Nexus 1 VS. Nexus S VS. Galaxy Nexus.

Don't get me wrong because I have a Galaxy nexus and I absolutely love it to death. I actually own all three of them and all are in mint condition. I have to say that the Nexus 1 is still better looking than the other two. It never functioned perfectly but I like to think of them as Super cars. They are pure in form but always have something wrong with them. The buttons on the Nexus one make me crazy. I sometimes have to push them multiple times to get them to work. The Nexus S looks all sexy and black but it crashes a lot and sometimes the screen does some very odd stuff. I have actually seen it sit cocked a quarter turn. The Galaxy Nexus is a great looking phone and mine so far has restarted itself, doesn't like my router, and drops volume yet I don't care its amazing. And I think its crap that Verizon is messing with the google pure experience that makes my gsm unlocked worth the $750 that I paid for it.

Damn I thought this was gonna be some speed tests with them all running ICS...

Thats a given that the n1 would be slower than the ns and that slower than the GN.

Yeah I also owned all three (don't have the nexus one anymore) and I think that the nexus one was the best built phone.
It felt good when holding it and the design was nice. It's was the perfect size except for the screen size ofcourse.
If I had to put them in order of "likeness" it would be
- Nexus One
- Galaxy Nexus
- Nexus S

I agree the N1 was so far ahead of anything else out as well.

Aside from the metal build of n1 and micro sd think the galaxy nexus trumps all aspects of both phones. The lack of micro SD is a big bummer.

The trackball that shipped with the Nexus One is white. They gradually turn yellow, then brown, then grey, and finally black from the collection of dirt and grease.

I have only ever owned the latest out of the Nexus phones, so I can't say anything as far as performance or build quality is considered.
But in terms of industrial design, I think it goes Galaxy Nexus > Nexus S > Nexus One from best to worst looking.
I think the Galaxy Nexus is very mature and classy looking, one reason I decided to move from SGS2 to the SGN. The Nexus S looked okay but somehow looked like a bastardized Galaxy S phone. I thought the Nexus One looked really funky with the mismatched paintjob and overly rounded corners.
I have to say the Nexus One is probably the best built of them all though, I'm pretty unhappy with the rear cover on the SGN - I was happy with the rear cover on the SGS2 because even thought it feels cheap it actually wasn't... the SGN flexes in the center of the rear cover, and the Google logo on the back isn't entirely flush which makes it kind of weird to hold if your finger is rubbing on the logo.

HTC build > Samsung build

My Nexus One had poor radio performance and couldn't get a signal in my office.
I couldn't press directly on the capacitive buttons, I had to touch slightly above them for them to work.
I have no idea why, but it is still my favorite phone.
Just recently sold it to help pay for the new Nexus

Must say the nexus s is nicer to hold but that's probably due to the size difference between them I've owned lots of large phones desire HD and the sgs 2 and the galaxy nexus to me falls on the borderline of acceptable size ...still love it tho just harder to use single handed.
Must say I do miss my HTC legend and swype sometimes was a dream to text on

it really depends....

Probably most of the complainers are from LTE because 4G LTE is using a lot of their battery. 4.0.4 also addresses some of these problems with android os battery leaks.

Yeah I truly love this nexus. So elegant looking, beautiful smooth and modern/smart UI. And button less front just looks stunning watching HD YouTube videos in the app. Its gorgeous. Plus idle battery usage stays dead flat. Its perfect.

It is such a gorgeous phone .. but the hardware specs are falling behind with the advent of HTC the OneX ... thinking about switching ...
Although in the couple of weeks I used the GNEX I was stunned by how everything in it screams gorgeous ..

[Q] Does your phone creak?

Just want to see how many of you guys have a HOX that creaks at the back and what you've done with them?
Mines started creaking, can't return it been over 28 days currently on second replacement. Spoke to DAP who said I'd need to send it to their partner for repairs. But doubting what condition it'll come back in!

You not going for the S3 then mate? And i had that with first phone i had and got it replaced. Was in the first week i noticed it so returned it back straight away..Was the white one. Got a grey one now and it works fine no issues at all

Nah, think I may give the S3 a miss this time. Sense is just a better experience than TouchWiz. This phone will only get better.
Will give it a week or so before returning it back to HTC for a repair. Will see if creaking goes or not as no other issues apart from that.
I expect another Samsung device will be anticipated after iPhone 5 release maybe that will be the one to rule them all. The note 2!

