UPDATE: Check out our Hands on: Samsung Galaxy Nexus review

Vodafone, O2 and Three have all confirmed that they will be stocking the new Samsung Galaxy Nexus when it goes on sale.

The new phone, which was announced at the launch of Google's new Ice Cream Sandwich OS, features a glut of top end technology, including a 1.2GHz processor, 1GB of RAM and a whopping 4.65-inch screen with 720p resolution.

While we were hoping for a more top end spec-list, there's no doubting that this phone will be pushed towards the more expensive end of the networks' ranges, so expect to pay north of £30 per month on a two year deal.

Samsung Galaxy Nexus release date

There's no UK release date from any of the networks at the present moment, but the expected Samsung Galaxy Nexus Release date is pegged for early November, if we believe an erroneous flyer from Japanese Network DoCoMo.

Vodafone does have a prior relationship with Google over its new devices, being the only stockist of the Google Nexus One and Nexus S for a while, but certainly doesn't have the exclusive on the Ice Cream Sandwich device.

We'll bring you the news of a UK release date and UK pricing from the networks as we get it.
