Sprint's Samsung Galaxy Nexus is virtually identical to the original version we saw launch with Verizon in December, except that there are no barriers to Google Wallet. It has a 4-inch HD Super AMOLED touch screen and Google's Ice Cream Sandwich Android operating system.

It has a 5-megapixel camera with flash, and the capability of recording video in 1080p HD video. It'll play back video in 720p HD. On the front is a 1.3-megapixel camera. There's also a nice, textured back cover that's soft to the touch.

The shiny ports on the right side hook into desk docks. Just next to it is a power control/lock button.

The Galaxy Nexus is thin (0.35 inch) and pretty light (4.76 inches), although its battery makes it heavier than other models we've seen. It has a 1.2Ghz dual-core processor.

The camera lens and flash are located on the phone's rear side. The Sprint model has the same "hyperskin" material on the back cover.
