I see tons of posts bashing the Gnexus and personally I used that phone and am getting it soon and it rocks! 100 times better that my x.

Haters gonna hate. People don't realize that the battery tends to drain quickly when the screen doesn't turn off. Oh, and the camera doesn't replace a DSLR.

It's the same thing with every phone that comes out. The people with issues are the ones posting most! Sometimes it takes a couple of exchanges to get a bug free phone and with the Nex, it's worth the trouble- big time.

people dont do research before buying a product. why wait till after you've already made the purchase to come on a forum and complain about things that were already mentioned. I came from an X as well. And this phone is much better.

It's the nature of the internet. The complaints are always louder than the praises. Most people who are enjoying their device don't feel the need to make posts about it, but those people who are having problems want those problems to be noticed by others and rightfully so.

Yeah a phone camera is a phone camera. Lol they may be better than they use to but I never am gonna exspect then to outperform a real camera. Lol also I'm sure there's ways to make your battery last. I have tweaked my x enough to make the battery last all day with extreme usage.

I am defignitly gonna order the Gnexus. :D

I don't either, I still don't like htc because of there failure of the thunderbolt. Which luckily I didn't buy since the Gnexus is out.

I've got almost 24 hrs on my extended battery with moderate usage yesterday and light usage today. The screen eats a lot of battery. Its so pretty who cares.

I was like 95/5 on the gnex/rezound, and I knew the rezound battery would be terrible.

All I will say is pay attention to the ones that had a smartphone before, used Android before, used an LTE phone before, pointed out some research by a tech site.

The battery life complaints aren't made up, especially if they fall into one of the categories above that used these type of phones before.

i love my GN, my battery is far better than my Tbolt... i agree so much negativity.... its such a buzzkill.. so many whiners.

i see post where people are whining about the LED ffs... it just not fast enough or whatever.. really?? doesnt blink fast enough? what? is that a valid complaint?

the battery isnt gonna last all day if you wake up and have the screen on all day playing games and looking for stuff to complain about.
