The Samsung Galaxy Nexus has been flaunting its 720p SuperAMOLED screen in shop windows in the US for a couple of weeks now, but that's the GSM version only. Those who want 4G LTE connectivity on Verizon's network are still waiting - now they have a chance to take the Samsung Galaxy Nexus i515 for a spin if they go to the Samsung Experience Store in New York.
It's still not available for purchase and reportedly, there's no way test how the Galaxy Nexus i515 handles on Verizon's LTE network (the samples are hooked to Wi-Fi only). Still, the holidays are coming and the time for picking gifts is running out fast - if you were looking at Google's pure-blood droid as a potential gift, a quick hands-on is a welcome opportunity.
The Samsung Galaxy Nexus i515 for Verizon should go on sale this Sunday (December 11). It will come with Android 4.1 Ice Cream Sandwich out of the box - the 0.1 update is reportedly focused on improving the performance of the basedband.
