My Nexus has improved signal since the Jelly Bean upgrade. I believe it's because they upgraded the radio firmware as well.

The UI is unbelievably smooth. Every app loads faster.

Android 4.2 Key Lime Pie will be revealed in less than two weeks as well as the new Nexus phone. Also the rumors surrounding the Samsung Galaxy SIV are that it's essentially a laptop within a smartphone.

will the Galaxy Nexus get KLP?

My Nexus S 4g is still terrible...some user interface updates are better, but overall this phone may be the worst phone I have ever had. Even worse than a "Go phone". Can't wait to get a new phone once my contract is up.

This is the only problem I have with the Android system. There's phones out there that are barely a year old and still don't even have ICS. Yet they're about to come out with KLP. My few month old SG3 doesn't even have Jelly Bean yet.

Really? I thought they would push Jelly Bean to that phone asap.

I'm loving JB. Getting updates sooner was part of the reason i bought the GN though

The problem with the non-Nexus phones is that everything has to be tested by carrier and phone maker. It sounds like JB should be coming soon for the S3, but how soon is anyone's guess. And Jelly Bean has been out for what? 4-5 months now?

Not sure. I've probably had it a month or so now

Which is why you get a Nexus phone

Best part of Key Lime Pie is Project Roadrunner - aka huge increases in battery life.

I have never said that. Someone else on here was having a lot of issues though. It's an awesome phone and I can't wait to get Key Lime Pie. The one drag on the Nexus is the battery life is inexcusable. Project Roadrunner should alleviate that.

I was holding out for a Nexus phone, but the SIII just seemed so perfect. It's a great phone don't get me wrong. I just get so frustrated with the whole Android updating situation. It really isn't that hard, but its mainly the carriers that drag their feet constantly on this stuff. There's no reason they can't push these updates out faster, but they just don't want to put the time into it.
