Upgrade Advice: SGS II vs GNex

Dear xda,
To many of you this may seem like a stupid question, and are probably thinking "this idiot should just go do some research" - I already have. I can get an upgrade as early as the 28th March (Just over a month away). I am not considering the SGS II (I already know it will be too expensive)
So this is what I know to make my decision upon, any other developments, user experiences welcome.
Galaxy Nexus Pros:
-Google ICS
-Will receive latest updates
-4.65" Screen 720x1280 HD
-Aesthetically pleasing
Galaxy Nexus Cons:
-PenTile matrix screen [everyone or reddit says not to worry, this screen is the **** and a lot better than sgsII's)
-Price
-Worse Camera than SGS II
-Worse GPU than SGS II
-Worse CPU??
Galaxy S II Pros:
-Getting ICS
-Cheap (£26pcm - will drop with release of SGS III)
-Awesome hardware
Galaxy S II Cons:
-Smaller screen than GNex 4.2" 480x800 WVGA
-Almost a year old (however still comparable to Gnex which is a "brand new" device)
-Not sure: worse android development than GNex??

By March 28 the SIII will probably be revealed...

May last I heard, but it'll be way too expensive, the only benefit it will give me is drive down the prices of those two phones.

Yes wait for a couple of months or you will repent for sure. Both the devices you have shortlisted will be outdated soon.
Sorry to say this here, but looks like Windows Phone 7 is also a good platform.

There are new midrange phones expected from HTC. Waiting will be the best choice at the moment.

Prices will come down but I don't think by that much as this is still a powerful phone. It's selling well and I doubt we will see the SGS3 that early as most likely they will try to have a same timeish global launch considering it's pretty new in the States. I personally think they will try to compete with the iPhone 5 than anything else so may get a delayed launch but that's just what I think!
Hold tight as rumours it may get announced at the Amsterdam event next month so we may or may not get an indication of release date.

From a specs standpoint, the practical difference in high end Android devices is absolutely nothing. You aren't doing any computationally intensive operations like compiling source code or video conversions. You're running games and social media apps and texting and looking at emails.
Sure, the GSII has more megapixels, but I can't tell a difference in the picture quality. Plus, the Galaxy Nexus has a much fast shutter speed, which more than makes up for the 3 megapixels it's giving to the GSII.
The screen surface of the Galaxy Nexus is smoother than the screen surface of the GSII. I have no idea why, but the GSII isn't nearly as easy to fling your thumb across and shows fingerprints more.
The Galaxy Nexus has a recovery partition, the GSII doesn't. The Galaxy Nexus development is thriving and probably has 5 or 6 ROMs that are built from Android Source. There are 2 AOSP roms for GSII and several Samsung-based ROMs.
Really, I love both of the phones. There are ALWAYS better phones on the horizon. Always. Don't wait.

I'm in no rush anyway if I'm honest, the earliest I can upgrade is the 28th March (officially ends June 28th), I just want to know where I stand with phones so I can get right in there and not have to ponder too much about what I'm going to go for. It's funny to see the idiot salesmen try to push crap onto you though (I was told the Buzz is better than the Bravo when I was getting it).

I will recomand SGSII i had GNex and was a bit dissapointing,a little bit laggy worse camera and the build quality is not so good

I would go for the galaxy nexus 100%. If i had the choice i would myself or wait for the s3. But nexus will get updates quicker and its "pure".

Not nearly all nexuses are getting updates straight from google, also it has lots of pixels so lots of work to do for gpu so it might be a bit laggy

The buttons being on-screen on the Nexus would worry me a bit, they're going to cause some annoying screen burn.

had the Gnex for a week. Its really overhyped, im sorry to say. There is actually nothing i really preferred over the SGS2. Even the screen was not as bright and vibrant.
Go with the sgs2.

