November is almost over, now let’s talk about the the Galaxy Nexus December release date rumors.
United States will not get the Verizon Galaxy Nexus this month, that’s the fact and it looks like the volume bug is the “bug” to blame and not the Motorola Droid Razr. Apparently, the volume bug has been fixed because it is software and not hardware-related, so it means the phone is ready for prime time in North America.
Let’s all forget about the November rumors because the month is almost over and still no sign of pre-orders event. Yesterday’s rumor said Verizon Wireless will start accepting pre-orders for the Galaxy Nexus, but the carrier’s site displays a “no such event.” But here’s the catch, Tuesday midnight is still possible so keep those crossed fingers, and your credit card.
Now, let’s talk about a new report from Droid Life about the Android Ice Cream Sandwich update that will power the Verizon Galaxy Nexus (or Best Buy’s Nexus Prime), the Android 4.0.2. According to the blog site, a source who is testing the Verizon Samsung Galaxy Nexus and cites the possibility of the Android 4.0.2 version for the LTE variant to come loaded on release date. According to the last (and still possible) rumor, the Galaxy Nexus of Verizon Wireless will arrive on December 8th.
Aside from the release date rumors, the rumors about the price tag of the Galaxy Nexus also circulate. Two contradicting reports are currently available. One is claiming that Verizon Wireless will use the $199.99 price tag, and the said rumor is obviously based on the lost document about Verizon’s plan to release the Galaxy Nexus last Black Friday.
Another rumor about the phone’s price tag said Verizon will still use the premium $299.99 price strategy because the Galaxy Nexus is an LTE device and it is considered as “high-end” or the aristocrat of the new Android which includes the new user interface, “less fragmented” and more versatile application support aside from the beautiful widgets and native Google apps.
Best Buy’s funny Galaxy Nexus listing, or Nexus Prime according to them, said the phone’s 32GB model will sport the tag price of $299.99, but no word about the 16GB. In other countries, the 16GB Galaxy Nexus with HSPA+ data technology is the only available variant, so it looks like the United States market will get a fatter (in storage) phone, or maybe, Verizon will release two models to attract more customers.
Either way, the Galaxy Nexus will arrive next month, and the best release date hints will be the pre-order date, and the “calling all” beautiful ad blitz.
Meanwhile, we’ve been told by our third-party retailer friends that the first Galaxy Nexus stock will arrive in Asia later this week and first delivery will be made early next week. The Galaxy Nexus variant for the Asian markets is the 16GB Galaxy Nexus with HSPA+.
Another event worth mentioning, the Verizon Galaxy Nexus will arrive before Christmas of this year.
