    7/10 Compass doesn't work (Google Sky View, and Streetview compass mode.) Apps don't work (TV Guide and Radio.com) Google Wallet not included. You can install it, but you won't get any updates from the Market.

    I would give it at least an 8 also. I upgraded from the Thunderbolt...never looked back and no regrets. While I think HTC makes good phones and they have a good UI overlay....Sense is just not for me. With the Thunderbolt I had to force the phone to be what I wanted...with the Nexus, it came the way I wanted.

    9.5/10, but you could give it an 8.5 if you had issues with certain software related functions (speaker). You have to take at least .5 off for the camera, maybe even a full point if it's important to you.

    Rooted/Rom'ed, 9.0-9.5. Unrooted/unrom'ed, 8.5

    8/10

    I like this phone overall. I will be rooting soon to make the Nexus experience even better. I am glad I waited!

    9. Battery life is the only downside. Never had a phone where when plugged in using GPS that the battery drains. Haven't tried with lte off for the record

    If you can...confirm whether or not your car charger is 1.0 amp or 0.5amp. If its not 1.0....maybe that is causing the drain with the phone plugged into the car port

    I just experienced this with an after market charger and GPS. I figured the charger just didn't work. I was streaming Google music to my stereo via Bluetooth at the same time though lol...gnex was getting a little hot :-0

    Oh and I give it a 9.5/10. I don't really think I'm having any signal issues, however I rarely make calls. Most my complaints are just about things related to the gnex or ICS being too new (e.g. apps not working). The speaker volume is KINDA low...not as bad as everyone makes it out to be. And there's an app that can fix it anyway. It costs money in the market, but its free on the developers website. ICS is AWESOME!!! That is the best part about this phone lol. I don't want to wait a year for the rezound to get ICS, so that's why I bought this phone. Screen is super super responsive... loads better than my D1 or D2...and gorgeous too btw. It does get a little warm at times. The camera is great. I don't know what everyone is talking about...mine takes excellent pictures...for a phone. I compared it to my 12mp Sony cyber shot and the picture quality is nearly the same. But it is true that you need to hold it pretty steady to get a good shot. Maybe I'm just happy to not have the ridiculously crappy cameras that come on Motorola devices anymore battery life is meh. I really was expecting much more with an amoled screen...and now I have the extended battery. Granted, I've only had it two days and have used GPS and other things I wouldn't normally use...but my battery hasn't made it a day yet. Before I chalk it up as crappy battery life though, I need to really give it a couple days of regular use. The face unlock doesn't always work...maybe its my dark eyes. If I open my eyes wide, it usually works lol. FFC is pretty decent quality though IMO...but this is my first phone with FFC so I have nothing to compare to anyway. Stock headphones sound nice

    9/10 here. Almost a perfect device. Should have included the S2 camera and removable storage. Add those and a tad better reception and this phone is perfect (for me at least).
