Samsung Galaxy Nexus -- Motorola Droid RAZR

On Verizon (or NTT Docomo or Three UK, and maybe even AT&T and T-Mobile)?  You know you want the Galaxy Nexus.  According to Engadget, it'll come out on Nov. 10th (a long wait) and it'll cost $300 (ouch...maybe it'll have a mail-in rebate).

A huge screen and resolution at 4.65" / 1280x720 super AMOLED.

Note: Samsung previously (as in last month at IFA) showed off the Samsung Galaxy Note, which has a massive 5.3" 1280x800 super AMOLED screen, but it runs on Android Ginger Bread 2.3, but it has not made an appearance in the US.

And Ice Cream Sandwich.



And poor Verizon folks...they have their choice of Motorola's Droid RAZR, sporting LTE, a Kevlar rear cover, and 4.3" super AMOLED screen.  Oh, and it's 7.1mm thin and has 16GB internally with a 16GB MicroSDHC card included.

Sure, it only sports Android Ginger Bread 2.3.5, but you know it'll get an ICS upgrade sooner than later.  And well, if you can't wait for Galaxy Nexus, this one will be available October 27 for $300.



Verizon folks have it tough, don't they?

Oh, and it's easy to see, Ice Cream Sandwich leaps ahead of Microsoft's Mango update to its WP7 platform, and includes all sorts of things iOS5 does not have.  Looks like Ballmer's behind again.
