Not a chance in hell. My brother has a mt4g and its nothing compared to the nexus s.

I honestly don't see anything wrong with that trade. I recently traded a 1 day old black and white myTouch 4g for my Nexus S. Both phones are great devices.
In my opinion the Nexus S is a little over hyped. There are two things that I find that makes the Nexus S a winner over the myTouch and that's the Samoled screen and Android updates.
Who really uses NFC? No external SD, no 720p, browser is kind of laggy while playing flash content, no 4g, 512mb of ram, no led (I am aware that there's an app that solves this issue)
I KNOW IT SOUNDS AS THOUGH I HATE THE NEXUS S, BUT TRUST ME I DONT. IF I DID ID EASILY SWITCH BACK TO THE MYTOUCH 4g.
I GUESS ITS ALL ABOUT USER PREFERENCE. THE NEXUS S WINS ME OVER BECAUSE OF THE SCREEN, ITS A VERY LIGHT FEELING DEVICE, CAPACITIVE BUTTONS AND THE UPDATES STRAIGHT FROM GOOGLE.
EDIT: IF YOU WANT ANDROID 2.3.3 YOU CAN EASILY ROOT AND TURN THE MYTOUCH 4G INTO A NEXUS S.
I HAD CM7 ON MY OLD MYTOUCH 4G AND IT RAN SMOOTHLY.

Sorry for the caps, but like I say its all about user preference. I always make decisions on a product by watching a few YouTube videos and by reading about it.

What do you mean no LED?
I'd take the Nexus S, I like direct Google powers.

As in the little LED notification light that lets you know if you have an email, sms or something without having to turn on the screen.
Personally I haven't missed that feature at all ... my phone makes a noise when one arrives, and if I want to deal with it there and then then I will. If I forget then next time I unlock the phone there are notifications in the notifications tray.
Anyway, as poster said - there are apps that can give you that kind of functionality if you miss it.

Thank you for answering the post. The NS isn't a bad phone like I say, also keep in fact that the mytouch 4g isn't a bad phone either. Its just as fast, and even faster when overclocked to 1.8ghz (although that doesn't matter since no one will keep the phone running at 1.8ghz for more than a few minutes to an hour or 2).

Just the name "MyTouch" and the ugly looks make it inferior to the NS.

Maybe I'm reading this wrong....but are you saying that you're giving him a Nexus S PLUS $75 for a myTouch 4g?
If so, hell no! Maybe the other way around, but not a Nexus plus money for a freakin' myTouch.

He's saying that he's getting $75 in the deal. I honestly don't know why everyone hates the myTouch so much. Lets be honest, what makes the Nexus S so much greater than the myTouch 4g? Is it the screen or the NFC chip? As far as software comes into play, the myTouch 4g can easily be installed with 2.3.3 and it works flawlessly. The myTouch 4g is slightly greater than the Nexus S if you guys take the time out to do some research.
EDIT: This is not meant to be a rant or meant to bash the Nexus S. I love my Nexus S. I'm just speaking fact.

So right now I have a rooted hero runnin 2.3 and I want nnothing more than a new phone. I'm highly considering the ns4g, or tue evo. I'd like some ffeedback from nexus ownerson wwhat they think about the s, thank you in advance

I came from the Hero running 2.3 to the nexus myself. I can't get over the difference. It's amazing how easy it to read thing on the screen, how much bridget everything looks. Just the over-all better-ness of the phone. Do it, you won't regret it.

The evo hasalot of Dev support. But its aging hardware will be hurtfull for you after a year. Get the nexus just better over all and of coarse its a Google phone so no waiting for a port you get it first

Can't the same be said for the Nexus; hell a new nexus has already been announced. I am not partial to either one as I have access to both; simply playing devils advocate.

But the evo hardware is going to be far slower in a year than nexus hardware. The Hummingbird processor we've seen in the SGS family is by far better than what the evo is sporting.
I don't have a single concern about my Nexus S (or Epic) not being adequate in a year or two.... I have used an evo now and I already feel that it's a slow clumsy device shoe-horned into a large enclosure to attract the "hummer crowd" ... bigger is better, am i right?
I just got rid of my epic for the ns4g (cracked screen on epic). My fiancée has the EVO and I have to say its a night and day comparison. Battery on the nexus is much better. Everything is smoother, and of course the display is 100x better. The EVO is a nice phone, but hardware wise its a bit out of date.

