Samsung Galaxy Nexus – the first device to feature Andrioid 4.0 (Ice Cream Sandwich) – can already be found in the UK market despite having not being launched Stateside. The comparisons between it and others on the market have already started.
AnandTech has started off with a few benchmark tests, which scrutinize devices in key areas, scoring points depending on its capabilities, and then compared with competitors on the market.

You can see from the graph the tested browsing speeds of Samsung’s latest offering. Even though the difference might be minor, such everyday tasks must be fluent and easily executed as possible. And from what you see, it out passes the Galaxy S II by a double, which is not certainly a slow device.
However, Galaxy Nexus doesn’t have everything its own way despite dominating on most fronts. iPhone 4S, with its dual-core A5 chip, outshines the Samsung rival in the GPU loading stakes which is very important for smooth game play.
