My wife literally locks on within 5 seconds, even when I'm in my house heading out. It was much faster for sure than my G2 (previous phone).
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bjrosen:
GPS on GN is excelent

The GPS hardware on the GN is really accurate, my complaint is with the way it handles phone calls when you are using navigation. When a call comes in the phone app jumps to the foreground, when the phone call ends the phone app stays up. To add insult to injury the screen then goes blank. I've gone back to my Garmin.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] gpfnzl:
GNEX gps is lightning.

Out of the box it was quicker than any i had used before.

After installing AOKP and radio xxla2 i can lock on to 7-10 satellites (normally 8or9) in well under 10 sec's.

I believe it is a European radio, but I live in New Zealand and was recently in Thailand which locked on to 7/8 satellites in under 10 sec's

I have now installed the JB radio with the same results but a better phone signal.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jnralp00:
Thanks for the responses guys. It kinda irks me to buy a phone add old as the nexus... But it's a great deal IMO, and I really need something. This G2x is driving me crazy.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] craigbailey1986:
As old????

O wait we are talking in phone years huh....still 8 months and still one of the best phone on the market....can't beat that!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] gpfnzl:
The hardware is oldish and has lower specs than some phones now....

But probably the fist phone to receive 4.1 + 4.1.1

The support for the phone is fantastic and the dev's here at xda are non-stop adding features,stability and speed.

Tools, Roms, Kernels, Radios.... will be developed on this phone first.

Outta the box a good phone, the guys at xda make it a f#%*$n great phone.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] speedyink:
I just got mine a month ago. My requirements were AMOLED and 720p screen, and the Nexus is still my choice if I were to buy one now. The only time I'll be feeling the need to upgrade again is when they release a phone with an AMOLED 720p using the RGB sub pixel layout. In the Nexus line anyways, I can't be on the update backburner now after being first in line.

processor/gpu, meh, it's a touchscreen only phone, I don't use it for high end gaming. Otherwise all the high end phones perform pretty damn similar the rest of the time, regardless whether it's quad or dual core.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jnralp00:
Ordered it this morning. Now I'll play the waiting game.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] I Am Marino:
This phone's specs have been passed and will be floored by others in the next year, but as a Nexus phone, it'll always be relevant.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dragontology:
If you posted an app I downloaded or just thought was cool, and hadn't heard of before, you got a Thanks from me.

For those asking what they are, it is very easy to search Google Play. In Firefox you can add Google Play as a search provider. Find it on Mycroft (Google it). While Google Play is active in your search box, highlight the name of the app in the forum, right click, and choose "Search Google Play for...". In Chrome, it's a little harder. The easy way is to go to Google Play, right click in the search box and choose to add it as a provider. Then change the keyword to something you can remember, like "gp". Now hit CTRL+T to open a new tab, then in the Omnibox type "gp [app name]" and enter. The better way? Get the extension Context Menu Search. Now go to Google Play and search for TESTSEARCH. Copy the URL, hit Wrench/Spanner, Tools, Extensions, and then Options under Context Menu Search. Now under Link near the top paste the search URL. Then add the name Google Play. Be sure to hit "Add new option" under that. Now highlight an app name, right click, choose Context Menu Search, then select Google Play from the list.

Hit thanks if that helps (usually above begging but hey, took a couple minutes typing that out, haha).

Anyway:

SeriesGuide - Watch a lot of shows? This episode logger lets you mark off episodes as you watch. You can also check into GetGlue with it if that's your thing. Also see episode summaries. I watch a ton of shows and swear by it!

FBReader - By far, my most used app. It's an ebook reader. If you can find .epub books online, and I know you can ;) you can read them on your phone. Margin-free, full screen reading, completely customize the page. I have read about a dozen books on it. It's good stuff.

I use many more apps than that, but they are all considered more well known, I think.
