I have the Rezound and loving it, I thought about getting the Nexus but I never had a good track record with Samsung phones and have been pretty happy with HTC, except with there choices of batteries for their phones, they seem to lack in that department, surprisingly the battery in the Rezound, be it not a higher rated battery as other new smartphones out there, but it would last me just about the whole day with moderate use (i.e. surfing the web, texting, games and phone calls). I did buy the extended battery for it whenever I know I'll be at an amusement park with the family or know that I'm going to be away from a charge for a long period of time and plan on using the phone more than usual, like taking plenty of pictures and videos. I do like the bigger and nicer screen of the and Nexus and the design is pretty nice too. I'll just wait for the OTA update to ICS next year.
