I got my Nexus One, and while I expected it to be good.. I did not expect this much! Literally the best phone I have ever had in my 14 year old life (After previously having G1s, MyTouch's, etc.) It feels so smooth, its so fluid.. I love everything about it! Google, I wuv you guys..
Now, as I've said before, a better phone better not come out by Xmas.. don't wanna sell this thing so soon ^.~
Wait, you're 14? How did you afford this phone?

My 14-year old had one for a day. She couldn't do without a physical keyboard so we're waiting until an android handset comes out with one. She loved everything else and, despite the lack of a keyboard, my Nexus One is the best phone I've ever had. I come from Windows Mobile.

It takes a while to get used to the on-screen keyboard. I know from experience, I came from a G1.
After a few months, I still can't type as fast as I did with the G1 keyboard, but it beats having to turn the phone sideways and flip out the keyboard just to type a few letters in some app. The convenience of the big screen and using the on-screen portrait keyboard without having to turn the phone sideways outweigh the gained typing speed on my G1.
your lucky dude..14 years old with a nexus...anyway I love this phone..coming from a touch pro 2..I don't miss that phone one bit..not even the keyboard..well maybe a little lol but still this phone is great and so is swype.
Speaking of typing on a virtual keyboard...have you seen the video of a guy typing 83 wpm on a virtual keyboard? Albeit, it's not a N1...impressive non-the-less.
wow when i was 14year i didn't even have a dumb phone lol, congratz on your nexus one hope you enjoy it
My nexus one surprises me every day. It is definitely the phone I've been waiting for.

I'm 16 and I afforded it because of money I earned selling 3D designs and birthday money (hehe) but ITS ALL MINE. So if I break it, I know what it feels like to lose $530.
Saw this 15 year old drop his iPhone in my class, screen shattered, and he told everyone, its alright, parents will buy me a new one. Can't always depend on them, you know what I mean?

My opinion;
Despite all the other HTC Android phones coming the Nexus One will remain on top. The reason why I think this is because having a phone directly from Google itself means you'll get updates before anybody, and popularity from any other 'Droid phone won't beat out a Android phone from Google itself.
So to everyone who has a Nexus One or those people who are scared too get one because another one might make it look obsolete..DON'T WORRY. The Nexus One will remain on top due to the fact that it's from Google itself.
Just my two cents..
I agree with you on that. I just made the leap from the TP2 after running Android on it for a couple of days. I love it. Its awesome.

LOL, I did the same thing. My TP2 is now collecting dust.
So what you're saying is that because this phone is being so heavily backed by Google it will have a very long lifespan?
I think I can agree with that
I came from the CLIQ and man is this phone a speeeeeed demon!
well so far there is very little (to none) support from google......and Nexus One is the worst cell phone experience i have ever had.
The phone is good, the hardware is good, the OS is ok.......It just feels like everything is in beta or made from cheapo parts.

Well, you know, you should lay off from Google a little. This is there first directly sold phone, and they weren't exactly prepared for all the whining and problems people were going to have. I don't know how they didn't expect for nearly everyone to complain, but apparently they weren't exactly ready to join the phone competition. They haven't had to deal with any problems till now because they have been selling their Android powered phones through carriers..
I honestly don't understand how this phone could have so many aggravations for people though.. like the above poster said, you should also be more specific.
The good thing is that if the 3g connection is good, htc/moterola/exc can't put the blame on Google, Google has to accept the blame, thus forcing them to fix it snappy (hopefully like we've seen with the radio haha)!
coming from touch pro 2 the N1 is amazing
gotta be honest i miss the keyboard but its alright
just the fact that the phone has a 1ghz processor tells me that they are palnning to keep it for a while. ive had an iphone 3g too and so far i still like the n1 the best ...
just one problem so far - the youtube player is stupid and slow... =[
other than that 5 stars

Are people still getting dust under the screen...or has that been fixed.I'm debating if I should get the N1.I had the G1 and loved all the mods you could do to it and the N1 has twice the specs so it's a powerhouse and the only phone out there close to those specs is the HD2.Man I just can't decide, maybe I should wait till all the kinks are worked out.

I don't know if there is a limit. But if there is, then there's even LESS reason to send it in right away, like so many people are doing, and then getting phones with the dust issue once again. Get the phone, enjoy, send it back at 11 months.

Ill be honest, apple whored me out too.
And I know exactly where your coming from wanting Droid.
But just keep hoping and praying we'll soon have droid thanks to a dev here at XDA.
I miss the apple appstore, but thinking about it... I spent allot of money (well not really, jailbraking = free apps but shht) And how many of them apps did I use on a day to day basis?
1, maybe 2 out of a good 30 i had...
I use the apps on my HTC everyday.
So looking at the bigger picture, you dont need the app store
Droid though, I NEED!
This thread is a bit of a waste really but i just thought i would share my opinion !
well my sister came around yesterday and started flashing her new ipony4 about, so i grabbed it and had a play and at first glance I liked it over the old 3gs, the screen res for a smaller screen than my hd2 was impressive but then my sister start telling them all the problems she is having with it in the last 2 weeks oh how i laughed !!! ha ha
but getting back to me playign about with it it wasnt even 5mins later i was borrrrrred to death with it !!!!!!
I cannot work out for the life of me what the big fashionation is with the iphone! I think its like marmite, you either love it or hate it and I Hate it!!!!
Same with me.
Work colleague got it recently and must admit screen does look impressive, much better clarity than older models.....but that is basically it, there are no other new features that impressed me despite how much she tried to show it off
ha - also they are paying £50/month plus £15/month insurance 18m contract............and they also had to pay money towards handset...........I am not kidding! oh yeah, and she had to buy a case for it in order to use it for its most basic of functions, calling people.
They said to me, "Aren't you tempted by it?"
"Lol I pay half that for a phone I got 8 months ago which is still better in every way"
Its all down to how they have had it advertised, as with all Apple products.
There not mind blowing, just cleverly advetised.
I don't think I'd ever want to go back to a smaller sized screen. The new iPhone may have a better resolution or clearer screen or whatever, but it's still small.
I know what you all mean - once I've had my leo, I cant seem to like anything else. Besides, the HD2 has come a loonng way since it came out. With the amazing job that people here at XDA are doing, I'm now thinking this phone is 100 times better! I've just flashed my latest ROM after not having an HD2 for a few weeks and everything is so smooth like butter! If I compare my phone now with a stock HD2 it will look like I'm using different phones, it's amazing!

