Samsung Galaxy Nexus discussion

See Android 4.0 Platform Highlights

Nowhere does it mention hardware acceleration. Maybe it is not possible to include hardware acceleration because so many different types of devices with various GPU SOCs are used...

Google has probably left the implementation of Hardware acceleration to device makers...

[Confirmed] Ice Cream Sandwich To Feature Hardware Acceleration

Seriously people, check the SDK. It is very brief and human readable. Get your facts right before jumping into conclusions.

And for your information, ICS features h/w acceleration.

I guess I was wrong about the hardware acceleration part...

Droid Razr getting ICS in early 2012
AndoidOS.in
But the question is, when will either of the devices be available in India? TBH, the moro device is a lot more appealing to me than the Nexus... 4.3 with qHD Super Amoled is more than enough. 4.65 is pushing the limits. Plus the kevlar infused body and super slim design grew on me a lot more than samsung's design..

RAZR has Droid branding which means its coming to Verizon, which is a CDMA network. Won't be seeing it in India any time soon.

 

[Soumik]

Its a dual antenna phone. It can receive both GSM and CDMA signals. Its 'worldwide' release is supposed to be somewhere in November. For now its Verizon exclusive.
But i do have doubts if that 'worldwide' ratings include india...

But don't get surprised if it doesn't have more than one hour worth of battery life.

^^Maybe that news of battery life of 10 times has come at a right time!

Btw, that specs are so dazzling!!!

I was referring to Galaxy S3, read the first post of this thread.

Btw, it has already been launched in UK.

Edit: And...the AOSP build of ICS for Google Nexus S is now available.
