Samsung Galaxy Nexus Features and Release Date Confirmed?

Adam Mills —  10/18/2011

If you’re into surprises, and you’re especially into the upcoming Samsung Galaxy Nexus, you probably want to close your browser right now because the specifications of the device have been confirmed ahead of today’s announcement. It appears Japanese carrier NTT DoCoMo has jumped the gun early and spilled the beans on the Galaxy Nexus confirming a ton of features, a possible release date and its name.

We also finally get our first glimpse at the real deal and it looks fairly similar to the render that we saw surface shortly after Samsung released teaser videos for the Nexus device.

So here’s what we got. DoCoMo says this thing is coming out in November. Droid-Life has also posted an internal Verizon document that indicates that it has a tentative launch date of November 10th. Feel free to circle that date on your mental calendar.

  1. If these are the real specs, I must say I’m a bit disappointed. “Chipset: Texas Instruments Omap4460 CPU: ARM Cortex-A9 MP Core SMP (Dual-Core) CPU operating frequency: 1.2 GHz”

    I was certainly hoping for a 1.5 Dual-Core

    and honestly, a better battery. 

  2. Not too concerned with the specs anymore. The phone will be awesome. Show me ICS.

  3. Just a 5 megapixel camera?  That’s rather disappointing.

    Did you see the PrePaid 4G tablet?

    !Que Interesante!

    I don’t need an always on for the tablet, I’m on WiFi more often. I’d rather have pay as you go with tablet data. 

    More details?
