dun think so. SGSII is more future proof in terms of the hardware except the screen. Exynos and Mali 400 are yet to be fully utilized by current system and application requirements. on the otherhand powervr and tiomap is more on compatibility. which means, its almost reaching its peak d. cannot ask too much from it d.

Actually not quite true, but I do agree from a hardware perspective the SGS2's Exynos and Mali400 processors have a lot of potential. But that hardware potential quickly diminishes with the absence of developer support (though not to say there are none).

The Galaxy Nexus may have a 'weaker GPU' but lets not forget that it is a developer platform and it has reached a cult status. A lot of applications and developments for the year 2012 will be based on this model as a benchmark. In terms of application compatibility, I'm more confident that Galaxy Nexus will be at an advantage. Also that PowerVR SGX540 is standard issue on a lot of phones.

It may not yield good numbers in your favorite benchmarking tools but it will play all the latest games with good performance (and your other favorite applications). That's what matters to a user.

Someone ask for single page rendering column when open web page.
To enable single rendering column, open web page ,under URL type about:debug 
Hit go and you see blank page, go setting and you see extra setting after lab,
Navigate until single column  and enable that.Now when you open web page you have one lay out single rendering web page.
Regarding someone mention about numerous soft reboot after sometime,
first you don't use any type of juice defender or task killer,The force GPU enable also contribute to the reboot.
I notice after browse heavy web page and intensive game the phone get hot a little bit,when battery temperature hit 51"C and i get overheat message on test menu under batt information  ,the galaxy nexus start reboot by itself. I leave it under power off condition  for 5 minute and amazingly the galaxy nexus cool down temperature at fast rate.I power on again and see batt temperatureat 30"C. For me it quite amazing.The heat distribution is fast along the body.
Now i currently disable  force GPU accelerated,and thing works well.
In between can someone verify Bump apps can be use in Galaxy nexus?

Ya, GPU acceleration does introduce artifacts and incorrect renders as already predicted by Google engineers. Some of them are bugs that can be easily resolved.

Anyway from your temperature observations, I have a good feeling that the unbranded 'fortified screen' helped out on the heat dissipation. Thats the largest air convection surface you have on a phone. Rumors has it that Corning's Lotus Glass is great in this respect. Really hope Galaxy Nexus is using this glass. Even iPhone 4S is not using Gorrila Glass (meaning good chance it could be this glass too).
