id sooner go back to my original milestone before buying a samsung. im very disappointed with the choice of a rebranded sgs and samsung. the first nexus 1 is still better than this new, fake nexus
to my point of view is that the g2 is and will be the high end phone of tmobile for a long time, period. nexus s is not that OMG, plus the only really good thing is that comes with gingerbread... other than that... well... is a Samsung lol
Well the g3 will be better then the nexus s for sure! My point being that there will always be a better phone comming out soon. Get what you want! Me i love keyboards and the g2 is the best one out. Good luck.

People shouldn't worry about if or when gingerbread is coming out on the G2. We have a very strong dev. section and backing of the greatest coders period. If you don't believe me then look at the Mytouch4G developmental thread and you quickly take note that topics of the 1st page date back a week. The G2 is successor of the god father of android.
OP, do you want a keyboard, a T-Mobile protection plan, LED notifications, or 4G. Yes, the Nexus S has a 16gb storage capacity but that only tells me that google has finally fixed the problem of android only viewing 2gb of available internal memory. At least I hope so because if they didn't then there will be alot of Nexus S owners upset that their device only claims 1.2 gb of internal memory.
The only device I see ever knocking the G2's crown off is the G3.
it really seems like samsung is rebadging their galaxy s phone to every carrier... this one has gingerbread but it's only a short time until every other high end phone gets gingerbread too. Samsung is actually skipping 2.2 with this release though. good for them ~_~
EDIT: where the hell is all this g3 talk coming from? is this something I haven't seen yet or is it all hypothetical
P.s. op, the overclock on this phone is fcuking fantastic.

Hypothetical, just stating that the phone is really good and would probably only be succeeded by a G3.
I will keep this device until the g3 comes out for sure. This is a great device and samsung has a horrible build quality IMHO. The only thing Samsung has over the G2 is their 4" Super AMOLED screen. G2 has a respectable 3.7" Super TFT and is comparable, just smaller but not by much...

I'll admit, I got a little excited when I saw the new Nexus was coming out...then I saw it was S and not 2...and that it was made by Samsung...and then that it wasn't the true successor the Nexus 1.
It's like meeting a really hot woman...and finding out she's a dude...with a bigger penis that you...and he's a minor...and your best friend already dated him...and he has a better car than you...and your last gf left you for him/her.
Just utter disappointment and disgust all around. If Sammy was going to plaster a name like Nexus on a phone, they should have done a hell of a lot better than the Nexus S.
Until the G3 comes out (which will probably have a dual-core, more memory, a keyboard, ice cream, be 4.5" SMIAAMOLED (Super Massive Incredibly Awesome Amoled) and wouldn't use the Nexus S to eat it's morning cereal, then I'm sticking with my G2.
Plus, I finally own a phone all the best devs work on, and that makes me a happy guy.

The nexus S has the same proc as all the other sgs phones. Dont get me wrong, I like the screen and 2.3 but I could never switch. Lack of 4G, crappy design and no sd slot is a fail imo.

Hate to break it to you, but Vision doesn't have 4G either. It has only 3G, despite FALSE ADVERTISING. Not the only lie in the spec sheet... they also said it had 4GB eMMC, when the chip is permanently set to 2.1GB.

You'll be able to do little nerdy stuff on the atrix, so if rooting and having some fancy home screens considered enough then go for the atrix.
For me having 1 gb of memory + qHD res screen is a deal maker/breaker
Also, a doubt that the atrix's bootloader is gonna be locked forever anyway...

