Might as well ask now..Will you sell your Nexus One for a Nexus S? - Nexus One General

I know I know...I CANT be the only one debating it. But now that its officially out, I must admit that despite how much I HATE the Samsung Galaxy phones, this one looks pretty tight. Hardware wise I know Samsung are great. But I have 2 friends with Galaxy phones who DESPISE them and have even offered to trade them for a Nexus One straight up.
I know dual core phones will be out very soon, but what Im actually only interested in owning Googles "baby" when it comes to support and updates.
So here it is....
Are you going to sell your Nexus One for a Nexus S?
I LOVE my Nexus One..LOVE IT...Im a bit stuck on this one.
Thoughts?

No, I found it too difficult to get a decent price for my Nexus

IF there is an AT&T version then I will get one. My Nexus One has a broken screen and I'm in desperate need of a new phone.

Nope. While it has some advantages over the N1, they are not major enough for me to change. With dual core around the corner, I think I'll pass on the S and wait it out till Q1.

Yep. Only if I can get 3G on AT&T.

I put mine up for sale, and just took it down. I'm gonna wait for something better. When N1 was released, desire came out. I'm gonna hope that when Nexus S comes out, HTC will release something the same, but hopefully more features like an SD slot. Besides... Phone isn't even a year old yet!

Most I could get responses for on Craigslist was a measly $350...
Do I really want to take a $225 loss ($575 original N1 price / tax minus $350 Craigslist sale price) just so that I could upgrade to a SuperAmoled screen and front facing camera? Nope

Im staying with the nexus one...the screen res. is higher on the nexus one then nexus s

My Nexus one has been great for me but I just love shiny new tech toys and the Nexus S kinda looks bad ass and ninja stealthy in all black so yes I'm going to get it (though spec wise it's nothing to shout about). Will still keep my nexus one though for hacking with android.

I'm getting one.

It is not looking good, is is crippled from stock Galaxy S:
- No MicroSD slot, only 16GB onboard
- No 720p video recording (!?!?! will this come in Honeycomb or something)
- Bluetooth 2.1 instead of 3.0
- 1mm thicker than Galaxy S
Things it has that Galaxy S doesn't have
- Gingerbread (Galaxy will get 2.3 soon hopefully that a similar phone has it)
- LED Flash (Couldn't care less)
- NFC (By the time this is mainstream i will probably be through to a new phone anyway)
So looks like Galaxy S is a better buy

You're aware Samsung makes the Nexus S, right?

I plan to sell my Nexus One. Its in great condition T-Mobile model with 16GB SD card. If anyone is interested let me know .

I'm going to pass. I'm happy with my AT&T/Rogers Nexus One. I hear it's quite rare now!
The plastic Nexus S is a dealbreaker. The thing looks too plastic-y for my tastes. It's all about teflon / brushed metal!

I'm passing too! I <3 my N1. The new S isn't standing out at all for me. Sure, 2.3 stock but ill get 2.3 once Cyanogen (my fav mod) releases their version in a month or so. I also love how i can upgrade to up to 32gb sd card which is awesome.

He** NO, after samsung lied about the updates to the Behold II they will never have me as a customer again, Nexus One forever! or at least till there is a Dual Core HTC.

dual core phones coming in future with the tegra 2 and the orion chips, not to mention a possibly newer google phone with honeycomb which might also have dual core.
LG and Samsung are also developing new screens which they will implement in the near future and not to mention there isnt too much that the nexus offers. Most people will only buy it cos it comes with vanilla android and will get faster updates. It also lacks 4g which i suspect will become norm for phones in 2011 with more networks using it.
Was hoping for a higher res camera and screen and by the looks of it this phone also misses out on features already available on many other phones like Wifi direct, DLNA, HDMI, MicroSD slot Bluetooth 3.0 etc. The NFC is basically future proofing your phone as not many things currently support it, its like having a 3D TV with hardly any 3D content. Much better off waiting for the next flagship phone from Samsung and since the Nexus is a rebranded galaxy s then we porting over the new updates the Nexus recieves wont take too long i think

Nope. I have a G2 and an N1.... love the N1 too much plus the Nexus S doesn't even have HSPA+ on it....

