The Samsung Galaxy Nexus is part of Google's NEXUS lineup of flagship devices. It has an HD Super AMOLED display, curved display, and Android version 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich.

Which GPS Chip? Bluetooth 3 or 4?

Hi Guys,

great work in iFixit, i really like your teardown. Can you tell me which GPS Chip is used ? I try to find out if the galaxy nexus can use Glonass. Second question is bluetooth related, i read everywhere that Nexus has Bluetooth 3.0 but the BT Chip has Bluetooth 4.0. What do you think about this ?

regards Thomas

If you look at the huge image of Step 12, in the upper right-hand corner, you can see that the GPS chipset is SiRF's GSD4t. The GSD4t is GPS only and therefore cannot use Glonass.
