Just saves a lot of effort from both sides in the future.... Google is the keeper of all knowledge.. Not me, not XDA, not anyone else..

YOU ARE RIGHT! thanks for replying.

The cpu's are both very close with maybe a slight edge to the Nexus. Hard to say how much of an impact ICS plays though. In terms of the GPU, the mali-400 is quite a bit better than the PowerVR used by the Gnex.

Regardless, I'm sure Google's firmware (most likely with YAFFS2 filesystem) will be a lot more smooth/crisp compared to anything Samsung usually offers...

Mod edit: foul or abusive language not to be used on XDA read the rules as XDA is used by many minors... infractions will be placed.
Read your pm take head and don't ever take the stance of editing a mod post the above is rules if you can't follow feel free to not use XDA as you'll head that way anyway!

Check device database for specs of both devices. "Top of forum page"
I've played with GNex and have to say it pawnd the SGSII if had the cash it'd be in the bag..

Where's the Thread?

Well, this is meant more as a post, but where'd that universal ICS thread go off to, now =0? This will get locked soon, anyway, but yeah, just two pieces of news, maybe good, maybe not, that I saw recently: the first being, DesignGears leaving the Galaxy Nexus, but going to the SkyRocket. Not sure that's good or bad. Of course, they're two different phones, but I think he helped them out so maybe he's just jumping phone to phone?
And the second being that the SkyRocket just got an ICS leak from out of nowhere, fully functional as well, which really threw me off as the SkyRocket is a specific branch of the Galaxy S II, not exactly the international version or anything. We were supposed to get it a lot before them, but so much for those dreams. Regardless, I do appreciate the load of work put in by the developers and I'm not throwing that away at any point, but yeah, it's interesting overall. In the long run (which might just be a week or two after now maybe, who knows), us non-SkyRocket's will be better off with a phone that's faster overall, but yeah, did not expect any of this to happen.
Just an update for those of you who haven't heard yet/ cares ?

I would suggest that you try to find a i9100. But as far as the I9100g, why don't you take a look in their development forum and see if you like any of their stuff

How could anyone who doesn't own either of those phones possibly tell you that ? Have a look at the specs & features of both phones & make your own decision.

Thing is, i777 has it's own forum. So unless someone owns both an i9100 and an i777, then an i777 owner probably isn't going to read this

Omg ppl if you can't help me is better to not answer! Here is the ppl that have i9100 exynos and i9100g TI OMAP. So i777 is the same as i9100 chipset so that's how ppl can help. Sometimes is better to stay quiet. Ty for your help :sly:

The point is, you're not bright enough to understand there isn't anyone likely to read this that can give you an honest opinion. Anyone who does give you an opinion is speculating, and if you value someone else's speculative opinion over your own considered research, again, you're clearly none too bright.

I don't own either, and certainly not both (as others have pointed out, the likelihood of you finding such a person is slim), how do I vote?
Maybe a moderator will add "best device" to this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1612881 which really should go without saying in a device's subforum.
One can only hope.

Isn't the same thing, the thing is that KERNELS/ROMS can be obtained for anyone here, phones not, you have to buy it or knowing somebody that have it, so if any of you haven't those phones is ok i'll keep waiting for someone that can help me like the first person that post here. So like i said if anyone can give me a answer to this post why you waste your time answering anything that meybe doesn't help me? (I'm not saying that you did that) Cheers..

The guy who posted from his I9100 in the I9100 forum told you he recommends the I9100? Shocker. Must have been really useful information to you.
Look, I'll make this as clear as I can. Your post asked for people's preference between the phones. That would require someone having owned all three. The chances of finding someone who actually has owned all three of the variants you are inquiring about would be, as oinky stated, slim.
Get whichever one you want, they'll all perform fairly comparably. Just be aware that firmwares and kernels tend not to work between them, so stay within the forum for whichever device you get when looking for such things.

Is that important if that info is useful or isn't for me?? Because is my thing if i get that useful, He answer my question thats it..

[Q] Which one should I buy?

Hye everyone,
1-Samsung Galaxy SIII
2-HTC One X
3-PSP Vita
If i buy 1 or 2 I'm going to sell my SII..
HTC One X looks and feels is really good, I don't mind touching it for the whole day even if I have no friends to call me, but overall specs isn't that impressive if compared to SIII, but SIII body and buttons and everything looks like mammy purse or ultra portable makeup case, or face with acne scar and it hurts me.. samsung.. you hurt me..
Anyway what's your opinion guys?
Who cares ? There are hundreds of these threads already. We don't need another one :-/

I don't want to upgrade my phone, but development gets interesting when there's a better device.. from my experience of being non-experience in world of technology, when there's a better device... A line has been drawn for older device, except for someone is a hardcore programmer....
Now.. talking about PS Vita... mmm.. now that's a device... now guys, let's buy vita, keeping our S2 and stop moving to other devices.

[Q] Why did i9305 get 2Gb RAM?

I am really pissed at Samsung for giving the i9300 1Gb RAM and the i9305 2Gb RAM.
I feel cheated. My S3 was my graduation gift and the big smartphone nerd that I am, I like to have the best. Then why the f*** did Samsung have to do this?
Also the Note 2 got 2Gb RAM. Hell I could've bought the Note 2! It's way better! Battery life and all! And dammit it sold forthe same pricetag!
I9300 lags horribly with the TouchWiz launcher and Samsung ROMs but the Note 2 and i9305 JUST DONT LAG!
What's done is done. I can't sell my S3 and buy a new phone now. I just want closure. WHY DID SAMSUNG HAVE TO CHEAT ME SO BAD?
P.S.: What are the differences between i9300 & i9305 except the LTE and 2Gigs?
*I HATE SAMSUNG*

Your question is "why did Samsung fail me so badly?"
I'm really not sure how you expect anyone to answer that.....hence.....words fail me
Now before you gird your loins and engage battle mode.....please ask yourself exactly what kind of response you are expecting?
Edit....by the way, Q belong in Q&A
Read this thread. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1739030&page=2
They say i9305 has a dual-core. Well GSMArena specs say otherwise! http://m.gsmarena.com/samsung_i9305_galaxy_s_iii-5001.php
Regardless, the Korean S3 has both! Exynos Quad and 2GB RAM! Like the Note 2! F*** SAMSUNG!

Well I spent the full price for it at the time, 570 euros and I regret doing that. Should've stuck with my Gnex until the N4 and then bought that.
1 Gb is not the problem. Crapwiz is. Install an AOSO Rom and see how good multitasking can be. On the other hand you can still despise Samsung for not releasing sources
