Well, it didn't take long to get an alleged full frontal exposure of the Nexus Prime, the phone that Verizon supposedly passed on the Galaxy S II for, to get some exclusivity over as the Samsung Galaxy Nexus.

The leak is coming from Romania this time and there is a video as well - it seems that we are indeed witnessing what might be the first glimpse of Android Ice Cream Sandwich, if this leak holds water, and the future seems bright. 

While the front is interesting, it would be great to see the rumored metal back and curved chassis up close and personal, not to mention to solve the 5MP or 8MP dilemma once and for all, but Tuesday is close enough. The source actually says that the back is plastic, imitating metal in two shades of brown, and that the battery cover is similar to the one on the Samsung Galaxy S II, which is a bit off with what we've heard so far about the chassis, so there might still be another version floated when time comes.

Too elongated!! The icons are not appealing but other than that, that is the most sexiest and most fluid UI i have ever seen. AND I WANT ONE NOW!!!

Same here... Not a big fan of the new icons but everything else is blowing my mind! And I have a feeling that other non-amoled displays aren't gonna look good with ICS (on screen buttons). With superamoled, the blacks kind of blend in with the plastic so it looks good and meshes well together... but with a LCD display i don't think it will look too good. C'mon HTC, trust samsung and go back to amoled!

I don't feel for you, everyone knew nexus prime was coming out next week, this video changes nothing in a decision to buy a phone or not.

who said it wasnt for sprint? there is a RUMORED VZW exclusivity window. If that is true or not, that has nothing to do with it coming out on other carriers. I got a feeling this phone will be on all carriers. Who would pass it up??

Hopefully it becomes available when my 2 contract is up.
I got the Evo 2 months after it was released.

Don't fret, it'll probably only be exclusive to vzw for a while. Other carriers could get it by the holidays, or if not, at least by January.

Woww, meet all the hype!

Absolutely beautiful. Between the curved screen and the the fluid of ICS (assuming this is all real) That phone is def. the one im getting. Is it me or does a lot of the motion look as fluid as that other guy...you know..the um..fruit ppl.

Not looking to bribe, but it looks as fluid as my G2x running 2.3.3. I'm loving the looks of ICS though, and the Nexus Prime's shape and AMOLED+ICS combo make for a very sleek phone.

Not looking to bribe?? It appears as though a different word was meant there.
