question:

Does the barometer help to determine outside temperature and pressure ??

So I can have a complete track of my routes, not only coordinates

I own a SGS2 and an ipad, although the feel of the ipad is nice, but the SGS2 has been dropped several times from my hand while using it and it is still like new! before judging what type of build quality it has, shut up and try holding the phone, otherwise you will just look like an oblivious idiot who wants to sound like he actually knows something!

The build quality of the Galaxy Nexus is superb. The back is made from grippy plastic (intriguingly called Hyper Skin), while the display has gotten the oleophobic treatment. Both features leave absolutely no room for fingerprints. While many might frown over the lack of any metal in the device’s construction, we do believe that the weight benefit from this step is well worth it. ....THE BUILT QUALITI IS SUPERB???????????????????????????? HOW MUTCH IS SAMSUNG PAYING YOU NOT TO TELL THE TRUTH???? THAT IT IS CHEAM PLASTICCCCCCC THAT COSTS HEM ALMOST NOTHING..AND IN RETURN THEY ASK FOR A LOT OF MONEY ON THE PHONE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! JERKSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The same thing was said about the nexus s, that it runs outdated hardware and that it s weaker than the competition, and it still is a hell of a phone, even with the ICS update.

Why would you get this phone when the Galaxy S 2 is miles better and when it gets Ice Cream it will beat it even more

Phone specs keep getting better these day, so as the screens they keep getting bigger. HOwever, why do they keep forgetting to add a camera shutter/button with all that space, width, length and bulk. HOW HARD IS IT? Enlighten me, pls?!

I have a Galaxy Nexus GSM version in hand. And I can definitly say that it has MHL capabilities. I watched several videos on my tv. I use the original Samsung MHL-adapter.

I previously asked the question: does Galaxy Nexus support TV out? I got the answer: yes via MHL. However, your review states TV-out is not supported. So is TV-out supported or not?
