I had for two months a MT4G and first I hated it because it was so different. I came from a Nexus One with Stock Froyo and Sense UI was overwhelming me. After 2 months I really appreciated all the small nice features that HTC integrated that stock android never had. Additionally, the MT4G is a great, fast and well built phone (I had also trouble with squeaky buttons and the bad screen) and Froyo 2.2.1 with Sense was running very smoothly on it. Last weekend I dropped my MT4G and the screen broke and the buttons and trackpad scratched. So I took the opportunity to buy the Samsung Nexus S. I wanted to give it a try and wanted to see how gingerbread looks. The phone is nice except the already known flaws. The SAMOLED is for my taste too dark and not sharp enough. But I could definitely live with that. The most disappointing thing was gingerbread. I couldn't believe what a half baked version of android Google put on this phone. It's embarrassing. The browser is useless with or without flash because it is not hardware accelerated? Everything is choppy and laggy. I had the MT4G before and its browser is smooth and fast. The NS is a pain while scrolling between homescreens....it lags, it misses swipes it drove me nuts. I tried several homelaunchers and the lag on the homescreen and the missed swipes were still present. I wanted to try the FFC just to realize that it is not supported by any 3rd market software (Tango doesn't really work) and neither by Google itself. Are you really kidding me? Yesterday after a week I had enough. Today I returned the phone mainly because of gingerbread and I am happily awaiting my MT4G. I will buy one tonight and I couldn't be more happy with HTC and Sense. I am not even anxiously waiting for gingerbread anymore for my MT4G.
thanks, may pass on the nexus s and wait for another 4g phone before switching to tmobile. thought about buying a new mytouch 4g and trading it for the nexus s and going on a two year contract .

The problem was probably it being by Samsung. Many users have reported Gingerbread running fine on HTC phones.

Could be. But most of the bugs should have been observed prior to release of this phone. The browser lag, flash unusable and that the phone reboots while on the phone doesn't sound like they tested the NS vigorously. The Nexus S is officially not a dev phone and to put something like that to BestBuy is unbelievable. BTW I had two Nexus S and both were buggy.
gingerbrad on the mytouch 4g runs amazing.. its the nexus s lol.
id still trade my mytouch 4g for one though. idk why

I'm tempted to, hopefully going to check it out tomorrow. If I like it I may purchase a mytouch 4g for $99 on a two year contract. Trade the mytouch 4g for a nexus s then, and still have my old mytouch 4g which I purchased off craigslist for $250 brand new.
I have now my MT4G again and I am so happy with it. Try the Nexus S before you buy it. Stock Android and the Nexus line are dead for me.

I would buy an NS again if they will figure out which are hardware defects and which are bugs.
Got the best of both worlds here... MT4G running cm7 which is basically gingerbread ..