It only creaks in a case if you press hard. So not too bothersome. Naked it creaks if pressed with pressure. Q3 onwards should be good to see what we get.

The nexus has better screen size (4.65"), resolution (720p) and development.
The One S has better processor (dual-core s4) and custom hardware (image sense).
So it depends on what you want.

nexus vs one x i would understand. but why go one s unless you really want a smaller form factor.
honestly... i like most high end androids. but its always the nexus for me. stock android is the best... in my opinion at least.
id still take my galaxy nexus over the galaxy s3 or the one x. heck.. i never got tempted to replace my nexus one until the nexus s came out. but i finally jumped when the galaxy nexus got released.
if you like sense.. go for the one x. if you like smaller phones then go for the one s. go get the galaxy s3 if you can wait for that. but look at it this way... would you want the next iteration of android the soonest? if you wanna get jelly bean this year then there is no other choice but the galaxy nexus.

Not being biased when I was mainly comparing it to my old sensation. Nexus aside. If I were going straight to tmobile for a phone I wouldn't see the advantage in getting the one s over the sensation. To me the sensation screen looks better feels better in your hand and the one s cones in silver/grey with panzy blue trim on it. It was snappy but not an improvement over previous HTC models. Just disappointed with the one series is all. Nothing but hype

No Gnex does not feel cheap it feel like a great device specially with the on screen nav buttons camera is not bad but ain't great and the One S I think it has a better camera overall specially woth moving shots(with tryig out with my 2 year old and pets ) . one s feels better after a while the unibody design and thin part makes it look good. I would be happy with etheir one but the best options for rooters is Galaxy nexus IMO for other might be the one s
Sent from my HTC VLE_U using Tapatalk 2

I would choose the GN over the One S. Tue ability to stay contract free appeals to me. Also, the bigger screen with better resolution is a no-brainer to me. The One S feels nice in hand and high quality. The GN is no slouch either. While it is plastic, it feels nice and has good heft. Just my .02.

Going to HTC one from S4

Hey everyone first off if I say anything stupid I apologize in advance.
So due to the Verizon sale on the HTC one I decided to leave the S4 behind for more then one reason.
First being that the build quality is piss poor at best, and second I can't get my AOSP fix.
My only questions are
1. Has anyone else gone from the s4 to the one? If so any regrets?
2. The most important question: is there any chance of me getting a HTC one that I can't flash Roms on. I.e. upgraded firmware etc..
If everything checks out I hope to joining this community soon!

Oh word. I myself much prefer the feel and shape. With a one there's a wow factor for how solid it feels. It really does feel great. The diff in screen size is hardly noticeable. While the one screen pops I do envy how the s4 looks like there's no depth. Speed is about the same. The camera on the one is better IMO but both have their strengths. Battery on the one is better over all. And the no physical buttons is a plus to me. Plus the volume and power buttons are hardly noticeable unless your using them. I suggest using santods tiktak ROM if you like aosp. Very smooth and stable. Still in beta too so means it'll just get bettet

Hope to see here you. The SG4 was a "fun" phone, I guess I'd describe it, but the HTC One is a real mans phone. No cheapy plastic, HTC Sense is great, I personally love it. I do miss the feeling of, oh hey I can just toss this phone around, with the HTC One, it's just too perfect, so for the first time since my first smart phone (HTC Eris) I put a very light, clear TPU case, which I absolutely LOVE. Don't have to worry about the metal getting dinged up on the sides, (it's a very soft metal, if you check out scratch videos on youtube, you can see on this one side the metal is VERY light and susceptible to scratches, I had no case for like the first 3 days, I went to pick up the phone and accidentally like push it forward (it was on a table) and it pushed into a lighter.. to my surprise I now have a small scratch from the tip of the metal lighter. That's when I went and found the case. I couldn't believe it scratched it, It was such a soft touch to the lighter.
I went without a case on the sg3/sg4 and both are still 9/10 condition.
