Interested in getting a Nexus S - Nexus S General

So yeah, I want to get one, but it came to my attention that there are a few versions of it. So my first question is what version do I need for usage in Europe (Croatia)?
Second, what is the price of that model (new and used)?
And third, what kind of a price drop do you expect after the release of the Galaxy Nexus?

I am in Spain
i bought a new Nexus S cost me 329 euros
all Europe is i9023
personal idea price for galaxy nexus , more than 600 i guess

What about used? Do you have any idea how much a used Nexus S would cost me?

Depends on your bargaining skills but I would imagine you could pick one up for 200-250, second hand.
As qtwrk states, Europe has the i9023 model which comes with an SLCD screen instead of an Amoled. I have one too and it is fantastic.
Nobody knows what the price drop will be after the launch of the Galaxy Nexus, but I wouldn't count on it to be that much. A few phones have passed the NS already with better specs, the Galaxy Nexus will just be another one.

yes, but , i don't think it's gonna be any cheaper than i9100 , i9100 needs about 550 in Spain ...

Why not? The SGSII is better than the Nexus S in about every way, apart from it not being a Google phone.

I would disagree... the sgs2 is only faster and with that said it isn't that much quicker and personally I prefer the size of the nexus s better.

Is it 200-250 usd or eur?
Sent from my GT-I5800 using XDA App

I was referencing to euros, but seriously... check ebay or something and you'll get an indicator immediately.
Or do you want us to find and buy the phone for you?
Greetz

I bought a new i9023 for $300 from dailysteals which isn't there anymore. Should be arriving soon hopefully.

In the Netherlands you can buy an i9023 new for about 260 euro

I got mine yesterday in Austria for 199€

its such a great phone I really love mine so I say get it!

in China only needs about 1900CNY, about 190euros , and ... i feel it sucks that i bought it with 329euros...

Just get the galaxy nexus on Verizon. It's the best network too.

I think a lot of Croatians will disagree with that

I bought my nearly new Sprint NS4G on eBay for $220 shipped, last month.
The phone was indistinguishable from new and the seller was a fellow xda member. I'm sure the prices have dropped slightly due to the newer phones that were released.

Bought new Nexus S for 199€ 14 days ago in shop called Saturn in Austria (went by car, 50km away). Look for austrian shop di-tech, also 199€ and you can buy online!

Got mine on Ebay for £420
I guess I'm the only one that will mention it..... move on????? Are you kidding?? You'll sacrifice your exynos for lte? Its a downgrade in every way *except* for the lte. FYI, I sold mine for $650 yesterday to get a white one.

Thats a great selling price. I guess mine is priced accordingly due to condition.
I wish I could say the processor has my tongue wagging but for me I use a lot of data and LTE is a higher priority

The At&t note is a dpwngrade in every way as the other poster said.
At&t is also known for throttling LTE users very fast so until the tech is refined, LTE is not worth trading out the Note.

Hmm good deal but I personally prefer the Galaxy Note, and would probably pick the Galaxy Nexus over this too because of the $200 price difference.
I've ordered a Galaxy SII and a Galaxy Nexus from Daily Steals within the last 6 months or so. Oh Daily Steals, why doth thou tempt me once again?
For anyone who bought one in the USA: how much was the total after everything? I imagine there were shipping costs, import tax, etc?

let us know what non-wifi dl speeds you get on tmobile. i got 10-13mb's on their lte. know it won't be that, but just curious and dissappointed with dl speeds on n1 with tmobile. when contract is up, may switch carriers.
Just read about it via tmonews on an off subject about HTC One S.
So Glad I waited...now to play the waiting game to see when it arrives...
Not bad considering I bought the nexus one when it came out and got the Galaxy Nexus for $450 after taxes and shipping!
so you have a GN on what carrier?

trading my htc one for nexus 4?

so i originally had the iphone 5 but i traded that for an htc one and i must admit am a phone junkie always wanting to switch things up and now i got an offer for my htc one plus 40 dollars. only thing im sad about is downgrading from 32 gigs to 16 but for some reason i really want to try the nexus 4. would you guys reccomend this? yes or no. i dont think you can go wrong with either phone honestly
You're getting ripped off in my books. HTC one is twice the phone mate.

