The S3 is nice, but not twice the price nice. I love my stock android on the Nexus, don't mind it doesn't have a microSD slot, but love the ability to switch out battery at whim.

The GNex with 4.1.1 is really snappy. I haven't had the radio issues some have had with VZ LTE, so I'm pretty happy where I'm at. The SGIII just doesn't have enough extra to make me want to switch. I'm gonna wait for the next Nexus device I think.

Same.

The gnex is so much easier to mess around with, hacking wise
