Nexus S or some other phone???? - General Questions and Answers

I was planning to buy nexus s nd i even got a deal for $359
But after the launch of samsung galaxy nexus,samsung has stopped all the warranty and after sales service for the nexus s
So which phone should I buy??
and my budget is of $360 Only

What carrier? That is alot to pay for an outdated phone. You can get a used phone that is much better for $360...

Don't get a nexus S, its a hardly upgraded vibrant that was a complete waste of money on release. I bought a used one for 180 and gave it to my 5 year old sister it was such a letdown.

If you really must have a developer phone when wait for the Galaxy Nexus. Otherwise, I recommend any of the Samsung branded phones. I love my Galaxy Captivate, my wife uses the new Galaxy Infuse and the Galaxy S II looks bad-ass IMO.

I don't completely disagree, although the Vibrant was priced similarly just anywhere I looked (at least in my part of Canada back when I bought mine).
Sometimes wish I got the Vibrant for the Gorilla glass, but I'm definitely loving the dev community the Nexus S has. That's what is really making me feel like I made a good decision.

And how many devs do you think will stick around with a new nexus out? Think about it.

Enough in my honest opinion, seeing how some lesser phones still get development for a few months after becoming "obsolete" in the sense of their technology getting slightly outdated.
Nevertheless, I think all Nexus models will get decent development, judging from the Nexus One and S.
It's a game nobody will win, technology is forever going further and the moment you buy something, there's something new right around the corner or already available on the market. You can always decide to play the waiting game if you're not in need for a change right now, just don't get stuck waiting forever...

A damn lot! Look at the Nexus One! If I'm not mistaken, Dr Kmobs from cyanogenmod is still using and developing for his. The nexus One was either the first or second device to get an ICS SDK port. Not everyone can afford the latest and greatest, any dev phone will get a fair amount of custom ROM love. If you can get a good deal on a nexus S, and you think its what you want, go for it. You aren't gonna be left behind any time soon. That said, if you want the very latest and greatest, get a galaxy nexus, its a huge upgrade.
Don't worry about developer support, just worry about getting scratches on the battery door

Nothing like a huge cover to keep it from getting scratched!
Can't wait for the day our phones are near indestructible bricks lasting forever on a charge. It's sad to have such sexy technology getting covered with covers, enhanced with bulky batteries and needing to be constantly plugged in.
Likely the only reasons I miss the days I was using dumbphones, they were indestructible or of no real value, they would last a week on a charge and definitely did not cost as much.

I'l have to buy an unlocked phone(NEW)
if you guyz dont recommend nexus s then plz suggest me with something else
Samsung captivate(bad)
NO FLASH IN CAMERA

my suggestion, watch Craigslist. My gs2 cost me 280 dollars like new.

I think xperia neo is also a good option.
I am getting it for the same price($359)
But I want to get the ICS update as fast as possible...
And acc. to you guyz wen will we get some used GALAXY NEXUS (NEXUS PRIME)
on ebay.com

I will strongly recommend you Samsung Galaxy S2 if your budget provides. Other than that, Nexus S is actually a pretty good phone (very good for this price). The next Google phone series is Galaxy Nexus which will be priced around 35k (INR). That may overkill your budget.
Better stick with Nexus S. It will also get the ICS update very soon, at least earlier than other non-stock android phones (Galaxy S2).
As for Xperia Neo V, it is a great phone too, if you can get it around for 15k (@ adexmart). You may want to try both of these phones at a retail store. Thumbs up to whichever suits you better.
To be honest, you may want to ask for such queries @ thinkdigit. They're aware of the Indian smartphone market better.

I love my NS. The development community is very active, and it'll get even more so when ICS is pushed to the NS!
Plus, with Voodoo and a very stable CyanogenMod build, it blows the doors off my old Vibrant. The stock-black with no carrier branding looks very sexy, too.

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.

I don't care if any one think's I do/don't have an Iphone "5" or not. I like my galaxy s2 better any ways.
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.

