Congrats to all the recent G-nex acquirers, I am hoping you are all enjoying your shiny new toy
I have been creeping on the forums here for some time now, waiting on this phone to be released like everyone else. Well, I finally got one and I am absolutely in love. I had the OG Droid but just recently got into the rooting business. I'm looking forward to rooting this bad boy but I am trying to wait a little bit in case I need to return it for any reason. I do have a couple quick questions for those that have had more time with it. 1) is the extended battery worth the money? I have only cycled the battery a couple times so it may get better but right now I'm getting pretty shotty battery life. And I have done most of the tricks found here. 2) I am slightly disappointed in my screen, on grey or white screens it seems very grainy looking and I can sometimes see like vertical lines. Anyone heard of this? Hoping its just my phone and I can go get a different one. Thanks for all the help everyone these forums rock!

Welcome to Droid Forums!! And I second what sbenson says. I have not noticed any grainy-ness but it might not hurt to go into a VZW store and compare to some of the demo phones there. And as far as battery I can't say I have the extended but I am getting really good battery life stock. How long are you getting out of it on average?
Here's my current. This is about average to what I've been getting. No games, not excessive use of browser, just seems crappy.

Got my Nexus yesterday! I was a day 1 buyer of the original moto Droid. It served me well for over 2 years, but dayum this new thing is sweet!
Just got home with my Nexus. So far its pretty sweet. Its quite big compared to my OG droid. To root or not to root, that is the question.
