Hi community of xda , I have a little question about two incredibles cell phones.
They are Samsung Galaxy SII and Samsung Galaxy Nexus , I am able to buy one of this , but I am not sure which is better , for this I am here and ask my question.
I want to see opinions of the people and with this I will buy one of the two.
Sorry for my poor english.
Thank you
From these nexus is better..because performance and display is better than s2.and the benefit of nexus is you will get the update of OS on time...sure...
Xperian8~ click thanks if it helps...
This should help you, check here.
Both have a huge community and lots of custom stuff to play with.
The display is nice and performance is not that different either.
Both phones have ICS available.
The biggest drawback of the nexus is no extra SD slot.
If that is not an issue, pick the one you think looks the best.
Edit: Price is currently the same for both on amazon too.
You can't really go wrong with either one.
WARNING:
I'm assuming you have the choice between the i9100 and i9250.
But if the choice is between the i9100G (Current batch of SGS2 being produced) and i9250, take the i9250 (gnexus).

You should compare them on gamarena. I've had a little go on the SII and it's alright but I don't really like the look and feel of it. I've never tried the Galaxy Nexus before but it looks like it is a very good phone. The Galaxy Nexus has a slightly bigger screen (I like big screens) so I'd personally choose the Nexus. Also the I think the SII is slightly overrated and the Nexus is kind of hiding around the corner because a lot of people think that the SII is the best and blah blah without thinking about other phones (This is my personal opinion so please don't hate).

the samsung support is very bad and i dont know if the galaxy s gets more android updates
can someone help my with my choise

Don't know much about the Galaxy other than I like the name
I can say the Nexus rocks...check out what great developement has been done for it here:

Definitely the Samsung Galaxy S. If you root your phone you don't have to worry about having to wait for Samsung to update your device. It is better than the Nexus One in terms of hardware performance, and its screen is a beauty.
Until Swype comes out on all andriod, Galaxy S at least have one feature that definitely wins N1.

I'm sure the N1 can use Swype too, and if not, don't expect it to be without Swype for long. And even if it doesn't you can substitute with Shapewriter for now.
This whole thread can really be discarded. Just take a look at the Samsung Galaxy S vs HTC Desire thread... because the N1 and the Desire are almost the same device!

hmm ok thanks evryone for the information
I think i choose the nexus one
because it will get more update's of android
you guys think this is an good choise?
So, I have gotten stuck between three different ones...
Samsung Galaxy S II
Samsung Galaxy Note
Samsyng Galaxy Nexus
Upgrading from a HTC Wildfire.
A bit about my usage... I never call. Maybe once every second month. I find the e-mail/browser the most important feature, along with calendar sync with Exchange.
I write relative much in WhatsApp/Sms
Accessories-wise, I kinda want something to protect the front, but I never liked screen protectors, as I'm a horrible perfectionist.. For the S II and Note I know you can get official stuff that covers the screen, but none yet for the Nexus..
I study finances, so if I can read - without problems - PDF, it would be great.
Gaming-wise.. Well, I just want to play stuff like Where's My Water, Cut the Rope, etc...
So, anyone can help me point out which probably is best for my needs?
I recomend for you the Galaxy Note, since it have all the others features plus a huge screen for reading PDF.

I would be inclined to agree, the Galaxy Note would be the best for reading documents on the go.
How's the battery time on the Note compared to Nexus/S II?
Not sure about the battery differences but if you're studying up on things and reading PDFs, definitely the Note.
The Galaxy Note seems to be a cross between a phone and a tablet. I've got a Galaxy S2 and I am very happy with it. For your purposes though I think the Note with it's bigger screen will be best.
i think galaxy note will be awesome for you
choose the galaxy sii

Really appreciate the opinions
Could only find the S II / Nexus in stores today, and if I had to choose between those, I think I would choose the S II.. The Nexus is nice, but it just doesn't seem quite as well-done as the S II.
Without a doubt a great phone, but feel it's a bit underwhelming.
I would give you the HTC S empfehlen.Sehr good device.
Galaxy s 2
HTC Wildfire S VM "s-off rooted stock Rom"
Thanks for all your help
At least I know the S II / Note would be #1/2
Hey man,Think about it, if you do not need a cell phone then perhaps you should buy a note... but the Galaxy has both and is more convenient to carry...
If you can upgrade to Android 4 (Ice Cream Sandwich) on the Note that would be your best bet if not you might consider the Nexus.
Definitely recommend the note for you. You'd probably enjoy the increased real estate on the screen, plus that thing is damn quick.

