We already know that Samsung is again doing the Galaxy Nexus for Google and will be called Nexus Prime but what still remains a mystery is what’s inside the hardware.

BGR got a reliable information of what to expect once the Google Nexus Prime is revealed next week, October 11.

Google Nexus Prime
4.65-inch Super AMOLED HD display @ 1280×720 pixels
Texas Instrument OMAP 4460 Cortex A9 dual-core @ 1.2GHz
1GB RAM
32GB internal storage
WiFi 802.11 b/g/n
HSPA+/LTE
NFC
5MP rear camera
1.3MP front-facing camera
Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich
1750mAh Li-Ion battery

It’s not as thin as the Galaxy S2 but at 9mm, it’s still pretty close. It is said to have a curved glass design. More details about this over at BGR.

I’m sure Android fans are already excited and we’ll soo finally see how it looks like next week.

the price must be an issue (hope i’m wrong). And the camera is a so-s0 5megapixel (not even a Carl Zeiss). cant see the slightest chance to dethrone its older brother SGS2

If the image above is the actual phone design, then it’s a wow thing! minimal button, curved glass and a shiny metal outline will be a good industrial design. We just hope for a not so high price. Specs – more than enough.

No more ugly buttons for sandwich. So suddenly current android owners are outdated and will be enduring those ugly 4 buttons for a while.

even if the ‘megapixel myth’ is true, i hope it packs an 8mp shooter as opposed to 5, i’m good with 8mp but not 5 since ive been stuck with a phone with 5mp camera for 1.5 yrs now.

Perhaps it’s time to replace my Nexus One…

karl · 15 years ago

jonaflormicfren · 15 years ago

The gadget is certainly use for connection and processing.

Iyan Sommerset · 15 years ago

Updated specs from Engadget:
http://www.engadget.com/2011/10/06/samsung-galaxy-nexus-specs-leak-headed-to-verizon-as-an-exclusi/

– Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich
– 9mm thin
– 4.65-inch 1280 x 720-pixel Super AMOLED HD – with curved glass
– ***Samsung Exynos processor clocked at 1.5Ghz
– ***PowerVR SGX543MP2 GPU (same as the iPad 2 and iPhone 4S)
– 1GB of RAM
– 32GB of built-in storage
– ***8-megapixel camera on the back, 1.3-megapixel in the front
– 1080p HD video capture support
– LTE/HSPA depending on carrier
– Wi-Fi a/b/g/n
– NFC

These specs line-up more with what is expected of the new Nexus. Hopefully it will hold true. But with every rumor, it should be taken with a grain of salt (iPhone 5 anyone?). :)

Copy and paste fail, add to that a 2,050 mAh battery. :)

orange senorita · 15 years ago

This is going to be so much better than the iPhone4s! Excited for the Ice Cream Sandwich to come out too!

e30ernest · 15 years ago

I’m a bit skeptical with this early leak. The specs look nice but I’m hoping for a bit more. That battery for example looks a bit small for an LTE device with a huge screen.

The big story here however isn’t this device, but Ice Cream Sandwich. That version of Android will probably be the biggest Android release yet. I hope it won’t disappoint!

Holy effing specs! Sammy is really giving Apple a run for it’s money. If this is around the 30k mark (which I doubt but still hopeful for), then it will be very tempting to buy this. =/

Jhay · 15 years ago

The feature that excites me the most about this phone is that it’s running on Android 4.0

“weâ€™re still hearing that the Galaxy Nexus will be a Verizon Wireless exclusive here in the U.S., so itâ€™s time to check out those contract end-dates if youâ€™re on another carrier and you plan to scoop up the latest pure Google smartphone.”

Pano to baka saatin nasa Tatlong Network lang ang ma kakakuha Globe, Sun, or Smart. Sana SUN NA LANG AHAHA PARA ASTIG YUNG PLAN PARANG yung sa Blackberry ko :D para mapalitan na phone ko damn.
