Yes. The screen is RGB stripe, not RGBG pentile which looks like crap.
Also, you will notice a HUGE speed difference.

i think if they didnt increase the resolution and upgraded the screen by 0.65", then you'd be able to tell that the pixel density was reduced.

Resolution will play a big role. NS has this weird dot matrix pixel thing that shows up on every pixel. All the newer SAMOLED Plus screens get rid of this. It'll hopefully look as fluid as an iPhones pixel density (But with better colours  )

how long did it take for the original galaxy S to get gingerbread?
I am toying with the idea to import the Galaxy S II HD
aside from time-based exlusive to ICS and minimal shutter lag/LED notification..that seems to be the superior phone

Yeah they both suck, as you'd expect. It is a phone after all. One sure is hyped up a lot though!
BTW it's not a SUPER AMOLED, so it still uses PenTile. But as such a high res I doubt you'd notice.

Apparently it's not super amoled PLUS, just super amoled. Quote: |
And if you calculate the real pixel density you will find that the Galaxy Nexus is actually closer to a "real" ppi value of 200, which is slightly lower than on the Galaxy S II (that uses a Super AMOLED Plus with RGB pixel structure). Some claim that a PenTile panel needs around 420 ppi to qualify as a Retina display and that is probably also the reason why Retina is nowhere to be found on the specs sheets of neither Galaxy Note nor Galaxy Nexus. If you are keen on a Samsung smartphone you might even find that the screen in the Galaxy S II is better.

Is the Nexus really any better than the GS2?
Larger, higher res screen with technology that's inferior to the GS2 screen and more pixels to push using that older generation PowerVR SGX540 GPU.
I think GS2 owners will be laughing when they get ICS.

Oops yeah, it's the "PLUS" that was omitted, not the "SUPER". I don't know how I got that mixed up  | |

I think GS2 owners will be laughing when they get ICS. | The Big Deal, and what most people were expecting Apple to do with the iphone 5, is moving up in resolution and a larger screen. 1280x720 man, that is the Real Deal. Larger than netbook resolutions, and just a few pixels short of the most popular laptop resolution of 1366x768  | |

So which would you all pick? Prime or Hercules?
note: I have a Nexus S with no microSD slot and that pisses me off tremendously.
