Best deals for the Samsung Galaxy Nexus – tech hot deal
As the first phone to hit the market running Android’s cutting edge and much applauded Ice Cream Sandwich operating system, the Samsung Galaxy Nexus will appeal to those keen to stay at the top of the technology tree
But Ice Cream Sandwich is more that just a chance to boast you’re packing a 4.0 operating system. This new OS offers vastly improved functionality; it’s simpler smoother and better than its Honeycomb predecessor. In particular, Ice Cream Sandwich offers higher quality web browsing; with a sharper display making navigation easier and quicker page loads.
Samsung Galaxy Nexus more than Ice Cream Sandwich
Of course Ice Cream Sandwich is set to be rolled out to a number of phones over the next few months– so what else can the Samsung Galaxy Nexus offer? Plenty.
The specifications on the Nexus are fairly standard for a top range smart phone with a snappy 1.2 Ghz dual core processor and 1GB of Ram. There is also a decent – although in no way market leading – 5Mp autofocus camera.
The Nexus does, however, have some blockbuster features. The 4.65 inch screen is cinematic by smartphone standards and – while it won’t be to everybody’s taste – the large display and Super AMOLED screen with 1280×720 resolution are superb for displaying photos, videos and other multimedia. Also worth mentioning is improved battery life – with its 1750mAh battery an upgrade from the 1500mAh usually featured in smartphones.

Best deal on Samsung Galaxy Nexus
We’ve been looking around for the best deal on the Samsung Galaxy Nexus when buying the phone unlocked and without a contract. Just the phone with none of the baggage.
The best deal we found on the Samsung Galaxy Nexus was over at eBay, where e-cell – a company with a 98% positive rating was offering the phone at a buy it now price of £434.99.
If shopping on eBay gives you sleepless nights, Amazon.co.uk is also carrying the Samsung Galaxy Nexus for £469.99, including postage. That’s cheaper than the £519.99 at Carphone Warehouse and a whopping £60 cheaper than the £529.95 price at Phones 4u.