What the GS3 means for Android

I'm an HTC man myself but my friend wrote this piece and I thought it was really good so I thought I'd share it here and see what you guys thought

both hox and gs3 lifts the potential of android to the next level and shows android is capable of beating ios and wp7

that's a +1 for bala_gamer

do not count out the fruity company just yet. this week we shall see what their new OS version will bring to the table. should be interesting.
but as always the clean cut Bala has hit it on the nail on the coffin. hox and s3 are the best android phones of the moment and only enhance android even more

I hope this piece helps stop the whining about the little stuff both Samsung and HTC have made marvelous devices to fit our preferences whatever those may be.

my friend has an ipad and he had a 3gs before he got his new s3. he loves android but still he is a noobie. same with me..before i moved to android last year i only had iphones...although the last year they kinda did not do anything to push the iphone to the next level i still highly rate them. so as you said as well. looking with very high interest what they will bring to the table this week coming. should be interesting to see what they will find as "innovating" and time to revolutionize

Personally, I think mt HTC One X LTE runs quite poorly for the specs and is not a good representative of Android.
The GS3 is amazing though and my old phone, the Xperia S ran quite well despite the older Qualcomm S3 chipset.

I already guessed what's the next ios/iphone5 look like/features are... the ios is going to be exactly same as is now. Same layout. Same icons, same ui. Iphone5 going to be same as is now with a larger screen. No microUSB, no MicroSD , non removable battery.... .... it's time people wake up

I hope thisnisnt the case though if history is any indicator then this is exactlynehat we'll see. iOS is so stale and its time for some big changes and ideally some sort of marriage between osx and ios for the ipad- while the ipad may be the most popular tablet with the most app support, it certainly doesn't have an ideal OS or even one that capitilizes on the available real estate.

I am really looking forward to the Galaxy SIII MINI

Looks like the s3 Mini will be just as powerful with 4 inch screen. This is the perfect screen size in my opinion. I read this on technobuffalo.com

You mean this?

Apple will sue over this phone as well, claiming blah, blah, blah.

They will sue for the use of the word "mini" to 'describe an existing technology in a smaller size than the original'
Apple secured a patent on the term since nobody else has done so

Each different region gets specific models, while majority get the flagship models. In the states you can't come across a galaxy w, but over seas you can. The same goes for different galaxy phones.
Samsung is out for money, in my eyes with all these phones. The galaxy line is fine, maybe a few other phones(entry, mid an high end). Just not so many that people get confused on what the flagship device is.

They do offer loads of choices, not going to lie. Unless your a tech guy(me an xda users), you won't know which to get. I just wish they learn from htc, with their one series. The X being the best, S being a competitive mid to high range an the V being a nice entry level.
What I'm suggestion is, the S3 be like the the (one)X. Top of the line etc. Then have a second line for S an third for V.
You get what I mean?

I get that, but the galaxy name was bastardized more than a year ago tho.
They could do more to classify them though. I am with ya.
Their offerings structure in my opinion is strictly price bracket based. Someting in each range certain people can afford.
Of all things...very similar to shoes. I am cheap and it was a long time before I realized that $100 pair of aisics really are more comfortable and last longer than that $30pair. In either case though they were getting my money by offering something in every price point
Another issue is the pace at which technology is advancing. This doesnt apply here...but think ..yearly flagships...wow! Or the Galaxy note...the 2 may very likely release in only a few weeks, only 9 months after the original.

I was one that thought this screen was to big but you get use to it fast and now the note 2 seems tempting, the screen on this phone seem smaller to me now . Funny how i thought 4 inches was perfect, nope i wont go smaller than this screen 4.8 inches. my girlfriend even thought the screen was to big and now she already

I gave up trying to have the best phone. My main an only, is my sensation. When I can I might get the one x+ who knows.
Phones are coming out too fast now, it's impossible to keep up almost. Roughly every week 1-3 phones are announced(rumors, leaks etc)
Samsung just released the S3, now they are making different versions of it. Need I say more?

Are you looking forward for IPhone 5 features?

I know we all here are android fan, still i support innovation in the area of Mobile technologies (Although Apple has made me sad due to recent BS they had done with Samsung).

