Samsung Galaxy Nexus- Is it Worth the Upgrade for Samsung Galaxy SII Owners?

Google and Samsung has announced the new Android phone running Ice Cream Sandwich, the Samsung Galaxy Nexus. Until the release, Samsung Galaxy SII was the most powerful Android phone available and with this release, will Galaxy Nexus beat SGSII? We will try to compare the features and specs of both the handsets and this comparison is purely based on the available specs as Galaxy Nexus isn’t yet available for purchase.

From the features on thing is pretty clear, both the handsets do not differ much in features except for the fact that Galaxy Nexus has a still bigger screen. But the screen on SGS II itself is pretty huge, so I guess it isnt worth the upgrade just for a bigger screen. Moreover, bigger screen means, lesser battery life which is again an inherent problem of Android and I think this is still not rectified on ICS.

But if you are desperate to try out Android 4.0 ICS, you might want to get the Galaxy Nexus, but sure enough SGSII users would get it eventually at some point of time.

So its upto you to take a call on whether you want to upgrade to Galaxy Nexus or not. But if you don’t own an SGSII, then Galaxy Nexus is worth considering as a new device.
