Pretty sure that was the VZW model.
But the Sprint model should be on Amazon Wireless too. Not for $0.01 tho.

Seriously?
The galaxy nexus is a quality piece of kit, as phones go its up there with the best.
I got a galaxy S3 Wednesday and I still love the nexus.
Stock ICS > any skinned rom. Fact.

It's still a solid phone, and $100 is a pretty good upgrade price. But newer phones have come out and will continue to, so it basically comes down to what you feel is the right move. Sorry for the smart ass replies, but it's like someone asking if they should root their phone. Do a little research and make the call. Obviously the majority of us are going to say yes.

The New Nexus will probably come at around Christmas time or slightly earlier if I had to guess. Not sure about specs, but probably similar to the S3's specs.

No you bought the right device. The gs3 will still go for around $450 by CHristmas time. I sold my galaxy note for $390 and it's been out for a while now. So you can still get that Nexus.

Yea I mean no doubt that the S3 has better resale value... I'm just starting to miss the software side of the Nexus and all of the customization it has (and I love the virtual buttons and design of the phone). No doubt though, the S3 blows the Nexus away in terms of benchmarks and gaming

Yeah I know what you mean though. I used to have a galaxy nexus. Love the ROMs and the updates. I actually wanted the one x but I got this since I plan to get whatever new device is released this winter so I opted for resale value over what I really wanted. Don't get me wrong, the s3 is probably the best phone out, I just wanted to try the new htc sense.

Agreed. I also had a One X a couple months back when it first came out and it was surprisingly laggy and the multitasking did not work well at all. I'm sure all of those bugs are fixed now though

if you are eligible for an upgrade right, i would suggest to not use it, and either pick up a used Nexus or the one straight from Google's Play store. this way, you can save your upgrade for when the new Nexus comes out, but still have a good phone for right now.
upgrade to the "new" iphone then trade it for both the Note 2 and GS3. :silly:

One word.... HTC must be CRAZY!
mine was offered $179

Smh...regardless I can get $250-$300 on Craigslist.. I know I know ..duh. But not everyone will know that.
Why would HTC pay you market value for a phone when they make phones? The guy on craigslist who would buy your phone doesnt have millions of phones at their disposal.
With that in mind, its a generous offer.

haha you can never win with those guys!
This would be worthwhile for someone who doesn't want to deal with people on craigslist. I can see why some would not. I don't have time to answer 50 emails all asking if I'll take $150 for my immaculate-condition phone that is worth much more.
Luckily I can ask my wife to handle it usually but not everyone can.

Really don't understand that's not a bad price. Unless you thought HTC was going to buy a old used phone for five hundred then sell it for six hundred. That would never work

CDMA phones for you. Lose value so much quicker. My GSM was $175 offered from HTC.
That is a solid price. GSM won't fetch much more than $200 since you can get a new one for $350

Hey, I was wondering, what does HTC do with the phones they get from the trade in program? How do they benefit?
Sent from my DROID RAZR
that is a fair price. I wouldn't pay more than 175 on cl for a gsm or cdma. nexus has never retained value. People seem to want them more when they are older because of os updates.
Sent from my Nexus 7 using Tapatalk 2
For what it's worth, my GSM GNex will get me $170. My brand new HTC One X (AT&T)? $175 lol
Best Buy Trade-In is offering $356 for an unlocked GSM Galaxy Nexus in mint condition. Since mine hasn't been seeing much use lately (the GS3 is taking up most of my time), I'm considering taking advantage of this.