No, I'm selling my Vibrant that I got for free.
I keeping my Nexus.

Depends. If Samsung releases a car dock and desktop dock similar to the N1's, then I'll consider selling my N1. Otherwise, I'll keep the N1 for roadtrip use and use it as a bedside tablet and alarm clock.

Replacing nexus one

Hi all,
Just a quick question, I'm from Singapore and I'm thinking of replacing my nexus one with another phone...
Should I wait for a dual core phone like LG star or just get a galaxy tab now, since nexus s is such a let down...
Any kind advice?
Well the Galaxy Tab isn't a phone; for most people I think that it would fill a different role in their digital lifestyle than their phone does. I'm also considering getting a Galaxy Tab because I would like a medium sized tablet(stream being considered small and 10 inchers being large).
I think if you are OK with your Nexus One then wait for a dual core like the LG or upcoming Motorola. I personally think there are no other phones currently on the market that will feel new and amazing coming from a Nexus One.
Personally I'm getting a G2.
Reasons:
1.Superior hardware
2.I'm an HTC fanboy
3.Here in Atlanta GA you can find them for about $325 next to new on craigslist.
4.I can sell my N1 for roughly $325 or more so there is no out of pocket
expense for me.

Yup... that's what I'm planning too(stay on with my nexus one). The Thing is whether will LG or Motorola launch the dual core phones in Singapore. Motorola still haven't launch the Droid 2 in Singapore yet...

If I wait a bit longer it will be cheaper to buy a new one that replace the cracked screen on this one (cries loudly at clumsiness)
Well, it looks like a new phone is coming soon. If I was a betting man, i'd say mid summer they'll roll out a new nexus phone. How fitting that they would quietly slide into Apples coveted summer release cycle.
I bought my Nexus S earlier this month, so I can feel the pain of anyone that watches technology grow old over night, but hey, it's not like your phone doesn't work as well today as it did yesterday, just because a faster version shows up.
A faster version is always right around the corner. If you keep waiting for the fastest one you'll be waiting a long time.
Hmm decisions decisions
jump to the new i9100 or wait for the new nexus which is probably going to be the i9100 in a different skin bit like the difference between the galaxy s 1 and the nexus s
In summer there will be a nexus tablet, not phone
Wonder if any Nexus S users could give me a little advice...
I currently have an original HTC Desire, and the usual problems are really irritating me. Currently, (as I buy sim-free), I could sell my Desire for £150, and buy a new Nexus S for £218. That means an upgrade cost of £168. As I see it...
+ Hugely better internal memory
+ Better battery
+ Better graphics chip
+ 2.3 official software (but then I'm running CM7 on my Desire so irrelevant)
+ Front facing camera
+ Wifi N
+ Good selection of custom ROMs, but not as good as Desire IMO
- Less ram
- No physical buttons
- Silly button order (minimal I know, but frustrating)
- Not really an improved camera (stills)
- No 720p video recording
- Does it have a notification light?
(Did I miss anything? )
My dilemma:
+ / - not so much a nexus s issue, but is it really worth spending all that for a phone already going out of date in the dual core age? After all, a Galaxy S2 could be had for £80 more (£400). It's a lot of money still, but not in context. The changes aren't huge with the nexus s. Surely I would be better waiting for the dual cores to go down, then buy one of them?
Today,
A new Nexus S costs £318 sim free unlocked.
A new LG Optimus 2X (dual core tegra) costs £329 sim free unlocked (but I don't think I like it)
A new Samsung Galaxy S locked to O2 costs £400.
If I wasn't going dual core, I would go Nexus S. I love it. But I'm not sure it's wise now (going single core), as £168 is a lot of money for the minimal features of a Nexus S compared to the advantages of a SGS2. Problem is, I don't have £250 for that. I could afford a nexus s, but I'm not convinced it would be a wise purchase with these new devices out? Do you not think it is worth saving for a few more months, and getting a SGS2 or HTC Sensation instead?
Convince me?

just my opinion, the nexus s is not worth the upgrade
better off just getting a g2x or a sgs2 at this point, if you can wait a few months maybe see what the new nexus will offer

Torn between this and the Nexus!

