I don't know if I should pay a little more for a Galaxy S III, go for a Galaxy Nexus, get stock Android, but not FM radio, or an Xperia S, which has a reasonable price, a good camera (not even considering the 12MP sensor) and a nice UI (just about to get ICS).
So, could you guys help?
and no, the HTC One X isn't sold where I live.
UPDATE: Thanks for the answers, I just got a Galaxy Nexus.

Galaxy S III, Galaxy Nexus or Xperia S?

I personally will be careful if it ever comes to buying a Sony phone again. They are beautiful devices and have a great sense of class and sophistication to them. They just falter on two main points.
1. Sony is rarely on time when they are delivering software updates. "Soon" to them can mean months, and you really do not know that you will get more features later. So if you really like the Xperia S (or any phone for that matter), treat it like it will stay forever with the software it comes in the box. That way there will be less disappointment down the road if they fail to deliver.
2. Timescape. I loved the concept of timescape when I first saw it, and the infinite button. All that jazz. After owning the x10 for years timescape has come to annoy me to the point of not wanting it at all. Just give me a stock android and i'll be happy.
So that leaves you between the SIII or Galaxy Nexus. Between those, I think the SIII will be the more popular option. I think the camera will be nice enough (although not Xperia nice). You will have to still deal with not having a stock android experience there. It also costs a bunch more.
If you are anxious for a possible Jellybean 4.1 release of Android, the Galaxy Nexus will most likely be the first device to get an update, as it is a Pure Google device

Galaxy Nexus. Stock Android is way better than any OEM skin.

Xperia S is an awesome choice, if you really appreciate design on phones, go for the Xperia S.... if you want a beast like Shelby? get the SIII, it's big its powerful and beyond ugly.
