Samsung Galaxy Nexus

   Samsung and Google have announced in Hong Kong the first Ice Cream Sandwich smartphone which is the expected Android version released for phones and tablets. The slim Galaxy Nexus looks like a Samsung and has a huge 4.65 inches display with powerful hardware inside. 
   The main competitor for HTC Sensation XL has the below technical specifications:

-- DISPLAY: 4.65-inch Super-AMOLED capacitive touch 720 x 1280 pixels screen.
-- CPU:  ARM Cortex A9 1.2 GHz dual-core processor.
-- MEMORY:  1 GB RAM.
-- STORAGE:  16/32 GB for internal, micro-SD slot.
-- CAMERA:  Primary - 5MP led flash camera, video recording up to 1080p.
Secondary - 1.3 MP, video chat, video calling.
-- CONNECTIVITY:  LTE, 3G, HSDPA, HSUPA, Wi-Fi 802.11 a/b/g/n, Bluetooth 3.0 with A2DP, micro-USB port, 3.5 mm headphone jack, A-GPS, DLNA, NFC.
-- SENSORS:  Proximity, Ambient Light Sensor, G-Sensor, Digital Compass.
-- BATTERY:  Li-Po 1750 mAh
-- MULTIMEDIA:  touch sensitive buttons.
-- OS:  Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich.
-- APPLICATIONS:  Google Apps, social networking. 

   This is the first phone with a HD Super-AMOLED slightly curved screen. The camera is capable of taking panorama pictures and zoom while video recording. In my opinion the screen is too big and the battery is not enough for it.
   The other features are given by the new Android version like new design for icons, the screen can be unlocked using the face recognition, voice typing input, users can drag icons to create a folder or inside a folder. The new Android Beam allows sharing through the NFC technology, calendar and email applications have been redesigned and have improved features. The contacts application is now upgraded and looks about the same with People from Windows Phone 7. Samsung Galaxy Nexus will be available starting with November.