I had the same experience like you. I bought one of CL pretty cheap and sold it shortly after, later on i acquired 2 brand new in box Nexus S and sold it, the thing is i was never tempted to try on the phone again.
I found the same flaws you had in the Nexus S. The phone feels slow, more like a reskined vibrant with gingerbread. While i think 2.3 is nice because higher build android means always better but after using so many stock roms i don't buy the GOOGLE EXPERIENCE anymore, let me explain:
Basic things like dialer, is a pain in the a** to scroll through the call logs or contact list to call someone, yeah favorite helps but that is another extra step you have to take when making a call. HTC's dialer while overloaded it can easily search through your contact list when you touch dial their name on the numpad. Then you get the bonus of recording calls for important things you need out of the box without the need to wait for the deving team.
The stock browser sucks, no text reflow, well yes the nexus s owners will tell you to press on the zoom in/out soft buttons to reflow, again another extra steps.
Then the whole lag in a phone that is not suppossed to lag. Browser lags and the OS just doesn't feel as smooth as one hope to be, well feels smooth brand new but after some usage it starts to drag on its knees.
Well again the GOOGLE EXPERIENCE of customizing your phone the way you want is just plain old when back in the days android was in the baby stages the theme builders and custom launchers did a great job but i think that the users want something that works out of the box with higher level of customization than iOS.
I've went through 3 mytouch 4G, because my family members keept liking the phone so much that they wanted one for themselves and they are all been pleased, and none of them are android savy and cared enough about rooting or custom roms.
So in summary the nexus s is a nieche phone, the phone is for people who can put up with the shortcommings of a unfinished product and the patience of waiting for google to release updates. While new phones are released in the market every months I bet the nexus model will not have many followers after people see google released a half baked phone and OS when in a few months people can get dual core phones and LTE phones, google nexus one owners are still with their FULL GOOGLE EXPERIENCE and patiently waiting for "optimizations" from google. I just find it funny, it was a great thing with the nexus one because it was actually a great phone but the NS is just a quick wrapped product for the holiday season.
I know if I said that in the Nexus S forums, i'd get flamed because there are a bunch of nexus s owners that dropped 580 for the phone and need to somehow keep their ego high but this is how i feel about this whole nexus s phone.
So in summary if google released another phone, i'd really have to consider it because plain android is getting boring after 2 years of the same stuff from the G1, MT3G, Nexus1, G2, Nexus S...
Not to diss on custom rom builders either because custom roms takes time to build and by the time you have a very well composed rom, the phone has reached its EOL.
yes the nexus s does seem half baked, the nexus one was a solid phone and wouldn't mind picking up another one.

LOL. I know what you mean. I still don't understand why some people with NS have no problems at all; I had two and both had the same problems. Either they immediately root their phones and put some custom roms on it or they are ignorant. I try yo get the best bang for my bucks and at the moment it is the MT4G with Froyo. I don't even want a custom rom with gingerbread 2.3.1 on my MT4G at the moment. I wait until Gingerbread includes the new music player and GTalk supports the FFC. Let's hope soon
I had the same experience. I had a Nexus S for 2 weeks and it was terribly laggy.
I sent it back. Lucky I hadn't sold my MyTouch yet because now with CM7 Gingerbread is super snappy and amazing.
I blame Samsung. I had the Vibrant before the MT4G and it sucked as well.

I actually did like the vibrant, voodoo lagfix was pretty solid but kinda sucked having to turn it off to flash another rom. Loved the screen, but overall the phone did feel cheap

I agree. Post voodoo the vibrant was a beast. It's just too bad Samsung couldn't get it right out of the box.

Regarding the screen on the NS, I just realized that I am not a big fan of SAMOLED displays. I would always prefer a SLCD. I like the bright and sharp displays over the more vibrant but less sharp SAMOLED.
I got the NS and had it for a week and returned it.
So disappointing, the worst was not having a track pad.
Same day bought a MT4G off Craigslist.
First day I hated it, the stock browser is the worst I've ever seen.
Then I got Skyfire off the market and now I think the MT4G is the best
phone I've ever used.
I'm not giving up on the Nexus line, I still have an N1, I'm just giving up on Samsung.
Is anyone here are excited about Samsung Vibrant 4G? FFC and HSPA+ up to 21mbps? but the same old style lol..what is up with Samsung? can't they change their style? hehehe
Ewww I see Samsung failed and at it again, they have a thing for repeating and screwing users over and over. IDK why people even buy Samsung based phones these days didn't they learn from being abandoned?
BTW epsix read this thread MT4G is capped at 14.4 mb's about new Vibrant 4G in this forum we all covered it there. Its just marketing gimmick hence TMO haven't officially updated the Vibrant with 2.2 OTA? You know why? due to Samsung telling them not to as there is no diff between 4G and reg Vibrant lol other than it has AOS2.2 lol man you have to love Samsung they sure thing people are crazy or something.
PS: Folks stick with MT4G is superior than NS.
Hello,
I thought posting it here would offer non biased opinions by people, since I'm going be asking that I'm trying to decide between galaxy tab or DHD or nexus s. I'm having a hard time deciding, i love htc devices but sammy's tab and nexus s seem very good also. So, I'm looking for your opinion on this, I know the specs of each device.
Wait either a tablet or a phone? Are you planning on using the tablet as a phone or would you have a regular one for use?
Also, I would say to wait because of all of the new phones just announced at CES and with MWC right around the corner, amazing things are going to be happening very, very soon.
But to answer your question now, what are you going to mostly use it for? Are you planning on hacking or... ?

