Had the Rezound for two and a half weeks, Nexus for an hour. Nexus wins. I can't discern any difference between the screens and that was the Rezound selling point. I haven't noticed any lag in the Nexus, and there was a bit in the Rezound to be honest.
I had the Rezound for two weeks before switching to the Nexus. The things I notice:
Speed: Both phones are very smooth and fast.
Signal and connection: The Rezound gave me much better signal readings than what I have been seeing on the Nexus. The 4G speeds are about the same though and I've yet to drop a call.
Wifi: While both connect to my network the Nexus is getting better speeds than either my netbook or laptop get.
Screen: Both phones have great screens, but the size and amoled on the Nexus are a winner for me.
OS: ICS has to win this. It is really really nice. Did I say ICS is nice?
Apps: Obviously with a new OS there are some compatibility issues with some apps. I've had some apps that are just not performing well or not at all with ICS that were great on Gingerbread. I think this will be resolved for most when the developers get off their lazy bu......ummmm....I mean take the time out of their incredibly busy schedules to do updates.
Sound: Even with Beats I would call this a draw. Beats always seemed like an updated Loudness button to me. The EQ in the new Google Music app does a better job IMHO.

How about battery life on the rezound? I used my Nex for like 5 texts today and at 330 it had 20%. Went on it for 2 minutes and was getting battery warnings. If I had used like I normally do my phone it would have been dead by noon.
