Thus far, Google has brought out a new Nexus every year. I dunno if the tablet counts as "the Nexus" for 2012, though, so expect perhaps a new phone to arrive late in Q4, same as last year.

The current Galaxy Nexus (aka. "Prime", or model i9250) has been out since last November. It is an excellent handset, with lots of storage, but no SD slot. I initially thought the battery life was crap, but in the past couple of days I've not been pawing it continuously and surprise.. the battery is lasting longer.

I'll reserve further judgement on that until I've used it a bit more off-site this week. Everyone who sees/plays with my phone in person wants one.

Cheers
