Please note that since there are so many difference between the devices, the focus of this article, mainly, will be to address the hardware differences. We all know that the operating system plays an important role in consumer selection and purchase.
With the Galaxy Nexus, you will always have the most up-to-date version of Android — currently at version 4. Given the specs of both devices however, it certainly is possible, though it will depend on whether Samsung, or the carriers, will want to provide users the Jellybean experience.
The Galaxy S2 is already considered the best phone at the moment by many, and ICS will improve on what Samsung has already done. In all likelihood, the Galaxy S2 will fare the best considering its current sales effect, while the Galaxy Nexus will win with Google Purists, and the Galaxy Note among the business savvy and creative group. The Note has a 1. Considering all factors, the user experience is consistent throughout all 3 of these Samsung products.
Hence, processor speed should not be a necessary motivation for consumers to prefer one device over another.
After a quick hands-on session with the Nexus during the Galaxy Note World Tour, I find the camera acceptable and the instant snapshots a useful too. Thus, the Nexus doesn't only have a higher resolution and ppi count, x is also the native resolution of Ice Cream Sandwich, the latest version of Android. Heck, even the resolution ratio of S II is skewed in comparison with that of Nexus. Curved Glass - I am aware that this point is a very subjective one.
But then again, I am yet to find many peeople who did not love that curved glass display of Samsung Galaxy Nexus. That's not to mention the fact that both the S2 and the Note come with loads of Samsung-installed bloatware apps you almost certainly won't want, and would rather delete as soon as possible.
When it launched, the Nexus was stricken with a bug that caused it to spontaneously drop volume. Happily though, that bug has now been fixed, meaning we're more than chuffed to throw the software prize to the Nexus. It's worth saying though, that this is only a temporary disctinction -- the S2 and Note will soon be updated to ICS.
We weren't impressed by the Note's battery life -- that massive screen appears to guzzle juice, and we got less than 12 hours of use from a full charge, even with moderate use.
The S2 and Nexus, meanwhile, are decent when it comes to battery life. No smart phone is great when it comes to surviving away from the mains, but based on our tests the S2 and Nexus should both last last you a full day's use.
The S2 is a magnificent mobile, but we can't overlook the fact that the Nexus is running a whole new version of Android. So even though the S2 boasts a better design, the Ice Cream-flavoured Nexus is a better blower overall. Congratulations Nexus, you're the best Galaxy phone out there. Did we miscalculate?

Luke Westaway. Samsung Galaxy S2 The Samsung Galaxy S2 is an absolute beast, and when it came out earlier this year it proved itself to be the best Android phone in the universe.
Samsung Galaxy Note On the off-chance you didn't think the Galaxy S2 was big enough, the Note will certainly sort you out. Design The Galaxy Nexus boasts a rounded display, adorned with black gloss and kept looking minimal by a lack of physical buttons.
Design winner: Samsung Galaxy S2 Hardware The Galaxy S2 blew our tiny minds when it first arrived on the scene, thanks to a dual-core 1. Hardware winner: Samsung Galaxy Note Software While all three of these phones are running Android, one of them is different.
Software winner: Samsung Galaxy Nexus Tiebreak We weren't impressed by the Note's battery life -- that massive screen appears to guzzle juice, and we got less than 12 hours of use from a full charge, even with moderate use.
So the Note is out, leaving just the S2 and the Nexus.