Go for the Atrix you'll love it I'm sure. You said you'd like to root and have a little fun with it, you can hook up the Atrix to a nice sized flat screen tv via hdmi and turn it into a computer. The Nexus S is also kinda outdated tech already. The newest thing is the dual core and 1GB of ram that's more powerful than my netbook lol.
thats just my 2 cents

Agreed!
I like to tweak, and I have been more than happy with what I have been able to do on my 1st droid phone with the help of the XDA community so far.
I connected my phone to my flat screen in the living room last night to show the the Webtop and the family couldn't believe what they saw.
Get an Atrix, and in 5 years when nobody carries laptops anymore, and it's all done with cell phones, you can say you had the 1st one!
I have an atrix right now and was thinking of switching to the nexus s, don't want to lose my 3.5 g though
Sent from my MB860 using XDA App
Both the phones have their own stand point.
Atrix on one hand does the deal breaking job with its Dual Core Processor/qHD Screen, but, it has MotoBlur and no Gingerbread in sight yet.
Nexus S on the other hand is Google's own, it has got all the Goodies except the Dual Core Processor/qHD Screen, but has Gingerbread on it already, has a SuperAMOLED Contour Display etc...
Holding two phones in your hands and comparing them side by side will do the trick. Go with what you like.
So far I love my Atrix. Haven't used NS yet, no comments about the performance, but if anyone wants to try different roms, NS is the one. There are a lots of Atrix users not liking the phone because of MotoBlur, which seems ok to me.
Personal Opinion : I like the way the bootloader is locked, so that you will have consistency on your phone, you don't have to back up your phone, messages, notes taken etc every now and then just because you are trying thousands of different ROMs available every weekend.
The Nexus S is clearly faster despite having inferior hardware, scrolling through homescreens and the app drawer is much faster on the nexus S. However, the atrix has the edge when you're actually opening those apps, albeit a small edge. The nexus S will receive more updates than the atrix and it's also already on a new version of the android OS.
However, i love my atrix. The fingerprint scanner (when it works) is pretty darn sweet and a great feature to have. I don't think dual core is even utilized yet, but i hope when it is the atrix will be even better than it already is. Oh, and the nexus S doesn't support 4G (?source). While the atrix doesn't have 4G yet, it should be coming out very soon.

I switched to a nexus s, I get the same quadrant scores if not higher than the atrix. The phone feels great works amazing and the roms only make it better. There is no lag and the camera kicks the crap out of the atrix. Battery life is phemominal and much better than I had on the atrix, plus it's much more vibrant with the samoled vs pentile.
I would get a nexus because at least for the moment it works better than the atrix.
Not trying to be a jerk, but as someone who has had both devices I can say nexus is much better.

I agree with you but I guess you are happy right now with NS because of the possibility to be able to flash any ROM anytime you want because of the Devs support. I wouldn't compare them both right now, as Atrix is not upgraded to Gingerbread yet. If the NS is still kicking Atrix's butt even after the upgrade, I am all in for this beast by Google.
I still love the stock Android experience, but Atrix's performance is not that bad. It does the job, it performs well. To me, except the VOIP voice support issue, everything else is much better than my N1 and iPhone 4. Battery life is way better than both, higher res screen is great, plus a Dual Core processor is a deal breaker... again, all of this is a personal preference.
Ok, so I bought a Nexus S around January of this year. Full price from Best Buy. Thought it was fantastic. It was my first "Nexus" phone. But a few months later, I got bored and heard about the Dual Core HTC Sensation. So I sold my Nexus S and bought the Sensation.
I loved this phone at first, but the novelty wore off. But the entire time I had it, the Nexus S was in the back of my mind. Sure the Sense 3.0 looks good, but for a dual core phone it didn't feel better. The Nexus S is faster. I know that Sense uses a lot of memory, and the Sensation was my first Sense phone, but it ruined Sense for me. I dislike Sense because of the Sensation and will probably never pick up another phone running Sense.
So, this weekend I sold the Sensation to a user on this site and bought another Nexus S. I feel that at this point, if it isn't a Nexus phone, then I don't want it. Dual core or not!
LOL thanks, i guess that summarizes what i've been hesitant about
I was also thinking about picking up the Sensation, or the G2x, but no matter how i looked at it, it didn't have as much development going on as the Nexus S
also the lack of SAMOLED is a big no no for me.
the only phone i've set my eyes on at the moment is the Samsung Hercules due out on the 09/26th
Yes, I missed the hell out of the Super AMOLED screen. It was one of those "don't know what you've got till its gone" type of things.
I would stay away from the Sensation and stay waaay the hell away from the G2X phones
The Super AMOLED spoiled me so I hope that Samsung gets the next Nexus phone too.

