The new best Android device specs have been revealed. Possible VZW exclusive, woot. Samsung Galaxy Nexus full specs revealed; Verizon Wireless exclusive
Screen is a little big for me, but I may buy this just because it is a Nexus device. Been wanting a pure Vanilla experience since the Droid. Just don't know if I can deal with a 4.6 screen.

I hope the screen size isn't too big, because I want this phone as well.
I was hoping for an 8 MP camera, but MP don't always tell the quality of pictures.
Looking forward to it being released.

Agreed, that the screen might be a tad big, but I don't care! I want this phone. I want it bad. I want it now! Please, Samsung, just tell me when I can have it.

I am kind of disappointed they are using the OMAP and not the Exynos. If I remember correctly the Exynos is much more capable, including having a better GPU. I believe the GPU on the iPhone 4S is better than the one on tis OMAP, not too sure though.

The best carrier/manufacturer Android OS overlay is no overlay. Having had a Nexus One I miss that Vanilla Android experience, simple, clean and easy. People that rave over Sense (which I find overdone) and other carrier OS skins don't know how Android is supposed to be experienced. I'm glad to see another Nexus device again and I can't wait to see what it looks like.

I'm loving the screen size personally! The only thing i'm wondering about is if there is going to be a microSD slot or if the 32GB internal storage is it. I think the resolution is going to be fantastic, and while it may only be a 5MP camera..if the internals of it are top notch..then it will still be top notch (think i4).
Wonder when Canada will eventually release this though..

The screen may not be "too big" after all considering rumor has it that there are no "button" on the bottom. The touch buttons will be a part of the screen basically like Honeycomb tablets. If that is the case, the device may be the same size of a 3.7-4 inch screen device.
And yes, this is the "Nexus Prime".

I also hope the curvature shown in pics is a bit exaggerated.
If it weren't for the 4.6" screen, I'd probably pre-order this device. As it is, 4.3" screens are not my cup-o-tea, but have become somewhat more attractive to me with newer displays going nearly to the edge of the device, thus keeping the overall device size down.
I'm thinking I will hold off until I get one in hand to test-drive first, just to be sure.

Different source with different specs... EXCLUSIVE: We get the allegedly proper Nexus Prime specs - GSMArena.com news
I hope this article is more accurate. If it is... I hope and pray that ICS has a GPU accelerated UI. Then I'll simply drool.

other more trusted sources say BGR is not quite corrrect. I tend to agree. The GSM arena specs look more likely
