So since the S3 will be launched here next week. The S2 and Gnex are on sale here. The S2 is a bit more expensive.

I know the S2 is slightly more powerful, but the Gnex uses stock anrdoid and will likely get better software support going forward.

I currently have an SGS that I put ICS on. I miss some of the touchwiz apps like swype, but I like the interface in ICS more.

HTC doesn't have a warrenty Centre here so I'm considering the ONE series. Just wanted to know your experiences. Reviews can only tell you so much.

Assuming the S2 you are looking at is the i9100 it's very easy to get stock ICS on it via a custom rom if you are willing to go that route. If not the Gnex is the better choice in my opinion.

Yeah, they are both the international unlocked versions.
