You can tell the nexus S is a samsung phone because its made of cheap plastic. But to bad the specs arent the same as Galaxy s Phones.....huge bummer to those who bought one and dont even have Froyo yet.
Nope, not a bummer. Polly want a cracker?

Awesome a noob!
bL33d i love how you call me a new noob but i can guarentee ive had more android phones than you.
All im saying is to have bought a Fascinate and to have sooo many quirky problems....like GPS and the slow to get 2.2 Froyo. Its disapointing when a phone with such great hardware has to wait for a os update. And now gets KO'd by a dev phone which sets the standard for the next year as the first nexus did.
Makes you admire how Apple runs there business. You know what your getting with them. With Android is Awesome hardware with hit or miss with updates to the OS. Samsung has had a bad reputation with OS updates!!!

If the hardware is the same or very similar to that of the Fascinate and other SGS phones, wouldn't that mean that future updates would be easier to port? I'd think that would make the phone more desirable personally.

Ummm i said The nexus 2 was spotted....looking different in many ways to the galaxy S. The Nexus sets the standard for ANDROID phones....does it not? Its a shame because we dont even have 2.2 yet....
But I hope im wrong...

The i-9000 is different from the Vibrant, Captivate, Epic, and Fascinate, yet things that work on one were able to be ported to the others. Voodoo lagfix, BLN, Voodoo color and I'm sure there are others changes that have been ported. Having hardware that is very similar in how it works is a great start. If the next Nexus device is based on the SGS lineup, it should make it easier down the road for development.

Exactly! Was planning on switching to sprint in jan. This is just in time. Just what I wanted. I do not want a behemoth to carry arround. My nexus one with 3.7 screen is perfect size. All I missed was a slide out keyboard and front facing cam.
One other thing I like to consider though. Which will be more likely to have future OS versions ported? I dont bother on relying on sprint/samsung/htc for updates. I am asking about difficulty for devs. A big reason I was considering the epic is that the nexus s came out running the same platform, which made me think porting new OS releases would relatively easy. Is the shift likely to get new releases faster since it is an HTC product? I know it is impossible to know anything but what are your guy's thoughts on this right now?

Err, not sure if this is sarcasm, as beyond exaggeration it is false. You imply the shift has a slower CPU. Dont count mhz. The second gen snapdragon in the shift will certainly outperform the evo without question and with 45nm tech get better batt life to boot. I agree the Evo is not sluggish though. Which means the shift will be even better. Maybe you just need to ditch sense?
As for screen size that is not a downgrade. It is user preference. I like a nice compact device, not a brick.
Same thing with keyboard. I like getting real work done on my handset. KB is very effective.
If you already know this and were joking I apologize . If you were serious you should really rethink your position and recognize that different things suit different people (the CPU issue however is clear cut that the shift is superior).
Cheers!
Those of you who do decide to buy the Shift might be disappointed come June when the true successor to the Evolution drops.

Haha, classic definition of user error right here.
Honestly, if your EVO is that bad then you either have a bad device, or you've done something horribly wrong, in which case.. you shouldn't worry about owning a smartphone.. stick to the flips.
I have had my Epic since launch and I'm running the Clean GB rom and it's great. I really like the phone and have no problems with it. But, I know this phon will not last forever. I have to have a slide out keyboard because I have big fingers and typing on touch screen doesn't work very well. Plus I run my business for my phone so I have to type alot.
I just went to sprints site and I see they didn't kill the epic like was reported before. But, I don't see any new flagship sliders. Anyone know of any new flagship sliders on the way in the next 6 to 8 months? I'm open to all brands or os. Thanks
I'd like to know if anyone has information as well. I don't plan on buying any other phone for awhile, unless a new high-end sprint slider comes out. Which won't probably happen soon, since they're keeping the epic on the line cause they have nothing new coming, where with the EVO they had like 2 news ones already lol.

I like the Samsung Note, looks cool. Even if it is the size of a small country.
I want LTE, that's really the only requirement I have for a new phone. Bigger screen would be nicer, and I'd like a platform that's easily rooted. When I bought my Epic and Moment, I didn't really pay attention to that but now I think it'll be what I look at first. No point in having an uber cool phone if I'm stuck stock.
But I lubs my epic....I won't be leaving it soon.
Im am also hoping for a Sprint version of the Note, or anything with a similar sized display. I know some dont like the screen size, but I would love it! I would probably be willing to go up to 6 inches for an Android phone and happily still fit it in my pocket.

honestly the lte galaxy has peeked my interest, I had figured I'd wait for SG3 but once I saw that announcement I was like ... hmmmmmm my one real dislike on my phone is the speed of the internet (or lack there of) so the LTE is a huge pull for me.
I really like having the keyboard but with the larger screen the virtual kb should be much easier to use and I already use swype more than the hardware keyboard anyway.

