The Samsung Galaxy Nexus was the first smartphone to officially receive Android 4.0 aka Ice Cream Sandwich. The Galaxy Nexus was launched in Hong Kong on Oct 19 2011 and has debuted commercially in Europe as a carrier-free and unlocked GSM phone, and later arrived to the USA under the same name on the Verizon network. Although its internal hardware is pretty much equivalent in performance to the older Galaxy S2, the Galaxy Nexus has a great design with a curved glass 720p display. It is powered by a TI OMAP 4460 with 1GB of RAM and a Power VR SGX540 GPU.
