Proprietary **** [closed-source] won't let Galaxy S II's CM10 fly. Mostly that, but there are many other things... Nexus + JB will even be better than a SII with Android 10.0

btw, Nexus 5MP camera still better than SII 8MP camera. 8MP SII camera doesn't say anything about quality, Nexus' sensors are better. Nexus have also a barometer, so GPS will be a lot better.
Galaxy s2 9100g already got CM10. Bad luck 9100 this time.

OMAP is better to develop, that's why JB made Nexus fly just see codeworkx, in love with his i9100G. He hates exynos. JB on SIII won't be as good as Nexus' JB. The improvement from ICS to JB on Nexus is much better than will be on SIII.

In terms of improvements you may be right, but only because the S3 has less of a gap to fill in terms of smoothness based on what I've seen. Fact is for me though, the Nexus lack of a SD card will always make it second place in my books. My Galaxy S2 is full already so for me, the Nexus just can't cut it. What I'd like to know is what effect does JB have on battery life. Didn't Google say that the CPU ramps up everytime the screen is touched? surely that can't be good for battery life

I don't need more space have my iPod 80GB to fill my 25GB music collection. Battery life may be good. CPU ramps up everytime screen is touched on SII too. But if on stock JB battery life is not good, then you can go to CM10 and it will fking FLY, battery will last much longer, I'm saying, custom ROMS/AOSP ROMs [I think it's the same on Nexus... but anyway] are so freaking great.

The reason nexus phones dnt hav sd card slot is because theyr nt gonna bog down performance of a phone by usage of an sd card... there are high quality and low quality sd cards... this way every single nexus owner has exact same hardware... unison in developing... nedus is a develipers device.. if u hav nexus u must be rooted..otherwise dnt take a nexus..

I love nexus and its screen... now nexus made more powerful then siii.. I assure it made its run... nexus is still googles flagship phone... its worth trading sii for nexus

I would buy a GNexus if it had a SD card slot. It doesn't so S3. Better CPU and GPU. I for one will not complain about having too much power
Its not 316dpi... nexus as 320.. so comparing to s3.. den nexus as 14dpi more den s3 :P jus wanted to make u know ...
