  • Been nothing but an overall great experience so far
  • Has a solid connection... as often as a Verizon LTE device can have one, anyway!
There's gotta be some of you out there, right? ;)

I'm in a good 4G area, which probably helps, but my Gnex has been really solid so far. It's bashed a lot, so I wanted to hear from the ones who don't speak up as often... those that have had a positive experience. I keep worrying it's going to falter on me, based on what I'm reading, but so far so good... And the battery life is not unexpected given the size of the battery and what this phone is doing. It's not great, obviously, but not bad either. (c'mon Tbolt owners, help me out! :tongue:)

Mine has been like butter. I love it...over 100 apps installed and no serious issues to speak of. Best Android experience so far.

It's a great 4g phone. But if you aren't in a strong 4g area the connection is horrible.
I travel often and I know the difference!

I love the phone but it needs to get better. It's very frustrating.

My first Nexus gave me a rocky first impression of this device. But once I returned it and got a working one, I absolutely LOVE this phone. I live outside of Pittsburgh, so my 4G connection is generally pretty great. If I am in high populated areas, I usually have full bars of 4G service. Handoff between 3G and 4G isn't bad either, I use Google Music as my music player in the car, and I almost never experience buffering and have minimal load lag between songs as well. The phone is simply snappy as hell. It almost never lags, and multitasking is amazing. The pure Android experience is like no other, since I only had my OG Droid for a little while before I got the DX for the larger screen.

My only gripe with my particular device is that I have a bit of a yellowish tint on certain colors at certain brightnesses, but the ColorControl of Franco Kernel has helped that tremendously. It only seems to be really bad when I am charging my phone and it gets a bit hot. Other than that ONE complaint that is only aesthetic, this phone is fantastic.

This Phone is the only worthy replacement for the OG i could find, nothing but good things since release day... well with the exception of a toilet dive..

I get occasional reboots, but that's under heavy use usually. Second phone, no discernible difference between phone one and two. Been on liquid since beta3.

I'm pretty happy though, previous phone was the D1.

I upgraded to the Nexus from the Bionic (which I was happy with after the latest update) and I am VERY happy with the Nexus. I can't think of any times it rebooted itself nor has it lost data. Best android phone I've owned by far.

Got one reboot in the first week, then I chucked all the questionable apps I had just loaded and it's been 100% perfect since.

Love the display, look, feel, voice quality, 4G/3G connection and transitions, construction, development support, accessory support and ICS.

The GNex is freak'in AWESOME!!