well the thing is nobody on craigslist is selling one. should i ask for more money? if i honestly deserve more money than $40 plus the trade im sure hed understand and if not i can just keep my htc one. i just kind of like the hardware setup of the htc one as far no hardware keys etc
Is the HTC unlocked? Sell it on eBay and buy the nexus. But honestly, it's not worth it the nexus is somewhat of a downgrade. My bro has a one and the screen and speakers alone are a lot better. Plus, 16gb does suck I have 10 GB of music and I don't like to stream because T-Mobile doesn't have the best signal when I'm driving around town. And if you don't like sense put cm on the phone. The developer edition comes out soon so vanilla Roms should be bug free and updates will be on par with Nexus 4

Sell the one on eBay or clist or swappa. Then buy the nexus off of eBay or the playstore. I think a new nexus is about 350 or so. A HTC one used is about 450 to 500 I'm guessing. The point is that a bad deal on your side. The nexus has been out for about a year and the one for about a month. The nexus can be boght brand new at a cheaper rate then the one.

Oh see I don't know how much you can really sell for since its locked to a certain carrier. My brother got a really good deal when upgrading contract it essentially cost him $50 (paid $150 with a $100 mail in rebate) if I were you I would just keep the HTC. Is there something it lacks for you

Its not in stone. I've backed out of deals just say you did some research and the price difference is not worth the trade. You aren't obligated even if you make a verbal agreement to meet.

honestly i just wanted to try something different and the nexus looks pretty bad ass to me i just like the over all design. i am not all up to date on specs and features so im not going in very educated to this trade thats why i came here i like the htc and all but i really have always sort of had a thing for nexus phones. so just keep the htc is the vibe im getting? what phone WOULD be worth trading the htc one for? im always looking for something new...smh
Nexus 4 has a bad photo camera.
No full LTE support.
No extSD.
but has much better software cos it's vainilla/aosp Android with Google binaries that are supported on AOSP without issues.
The Nexus 4 hardware would be a downgrade. How about you flash your H1 to aosp instead? Then you would have the same software as the nexus.
Sent from my Nexus 4 using xda app-developers app
Currently no phone is better in my opinion. This and the gs4 are essentially equal in hardware it depends on preference of amoled over LCD. However, I do think the features touchwiz offers like the hover gestures and stuff are better than things sense has

Is nexus an upgrade ?

Hey,
I've owned a one x for almost a year now and with its intense usage I came to notice that the phone is getting worse. Heat problem is the biggest one together with minor damage getting worse on the device.
A nexus 4 is only 300 euros in Germany so I'm thinking about buying one. Are there any people around that know if German phone would work in the Netherlands?
It has the same processor speed I think but the nexus has the stock android look and gets updated regularly.
Any advice is welcome

Honestly, the One X is kind of a failed phone. It has the potential but does not use it fully. The Nexus 4, on a daily usage (opening apps, tweeting, fb, instagram and such) shown to be faster then the SGS 4. So yes, it would be a huge update. And I wouldnt bother waiting for the 5th Nexus. I would by the N4 and when time comes, i'd switch
Thank you so much for your time and advice. I might check a few stores here and there in Germany this weekend. All I need to know now is if it would work in the Netherlands

My N4 was definitley an upgrade over my S3 and I would consider the S3 a much better phone over the One X.
But the N5 will definitley be an upgrade over the N4.

The N4 basically obliterates any older phone like the One x. But yeah, I don't see why it wouldn't work as long as you have GSM carriers operating on the appropriate bands, plus you're already using the One X.

Wait until the nexus 5 is announced. If its the same price and you get it in your country go that route.
One x is a more than capable phone to hold out at least to Google makes its new nexus announcement.
I recently changed from a One X to a Nexus 4, and it was a huge upgrade. The smoothness and speed of the Nexus 4 was such a big change I couldn't believe it at first. Highly recommended.
I switched from a HTC One X+ to the Nexus 4. The one x+ was supposed to be a faster version of the One X, and the Nexus 4 was still miles better than that! So you'll definitely notice a huge difference. The The Nexus 4 is just really smooth, no lag, and no extra rubbish on top
One Xs is a very good phone if you can put custom rom one it,. But otherwise I'd say skip the Nexus 4 and get the Nexus 5 when it's released which is soon.