[Q]Buy this or wait for Galaxy Nexus

I currently have an Infuse 4G and after having a phone with 4.5" display I dont think I could ever have another phone with smaller display. I'm not in an LTE are but frequently travel to multiple LTE areas in Texas. I have my money saved up for the Galaxy Nexus Unlocked but I'm really almost tired of waiting. I've kinda been looking at these forums off and on waiting to see if this phone is gonna get any love cause I really like the "idea" of it. You guys think it will get its own forums and any dev work soon. Cause the Galaxy Nexus ship might just be sinking for me...
Tired of waiting on Google/Samsung's Failed Launch...
New phones are like my crack I just gotta have em.
I doubt AT&T will subsidize the galaxy nexus. What is likely to happen is google will sell it to you unsubsidized and AT&T will let you use it on their network. The nexus line has never been available on a carrier at launch until verizon.
Yeah I know that, I dont have an available upgrade right now anyway I had planned on purchasing the Nexus outright, and would do the same for the skyrocket if I decided to go that route i'm trying to get a feel for the phone is there gonna be any love from xda in the way of some forums and any devs coming this way is what I want to know.

i had the same dellima...... But if your going to pay FULL price for either phone.
Hit up BESTBUY i bought the Skyrocket full price on the (BUYBACK PROGRAM) if the Galaxy Nexus or Note drop within 6 months i can take it back and get 50% of what i paid for the phone back and apply that to the next phone. so ina sence your still only paying FULL price for 2 phones.....
a win win in my book becuase i will be getting either one of those when they drop.

Or you could upgrade to an iphone 4s and use it for a little while because they have a good resale value and won't be outdated in at least a year.
But consider these cons about the nexus:
No microsd
Old GPU/not cutting-edge CPU
Thick
Only 5MP
Will be even more outdated by the time it comes out

I was in the exact same boat and ultimately pulled the trigger on the Skyrocket. My rationale at the end was that the only tangible improvements out there for this phone would be screen resolution and form factor. Other than that, its pretty future proof and should hold value well if I want to resale.
Absolutely love it so far.

I'm really tempted to go ahead and get this. I really like having an sd card slot on my phones and the lack of gorilla glass on the nexus is kinda scary also. Not to mention that it steps down to a 5mp camera. However the development for the nexus is going to be nice and the vanilla andriod. I'd pull my hair out if I had any....
There will be some development for this and a lot for the Nexus. Nexus accessories started popping up at Verizon Stores so that may be a sign of things to come as far as the unlocked version as well.
Sorry, what I meant to say earlier is that when the nexus comes out unsubsidized a good option would be to buy an iphone 4s subsidized and sell it on ebay to get the nexus for a subsidized price. The vanilla ICS and developer compatibility of a nexus trumps all its cons IMO, but I couldn't wait any longer.
I am very glad to hear that many many others are in the same boat as myself. I have done my research, and on pg 138 of the usermanual for the skyrocket it says that the phone does have NFC, but it will be activated at a later time... maybe for ICS and Android Beam?
I am coming from a Nexus S, on ATT when it was free at Best Buy about 3 months ago... and I am lucky enough to have a wonderful girlfriend that will give me her upgrade and let her have my Nexus S.
I think I am going to take the plung with some of you today and buy a Skyrocket, though I am near DC... I'm not sure if I'll get good LTE.
Good tidings!

There are several reasons not to go with the galaxy nexus. It doesn't have the true Super AMOLED screen that the gs2 has, so the screen will be duller. The screen doesn't have gorilla glass, so it will be more likely to break or shatter. The larger screen may be nice if you like it, but it means lower resolution. Plus, the real advantage of it, ICS, is close to irrelevant if you have cyanogenmod on your phone.

that coupled with ICS i can see ALOT of people jumping on this when it drops......or the NOTE
and the screen is CURVED! That's in it self is a selling point!
I have another upgrade...but I figure I get a S2 now and use that upgrade for the Prime... IF it comes to AT&T... if it does it probably will be a while after the initial release
The ONLY thing that is putting me off is the lack of the external SD card. I had an i4 and I REALLY hated the fact that when I want to get something from my phone I have to connect it and pull it off.
Otherwise to me.. the Nexus Prime is the one to have.

Woah, did you find a post that was off topic? Thanks for protecting us from Android related discussion, bro!
the JB didn't look so much different from ICS. i mean it IS "4.1" not 5.0
it looks like a little bit tweaked ICS. i'm pretty sure the devs here or cyanogenmod team would be able to bring JB experience soon. official JB would take forever with the Touchwiz overlay and bloatware of course.
even so, i'm sure we'll definitely get it official or unofficial since our phone is better in hardwares compared to the galaxy nexus.
nexus 7 is definitely making my wallet go crazy though.

I already have a buyer offering me 380, I'm sad to let my gs2 go though (first Android phone)
Also gotta T-Mobile S2. I highly doubt this phone will get JB seeing how it just got ICS not even 2 weeks ago. Not gonna sell it for a nexus tho, i like the camera on mine and I'm sure there will be a new nexus phone this year.

