent on the vid at the end of the article.
Its something at least.

If your looking for reviews of the Nexus keep an eye on the Clove Blog.
