There are a lot of rumors that Google might release a series of Nexus phones soon to help manufacturers out. I have no idea if it's true, but it's worth thinking about. |

I love how well the S2 performs, but I'm not crazy about the look of Touchwiz.

I have the S3. My buddy has the new Evo 4G. I don't think you can go wrong with either device. The screen on my S3 is effing sweeeeeeet.

I was talking about the button layout. Google has moved away from a permanent menu button, but Samsung still has it. It makes it awkward with any app that follows Android design guidelines.

Its possible you may be knit-picking.

I like being able to swap the battery. Back-ups are pretty cheap on Ebay. I also like being able to add an extra memory chip for about a dollar a gig. The customization is also nice. I use the Swift keyboard and love it.
I have an SGSII and before they upgraded my OS a month ago I had an app that would make my phone a hotspot without incurring the hotspot fee (damn you Sprint.) My wife is not as technical as I am and she prefers the Iphone as everything is simpler (dummed down.) I will upgrade to the latest 4gLTE phone when Sprint rolls it out in OC next Spring - Summer. By then the SGSIV might be out! On my SGSII there is a feature called SprintID which uses a more Droid pure interface. I like it better than tw. Although I didn't have issues Touchwiz. |

Plus, I feel I am 6 months from getting a new phone so maybe I will root that and go to the next level. |

I've had the Galaxy Nexus since April- honestly, it's the best phone I've ever had. Especially since it was updated to Jellybean, it's as smooth as butta. Seamless integration with my laptop(access to the file system), waay more free apps than Apple, a big damn screen (I LAUGH at the 4" iP5 screensize), HD video recording, not having to go thru iTunes to move media files onto and off of my phone- I could go on.
I admit that the phone's body has a less-polished feel than the iPhone, but I've always cared far more about what's under the hood than the candy-apple paint job. To each his own, I suppose.

This would suck.
I like to root and flash Roms and battery removal is a must in my experience.
