idk what you should do. make a pros and cons list from what you think deep down? then won't have anyone to blame but yourself if things don't go as hoped.
Look- I WANT THIS PHONE SO DAMN BADLY. I have an O.G motorola Droid and I am beginning to wonder if i should just go get something else this coming week...Because Honestly...I just don't know how healthy this is what I'm doing to myself. Waiting. Googling this phone 4-5x a day. Constantly re-reading and rewatching videos and writeups on it. I am losing my MIND!!!
I DON'T WANT TO WAIT 3 MORE DAMN WEEKS. That is all
4-5x a day, that's it?!?!
I like the fact that nexus has a curved screen, making it a bit more drop proof when dropped face down on cement. That's the most critical test that usually shatters screens into spider web.
Ugh, that's hard to watch!
Nice video, I hadn't seen that. The build quality is the only thing I am slightly worried about, especially after coming from strictly Motorola phones (and Palm of course). I've never had a phone break on me though and I'm going to treat my Nexus like a newborn so I'm hoping I'll be good.

I really would like to bash, but theres a no bashing clause... so yea
you should be fine with your droid bionic. i would wait a month or so after the galaxy nexus gets released to see if its flaws and strong points. however, if your going to wait a month, you may as well wait to see the next generation of phones. i say wait.
The Bionic is a great basically flawless phone. it runs smoothly. theres no harm in waiting

But impressive to say the least. I've dropped my iPod face down... done. I've seen my brother drop his OG Droid face down... done. I've dropped my OG Droid on it's back with a hard case on it and it was fine though. I don't think I've ever seen a phone get dropped 3 times, once waist high, another SHOULDER high and then waist high on it's front with little to no damage done. I can't imagine Sammy not doing the same for the G-Nex. I think it's going to be a really solid build, but mine will be Otterbox'd for sure.
I haven't heard anything about it having gorilla glass so I guess it doesn't have it?

If I wasn't a carpenter I'd go naked but I'm just not going to take that chance.
Gorilla glass can still be scratched, my cousins original Droid's screen is all scratched up. I've had a screen protector on mine since day one, so it's free of any.