Hi,
Google Nexus uses Android 2.3 Gingerbread OS but Samsung and DHD are using older version. The processor speed of Desire HD is much better. DHD has 8MP camera and other are using 5MP. Comparatively, I recommend DHD tablet.
So, I end up getting the sammy tab. The 7inch screen would be awesome to watch stuff on and it owns the ifail(ipad) in all ways.
Well im glad you like it, but FWIW, the ipad os the best tablet out right now.
It isn't just selling because it was made by apple; I have one myself and I love it to death for what it does.

I'm about to order a nexus s. I'm currently on motorola milestone which has a locked bootloader so I can't make my full custom roms. Is nexus S a good deal or I should know something about it before buying?

there are like 7 pages in another thread about this.. go read that
yes its a good phone, people will probably come here and troll and say that its not good.
If you have to ask you should buy an iPhone.
lol ^ this
I just don't get why people make these threads. There are just so many of them, and in the end.. the OP is the decider. We as users don't decide whether or not you get it. We shouldn't be here just to persuade one person to get a Nexus S, you're posting in a forum where the majority of the users have the phone. So obviously, its going to be biased posts.
Go do your own research and figure out if its for you. Especially when there are so many other threads about this.
^ it's kind of hard for them to decide based off others opinions on the NS. This board is "General" meaning this is where someone would post a topic like this. And the OP isn't asking for unbiased opinions on the NS, just pros and cons. Would you ask this question on the Thunderbolt forum? Probably not...
A question like this is tailored specifically to the person asking, regardless of there being other topics similar, they OPs own question and answers they receive are unique.

No but if you were to ask. Should I get a Thunderbolt or a Nexus S on a Thunderbolt forum. Of course the majority will say Thunderbolt. And there is another "Should I get a Nexus S" thread with the pros and cons listed.
I was asking myself this question 2 months ago and ended up buying it. If I could go back I would have waited for the next successor for the nexus s. That being said, if I had to buy a phone right now I would get it
I think there are a lot of these threads and on the surface they seem silly especially to ask in the forum full of fans. But I also think it's valid, who better to ask about a product than someone who owns it. Maybe the bothersome part of the question is not what he asked but how he worded it.

If your are really looking for a solid reliable phone that has the bootloader that can be very easily unlocked to flash roms and root it in 3.5 min lol then this is the phone for you. I know there's alot of people on here saying that yes you should get it no your getting obvious good feedback on a forum full of people that love this phone but you'll need to look at the pro's and cons tho. First is that I went from a Evo 4g lots of developers on that bad boy then to a g2 still HTC and lots for developers working on ports everyday then to the nexus s all in about a month. now I do have an amazing phone nothing really to complain about BUT that if your a flashaholic there really isn't much which does stink but if you have found a great rom with all the features you need in a everyday use then your good like me. I have found the best rom with performance built right in with great battery life and all the nice little features that I need to keep me happy. Then there's the cons Samsung made this phone and porting and roms wont be flowing out the door. there's a few features that a lower phone really can't say lower but the galaxy s phone have the glitz and Glam of features that where taken away to give us the pure google experience. So the media hub is gone the TV out put features the this the that is all gone but if you like to have a really stable newish 2.3 out the gate then I would get it. I had only seems pics of the nexus s and I normally do a full look over and see YouTube videos on the good and bad but I took the leap and got it off Craigslist and didn't do the homework and man was I surprised I'm so happy I got it for the price I did and how sweet this phone and the potential it has.

