My first Android Phone, my first smart phone...most definitely the best phone I have ever owned. This phone will last me the entire 2 years of my contract without a problem. One year with the phone, with no problems. The development community is amazing to boot!
Pros: Bright display, Durable, Lightweight, nexus means you get the latest software
Cons: volume is not that great
I would recommend this to a friend!

I purchased this device when it released (almost a year ago) and I'm still incredibly pleased with this product. The newly released Jellybean OS made available has increased its performance and usability to a much more fluid pace. Given that it's a dual core processor and lacks 1 extra gig of ram compared to the SGSIII, this can still keep up in terms of speediness/responsiveness.
The design of this product is still my favorite. As it doesn't leave much to the imagination other than the amazing colors offered through its screen. That's generally how I like my devices. No marketing logos... just screen.
Also I'd like to note that I've dropped this phone a few times and it has still not given up on me. It may be made out of a plastic material. However it is quite durable.
Very fast and responsive phone. Capable of swiflty multitasking through apps without lag and amazingly preform various operations. All with a vivid large AOMLED screen.
I have switched to this phone after being an iphone user for a year. I love the screen size, clarity, and how the phone feels in hand. I wish battery life were better. I will never own a non - Nexus Google device again, as I cant stand the skins and "bloatware" providers place on their devices.
Love this phone..Has survived a few falls User friendly and quick.
Pros: Durable, Realistic color
Cons: expensive
I would recommend this to a friend!

Awesome phone, glad it finally got the jelly bean update to 4.1.1 would have rooted my phone but I was patient this time. Since the update new features like google now really bring the device to life, and being a nexus nice not to have all the additional blot ware. Only thing that ends up being a bummer is google wallet being blocked by Verizon or showing unsupported device. Beyond that great experience quick to respond lighting fast network speeds, definitely would recommend for first time android users.