I think partly because it "just works".
The EVO boards everybody was trying to get AOSP/Cyanogenmod working and bugfree (bluetooth stack issues) and add Wimax support.
G2x also trying to get AOSP working, in a stable fashion. And they're trying to port the LG camera to AOSP. Also bluetooth issues there.
Here everything already just works.

This has been covered ad nauseum, but basically the other phone development forums are swamped with activity, most of which revolves around trying to get their phones to be like the Nexus is out of the box.
Maybe someone can start posting ROMs with features like "SENSE-less, no Touch Wiz, MotoBlur removed, ZERO BLOAT!!!!!?!" and then we can be like the other forums.
I second that, OP. Had the NS4G but then bought an SGSII and jumped on AT&T. SGSII was an AWESOME phone hardware-wise, and really liked that I was only paying $10/mo data for unlimited hspa+. But software wasn't as good as stock GB, and I missed the form factor of the NS. So I sold the SGSII and now looking for an AT&T NS, probably a white one since they went down in prices recently...then consider the Nexus 3 when it comes out
I have to agree with most on this board. if you want the newest updates always and if you want all the apps to work with your phone right off the back, stick with nexus. skype and netflix worked with the nexus right off the back, it took a couple of months before most of the other phones caught up. nexus prime is definitely my next phone, and hopefully it drops soon
Calm down kids. Before you go nuts this post is for pure speculation of the nexus s and how it will perform with ice cream sammich. Now that the next major update will support full hardware acceleration (..finally) I'm wondering what I call the king of the single core world will perform like. I feel like once it drops we will finally see what the hummingbird+vr540 combo can fully achieve. I'm excited. Hopefully Google won't screw us over and keep ice cream from us to glorify the nexus prime.
Cheers.

No worries you'll have ICS by Q2/12. On hte other hand Google said that one of the main features (yet UNannounced) will not be in ICS, maybe it's hardware accelleration.
Actually we will have ics the moment the source is released. (As long as android repos are back up by then!)

They only do so to cripple older iPhones so the new one seems that much better to the isheep. Think about it. The 3gs and the i4 rock the same gpu and 200mhz difference clock speed on the cpus. Yet ios 4 runs like crap on the 3gs. The os still doesnt support true multitasking so what is really slowing down the 3gs compared to the i4. Some missing features and what I think is imposed sluggishness make the phone look that much worse to the i4. I had a 3gs. I was part if the iherd until I got fed up and got my epic. ****, I bet the hero can run ios 4 damn well.

If ICS doesn't support hardware acceleration then I dont know what to say. Seriously, I have been waiting for that since the HTC DREAM...
Having a relatively lag free experience on the superphones should be a top priority.

iPhone 4 has more RAM. Doesn't seem that hard to figure out why it's noticeably faster.

More ram and a faster processor isn't a reasonable explanation as to why ios doesn't run well enough on the 3gs when Ios is very simple and isn't CPU intensive. Maybe whole running certain apps yes. But trust me when I tell you the 3gs was good enough to run ios 4 with no issues whatsoever.

im comparing it with the gs3 which is in this forum
This iphone doesnt even come close. And i think everyone will agree when i say that these iphones never look or feel different. If you have had one you have had them all.

that's true. Apple can't impress us anymore, at least not when it comes to phones.

Ridiculously itly
Too many touchy mothers on this forum! Nothing wrong with your post man except maybe you could have just put it in the other post about the phone which cant be mentioned. s3 has nothing to worry about. Expected specs. Nothing special
The Dual Core Cortex A15 is asskickin'
No Chance for our old A9 Quadcore

This isn't the iPhone 5 forum like others said. Everyone knows that this is just an iPhone 4s with a larger screen .5 more.
It doesn't compared because its apple and we have oranges

This will turn out to be a flamefest. Everyone has their opinion, and it is probably best not shared in an Android/Samsung section.
