The Nexus S will get ICS without a doubt, it'll very likely be the first device to be updated to it.

Re: Google Android
I'm hoping the Defy + will get it (it should do, as it came with Gingerbread from new)

Re: Google Android
It seems Android apps are really improving , I've just downloaded the update to the Sky+ android app and it's now equally as good as the iOS version and identical in looks

Re: Google Android
I was running EXTRAordinary_5.1_ICS_SGS2 ROM on my old Galaxy S phone for a couple of weeks inc the shown software buttons which were working.
Themed ROM. http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1136449

HTC has announced that the Sensation WILL be getting ICS, you can also officially unlock the Sensations bootloader too now which means you can use custom roms.

I was looking at the Sensation as 1 of 2 phones when I recently upgraded but chose the SGSII for ease of customisation.

Re: Google Android
I chose the Sensation as it felt smaller and better in my hands.

Re: Google Android
Well i have a dilemma...
I have an early upgrade opportunity that comes online next Sunday. I guess development has gone as far as the hardware in the Nexus One will allow at 2.3.7 however ebay values on the N1 are still high.
Would it make better sense to upgrade to maybe the SGS2 no on sim free and ignore the early upgrade, hoping that there will be something better in June next year for the 'free' upgrade and then flog the SGS2?
6 months of no meaningfull updates makes me a sad panda

Yea, the SGS2 is a large phone, feels a lot bigger than the SGS even though its size isnt much bigger.
