The bigger processor in the Rezound may not make much difference. HTC's sense uses some resources. The Nexus, at 1.2GHz, may even be faster because it doesn't have to lag a huge UI around all the time.
Nonetheless, no removable SD card in the Nexus is a serious shortcoming for me. Razr looks to be the best option if I had to pick.
one reason i am lookin at the GN over the other two is the lack of the bottom 4 buttons. 5 mp cam is good enough for a phone, and other than that the big difference is sdcard slot or all in one storage.

looks like the 1.2 in the nexus is actually faster than the 1.5 in the rezound b/c of the processors' respective architechtures. also, the nexus is probably overclockable. but lack of sd card....
The only time I removed the SD from my Droid was to make a full back up of the card.
I am sure with the Nexus this will be psbl with a USB cable.
Plus I have yet to get close to 16GB of use, so not having access to a card is not a big deal to me.
Interesting about the comments on the processor speed- so guess bigger/larger not necessarily faster.
I was leaning towards the Razr, but what I am reading on the Razr is its a tad wider than the Nexus. The Nexus is a tad longer than the Razr. Originally when I heard the Nexus was 4.65 inch screen I was thinking the Nexus would be really noticable in size. Seems not.
After several days I am pretty happy with my Rezound. I wish it was smaller, but other that that its fast, does simultanious voice and data on 3G, and has plenty of power. When I go somewhere covered by LTE the network speed is amazing. There are a few little irritations, like the buttons being hard to find, but I am getting used to that.
I replaced a Droid, and now people can actually understand what I am saying. Big plus!
I've heard that traditionally motorola uses stronger radios (better reception), I wonder how these 3 stack up in reception?
this has been my understanding as well, in addition to my personal experience. any more input from users on reception quality on these 3 models?
will the razr and rezound be comparable to the Nexus in operation once they are upgraded to ICS as well?
Then I also have to consider the iphone 4s which I have no idea what reception will be like.
Whatever I get it will be my first smarphone.
I'm first and foremost concerned as the device functioning as a PHONE. I'm business professional and couldn't care less about the music player, camera, etc.