What announcement are you referring to? Is the SGS3 going to be a non LTE phone?
I have an upgrade in July(Got the epic the week it came out). I'm looking at the Nexus, but I feel like I should hold off for a little.
I don't know yet, I have grown to not depend on the KB as much as I use to, so maybe the Nexus.
Thinking about going for the Nexus as my next phone.. but then again I may just wait a bit to see what great LTE phones come out.
I'm also interested in the nexus because it is so open. Specs aren't that hot but unless your a gamer the gpu isn't a huge deal. Should get full cm9 and miui support pretty fast as opposed to waiting many months.
Sgs3 will likely be next gen hardware, but waiting for updates, and the seeming lack of organization and inability to fix issues (key skip, gps anyone?) Makes non nexus hardware a tough sell.
If a top tier phone focused on battery life (ala razor maxx) launched on sprint, that would also be very tempting. But would have to have an unencrypted boot loader.

Given how Samsung has treated the Galaxy S line with updates, I'm not so forgiving. I think I am going with the galaxy nexus when it comes out. That way I can get instant updates.
Thinking about getting the galaxy nexus when it comes to sprint. However I am perfectly happy with my epic on virgin mobile for the time being.

I find the hardware to be quite good (although by the standards of today, I wouldn't mind a faster processor), but I find the software to be buggy and incomplete at best (EVEN EL30), which is sad considering how many chances that they had to make this a good device. Stuff like the GPS and other assorted issues makes me really shake my head in disappointment with Samsung.
Ive been saying that since I bought it.
Everywhere I go people still compliment and ask what phone is that. I don't know how much longer I will have this phone but I'm also not countig the days down unlike when I had my POS moment.
Just the fact that this phone was released q3 of 2010 and is not EOL yet despite the Epic touch release says a lot.

Considering it was supposed to be a Bada device, I think the devs had to get to the Android party late. I'd expect that translating the software to the hardware was the original issue but it seems to be more under control and may have lead to extended life for the device.
It was much faster than the evo. I loved my Epic. Perhaps the lack of froyo and gb is what made the Epic so much fun. Literally the only thing I would've changed is the responsiveness of the captivate buttons.

So, here we all are. Looking for the next big slider phone to move to. The Photon comes along and while some specs are great, overall most people hate the fact that the SIM is locked and that the battery is not removable. Some of us, maybe all, would probably settle for it, because the idea is that another slider will not come for a long period of time. HOWEVER, I just unearthed this article and honestly, I would recommend giving it a month before we all jump ship and buy into the Photon, if that is your plan at least.
http://www.gottabemobile.com/2012/05/01/google-patent-application-hints-at-nexus-slider/
Although this is NOT a confirmation, it is still in the realm of possibility. It is worth waiting for, before we lock ourselves onto the Photon for 2 years.
Any thoughts/comments/info?
There is some truth to Google bringing out a Nexus slider soon. Google hired the G1 designer duo, they also came up with the design for the Xbox360.
NICE!!!!!! I just sprouted a tremendous woody!!!!
Highly doubtful. I wouldn't hold my breathe. The only logical choice right now for keyboard lovers is the photon. Especially since Motorola released something similar to HTCdev to unlock the boot loader.

this is exactly why I am hesitant to buy the Q... but there truly is NO evidence of a slider nexus coming, and it could be a loooonng wait for another qwerty on Sprint considering we are getting 3 of them
I guess I am use to by now having a on screen keyboard.
I do miss the trackball of the G1 that was always nice to have.

My thinking on the Q, is will there be development, more to the point, will it get picked up by CM
A Nexus device will get dev support almost by default.
But the Epic taught me to be careful about my choice in phones, as lack of great development can drop a phone from awesome, to dam, wish I could get that mod.
Those who got the Epic on release day, waited for CM acceptance on the Epic, will understand why I'm a bit gun shy about one-off devices

Just read on galaxys2arsemonkey.com that a Samsung insider claims that there will not be an Android 1.6 release for the Galaxy S2.
Although this hasn't definitely been ruled out by Samsung, it's expected that there will be cries of derision from some S2 owners who want the Donut release to improve battery life, touch screen sensitivity and the disabling of the front camera when accessing Xhamster in case the phone starts taking photographs during inopportune times.
Others claim that Samsung are deliberately not releasing the aging OS version just to deliberately annoy the development scene when one of their ilk complained on a website that 0.0001% of their customer base read and thus causing a PR "**** storm" leading to posts of "**** Samsung".
Anyhoo, if anyone wants to repeat this post a few times in this forum, repeating this same bull**** information, please feel free. It's not like this hasn't been going on all day here.....

Would be cool to see samsung indeed put 1.6 to our s2 as a PR-stunt
(they got enough old code in the 4.0/4.1 release to make it happen)

So, let them. This will at least make it a bit funny, rather than just plain annoying...

LOL... 1.6 on S2!
See what I made in PhotoShop. If the S2 actually would get Android 1.6, it would look like this:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}

It's a joke. Just a counter post to all the "Samsung will release x.x.x" threads that have been cluttering the forum.
Saying that, 1.6 looks quit good!

If you really have to explain this then it's too late and humanity is doomed..
The photos are much better in 1.6.
Im trying 1.6 and also the battery is better. Maybe because of less background services?
I only miss one thing, the new weather widget.
