Do companies keep their phones a bit under powered than what they are capable of???

With the concept of over clocking Android devices and rooting to get better performance out of the same hardware, arises the question that does the phone company keep your device under powered just to increase the sales of the higher model for their greed and money?? I think yes, they do play with craving for 'just that little bit more specs' and trick us into buying the higher version with specs that might just be over kill for the user.
Another classic example is when high end power houses like the Samsung Galaxy S2 be said to incompatible with games like Riptide GP... stating that it is so because of the absense of an nvidia GPU... But the same S2 can run the game flawlessly when the game is tricked into thinking its an nvidia GPU with root apps like ChainFire 3D. This got thinking and now I have arrived to the conclusion that yes, phone companies do keep there phones a bit under powered for their greed( this isn't true for every low end device that doesn't fulfil your wishes).

Does the Galaxy Nexus live up to it's expectations???

The much awaited Galaxy Nexus is rolling out all over the world but is it worth the hype... In the era of so called super-smartphones... the Galaxy Nexus shows off mid-range specs. It's true that though it is Google's flagship phone... It lacks quality... speaking of which, the overall build quality of the phone isn't as impressive as many premium phones, as it is plastic construction versus aluminium and kevlar.
The only reason one would buy the Galaxy Nexus is for the early updates and thus targets the developer crowd. Otherwise the 1.2GHz dual core processor and the shocking 5MP camera isn't much to brag about. The only aspects of the phone that stand out from the rest of the crowd are, its display, having a SuperAmoled screen with a resolution of 1920x720p fitted on the usual screen size of 4.65" and the NFC capability of Android Beam. Manu might say Ice Cream Sandwich is big factor but I disagree as many phones would upgrade to the same software in a few months.
All in all, not the best for the price point.
