Design and Processing
The design index Galaxy Nexus will be familiar to any who had the Nexus S is already in hand. The Galaxy Nexus looks very similar to its predecessor. Perhaps this is due to the fact that, like its predecessor is manufactured by Samsung.
Even though the similarity is not slander, has quite a bit done on the design and processing.
Design
As with the Nexus S, the display is curved. Especially for a device of this size is an advantage. Even if people are hardly aware that Galaxy Nexus is therefore very comfortable to hold and easy to operate even a little better with one hand. As with the Samsung S2 Galaxy the device is placed on the fingers. Because if you embrace it firmly with your thumb would be not in the upper left area. For smaller hands, a device that is not great anyway possibly appropriate, but I’m used to it very quickly, keep the Galaxy Nexus Sun It should be noted however, that the smartphone so quite uncertain in the hand, and can fall out of the hand rather than when it engages with the whole hand.

The high resolution of 1280 x 720 pixels on a display that is just 4.65 inches tall, of course, also increases the pixel density. The representation can hardly be sharper and the color reproduction is very good.
The theme design is always a question of taste. For me, the Galaxy looks very noble and Nexus from an iPhone 4s looks like a toy next to it. The camera on the back, and the lettering “Google” and “Samsung” draw the attention to formal.
Also, technically I think the design to be successful. The microUSB port is (as I prefer) at the lower edge of the case. The situation was, for example, the Motorola RAZR. The toggle switch for the volume is, as at Samsung is actually common on the left side of the housing and the right edge is the power button and three dock-pins which can be used in conjunction with docking stations and similar accessories . A bit unusual but perhaps even in practice, I find the position of the 3.5-inch TRS connector. This fact is also at the lower edge of the case, right next to the microUSB port. With the headset plugged in the device so you can put down at the table or stick with the top forward in the pocket and the audio output shows in a meaningful direction.

As already mentioned, the Galaxy Nexus is very precious and not cheap. This is mainly due to the very good workmanship. Of course, these are not a aluminum chassis or other high quality raw material. The housing is made of plastic. Especially with the size of a metal housing would be more of a disadvantage, since it would increase the weight dramatically. With my Samsung S2 Galaxy I was able to make the experience that Samsung has built a very high quality plastic and the devices are thus suitable for normal use, very good.

The battery cover is not only checked, but also rubberized. So it does not slide right out of your hand when you hold it wrong sometimes. Also, the focus of the device in the middle is wearing, to which it is located at in the hand. The opposite could I find the Motorola RAZR. Here the emphasis was on top of the screen, making the device even more above could tip back away.
