However, according to a GSMArena report, the official name of the next Google flagship will be Samsung Galaxy Nexus not Nexus Prime. The device will have a 4.65-inch display with HD resolution rather than previously rumored 4.5-inch WVGA. The screen of the new device will be curved, resembling the Nexus S screen. It will also be very thin at 8.8-mm and posses a metal chassis.

Meanwhile, a support page has been found on Samsung’s UK website that hints at upcoming Nexus Prime. The almost-empty page dubbed to be a dummy or placeholder bears the name GT-I9250. Though not much information is displayed on the website, but its now strongly believed that the Nexus Prime will hit the UK market first. The support page links to several FAQs and how-to guides of handsets such as the Omnia 7 and Galaxy S2.