Hii guys,
So ive been saving up some money to buy my new phone. I initially chose the GNex since it is cheaper and other stuff. I'm from india and i thought of buying it from ebay india.
Anyway now that LG nexus 4 release date is close(will it be released in india this november ??) i'm wondering if its still a good move to buy the GNex. I heard that the LG nexus 4 have 2 gb ram etc etc better specs than GNexus ?? Is that true ??
So, i thought of ordering Galaxy nexus this week. Is that a good choice ??
If someone could help me making my choice i would thank it very much
Thanks in advance
Use common sense....plus they pulled gnex from playstore
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda app-developers app
Needing LTE or being on Verizon or any other CDMA network are the only two reasons to stay with the GNexus.
lolz.. with that spec and with that price and with you made it obvious... you still dont know the answer?? the spec are way too high than gnex. its a different case if already have a gnex, but since you didnt... oh well "go go for Nexus 4" lolz...
i'm a Nexus collector so i'm getting it while I can.

the price will most likely be similar to the gnex with minor difference..but the specs are better, so its better to wait and buy the n4 rather than get the gnex imo

We don't know if the nexus 4 will launch in India or not. Or when it would launch, if it does. Most people say it would likely be priced at 25k but no one knows for sure.
If you are willing to wait for more than a month for a possible release (which may or may not even happen) or are ready to spend over 25k to order it online and have it shipped, then the nexus 4 is a good choice.
The galaxy nexus is available right now for pretty cheap but it isn't as good as the N4.

It would have been so awesome if they still offered the GNex for like $99 off contract, that would have downright incredible, but obviously would have cut sales from the N4.
Definately not man!!!! that price is amaaaaziiingngnngngnggn!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The Nexus 4 has a better CPU, GPU, more RAM, slightly bigger and higher resolution LCD screen, wireless charging, and larger battery.
Yet unless something happens to my Galaxy Nexus I'm not upgrading because I've decided there are two things I love about the Galaxy Nexus that isn't available for the Nexus 4:
1) AMOLED screen. I don't care that it's pentile. Maybe my eyesight sucks because I can't tell the difference between pentile and non pentile 720P screens. I can tell the AMOLED screens produce colors I like.
2) Swappable battery. This is crucial for me.
With that said... I wouldn't spend more than $200-$230 on a used Galaxy Nexus... because let's face it... the Nexus 4 is still a beast of a device for the money.
even im eager to buy one here in India.. but i think u shud see this http://pricebaba.com/blog/coming-up-nokia-lumia-510-lg-l9-htc-8x-one-x
Expected price is around 30k in India.. not confirmed though.. Saw in some italian blog too that even there its going to be priced around 550 Euros according to some credible sources.. so if it costs more than double the amt compared with US, I think getting a Gnex makes sense or ask some one to get it from the US.
we are always deprived of all good things in the world or shud pay a lot to get them.. sucks
I know someone asked this question once but the answer he got wasn't solid.
Okay so currently I am a MyTouch 4g user, and I plan of going in for a galaxy Nexus. where I live, selling of fake products is what they do best.
So I was wondering if I could get solid methods or ways of checking if the device is original. Like the MyTouch 4g, I opened terminal emulator and check the Emmc chip type since there were just two types, so if the phone had a different one than the two, I could know it was fake.
So pls send in your ideas.
Thanks

Never heard of a fake android phone myself. Where are you planning on buying it that you would be worried? The galaxy Nexus is a year and a half old, I doubt anyone would bother making a fake anymore.

Flash factory image (or any gnex rom) on it. If it works, its real. If it doesn't, its fake.

There are several Chinese manufactured android phones on the market,and they have the android os on it which support android apps but aren't original.
They normally lack the original features like they may say it 16 gig internal but its actually 30 mb,and all that.

How about doing the opposite, go in to the store and tell them you want to buy a fake galaxy nexus... if they take the bait and show you one then at least you'll know what it looks like, ask them you explain what makes it fake and afterwards ask to see a real one.

I am not saying I have seen a fake galaxy nexus but I have seen a Chinese nexus 1 and a Chinese s3 mini and Chinese galaxy s duos. And they all run android, but they are Chinese , the use android 2.3 and rename it to android 4.0 and the internal memory is really small although u would see 16 gig or 32gig and to top it up it has multi-touch.
