All About the Galaxy Nexus Camera [Video]

DD There's been quite a bit of buzz around the blogosphere regarding the Galaxy Nexus' measly 5 megapixel camera. As I'm sure you most of you are probably already aware, megapixels aren't everything. They do have their significance, but I've seen plenty of 5 megapixel sensors outperform their 8 megapixel counterparts. That being said, how exactly does the Galaxy Nexus... Read more »