I know I can't be the only one out there. I'm just really unsure about the Note's size... I'm a tall guy, with big hands, but its just seems that bit too big?
Mind you, I've been using my Tab 7.0 as a phone for a good 3 weeks!
Is it really usable with one hand? By that I mean, can I fire off a quick text with one hand? If its a yes, I'll order it now!
Thanks for anything useful you have to say!
I'm in the same situation like you!
I'm currently with AT&T at the moment, wondering if I should sell my iPhone 4S (only reason I got it was because of its high resale value) to buy a Note to use, or wait until the Nexus comes to Verizon and sell my iPhone and use that money for the Nexus.
I really like the size of the Note and would love to use it during school, but I kind of want to see how the Nexus looks in real life first before making my decision.
I would also rather be on Verizon's network to be honest, with it's double data promotion helping its case even more.
Im thinking I may just go for the nexus now, I've not had a pure android yet (from stock) and it looks fluid as anything! IMO Touchwiz slows down Android (I own both the Tab and original Galaxy S).
Still can't seem to click buy on either though!
Let me just say that I had the same concerns, so much so that I was determined to wait until I played with the Note before ordering it. I went ahead and took the chance and I am VERY pleased. The phone does not feel nearly as big as you might thing. I think it is very comfortable to use, fits in all my pockets, and is an absolute pleasure to have. I guarantee you will not regret buying the Note. Just read the other reviews.

I'm not worried about pockets, my 7.0 tab fits in my pockets! I just thought.... If I buy this I can sell my Tab and put that towards this, as it'll replace it anyway!
I'll sell my tab on eBay me thinks!
EDIT: Tab in the marketplace, once thats sold, I will be buying note. Just found out that Nexus uses a poor GPU. I know its twice the speed of Galaxy S, but I'd rather have samsungs latest chip!
I just ordered a white Note from eBay. The way I look at it, an Aosp ICS rom will come eventually. Then you have the option be it Aosp, MIUI, or Touchwiz. And if one doesn't come fast enough, use the Note then sell it when the Nexus is available to you. I have an HTC right now and I switch between Aosp and Sense and its nice to have the choice.

Here are a couple of Nexus deal breakers for me.
Only 16GB of storage, on my 16GB Note only 11GB is usable, the rest are reserved for OS and apps. This limit my music files to 128 kbps and with 1GB of storage left. Also the 32GB Nexus is not available yet, and I'm not sure I want to pay premium price for a 16GB upgrade when 32GB micro sd card are around £40.
The 16:9 screen makes the phone easier to hold but awkward when browsing the web in portrait mode.
Also the processor and graphic chip are weaker than the Note, so not the best phone out there for future proof.
The only selling point of Nexus compared to the Note is ICS, which will be on the Note either from Samsung or developers. After almost two weeks of using the Note, I found the performance very smooth, so not in a hurry to upgrade to ICS.
Unless you really want an ICS device, I'd get the Note. I'm sure you will happier with the Note few months down the line when both devices have ICS.
P.S. Typing with one hand is awkward at best, and you are risking drop the phone while doing it.

You couldn't have summed it up any better! I'll probably order of Amazon.de tomorrow morn.
Portability
This device is more portable than a tab.
Think of it not as a phone, or a tab, but an XDA(convergent digital assistant)
I would not even consider a tab (or a laptop).
I have a workstation, and an XDA.
Have so for nearly 10 years.
The note is particularly portable and useful.

You are welcome, Amazon.de normally ship the phone out the next working day and it will take two more days for delivery via CityLink.
Also CityLink web tracking might tell you the phone will arrive the next working day after Amazon has shipped the Note. Don't belive them and don't panic when the tracking don't get updated for the 1st 24hrs.