Like said earlier its all advertising hype. They did a fantastic job selling the "basic" 3GS model & then totally screwed up by trying to step it up a notch.
I think the way iphone's been sold is by having people convinced (without actually saying so) that apple are actually pioneers in the big/touch screens.

Depending on the rom you use, some of the sense roms that are sense 2.0 based have a phone finder built in. Blackberry isn't bad, it's a business phone. It's not made to be flashy, it's just made to work. I don't like it since it doesn't fit my wants in a smartphone, but hey it does what it's made to do.

Yeah have found one that says it can remotely enable GPS and one stating that if off it can use network location. Guess I wasn't looking hard enough. That or it has been so long thought it wasn't likely. Damn, posts like these always get me thinking about having my phone stolen. Bummer.

I can relate. I have a curve that work gave me. A lot of my friends have BBM, so I end up typing on that and I HATE it. i don't bother correcting typos b/c there are way to many with my fingers hitting like 50 keys at once. Good to know about the new alarm thing. That was bugging me too.

Throw a hybrid OS on it. Just download any BB OS, then go to C:/Program Files/Common Files/Research in Motion (RIM)...then extract the folder named "Java" and play around with the .cod modules.
I built hybrid OS's for years before I found Android.

Interesting...I may try that. Though I am only on this till I get me evo, and this is technically my sister's phone, so I may not, out of respect.
Sucks you got your evo stolen I returned my evo I got from sprint by using my upgrade the other day, waiting for the one I bought from Ebay now But in the meantime I am using a Blackberry curve, I hate this thing! For one its boring, the keypad is tiny, no angry birds, lol. I tried to make my wife take it, that only lasted on day though, lol. She calls it a blueberry and has been walking around the house saying "no evo no evo", now my kids have joined her! grrrrrr Hurry up mailman! I feel your pain
I have a 13 year old daughter, I offered to buy her the shift for an upgrade, she said shes just fine with her BB curve

[OFFTOPIC] SGS2 is a total disappointment... "Important" functions NOT working...
I read about all the features of the phone, it all got me very excited but some things are not working...
First of all, it doesn't bring me beer when I use vlingo and say " get me beer"
Second of all, Crysis 2 is not running at all. Phone's not that fast..
Last point: I put my phone into airplane mode, threw it in the air.....
Worst transformer ever.....
The rest is working pretty damn fine, so its maybe not a total failure. What are you disappointed about?
First I was like "Hahaha.. NOT" but after a few seconds I started laughing at your post xD
I have not been blessed with a GS2 yet, still waiting. The only thing I could be disappointed about is: build quality/how it actually feels in (my) hands. Further the TouchWiz and Battery life are two things I am semi-worried, but you know TW can be replaced by custom launcher or ROM and Battery life should be decent with tweaks.

Build is better than it looks, but the same goes for the sgs1. Dropped mine once and nothing to see, wiped the grains off and no damage at all. For the sgs1 you could buy stronger backplates and the same will go for this phone, looking at its sales. Samsungs internal build quality is actually one of the best in the business so I wouldn't be to worried. Touchwiz 4 is quite nice. Huge improvement over tw3, still I ditched it within 2 days. Launcherpro all the way for me
It's so thin, i can barely see it, wait...
because the thing i am disappointed is, that we still not have it here in Germany.
We should get this Phone about the same time as UK, but forget it. We are still waiting for that. Most of the people are ordering the phone in UK or Austria because they have it already and not only that, they still get new charges.
I like this Forum and i would like to make some Tweaks on this phone too, but i don't even know when I can get it.
By biggest complain is that it doesn't do bj...
Oh well, maybe it's successor will do

I really dont understand the haters but haters gonna hate i suppose, its literally the BEST phone ive ever owned, no regrets at all about buying it which is a first!

i just hope some roms are available till then, or i definitely start making my own^.^

First and foremost, this phone is utter crap, it ate hundreds of my lovely British pounds before I could even pick it up.
I thought it looked amazing so I spread some cheese on it, but it didn't taste ANYWHERE near as good as it looked, now it turns out I need to feed it even MORE money before it will work again...
Seriously upset.

They ARE the best in the business. Look around, nothing comes even close. They manage to fit virtually everything in (more ram then anyone else, quality cpu, screen out of this world) light and this THIN -->

Other companies are feeling the pressure now. 4inc and over screens need lightness otherwise it just becomes a brick, but then they have to fit in all the top specs inside too and they don't have the tech yet to do that.
