The burning question on the minds of most Android users is: “Will my device be getting upgraded to the latest OS?” Many users are still stuck on contracts, and considering a “new and improved” device comes out almost monthly, it would be financially irresponsible to keep buying these devices at full cost. Today Samsung has announced its international list of devices that are scheduled to receive the Ice Cream Sandwich update. Samsung hasn’t announced any concrete time table as to when, but we do have an idea of which ones will be first. Let’s take a look at which Samsung devices are expected to see Android 4.0 and whether there’s cause for you to jump up and down.


There’s been a lot of buzz going around about possible signal strength issues with Verizon’s LTE Galaxy Nexus. While I have yet to personally experience these issues, there seems to be enough people who have — enough so, that Verizon even tweeted about it. Today, VZW Support tweeted in response to a users questions about signal strength saying:


The only thing I look forward to more than a Nexus device itself, is the accompanying Ninja unboxing. Anyone who hasn’t seen a ninja unbox a device surely hasn’t lived. This year is no different, and with the release of the Samsung Galaxy Nexus comes the third episode of “Ninja’s Unboxing.” This years Ninja unboxing features 8-bit graphics, punching, kicking, ninja stars, and more. It’s something you’ll have to experience for yourself so I highly recommend heading over to YouTube to get your Ninja on (don’t plan on doing anything for the next 20 minutes or so). Want to know more about these classic Ninja unboxings? Watch the video and learn its history after the break.

There was a lot of commotion made when the Android community found out that Verizon had asked for Google Wallet be left out of their LTE Samsung Galaxy Nexus devices. They sited “security reasons,” but we all knew it most likely had to do with Verizon’s stake in ISIS — a direct competitor to Google Wallet. Whatever the case may be, there’s always one thing we can always count on, and that’s the Android community.

Samsung is looking to avoid any more bruising court battles with Apple over patent infringement. That desire is so strong, the CEO of the South Korean company confirms its Galaxy Nexus smartphone is designed to “avoid everything we can.”
