GPU on the Nexus is an antique from 2007. ICS is showing bugs already.

My Nexus One felt great in the hand but it did have issues. The ribon cable in the power button was prone to breakage (i had to send mine in once for HTC to fix) and the capacative touchscreen controller was a bad choice.
Whilst the Nexus S doesn't feel as nice in the hand as my N1 did, it's been more reliable for me.
only the A5 equipped ipad2 and iphone4s are faster in benchmarks over at anandtech.
And iOS5 was bug-free on release?
Yes, the 4S and iPad 2 GPU's are smoking.
No, it has some, but I am sick of people touting the Nexus as the second coming. It will have plenty of bugs and glitches like, Froyo, etc. had.
True, but I'm only referring to build quality. Imagine something with the Nexus One feel but ICS and everything else perfect.

I will say that I have concerns about the overall battery stamina given the time I've spent with the phone thus far. It might just be that I've been putting the handset through its paces, but I've noticed a faster dip in battery life than I would like to see.
Quick video shows a good comparison of the two phones head-to-head...

wow this thread is full of android fans...wondered why they are even on the iPhone forum LOL
From this video, it looks like the difference in the browser benchmarks shows itself in real life use as the Galaxy Nexus' browser seems to be noticeably faster than that of the iphone 4s.
eh
Browser internet viewing it is very close...sometimes the 4s is faster and sometimes the galaxy is faster. There is really not much difference. when comparing my 4s to my mates galaxy the 4s seems quicker generally going through apps, e.t.c.
However apart from speed wise it seems to me that the 4s is better in pretty much most areas IMO.
