Galaxy Nexus vs. RAZR M?

I need help deciding between these two. The nexus catches my eye, and battery life (for the nexus anyways) doesn't matter because there's a 3900 mAh case for it. The RAZR M only has a 0.3 MP VGA front facing camera, but the nexus only has a 5 MP rear camera. Resolution and speed has a lot to do with it. Imo, the Nexus's screen is better with 316 ppi. The nexus is also bigger. I haven't done as much research on the Razr M, but I hear it's pretty good. Both can be compared with the note 2 and s3, and those are really good phones. The only thing the note 2 and s3 have on them is the processor. 1.6 GHz for the note 2 and 1.4 GHz for the s3. Anyways, ONLY between these two, no others. No iPhones, s3, s2, or any other. These are around $49.99 with a contract and they are extraordinary phones. Please help!

    Alright, I'll give you my answer.....

    I would only recommend the Razr M if you want a phone that has excellent reception (Motorola's radios and speakers are superb), excellent quality (feels more high end than the Galaxy Nexus), and better speed (Razr M comes with a more updated and speedy processor).

    I would recommend the Galaxy Nexus if you want a better display (both the Razr and the Nexus use the same type of display, but the Galaxy Nexus has a higher resolution display at 1280x720 vs the Razr M's 960x540 resolution display), more up to date operating systems (Nexus devices always receive faster updates (though in Verizon's case, I'm not so sure)). If you also plan on rooting the Galaxy Nexus, then this will be the best device since the developing community is so huge while the Razr M.... not so much.

    I would also like to add to your description that the Razr M also has a 8 megapixel camera, but the camera sucks just as badly as the Galaxy Nexus's 5 megapixel camera. Megapixel doesn't always determine how good a camera is either. The Galaxy Nexus also has a 1.3 megapixel front facing camera as well.

    Piece of advice: Research the phone's specs PROPERLY before you state what each device has and don't brush around the bush.
