Galaxy Nexus, is it calling all possibilities ?

Google announced its new, long awaited Nexus phone, which is Galaxy Nexus instead of Nexus Prime as we heard once. New Galaxy Nexus is also coming with Google’s a new version of Android named, Ice Cream Sandwich. As per the Google official blog “Ice Cream Sandwich makes Android simple and beautiful, and takes the smartphone to beyond smart”.

But is it (Galaxy Nexus) really beyond smart with its new Android 4.0 (Ice Cream Sandwich) ?

 Yes it is, Its a smart move and more of a sweetest move (All of their OS names came with name of sweets ) this time with ice cream sandwich with lot of eye candy. With the overall major UI change in google they have decided to reflect that also on Andriod too which is impressive. This simple UI and elegant design theories new will make Andriod a more beauty that tends to attract more stake holders to its market share.

Screen size is notable improvement with another smart move which is replacing physical buttons with software buttons that will be again screen area. Also quite a good improvement in terms of resolution 720 x 1280 pixels in 4.65 inch area provides a avg. of 316 ppi pixel density. Compare to Samsung galaxy SII its massive (~217 ppi pixel density) .

Allowing users to unlock their phones using face recognition (google says its smile recognition but it should have more depth in it as I believe) is the smartest among the Android 4.0’s new features.

New improved Voice recognition, voice command and interaction features also smart enough.

Ice Cream Sandwich also brings some much-needed improvements to Google's photography software, Also panorama brings its Camera Features to next level of rich photography. 

Is it really calling all possibilities ?

With Android Ice cream Sandwich Galaxy Nexus is smart enough, but I don’t believe its calling all possibilities as they mentioned in their combined product launch of Galaxy Nexus. Because comparing to some of other android phones (Galaxy S II, DROID BIONIC, Sensation XE) is way beyond the Galaxy Nexus or equal in terms of hardware and some other features as per below. Also most of them are released months back so its not suitable to say Galaxy Nexus calling all possibilities.

Significant Disadvantages of GALAXY Nexus compare to other competitive phones

• Screen is Super AMOLED, not Super AMOLED plus
