Here are my impressions of Galaxy Nexus after a one Month use.
Things i like...
1. Better Yahoo mail support (server search)
2. Media controls available on lock screen just like WP7
3. Notification center is awesome(media controls, weather, email previews,deep app linking thru notifications)
4. Got Jelly Bean update 15 days after announcement.
5. More frequent app updates, on parity with ios.
6. Google Now is very useful and available from lock screen.
7. More feature rich music apps (Songza, spotify with free radio(pandora) like option, slacker radio app that works)
8. Better Skype app which actually runs in the background
9. Nokia Purity in-ear headset works with galaxy nexus, volume control button works as skip button on all audio apps.
10. zynga games!!!, i can go back and forth between ipad and galaxy nexus and the games are always in sync.
Things i miss from wp7
1. Pinnable email folders.
2. Deep app linking.
I still use the lumia 900 for daily alarm and listening to music for its loud speaker. I check it everyday to see if it has any app updates and plug it into zune and check for Tango update only to be disappointed.
