Apple may seek to stop U.S. launch of Galaxy phone
I am mostly looking for a larger screen and it needs to be a GSM phone (so that I can use it in Europe as well).

There is a GSM Galaxy Nexus. In fact, it is thinner and lighter than the LTE Galaxy Nexus, and has a larger capacity battery.

It's actually 1,750 mAh HSPA+ compared to 1,850 mAh for LTE - but yes the HSPA+ will last longer due to drain from LTE.

The GSM Galaxy Nexus I've seen had a 1900 mAh battery.

Oh interesting, from memory I thought the GSM had a slightly smaller battery and I pulled those numbers from Wikipedia (they could of course be wrong).

The battery is physically smaller. Not what I was expecting when I opened one up, especially after reading that it had a higher capacity.