For what it's worth, I'm probably returning my NS. After the iPhone 4, Desire Z and the Atrix in the past few months, the NS feels CHEAP. I hate even holding it. Especially since the N1 was one of the greatest phones I've used in terms of it's design.
I would vote for the Atrix, its a dual-core, it's smoother that the NS, yes, you don't have too many roms, but who cares... it works really well with the stock after you freeze Blur.
I hope Google doesn't cheap out the next Nexus.

I purchased the phone the day it released, and it's still my favorite.
Picked up my Nexus S a week ago. I have owned them all, and this Nexus S is my favorite. I had the iPhone 4, and it was like a toy compared to the Nexus S. The Atrix has nice hardware specs, but the Nexus is just as fast and isn't locked out from ROMS.
Hello, I am new to this forum but I do already have a android phone which is the samsung vibrant, and I am thinking that it is time to switch, after Samsung left me and the other vibrant owners behind I decided to get a new phone, I have done some studying on this so far and found the Galaxy Nexus from the Google Play Store for $350, this is a really good price for what I want to pay, but also there is another phone called the HTC One S and I am able to get the HTC One S in the same price range, I am not sure which cellphone I should choose between these two, I would like to know which phone that you would choose in my position. The Galaxy Nexus HSPA+ or the HTC One S, and also if there are any other android phones that are even than these two I have listed with good specifications It would be very much appreciated if you could share it too.
Thank You.
A lot of it depends on preference. The nexus is stock android and will get updates faster than any other phone. And it's great if your going to be installing custom roms. The HTC has sense on top of android which some people like and some people don't. The Samsung galaxy s3 is also available with their touchwiz software and that has solid specs as well.

Between those two I'd definitely get the Nexus. Far easier to customize and definitely not a phone that will be getting left behind on updates.
If you are fan of HTC 's sense then go for one s.

The one s is a good phone, so is the nexus and one s. The g note seems good too, but not everyone has abandoned the vibrant, I have one running on jellybean because of the awesome dev community. Anyway good luck.

I love my gnex and I chose it over the SIII because of google support ! I will only buy nexus devices from now on; I've always had Samsung devices, but didn't like touchwiz, and the fact that I had to wait 8 months to get ics on my tablet, and even now the ui is still laggy in some situation.
That made loose faith in manifacturers, but I've never owned a HTC device to be honest.
I like android and I like it pure, but that's just my opinion anyway.
It really depends on what you plan to do with the device. If you plan to install ROM's, there is plenty of dev work going on around the One S. While it isn't as much as the Nexus, it is still impressive. The camera on the One S is surely better. If you want to stick the the OS that comes pre-loaded, it depends on what your preference is. Do you like the stock Android feel or prefer Sense ? Answer those questions and you will know which cell to buy. :good:
As somebody else advised me, the only selling point of the nexus is the fact that they recieve updates faster. And with xda updates are never a problem. The htc one s is renowned for it s build quality. I would advise you to get that one.
Nexus has bigger screen with more pixels, one x space is taken by permanent hardware buttons. I love soft-buttons for their moddability, though this depends on your tastes of course.
Nexus likely has more deving in general, as a rule.
Normally I would suggest waiting for new stuff, as it seems we're on the cusp, but you want this price point so.
Thank You all for responding, I am leaning more towards the nexus because I really do like to receive updates right away I like to keep my phone on stock but have never tried a ROM, I would probably try a ROM later but the one s has a sleek and nice slim design which really interests me, I am not sure about HTC Sense because I have never used it, but maybe it will be sort of the same as touchwiz as I am used to that. I also might just wait till November since I hear a new galaxy nexus is coming out, maybe even some more phones in that time, Thanks again for the help!
Nexus in my opinion mostly because I prefer the look and feel of the device but the updates will come pretty quick from google and the developers for the nexus phones are great.
have always been a fan of HTC phones until they released the EVO LTE on sprint with a non-removable battery. Not sure if the One S has a removable battery or not, but for me that is a deal breaker. Have also heard really good things about the Nexus. Also like others have said, you will get updates and more customization on the nexus.
I would choose Galaxy nexus becouse it has 4.3 inch display.
Well the nexus has that stock android feel and the one s has the sense ui its all up to preference

