New report reveals Galaxy Nexus is really a “developer phone.”
The mistake is arguably acceptable because we’re human and we learn from it. A customer reportedly received a bad Galaxy Nexus (or Nexus Prime if you prefer) unit containing “weird” developer applications used to test the unit.
According to the report posted by Engadget, a Galaxy Nexus (not the Verizon variant) customer from United Kingdom mistakenly received a developer Galaxy Nexus unit, and the unhappy customer has reported the incident to the AOL Tech site.
But the developer phone is not actually the issue (because he can still exchange it if I’m not mistaken), the real issue here is the bad PR. Samsung has tweeted the picture of the guy… because he was the first customer to purchase the device.
Samsung UK, the team that tweeted the photo of UK’s first Galaxy Nexus customer, is not yet responding to the customer’s claims.
The good news: Galaxy Nexus is now available here on earth, and lucky UK customers can now purchase the first Android Ice Cream Sandwich device, while US Android fans are still waiting for the much-anticipated Verizon Wireless model packing LTE or Long Term Evolution.
According to rumors, the Verizon Galaxy Nexus may arrive this month, and the possibility of other variants for other carriers still exists based on an FCC document and the non-exclusivity of Verizon Wireless.
