Android 4.0 Smartphone Samsung Galaxy Nexus

The road for Samsung's Galaxy Nexus to arrive on Verizon has been a long and winding one

, but at long last, the first Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich smartphone debuted recently.

Originally slated for a November release, the Galaxy Nexus was discovered over the weekend hiding in Verizon's final retail boxes.

Google's flagship Nexus Android 4.0 phones are usually hailed as being the best Androids in town because of their stock OS (no skins, no bloatware, etc.), but Verizon being well its big old fat self; removed the Galaxy Nexus' Google Wallet NFC mobile payment system. Replacing Google Wallet will likely be Verizon's own rival NFC mobile payment system ISIS.

The usual Verizon bloatware apps have also installed, including My Verizon Mobile and VZ Backup Assistant. Apart from that, the Verizon's 4G-LTE version of the Galaxy Nexus is actually slightly fatter than the international HSPA+one, but you also get a battery that's 100 mAh larger (1,850 mAh v. 1,750mAh).

Other outstanding specs include a contoured 4.65-inch Super AMOLED display with 1280x720 resolution, Android 4.0 ICS (which is said to be amazing), an 8-megapixel rear camera, 32GB of storage, micro USB port, 1GB of RAM and a fast 1.2GHz dual-core processor.

In the last few years, Android's prided itself for being able to render Adobe Flash content in its mobile browser, but with Adobe dropping support for it, Flash's entire future was up in the air for Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich.

Although Galaxy Nexuses that have shipped out don't have Flash support, Adobe will give it one last hurrah for Android 4.0 ICS "before the end of this year.
