Google Nexus One

Fastest Android phone yet. Beautiful hardware. Super-bright screen.

No phone or in-person support. Confusing pricing and service options. No voice dialing or transcription over Bluetooth.

The Google Nexus One is the most powerful Android smartphone yet, but its software and sales strategy are geared strictly to self-supporting geeks.

Android 2.1, OLED screen, 1GHz CPU

Early adopters experiencing some teething issues

Google Android 2.1 represents a step forward for Google's already impressive operating system, and the Google Nexus One seems like the ideal handset to show off the new OS's skills. But early adopters have reported teething troubles, so it may be worth...

Outstanding design. Responsive AMOLED touchscreen. Speech-to-text integration throughout. 4GB memory card in the box.

Disappointing battery life. Apps still install to internal memory rather than expanded memory.

Google's Nexus One may not be the iPhone killer, but it offers a comparable alternative to Apple's smartphone, with excellent performance and a suite of innovative and useful applications.

Great design, build quality, excellent display, fast, removable battery, Android 2.1 feels polished, updated home screen

No advanced audio/multimedia options, touch keys not always responsive, screen hard to see in sunlight

The Nexus One smartphone isn't as revolutionary as Google might have you believe, but it remains an excellent smartphone regardless. The Android platform is only going to get better and the Nexus One's excellent display and sleek hardware are a winning...

android phone, nice apps speed, good processor

Typing is not easy with the fingers(male) I often mistype by sending SMS or mail Can't find the opportunity to enlarge the text. Sometimes, it's to little to read When you want to use your phone the whole day, battery is quick empty, you need to load...

Great phone, easy to set up, easy to use, easy to download apps. Battery life depends on how much you use it. Love the wifi!

The may be 5 mega pixels but clarity is not the best.

Great interface, great speed, great apps. No complaints at all.

Expensive and many of the data plans that go with it are more expensive than the phone.

Google integration. Speed of the phone and response is amazing.

Can't think of any.

The best smart phone in the market.

No bas points. I'm also a user of I-phone and the Nexus outgun it.

Brilliant screen, fast internet connection, if you're a gmail user all your contacts and emails are waiting for you from the start! Apps for Android are plentiful (who needs 100k?). Good ergonomic design. Same dimensions as the iPhone so fits the same...

As expected, the screen eats up the power. With constant use, the unit needs charging every couple of days. Expensive if you buy it outright (ie PAYG).
