it is clear and easy to read
i have had the phone about a month I have found most of the features easy to use. one thing I am not happy with is the highest volume setting could do with being louder otherwise it is nice to handle good size clear sceen. i had purchased a nokia lumia which I found a nightmare to use and the font size far to small.

had this for a couple of months, moved from a rubbish motorola defy. Its fast, easy to use and very reliable!
:-)
The £21 a month on vodafone deal is the best out there too!

Great size and feel
Having moved over from a San Francisco phone on Orange this phone is much more user-friendly - the screen is a great size and now that I understand the basic functions of the phone it is easy to navigate and access. Although it is marketed as being a large phone it really isn't unwieldy and the whole screen is available to use. The sound settings get a bit of getting used to and the volume can seem quite low but that is my only negative. It has seemed very reliable. I'm very happy with this phone and have done far more with it in 1 month than I did with the last phone that I owned for 2 years.

Hmmm
It's a lovely phone but trying to connect to the Internet is a task and a half! Phone doesn't connect most of the time which is useless for an android phone! Defo would not recommend this phone

Easy to load music and connecting to various sites.

Best phone I have ever had!
I have just recieved the phone from Phones 4U. I love it so much! It looks good and the pure android experience is a visual treat. I can't even put the phone down it has so much to discover. Sent back my iPhone 4S for this one and I have to say I don't regret sending my overpriced iPhone back! This is the phone to buy right now everyone! It's great and I love it. There are a couple of reviews on here that do scare people but I have to say they are not that dramatic! This phone does get quick updates from google. It is a slightly different model from phones 4u but it gets updated only a couple of weeks later than other models. Great phone with a juicy processor.

Fantastic phone, but......
This is a great phone. Be aware that this is not a normal Nexus phone. The one Phones4u sell is a special model that is NOT updated by Google, Samsung get in the way and cause huge delays. Google for the yakjuxw version and you'll find many people complaining. The idea of a Nexus phone is quick updates. Avoid this like the plague.

Much better than Samsung GalaxY S2
Been using the Galaxy S2 for just under a year now and got bored of it, especially the cheap plastic frame which was starting to "peel" around the edges where the paint was chipping off.
Decided to go for a Nexus device as I had a HTC Nexus One and it was brilliant. I'm pleased to say, this phone is also brilliant. The screen is massive without feeling like your holding a huge phone, the design and build quality is excellent. Still has a flimsy thin plastic battery cover like the S2 but it feels a lot heavier and solid than the S2 in general.
Haven't had any problems with it at all, it has better signal quality than my S2 did, I used to have to be close to a window in my house with my S2 where as this works wherever I am in the house. Also camera has downgraded from 8 to 5 megapixel but you would not notice the quality, in addition, the camera is instant so no waiting around for it to focus like the S2. Curved screen is lovely to feel, its very subtle but its definitely noticeable.
The best thing of all.... Android updates before everyone else! Oh, one last thing, battery life has been excellent. I used to get into the daily routine of charging my S2 every night, it would normally be between 20 - 30% after 24 hours average use. Even with heavy use, my Nexus has lasted much much longer, I just 'top it up' each night now as it rarely gets less than 50%!
If anyone is having signal or battery problems, I would advise they ensure they have all the latest updates as these fix a lot of the problems which early adopters of this phone experienced.

waste of time
Dont buy this phone. the previous version galaxy s11 is much better, or the later version galaxy note is of equal quality. It kept losing signal as did a few of my mates.