The next nexus will be much better, I'm also looking forward to it..
Swyped from my GT-i9100
If it's for JB, Sammy's already stated they're working on it for the S2 and S3. Obviously that could take quite a while knowing their reputation but CM10 will come to save the day. So you're not missing out with the S2. Not to mention the nexus hardware is a teeny bit outdated at the moment, you'll notice it. Personally, Id stick with the S2. It really is the better phone. Hope I helped
the Galaxy note 2 should be out shortly and that phone is going to be a BEAST.
I also have a galaxy s2 that I'm planning on selling but was thinking about keeping as a secondary and just dropping my insurance.
The plus is that you can probably get about $250 for the Galaxy s2 with your accessories if you sell now.

I would only get a nexus if you wanted vanilla android right out the box. Personally, I think the S2 is the better phone. Better processor, camera, and it has an SD card slot.
The one thing I love about the nexus is the notification light being in the same location as the nexus one ..not a big deal but still kinda cool..

From the introducing of Nexus brand by Google it became the phone of Developer.
I bought one in 2010 and am using it today.
I know that it is too old, but I love it.
My opinion - to get Nexus.
(maybe wait the the next model)
I'm thinking the same. I'm using SGS2 T989 now and really like pure Android OS. I'll wait for the next Google phone. In the meantime, I'll just wait for CM9/10 to be stable enough for my T989
Wait
Probably a good idea to wait for the next Nexus phone, maybe from Motorola this time?
Are you upgrading for the sake of upgrading or do you have a real need? I'm personally going to skip this generation as I see no need for a new phone
Im aggree with ez2.. Galaxy note 2 best!!

Nope. My Legend deserved the rest and I'm loving the Nexus.
I think depending on how much you paid for it. Stateside is pretty good value.. Euro side not so much imo.
Nope, I came from a Moto Atrix... Living with a giant middle finger from Motorola. Used as many custom roms as I could to keep it relevant, but that thing to me was basically treated as DOA. The most expensive, ignored, bastard child of modern smartphones I've ever bought... I paid $1000 for it outright day 1 when I was working in S.Korea. Somewhat ahead of it's time, but treated like garbage.
Will not purchase another Moto phone... which is kind of odd considering I own the godsend from mother Google.
Now if Moto makes a Nexus, not quite sure what I'll do... I've blacklisted Motorola.
Could get a nice deal with Tele2 so went for it.
Cheap subscription, lots of minutes, and a nice phone.

My old phone was a Nexus S, and although that was immense, no i don't regret it.
Had my head turned by the HTC One and if the Moto X was available here that would get a look in, but would still probably go for the N5.
Come from galaxy s4 Did not regret a second of it I should have skipped the s4 and come from the nexus s straight
no regret
I regret not getting a Note 3, but then again I did purchase this device outright at less than 2/3 the price of a Note 3, and there are tremendous amounts of development already available considering how new this device is.
I think I lose and gain some. Battery life however would technically still be better on the Note 3, but I ain't really complaining here since I'm not really getting wakelocks. I do miss the big screen however and the more vibrant display I did gain superb call quality and call volume however

Well, I came from owning a Note 2 for about 8 months. I'd say wait for Note 4. No reason to jump phones so many times so soon. This phone is quite well for the price.
No regret at all. Love the N5. :good:

well im elegible for an upgrade now.. And was thinking about getting a phone sell it so i can pay my credit card bill from the nexus 5... But not sure if i should return the nexus and just buy a note 3/s4 which imo will have a better sell price when new phones come out...
I think the nexus will sell used for $200 where the samsungs will probably be around 300-350
Basically for me both of them are the same price...
This is easily the best phone I've ever owned and having stock Android that is not some skinned-and-never-updated crap is a godsend. I've always put ROMs on my other Android phones before but I really don't think I will on this one.
Not one regret at ALL. @ OP why even sign another contract? Wonder how underwater you are with your car loan
good day.
Nope, didn't want to buy a cell phone until next year but my Galaxy Nexus started having issues. Love the Nexus 5 so far!
Yes, I have some regrets. The battery life doesn't feel much better than my GNex and I wish the screen was bigger. Not saying I don't want to keep it, I'm just not sure. Maybe with the right kernel and apps it will be perfect. Or maybe I should've gotten a G2. I just don't know how the ROMs on that would turn out, and I like having wireless charging.