I'm in the same boat as you. I've been mulling over this decision for about 2 weeks at least
Here's my pros and cons, and these are too me, a US AT&T user still in contract:
Note Pros:
- Screen
- CPU
- Battery
- Staying with AT&T
Cons:
- Importing and Warranty
- No ICS yet. This is big as it looks like exchange support is greatly improved there, and I'd like to ditch Touchdown
I don't consider the stylus much of a pro personally - I don't think I'll use it
Nexus Pros:
- Vanilla ICS
- NFC
- LTE sim swap with my Xoom (this is kinda minor, as WiFi hotspot is basically the same except that I can conserve my phone's battery if I were to go on a road trip)
- Better dev and app support because it will be more popular
Nexus Cons:
- very worried about battery life with LTE. I'd hope to go data only too, so I'd have GooVe IP signed in all the time.
- smaller screen, though it might be OK as I've had a Dell Streak and so many apps don't deal with gigantic screens very well.
- maybe slightly worse camera from my investigations
I probably should just buy the Note and be done with it, but I want to see what Verizon's off contract price is. if it's $600 that's hard to then justify getting a Note for around $750 I think. $650-700 will be a note autobuy I think... then again my ETF would be around $150, but going data only will save in the long run, but not sure if I can reliably recieve calls on GrooVe IP... meh... decisions.
There IS a simple solution........... JUST GET BOTH !!!
It is what I am doing....... can't help myself
Nothing touches Galaxy Note on the market IMO. Engadget just did a hands-on test of the Galaxy Nexus and here's something they mention in their article:
It's still too early to comment on battery life, but so far we're not seeing any issues. While the Nexus feels quite snappy it isn't as mind bendingly fast as some Gingerbread devices (the Galaxy Note comes to mind)

The Note is a superior platform--bigger display, S-pen functionality, faster CPU, faster GPU. Why would anyone outside a developer want a Nexus? ICS is coming to our phone so there's no advantage there. People argue Touchwiz adds a layer of lag and I disagree, my phone with 2.3.6 gingerbread is lightning fast and I never see any lag.
where can I get the 2.3.6 version? I tried to update my phone but it said my phone was all updated.

Agree with everything you said. I've been doing my research on both since I had been going back and forth on what phone I really wanted and even went with just the AT&T GS2 for a few days but in the end both the GS2 and Nexus both are inferior devices to what the Note offers and outside of getting ICS early I can't see any reason to buy the Nexus unless you just need a smaller phone. I'd rather wait and get ICS shortly down the road than to get it a few weeks earlier on lesser hardware.

[Q] An alternative to the Nexus 4

So I'm planning on getting a new phone soon, and the price of the Nexus 4 is already pushing it. I was on kogan and I came across a HTC One X for $399.
Same screen size, same resolution, more space. It doesn't have the S4 Quadcore though, it's tegra 3.
Is there something I'm missing? Or should I maybe go for this? I don't know how long I'd have to wait for the Nexus 4 to come back in stock and my current phone (Nokia N8) is dying..
(I'm aware the One X is currently sold out, but I'm fairly sure it'll come back in stock soon)
? people are reporting that they've been buying N4 just a couple days ago and received it already even though it says it will be shipped in 6-7 weeks. you can check this in the other shipping threads in general

You should put the Galaxy S3 (international) in your consider list. There are a few things going for it compared to the N4, including: microSD, USB OTG, MHL, Wolfson DAC (audio quality), and base on what I've seen so far: better front and rear camera and better speaker. With that said I've been reading many people having the S3 died instantly on them for no reason.

I was considering a GS3, but it's $200 more than the N4 and $400 is already too much for me, haha.
I want a high end phone with a big screen though, and I've completely filled my current 16GB phone so the 32GB One X seemed good.

There's always custom roms isn't there? And how is it outdated? Quad Core tegra 3 is above anything else at this price range, right? (Besides N4 of course)
Coming from a one x they are a great phone, good dev support etc. I just got bored of HTC sense it got bloated and horrible for me. If you don't want to wait for a N4 a one x is a good option

Couldn't I flash it with a vanilla ICS though? I don't really want all that sense bull****.
Of course but IMHO HTC devices rely heavily on Sense.
Camera performance will suck on AOSP.
I say get the Galaxy Nexus & save yourself the trouble.

