I'm considering to buy a long lasting phone and Nexus S seem to be good, do you think it will survive over 2 years without casing? I'm good at caring phone, my current Sony Ericsson G900 is already over 2 years old and still functioning perfectly (it looks worn out clearly) and most people who have my phone broke within a year.
Nexus S is going to be my first Android phone, only thing that I don't like that you can't enable or disable flash in camera mode, it will decide if it should flash or not by it own. The design seem awkward but I could handle it.
I'm also considering Incredible S but it doesn't have enough developers and it's still locked, so I guess I should go for Nexus S.
What do you think, will it survive more than 2 years?

It probably would if your G900 did.
But the galaxy s II is more durable than both.

It depends of what you talking about ? If hardware wise maybe and Evo 3D , htc sensation or SGSII but about updates most likely this one , any phone that is in the market and is a high end device most likely get ice cream(next big update for android) , nexus s most likely get it before anyone else(besides maybe nexus 3) google is trying to get manucfactures to make sure their phones they get updates within 18 months since launch but first they havent sign a form or paper that says they will second they haven't said for how long after google releases the update they need to release it as well so for all I know they could take 6 months( Evo is getting official gingerbread after 6 months, rolling out June 6, and the Evo was one of the best android phones in 2010 and a best carrier phone ) So I would stick with google if you want timely updates , that's one of the reason I got Me a nexus s
He is talking about the phone durability and yes, I would say it should last 2 years. It's made of plastic but it's not poor quality, it's much better then the galaxy S.
Since its a Google phone, you can't go wrong on picking it, it will always have the up-to-date software and will always have developers, even after 3 years (well, unless its about hardware limitation).
Its currently one of the best (if not the best) single core devices on the market, its definitely future proof.
And the camera does have the ability to turn the flash on or off, depending on your preferences.
The design is gorgeous btw, at least I think it is. The curve form is unique and when the display is turned off it looks completely black and clean, I think it looks very elegant.

Thanks for your responses. Though there's one problem, I live in Moscow, Russia and there is no Google support store or something like that, if I need phone repair, it won't be possible?
Though I never need any repairs in past, so hopefully it will be same for Nexus S.

Don't use your rubles on a nexus s when its going to be outdated in a few months
Or, if you can't wait, then just get the GSII. Its what the nexus s shoulda been lol [just the only major letdown is...Touchwiz :'(] plus its available in the motherland, no?

really? yours creaks? i havent heard that one before. no creaking here. my only complaint is that id put the volume buttons where the power buttons is, and vice versa. but thats no biggie.
my ns4g feels solid, but to answer your question, YMMV.
Just heard that verizon has officially passed up on carrying the galaxy s 2. What a **** move, it was going to be my next phone. I guess sammy didn't want to add 4g so they passed. At least that's what i read just now on neowin. God im ticked!
Fine with me. I will not touch another Samsung phone after the epic fail with the Galaxy 1 series (I had the ATT Captivate).

Yep, it's a good phone. Galaxy s1 series issues were mostly the file system's fault. They went with ext4 on the s2, not the crappy RFS hacked up crap they used to use.
Well hopefully the nexus prime is coming then.

True, forgot about that. At least the driver for GPS is opensource in the S2, so potentially it could be fixed by the community if it's not a hardware issue itself.

Vzw probably passed on the sgs2 becuase they are getting the nexus prime made by Samsung. Why carry both phones, it doesn't make sense, if the prime is everything it is supposed to be no one will want the sgs2.

It sucks that Verizon decided against the GSII. I am ready to move on from the Thunderbolt. I don't think the Bionic will be quite on par, but who knows....
Oh well, hopefully they'll get the Nexus Prime.
My sgs2 actually saved me from being a rom addict lol. Since I got it I didn't feel the need of custom roms. Stock gs2 rom its perfectly fast... I have the phone for about 3 months and still running stock ...phone is sick.... I hope the t mobile or sprint version comes with the exynos CPU.....

I've heard that several times now-- basically every "premium" android phone that's come down the pipes from them
Hey guys, not long ago there had been reports regarding an anonymous user having the opportunity to try out a Nexus Prime beta unit and he reported the information on the net. Here are the details.
http://www.seednonym.com/2011/09/information-regarding-upcoming-nexus.html
The reliability of the information is rather solid itself, as it was Samsung itself who granted the "anonymous" the test unit.
Let me know what you guys think. Thank you. The information may not be precise, hence read it with a pinch of salt.
Update 1: Accordingly current Exynos chipsets do not support LTE and the Nexus Prime is unlikely to be 3G only. Most predictions are pointing towards TI OMAP4460 bundled with PowerVR SGX544.
Rumors and rumors, an anonymous 4chan user
lol 4chan has zero credibility from everything I hear.
i think it is just a rumor again. Just wait to November when Samsung/Google release it :d
haha yeah, just that the rumour sounds too true to be rumour, i've decided to share it with you guys.
First post updated.
you can't believe anything from 4chan, there's no solid proof
also if they did had it on hand, why they couldn't even snap a picture of the phone, huh?
LOL at least they could have photoshop one to make it more believable
Prime will be using omap chip as confirmed since day 1. Don't know when exynos rumor began?

