Samsung Gets Jumpstart in Smartphone Market with Google Preferred-Vendor-Status and the Galaxy Nexus


 Samsung Galaxy Nexus

Google's upcoming Galaxy Nexus, manufactured by Samsung, ushers in the latest Android OS – "Ice Cream Sandwich." Introduced in Hong Kong recently, the smartphone promises to be the most influential mark of mobile technology to date, with a slew of more handsets on the way. Ice Cream Sandwich also touts the ability to run on any mobile device, unlike previous versions.

"Ice Cream Sandwich demonstrates the Android platform's continued innovation with one release that works on phones and tablets and everything in between," Andy Rubin, head of Google's mobile business, said recently.

Samsung and Google definitely have a growing love for one another, considering Google chose Samsung again as the manufacturer for their Nexus-brand flagship phone. (The Google Galaxy Nexus is the successor to the Google Nexus S by Samsung.) Samsung hasn't historically led the way in the Smartphone industry, but over the course of the last couple of years, their Galaxy line has dominated the scene, particularly with their recently introduced Galaxy S II phone.

When the Nexus S entered the market last year, it was pure Google, and it boasted some specifications unlike any phone the public had seen. Samsung won't disappoint this year with the all new Nexus phone, the 8.9-mm Galaxy Nexus. Housing a screaming 1.2 gigahertz dual-core processor, it shines with a 4.65-inch 1280x720-pixel Super AMOLED HD screen, 1GB of RAM, 32GB of storage, and a distinctive curved-shape that molds to the face.