Eh, I'd rather the quad core and more space..
There's no way to have decent camera quality without sense?
I don't use the camera that much, but it's still nice to have..
Sense is ok and the camera app is amazing. Great outdoor viewing especially when using camera. You can actually see what you're shooting I've been using since April and have bought and sold a number of new releases but the sim always goes back in the one x for some reason.
First phone I haven't rooted or played with since jailbreaking iPhone 3g.

I'm curious. Why'd you "jump ship" to One? Reason I'm asking is my wife's second digitizer (replaced ~1 month ago) is going out and upgrade is due 1 APR. If the One is delayed TOO much, we may have to get a different phone, and the S3 is a candidate. Thx
I want to sell my sg3 keeping my hox, still on fire... I m in Argentina but cant find buyers.. Thats bad:banghead:

Congratulations
I have just got a HTC one to replace my S3.
The ui is far more basic (or close to stock if you prefer) but the speed is awesome and I think I prefer the more natural screen colours. The definition is amazing.
Overall I am more than pleased. Only 2 days in but I have to say that this is my best ever phone. Only thing slightly lacking is it couldn't wait for the 64gb version and I have a LOT of music but I think I will cope with the 32gb version)
The very best feature in NO LAG! I have been waiting for that so long! Even faster than the Nexus 4. In fact this is the phone the nexus 4 should have been.
There have been iPhone muggers before but this Is the iPhone killer!
Android ftw!
I did the same wanting clove send me.

I'm dumping my Sprint Galaxy S 3 as soon as I can get my hands on this phone. Every review I've seen so far says it's the best phone they've ever rated. Period. Looking forward to a quad core processor.
The GS 3 is OK. The GS 4 looks like more of the same with a quad core. Touch Wiz sucks. Running other launchers has really screwed up my voicemail. Rooting is a bit out of my league.
Sprint still doesn't have 4G in NE Ohio. Sprint 3G is SLOW. Any suggestions for the best network speed from a major U.S. carrier ?
NE Ohio here as well, Youngstown area.
I personally love my gs3, just like new technology and stepdaughters windows phone needs replaced, so she is getting the HTC Amaze and wife will rock the S3.
As far as provider, I like T-Mobile in big cities, but the Bonies it gets rough. I get 20mb down and 3 up on their HSPA +.
Verizon is the best for overall. But they are more expensive than anyone else, but great coverage and great speeds.
If not those two, then would make at&suck next in line.
Sprint is God awful round here.

If rooted I'm sure there will be ways to force roam on Verizon.
@OP If the quality of the camera is the only thing your concerned with, I really wouldn't worry. HTC nailed with the evo lte camera and by all accounts the ONEs camera is better again

as mentioned sold the SGS3, ordered the Black, changed my mind ordered two Silver Ones......hopefully one of them will be a keeper.
Current interim solution - HTC Hero.......
I'm due a free upgrade, so am keeping my 16GB S3, purchasing a 64gb SDcard and using the S3 purely as an mp3 player. The Wolfson dac is more than excellent.
Will then keep the storage on the One free of music and ensure the 32GB version is more than sufficient for apps and videos/photo.

That's nothing, I'm using my girlfriends old lumia 610 and of course it's a pink one.. ~4 weeks to get ONE :crying:
Having spent time with both, the S3 has more features but I mean when really uses them? The One is a more clean and simple phone with a premium feel. For me personally its hit the sweet spot
another sammy user here, moving from galaxy note to htc one! hell yeah.. i tried the device during a preview here and was absolutely blown away!! gonna be amazing!
Same. Waiting for black 64gb to replace my s3
Now if we all fall in love with HTC and sense and don't go back to Samsung in the near future, I can say that this is their fault for not developing a new design from sg3
Got so disappointed when I saw the unboxing and don't intend to buy a Samsung again.
Since I expect their sales to decrease a lot compared to sg3, they might come with a awesome phone next year. But by then it might be too late cuz everybody who tests sense after been using touchwiz, won't turn back again.