Well, im interested to see what apple have included in the next upgrade! i would never have another iphone though.
I dont think it will be any more powerful than the s3, and from what i have seen it has about half an inch of extra screenage!!
I would be surprised if they unlocked the OS to compete with android and the customisation, but i doubt that will happen!
maybe apple will introduce bluetooth file sharing!!!!!! every other phone has it, why not on iphones? there is a cheap £50 phone at tesco's which texts calls and takes photos. i think its a cheap rubbish Alcatel phone. it has bluetooth.
ah well, ill just stick with what i know and like. Samsung!!!!!

Yes, I expect Iphone 5 to features - 2gb RAM, Quad Cores, 3300mAh battery, 4.65" retina screen and discount 50% for all apps for 2yrs. Is that too much to expect?

Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda app-developers app

yeh im looking forward for iphone 5 but just for interesting. Had iphone 4s, phone maybe isnt so bad, but operating system is totally crap. Couldnt even send files over bluetooth...... android ftw

Here's what I know already:
1) It will still be highly dependant of iTunes.
2) Users will have to wait maybe months for a jailbreak.
3) The OS will basically still look the same as it did in 2007.
4) Still won't be able to backup the device on the memory card (ala cwm).
5) It will still have only one button - no dedicated back or menu keys.
6) You still won't be able to Bluetooth apps / movies / music to other phones.
7) Out of the box it won't just work until it's activated.
8) No removable battery of external memory card support.
9) I could seriously go on and on and on. But I've wasted enough time on crapple.
Please understand, I actually also own an iphone but once you've tasted android, ios is a major pain in the behind. Unless you are a simple person who find it difficult to do anything other than swype left to right.
Man I haven't tinkered with my iPhone since last year. I'm just bored of it and find it cumbersome to do anything on it. Believe me, it works great for messaging and taking / making calls.
I'm still on an older firmware because upgrading would mean hours and hours or restoring and re-downloading hacks, if they still work.
What pisses me off most is all the hype and media attention it gets. The S3 will still be a much better phone but still no media reports about it, on TV at least. Here in Australia all the major news networks have been talking about it's release for a week. Even today there was an ad for the morning news, which will feature the new iphone. Apple have bought out the media I think.

I used to say if Apple ever released an iPhone with 5inch screen or more I'd probably return. However, not so much now - I own an iPad Mini and can't really see much benefit to using another Apple product. Plus with my flashing addiction now, it'll never happen.

I was with iPhone from the beginning until the S3 came out, that was when I first switched over to Android, but Android has come so far now, where as iOS is falling behind. if you could flash custom ROMS on iOS... then I could be tempted back.. There's certainly no denying Apple Hardware is pretty damn good. (or run Android on Apple Hardware, I think this may be possible one day - especially as you can run windows on a MAC)

don't forget some of the chip is manufactured by samsung
and Samsung is coming out with its Tizen o/s.
don't know how it looks like in deep, might be the same with iOS.

Nah, can't stand iOS now after using Android for so long... Have an iPad 4th gen and i hardly use that because i find iOS to be just eurgh... Used to be an Apple fanboy a while back... Never again i'm afraid...

We have to wait the new version of Android first... however since I bought the note 3 I also sold the ipad air...

No I won't. The thought has crossed my mind many times but no. I won't go back to the horror called iTunes or not being able to download stuff even via safari (I used to have both an iPhone 4 and a Galaxy s1). Back then I'd have to admit IOS was better than Android. Nowadays since jellybean I wouldn't recommend IOS over anything. The fact that you will be limited in every sense of the word still makes it a big NO for me. Just my 2c.

I mean, with all the BS on one hand operation we've had to put up with for so long, they wouldn't be as dumb as to pass on that, right?
Apple is copying many of the best Android features, making itself more attractive to Android users, but in all honesty, it's not enough.
Like aluminum? The HTC one m8 is better, larger, sports better sound, and has all the Android stuff apple has not copied yet. Like better looks? The LG G3 is just amazing... Then there is price... Flagship material like the one plus one or the find 7 are half the price of the iPhone, with better specs and way more flexibility.
I don't know, I really don't see any reason to move to Apple.
