honestly, i'm a little disappointed , being a galaxy S2 fan despite my S2 cracking the **** twice and needing to go back to samsung under warranty.

I was hoping a display that would beat the apple crowd or at least match it.
And as many of the hands on overviews mention... it looks ok... just ok.
I was fully prepared to buy one even though i just got a HTC One X.... doesn't look likely anymore

Will have to wait and see how it performs.

Kinda glad i got the OneX now. It looks kinda meh to me tbh.

If it outperforms the OneX by a mile i will be surprised, otherwise it's a bit of a dissapointment.

but it has an notification LED :D

actually i don't mind the design, Much rather it in black which i'm sure will be an option. Might wait for a couple of reviews to see how it feels before getting one like i've planned

Yeah I like having that on the nexus, So I can understand why it would appeal to you.

Hate to break the bad news to you, but if MobiCity is anything to go by, the only two options you have are Marble White or Pebble Blue :( (I too prefer a black phone) :(

Apparently the Galaxy S3 was the first smartphone to be completely designed by lawyers.

Started off great. Less than a day and touchscreen is completely unresponsive even after factory reset. Will take it to optus shop and complain loudly.
