Apple announced the newest version of the iPhone this Wednesday, ceremoniously dubbed the iPhone 5 at a press conference in San Francisco, California. The
iPhone 5 carries in the tradition of the iPhones that have come before it. It's extremely sleek, fast and lightweight.
Although the iPhone 5 is a champion among smartphones, there are also several Android phones that are capable enough to compete head-to-head with Apple's innovative product. Previously, we've compared the
Samsung Galaxy S3 to the iPhone 5, but for those consumers considering the Galaxy Nexus, we've decided to cook up our own comparison to help you decide.
The battle between the
iPhone 5 and the
Galaxy Nexus is a competition on many levels. First and foremost, it is a competition between Apple iOS andGoogle Android, two of the top operating systems among handset makers. Furthermore, it's a competition between hardware providers Apple and Samsung. Finally, it's a competition of something more abstract. It's a question of what's faster, stronger, better, sleeker and ultimately, cooler.

Here's how the
iPhone 5 stacks up against the Galaxy Nexus:
Operating system: The
iPhone 5 comes preinstalled with the latest version of Apple's mobile operating system, iOS 6. Apple claims to have made more than 200 tweaks and additions to the new operating system, many of which are geared toward making a more seamless experience across all Apple devices. Among the many new features that have been added, the Notifications Center on the phone will be even more organized and provide better information about calendar events, Facebook interactions and much more. Apple iOS 6 also makes it easier to share content on Twitter and Facebook. Most importantly, iOS 6 adds several features that make it easier to sync content to Apple iCloud.
The Nexus Galaxy is sold with Android 4.0 preinstalled, though it is one of the first phones to receive Android 4.1 Jelly Bean. Updates to the operating system will be rolling out over-the-air over the next few weeks. The immediacy of the update depends on which carrier you choose to connect your phone to. Ultimately, the
Galaxy Nexus will be updated across all carriers. Both Android 4.0 and 4.1 are extremely capable operating system and are clearly the best versions of Android to date. Android especially excels in the area of customization. Still, since the Galaxy Nexus ships with an old version of Android, it is difficult to declare it the winner in operating system category.
Winner: iPhone 5 (iOS 6)
Performance: The
iPhone 5 runs on the brand new Apple A6 processor. Apple claims that the processor is 22 percent smaller than the Apple A5 and has twice the computing power and graphical processing power. Apple has not released specific details abou the processor such as how many cores or GHz the A6 processor has. The Verge rpoerts that it's likely a shrunken A5X or a new quad-core CPU, but, of course, we can't be sure until that information is released or determined through testing. What we do know is that the A6 is the best mobile processor Apple has ever made.
The Galaxy Nexus runs on a dual-core TI OMAP 4460 CPU that's been clocked at 1.2GHz. The phone also comes stocked with 1GB of RAM and up to 32 GB of storage. NFC and other technologies included are on par with the iPhone. The Galaxy Nexus has been called "the best Android phone ever made" by The Verge. That's because both the hardware and software allow for it to function smoothly and effectively.
Winner: iPhone 5 (Reason: the
Samsung Galaxy S3 processor has tested better than the Galaxy Nexus, and we suspect that the A6 processor is comparable to the Galaxy S3 processor)
Display: The iPhone 5 is packed with a highly touted Retina Display that shows pictures at 1136x640 resolution. It has an 800:1 contrast ratio and a fingerprint-resistant oleophobic coating on the device that prevents it from being smudged. The screen itself measures 4-inches diagonally, which is slightly larger than the iPhone 4S. As is the case with other Retina Displays from Apple, the screen is absolutely stunning.
The Galaxy Nexus a beautiful 4.64-inch display that supports 720p HD video. The screen displays images at a 1280 x 720 resolution. The screen includes Super AMOLED technology that produces beautiful colors while keeping batter consumption to a minimum. It should be noted that the Galaxy Nexus has a higher resolution than the
iPhone 5. It's also important to note that Samsung makes the iPad Retina Display (although it's uncertain if it makes the one for the iPhone 5).
Winner: Galaxy Nexus (1280x720 resolution)
Price: The iPhone 5 is sold in three tiers: It's $199 for a 16GB version; $299 for a 32GB version; $399 for a 64 GB version. Even the cheapest model of the iPhone 5 is more expensive than most Android phones.
The Galaxy Nexus is pretty old at this point and can be found at an extremely cheap price online. Just a quick search on Google revealed that the Galaxy Nexus can be purchased for as low as $49.99.
Winner:
Galaxy Nexus ($49.99)
Cool Factor: The iPhone 5 is brand new and carries a certain aura to it. The iPhone 5 is so eagerly anticipated by consumers that Jimmy Kimmel was able to convince consumers that the iPhone 4S was actually lighter, smarter and faster than itself in a prank video. The iPhone has become somewhat of a status symbol, and the new version of the phone is always in extremely high demand because of it.
The Samsung Galaxy Nexus can be customized through the operating system, which can give the appearance of a one-of-a-kind phone. It's extremely sleek and powerful and is also one of the most popular Android phones on the market. Despite its popularity, the Galaxy Nexus cannot compete with the
iPhone 5.
Winner: iPhone 5
Conclusion: The
Galaxy Nexus is very capable and will be updated to the newest version of Android (Android 4.1 Jelly Bean). Although that may be the case, the phone is old and will probably not hold up as well as the iPhone 5. Whether the price difference is actually worth it depends on the consumer, however, as was noted by Buzzfeed, you should never purchase a phone and hope that it will get better after it was p

Just by considering that alone, the Galaxy Nexus should definitely pale in comparison to the brand-new Samsung Galaxy Note 2, which was launched just a few days ago in Germany. But given that the Galaxy Nexus is considered by some to be last year’s cream of the crop among smartphones, let’s see how it stacks up against the Galaxy Note 2.
The Galaxy Nexus is still a device that stands out for its design. Thinness is more important than internal specs for some, and if you’re looking for a thin device, the Galaxy Nexus beats the Galaxy Note 2, 8.9mm to 9.4mm. The Galaxy Nexus is also 55 grams lighter, at 135 grams
So if you’re solely concerned about how thin and light your device is, the older phone will be the better choice.
However, the Galaxy Note 2 has the Galaxy Nexus beaten almost everywhere else. The new Samsung “phablet” will have quad-core power backing it up – an Exynos processor mated with 2 GB RAM. The Galaxy Nexus, on the other hand, has a 1.2 GHz TI OMAP 4460 dual-core processor.
The Galaxy Note 2 offers more internal storage options (16, 32 and 64 GB) compared to the 16 and 32 GB options for the Galaxy Nexus – moreover, the latter phone doesn’t support microSD. And though it’s a bit disappointing the Galaxy Note 2’s camera is “only” 8 megapixels, it’s still a great deal better than the puny 5-megapixel rear camera on the Galaxy Nexus.
