Google Nexus S with Android 2.3 (Gingerbread): UK release 20th December

06Dec10

 

Cat’s out the bag, Google Nexus S comes out in the UK 20th December

One sentence Summary: I’d rather have a Nexus One, the S isn’t much of an improvement.

A few thoughts:

Screen – Curved (convex?), interesting

Build quality – Not as nice as the Nexus One, simple as that.  Tacky Samsung plastic build

No Micro SD slot – Not my cup of tea, I can see why they’re doing it, simplicity.

1500mah battery – Nice

NFC – No one in the UK uses it and putting it in a phone won’t change that.  I had a debit card with it built in and didn’t use it once.  In fact, I got it replaced for a card without for security reasons (if someone stole my debit card they could swipe for purchases under £10 without a pin)