Although I'd like to see the same, Samsung does tend to have much better hardware. It doesn't really matter who makes it though because it'll still have stock Android on it.
The folders and ease of use of the device, sounds a lot like the Droid Bionic.
.... Apple don't complain and go to legal actions about patents, glass and metal case etc., after first have released Iphone 5 before the SII hits the market.

It's anyone's guess at this stage what the next Samsung Galaxy smartphone is going to be like, lots of rumors doing the rounds personally im happy to wait until next year with the GS2 which is still the best in the business.
[The rumored specs of the GS3 though do sound amazing]

For my part I hope Samsung do more both hardware, and software, testing before launching the SIII.
On Tuesday I'm going to send my S2 and Tab 10.1 back for repair.
The S2 have random locs/reboots and somewhat loose homebutton.
The TAB has watermarks/newton-rings.
Maybe I have been unlucky with my first Samsung devices but I have never had devices, 30-40 phones and pc's over the years, with faults like this after only 2 months use.

You're claiming to have an iphone 5?
4.3" is big enough, add a case and you're carrying a novel in your pocket, 4.7" will be like carrying a box of cereal in your pocket. That said, if it's light, and slim, it might not be so bad.

Edit: ontopic
I think 4core phones will be when the smart phone market nears it's highest point. The S3 may start to get Iphone like sales as well if it get's to the states faster than the S2.

I did not bring it up like I want to be cool or anything. I have had alot of thing's before anyone else:
Halo: ODST
Cr-48
A game I can't name at this time( They will come to get me if name it.)
And now the Iphone ok.
P.S Ok so not a lot, but you get the point. The Cr-48 was the coolest to me and I have not had the phone for long they are just geting them in. I did not think every one would be so mad, but the ICS thread should have spelled it out for me.
Now about the Iphone part, I was just saying I am unlikey going to buy the S3, but it should be cool and I can't wait to see it.
Edit: You will all see the truth on 09/4/11.
I did some research earlier today and i want to inform u guys about what I found before u trade in Ur tbolt.
I found that during fall HTC will be releasing a phone to Verizon in competition to AT&T's Samsung galaxy note. This device will be a 5.0 inch display, quad core with tegra 3 HD graphics. It is also gonna be the first device with stock sense 5.0. Release date will be sometime between September 22 and December 22. I think its worth waiting a couple more months for something that sounds so amazing. It's the best idea to wait if u like HTC phones best because u will have to keep it for 2 years so why not make the right choice so u can fully enjoy the 2 years u have with that device.

By the time it actually makes it to the customer it has 200 worthless apps installed 150 "trial" versions of this and that. It is just rediculous. Nexus you say? Oh like I could get the Galaxy nexus for 250$ which is only half as good as the newest samsung device that released only what 2 months later. If you ask me Samsung did that on purpose so everyone would upgrade to the S3 right after they picked up a nexus which many did. Its just sad to see such a great operating system look like a slow fat cow due to all the bloat ware from the manufacturer and carriers. Ive had friends do nothing but bad mouth android due to this.

Im going to stay away from HTC untill sense stops being such a fat pig and stealing all my resources. I don't know why I cant just get a phone with vanilla android AND the best hardware on the market. I feel that phone manufactures take a great piece of hardware then cram it full of all the bloaty fat **** that they can find then send it to the carrier that crams if even more full of worthless ****. By the time it actually makes it to the customer it has 200 worthless apps installed 150 "trial" versions of this and that. It is just rediculous. Nexus you say? Oh like I could get the Galaxy nexus for 250$ which is only half as good as the newest samsung device that released only what 2 months later. If you ask me Samsung did that on purpose so everyone would upgrade to the S3 right after they picked up a nexus which many did. Its just sad to see such a great operating system look like a slow fat cow due to all the bloat ware from the manufacturer and carriers. Ive had friends do nothing but bad mouth android due to this.

Have you used Sense 4.0? It's not a hog like 3.x was.
My buddy has a incredible 4 and sense 4.0 still slows down the s4

I'm not a fan of Samsung, I like HTC's phone designs, but that's it. Sense has gone downhill since 2.0 and they release new versions like every month, 2.0, 2.1, 3.0, 3.5, 3.6, 4.0, they were on Sense 1 for like a year... And it was great!

Same. And that being with on-screen buttons for me.

I think I am the last remaining user who prefers capacitive buttons. I don't like how screen buttons make viewing size of screen smaller.

The screen buttons disappear when watching Movies though, which actually increases the viewing size.
Who actually uses their phone as a phone anyway? The bigger the better IMO.

I know right? I want the kind the jetsons had, where you press a button and it transforms in to a giant screen! Lol

if i ever buy another HTC phone, it better be able to remotely corrupt iphones, that would give me reason to tolerate the slooooooooooow updates because i wouldn't have to hear "hello siri" anymore.
