Default optimus 2x much faster than nexus prime?!

i was at a store today and i was able to use the samsung galaxy nexus for quite a while.. i was thinking of getting it next month but i was quite disappointed after playin with it.. my optmus 2x is much faster on ics! the only thing i loved about it was its screen... it was like.. whoa!! the perfect screen.. but even its launcher was too laggy :/ scrolling from apps to widgets screen made the phone look sooo slow.. what is your opinion on it?? should i get one of these or better avoid them?

Go fr it...nexus series has a great dev support..

2X devs are also good, but they are few in no.

My opinion is: do not judge the phone by how it behaves on the stock rom

hmmm i guess you are both right.. but isnt it strange that it is so crap out of the box?? if someone isnt in the modding trick he will be crying for the (lots of) money he gave for it.. and its the latest google official phone which should be flying while all the rest phones are walking..

Good point but you cant miss out on something you dont know or having experience.For that person phone is great and fast because they havent seen REALLY FAST AMD AWEASOME like we have catch my drift.

But yeah stock phones dual core or not are crap