True but right now a evo will get screwed playing angry birds with ad's with kernels and cm7. Its a nice phone but getting one now would not be a wise descion with this in the same line up
Sent from my Nexus S 4G using XDA App
Ty everyone, the nexus being a Google phone is the big selling point to me, I do like the size of the ebo, my dad has one, but it can get a little laggy sometimes, I still have almost a year to upgrade. But the nex will still be my first choice. Unless the nrxt one comes to sprint, and has ics and dual core p:

I just got the sensesation today I had a mytouch 4G and loved it. I was really looking forward to the sensesation now that I got it I'm not happy with it I'm little disappointed. When I'm on the phone and turn the speaker on it is so low that in order for me to hear I have to put it up to my ear. Maybe I'm not giving the phone a chance and once we can root it then it will be awesome. But I need some opinions if I do trade it in what phone should I get instead of it. I've heard a lot of talk about the Samsung galaxy s. I'm thinking I might just go back to the mytouch. Oh and also the speaker part is not main reason why I'm disappointed in the phone
Sent from my HTC Sensation 4G using XDA Premium App
What is it that you find disappointing?
My loud speaker for calling is functioning OK. For me its as loud as my Desire HD.
Hmm I'm not if it's just my phone or what but the speaker volume is so low I don't even bother using it now.
Sent from my HTC Sensation 4G using XDA Premium App
the mytouch 4g started this way too. Just wait for root and enhancement. In the mean time try using player pro. Its plays the music through loud speaker louder than the stock.
But if your dissappointed the go back to your mt4g. I personally found it to be a nice upgrade over my mt4g.
Sent from my HTC Sensation 4G using XDA Premium App
Don't get the Galaxy S, wait for the S2 if your going to return it. Before I got the phone I kept reading the speaker on the phone is bad, it's actually a very good upgrade from the one I had on my HD2. I'm loving the phone! Give it some more time
Go to menu>settings>call>check the "hearing aids" box that amplifies all volumes

SK4G is unsupported both by devs and Samsung. Aren't you guys still stuck with Froyo or something? Either way even if you get GB you'll never see anything past GB unless you get CM9, which is highly unlikely.
MT4G has awesome Sense ROM's, a solid MIUI ROM, and a very stable CM7 ROM with CM9 looking within weeks.

What he said
I actually traded my sk4g for a Mytouch and its completely with it. Yes a keyboard its nice but there's no development, and the Mytouch has a bigger screen and typing/swyping is a lot easier that on the sidekick screen.

Getting a Mytouch 4G for a Sidekick 4G is like getting an Audi for Kia (I don't specifically have anything against Kia, but I doubt anyone will argue that a Kia is a better car than an Audi). Don't ask questions. TRADE! Trade and run before your friend realizes their mistake.
I played with a Sidekick 4G for a few minutes and it was a joke. Minus a physical keyboard a Mytouch 4G is better in every way.

Im about to buy a pair of beats on ebay as they are quite cheap 30$ only and im wondering if anyone could give me some feedback here...

It depends on what kind of music you listen to If you listen to Trace and Rap and stuff it's good for you because beats have enhanced bass
If you listen to Rock and Metal (like me) I'd suggest you to buy Akg earphones..
or you can buy some Sennheiser earphones which are really good for every one
P.s make sure you're not buying fake ones
Hard to say. I am sure it was my fault though I used them for work. They did last about 6 months

You will enjoy the beats earphones. I know alot of people are antibeats and alot of people (especially on this forum) think that its a ripoff to get em.. But hey for $30 its a darn good price for good quality earphones. I own em and im happy with it. It serves the purpose of what i use it for (jogging, work, gaming, etc) perfect earphones. As for the htc earphones. Not sure what to say man.. The ear piece is too big so it could hardly fit in my ears..plus not good for jogging cuz it would always fall off.. Other than that though, the sound is pretty good. Cheers mate~ hope you enjoy your new earphones.
Thanks for the input really appreciate it

hmm, $30 for Rezound beats, not a bad price if you love bass-heavy sound signiture.
If it is around $50(some place mark it as $50 or even higher), there would be lots of better products.