I looked at some of the similar threads but they are old and devices change so rapidly so I am starting a new one.
I am looking for some thoughts, opinions, etc on a new device. I have to buy my device on Craigslist, eBay or somewhere because I have an old Verizon plan with unlimited data and can't upgrade without losing my plan and paying their upgrade fee.
I have been using a Toro Nexus on Verizon for about a year. I have been running CM10 and making updates as they are released. Recently my phone took a header out of my truck and now the screen is cracked. So, it is probably time to get something more up to date.
A couple things I am looking at evaluating are:
ROMS and development love available for devices. Which ones get the most love?
If I get something unlocked as in straight from Google like the Maguro would I be able to get a radio which works on Verizon?
Cost is a consideraton as well. For example I like the price of the S3 right now compared to the S4 on CL.
Any thoughts, opinions, facts, guidance, etc would be awesome!

the Galaxy nexus is a great phone it saddens me to see that you would like another phone. but im not you so lets get start with phone shopping shall we?
Google
I can see that you like all the rom and development for devices i happy for that!, most of the time you would want one of googles flagship phones that is plain ol stock android (nexus s, galaxy nexus, nexus 4 etc..) googles is so great to us since its stock android its much easyer to flash roms and put other goodies on our phones! i have heard the nexus 4 is one of the best phones around right now (not to mention the new white nexus 4 thats coming out soon with Android 4.3!) so if its on your provider i would recomend that from google!
Samsung
So from what you said you want a phone around the price of a S3, from that right there i would recomend a S3! Samsung does a great job with their phones its not the same stock android like the galaxy nexus they have spiced android up to what they call touchwiz which is a very smooth version for their launchers. a S2 might sound old but even that would be a great phone (i dont know about the specs galaxy neuxs might be a little newer so S3 might be better to get). rooting should be very simple all i had to do for my S2 was to flash a pda file from odin so its again easy to be able to join in on all the development. i think i have heard that the S3 (and maby S2) is getting alot of Goodies from the S4.
LG
i have only had some LG phones and in the past they werent so good but their newest flagship the Optimus G Pro is sposed to be aso good as the HTC one and S4 i dont think LG has their own type of launcher such as samsungs touchwiz, htcs Sense, or motorolas motor blur. so that probably means stock android and pretty easy to root and flash stuff.
HTC
the HTC dream was the first android phone, all of their phones are amazing i have had many of their devices, sense is a very smooth, sense 4.0 and up is sposed to be great. the One and its new blinkfeed feature i have heard can get old within a month or two so im not sure. about rooting with htc phones can be a pain. its different between each phone my droid incredible i had to unlock the bootloader turn s-on off downgrade just to be able to get root and cwm and its all a big pain, htc just dosent want us to screw with it maby. for my htc inspire 4g i had to just only unlock the bootloader and could flash a root from there but still was a pain, so if you can deal with some of the fears of easily bricking your phone you can try these phones!
there are alot of (im just going to call them third party but they arent really) third party phones such as huawei, ZTE, kyocera that some are deff better phones from these people that are better than the galaxy nexus just ask if you would like me to explain them!

Thank you for all the info. Much appreciated. The Galaxy Nexus (Toro) is a wonderful phone. I believe it is the longest running in my pocket. It broke my heart when it took a swan dive out of my truck Sunday. I would absolutely go with another of these. The question on that topic is could a guy get the Maguro to work on Verizon's CDMA network? I don't know that much about the hardware but I'd LOVE to try Ubuntu Touch.
There is a local guy who has an S3 advertised on CL for $175. I'd have to evaluate that guy first though. Would I be as happy with the development on the S3 as I have been on the Toro?
