I've been wanting to do this or a while but next month (with help from my gf) I will finally be replacing my land line with the top of the Samsung Galaxy Nexus smartphone.
This will be the first smartphone I have ever owned and could use some recommendations on what accessories are a must for it.
Accessories as in apps or physical accessories such as chargers?
Suggestions for both would be nice actually, though right now I'm looking more towards physical accessories since I will be getting the phone in the middle of next month. I'm already taking a look at cases.
It again depends on what you're going to use the phone mostly. Work? Music? Social tool?
As I said it's replacing my land line. So it will be used in place of that. I will use it to display my store when I'm talking to people about it so I can show them my work. Also for entertainment, games, videos etc.
Nothing much to say. Definitely a good screen protector and a hard cover if you're using it for display purposes. I've stuck to normal Apple earphones which are completely horrible; you might want to fork out more for noise cancelling earplugs.
An Autobox would be a must, though i've only ever seen them on Apple products. You can drop the phone out of an airplane, and it'd still work. They're a bit bulky though.

This is something that's been hard to figure out. One thing I have to consider is my sunglasses are polarized. The screen plain with the phone I can see fine but with a protector on it I have no idea if I will get some funky view on the screen with the glasses. So far from reviews I might go with the one Verizon offers.

I hadn't even considered earplugs. Yeah that would be useful.

When I typed autobox and galaxy nexus into a search I just got case-mate cases. I heard those had a molding problem with this phone that they plan to correct (next month I think). Considering I can offer Case-Mate cases in my store it would be cool if Zazzle began offering them for this phone, then I would get a case with my own design.

Ask for the technician to put the screen protector on. They did mine 8 months ago, and theres yet to be an air bubble under it.

Theres that, but if people see you using one, and then selling one, they'll assume that the product is good if you're placing your trust in it.
Not that thrilled with the wet application screen protectors, but with this particular phone it's either that or one that doesn't provide full coverage.
Definitely get the screen protector. I have my galaxy s2 epic 4g touch for less than 2 months (without a case or protector), and someone knocked it out of my hand, so now it has a tiny crack in the upper right corner. It's hardly noticeable, but kind of annoying because it's expensive to replace the screen if it gets any bigger.
Screen protector and a simple hard case. They help protect it and u can get some cool ones. But none of that flippy floppy stuff. Or the things with the clip. Waste. As for apps, just get like angry birds and AoZ.
