There have been dozens of tech articles and reviews come out today over the GSM Galaxy Nexus release in the UK today. Have you read any reviews? What are your thoughts? Starting to get excited about the Galaxy Nexus and/or Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich? When do you think Sprint will get it, or if at all? Sound off below...

Do they release it with 3G only? They would get laughed off the face of the earth. Samsung and Google probably wouldn't go for it, either. I think Sprint holds out and there is Galaxy Nexus release on the Now netowerk.

I don't see a point in launching a dumbphone with 4g but thats a possibility too (if Moto has no device then a dumbphone or a tablet will probably also launch)

This is a nice phone and will be as well in 4-6 months when we (better) start hearing things about the 4g rollout and devices to use it.

Sprint has said they are releasing 15 LTE devices in 2012. Given they aren't going to start until mid year, that's a lot. Should feel like rapid fire.

 

 

Hopefully the GN is one of them. My upgrade has been available since August and I've been waiting for ICS. I'm at least hoping Sprint will get some ICS phones before summer. I don't think my area will even get LTE until sometime in 2013.