Have it?
Actually been wondering how the pen and the overall speed is
I also recommend the note for you.
I want to save for a new phone, i was thinking of getting a Galaxy S ii or Galaxy Nexus. Which is better?
they are the same only nexus has a better screen. (CORRECT ME IF IM WRONG)
why dont you wait for s3 like i do?
i wiil go with nexus
i think "Galaxy Nexus" would be better. u will get a long talk time and better uploading speed here. downloading speed is also good here....
I honestly and personally would get the Galaxy Nexus. The SII seems a bit over rated to me. Also the Galaxy Nexus looks a lot better and looks like something that is fun to use
Galaxy sII

Better in terms of pixel density which results in slightly sharper images. However, the s2 produces better quality images and the contrast and viewing angles are much better

get the nexus .more updates in the future
Galaxy Nexus. Screen is really nice and it is smooth right out of the box.
Samsung also sells an extended battery which adds very minimal bulk. It makes the battery cover flush and adds a little bit of weight which feels nice.
Galaxy sII：O
i think galacy nexus is better, however if i were u i would buy an htc one s
So any way it depends what you use your phone for. If you want high resilousion pics then go with the s2 cause it has the 8mp camera compared to the 5mp camera for the nexus. So if you put the s2's photos on a big screen it will look better than the nexus's photos on the same big screen,but if you look at the nexus's photos on the phone screen it will look better than the s2's photos on the phone screen because the nexus has a higher resliousion screen.
So if you are gona put your photos onto a computer then go with the s2 but if you are gona just look at them on you phone then go with the nexus. The specs of the two phones are the same a think is 1.2 ghz dule core prossor and 202 gpu.
It should be fast enough for daily tasks and gameing alike.

Galaxy Nexus for me. Only because it's an official Google phone, I love to have the updates before everyone else
i think galaxy nexus is better.. it has more modern technology than galaxy S2
i also think that galaxy nexus is better
Well i too would suggest the nexus.. but if you are still saving.. and saving big.. wait for the s3 !!
Sent from my MB525 CM9-Nightly using XDA
I think Nexus is better than S2 for performance.But You can try to another Product like HTC or Sony.
My vote is on the Nexus
However if you have that kind of cash why not consider something newer in the market?
I would definately wait for the s3! the official release is this thursday, so it's sooooo close!
there is no official picture but there are some leaked pictures based photos, check out the site of sammobile . com, there are some pics! (I can't post links..)
it supports better specs than s2 or nexus.
If you don't like this and can't wait for 2 days, I would say galaxy s2 because it has such an overwhelming development section with soo many ROMs etcetera.

You should wait just a couple of days..
For sure the one currently with the most up to date software without having to root it and install one of the custom ROMs here would be the Galaxy Nexus. Although it won't be the best device in a couple of days. I suggest you to wait just at least a couple of day before choosing if your one top notch up to date kind of guy since the Galaxy SIII should be announced on May 3rd by Samsung. Also, the HTC One series are getting through many carriers these day until the end of may. The One X is definitively a much better device currently even if it's not available everywhere. Anyhow, if you want it at the end of the day, I would go with the Galaxy Nexus, if you can wait just a couple of days, I would be curious to compare it with the incoming One X or the SIII!
If your into custom rooms, definitely go for the s2 as there is more going on in the development section

Hey guys! Judging by my name you can probably tell I (used) to be a noob. Well times have changed and I'm coming up on 2 years with an extensive knowledge of rooting and whatnot (little rusty on my ADB skills but I'll manage xD). My question is whether I should get the Galaxy S3 or The Galaxy Nexus? Money is not a factor in this. Whats a better daily phone for everyday use? Battery Life? Display? Usability? More importantly which phone is better for flashing roms, overclocking and just general tinkering? I'd love to hear your thoughts
experience doesnt matter its all about post count.
The Galaxy Nexus is comparable to the Galaxy s2, the s3 is a better phone than both. I'd go with the s3 unless you can wait until the next Nexus
IMO the Nexus phones are a blank slate that you can setup yourself, while the galaxy phones have everything done already. That said the s3 has plenty of rom/modding support so just flash it and do your own thing
They both are great phones but as in performance the s3 is better. If you want pure Google then go with the nexus, you won't be disapointed with either phones

Alright, so I'm getting a new phone this summer (or Christmas) and I can't decide between the Galaxy S3 and the Nexus 5. The Galaxy S3 is 100€ cheaper but the Nexus 5 is the newer and more supported. I'm looking for a phone that can be my daily driver and possibly take good photos and video, although I'm not really looking for amazing quality. I'm used to low end smartphones like the Galaxy Pocket (God that thing was a nightmare) and Galaxy S Duos (this one is a bit better but JESUS IT SUCKS AS WELL-- only sometimes).
I don't want TouchWiz no matter how much "faster" and "more beautiful" it is, because I know that Samsung only makes it go fast for about a month and then BOOM it's slow as heck for no reason. If I get the Galaxy S3, I'm gonna flash a KitKat ROM on it.
