I am never selling my Nexus S as long as it doesn't die. Even when i get a new phone i will use Nexus S for music. Not only do the new phones have terrible volume output but they are too big as well to be used as mp3 players.

I have used the international S3 and its volume is way toooo low. Nexus S is better even without voodoo sound. People have pretty much given up on getting stable voodoo sound for the S3 its been so freaking long there has been nothing. The amplifier is just plain inferior not only to the nexus S but to alot of other phones as well even the US S3 is more powerful. No amount of "clean" audio can make up for lack of volume.
Even the iphone 5 dropped the ball as far as power is concerned probably because of the "thin" BS that has surrounded the smartphone world now. Iphone 4S/4 and nexus S/galaxy S remain the best audio phones. Iphone is best out of the box but nexus S beats it after voodoo sound. Its almost shocking that we dont have voodoo sound like sound with stock, reviewers would have crapped all over it and it would be more recognized as the greatest audio smartphone ever.
I've heard the Innos D9 (rebranded in ph as cloudfone thrill 430x) and it comes close to the SQ of nexus s.
The owner believes it has a yamaha sound chip in it capable of producing the sound i was hearing. The sound is more "airy" and "wide" than that of the nexus s but the nexus s is noticeably more detailed.
Both devices are great performers sound-wise and it's just a matter of preference what to choose.

Wow that is good to know. Looks like my next phone won't be the s3 after all. I just presumed that since it had a Wolfson then voodoo would be available for it.

Can't you just search for the beats audio software mod that's been zipped up and flash it?
Criticism I heard/read about beats audio is that it's mostly software enhanced "gimmicks", E.Q stuff etc, and can be flashed to most phones...

I've heard the "Beats" audio, it's mostly enhanced bass and tweaked treble. Was not extremely impressed.
As for my new GSIII, I like it. Came from a flashed GSI. The improvement is alot more than coming from an older laptop to a state of the art one...
Yeah, I rooted it a few hours after getting it.
I came from the Aria, so the difference is pretty significant. I will say that I think the screen is ever so slightly too large. I think 4.3-4.5 inch displays are the perfect size.

Came from a gs2. Ran aokp and fluxxi kernel and it was smooth.
But the gs3 beats it by a mile.
Gps is faster. Battery life is way better. Data speed (lte) ****s on hspa and I love the screen... Plus the camera is very nice.
So overall the difference for me is pretty big.

Happy, mostly... Wish I wouldn't have had the evo to play with first, grr... That camera knocks this one's dingle in the dirt, the display is much nicer, and the devs are killing that thing, lol, I'm sitting here with my rooted phone and thumb up my arse wishing I knew how to dev cause we have not one Damn Rom... On the other hand I do like playing with Samsung as it's a tad different than HTC. It feels maybe a little better than evo in my hands, in a strange way, the phone feels a little cheaper so I'm not as worried to use it like it's intended. This thing gets hot and has performance issues and hopefully all my "issues" are all software related... It does have removable battery which is huge for me as I like to keep a few extra batteries charged and ready to go, HATE to be tethered to a wall. The sound on this thing is really loud and clean, really appreciate that... The digitizer is a bit spastic at times but that might just need tweaked as well... It does have 2GB's of ram:-~ lol, I don't know any Sammy devs either, did they all go to evo??? Lol, Need to flash something, going through withdrawals:-o I also don't have any of the display having the black spots or weird colors so maybe I got lucky for once... Ramble, ramble...

I have an evo lte too and it's screen + camera is beautiful. I just got my s3 in today and I'm sure they will be more devs when everyone is actually able to get the s3. I mean I pre-ordered mine on the 7th and it didn't even come until today with all the shortages.
Give it time, the devs will come here =)
Sorry dudes/dudettes had to make a change and leave the 9 life mytouch 4g. Which one would you choose? Both cost $99 on windtab. (Aka contract). I went with the HTC one s I've only used it for a day and so far my impressions. Beats audio sound is excellent, cameras is quick and beautiful, quadrant scores of about 5200, speakerphone is loud, battery is pretty darn good. But software... Definitely needs a custom rom. Lol why bother with the question you ask? I pretty much chose the one s because spec wise it is superior to the nexus BUT software wise the nexus will have the latest and greatest from Google.... What would you have done?
Keep in mind I could still exchange it....

If you have the money, ditch the contract man, it'll save you SO much money within 6 months, expecially if you buy the Nexus.
As for preference, i would have to go with the one s. I actually like sense so thats part of it (its freaking beautiful) but i like the size of it better. I don't need this massive brick of a phone lol. They are pretty much the same once your root them.
I'd do the one s.

Have you used them? Cause they are actually better than every single headphones (non branded) that have come with phones to date. The quality for free earphones are actually pretty good. HTC have done a great job.
To answer the ops question they are generic earbuds. What do you want me to call them? Cheap China earbuds which they probably are
I have beats ear buds and seinhiser or whatever its spelled.

The Nexus 4 is the perfect phone for me, no doubt about it.
However, being the tech geek that I am there is no doubt in my mind I will grab the Nexus 5 about 6 months after it's released (I don't want to deal with launch-day drama and hardware issues which always seem to plague the initial Nexus releases)
I can say, however, that I will only be buying Nexus phones from now on since they have finally stepped up to the plate with decent hardware and specs. The Gnex was a massive disappointment to me, I sold it within four months of owning it.
Same for me. I had the one x for the last year but it has started giving me trouble by not recognizing the Sim card was in the slot.
I was torn between the nexus 4. HTC one and the galaxy s4.
After much deliberation I went with the nexus 4 and I'm so glad I did.
I owned the nexus one before so I am already accustomed to the nexus experience.
I honestly didn't expect the 4 to be so much better than the one x. Snappier. Better gaming performance and longer battery life.
I'm so glad I switched

Running Paranoid Android and in playing with the One I have noticed it is generally smoother. Could this be the software?

its the hardware, and maybe some proprietary bits in the software.
I thought with the s4 pro we were at the point we had more power than was needed to run our phones at top speed though. Was I wrong?

there are always optimizations that can make thing a little better. most of the optimizations(like dalvik) on nexus phones would be propritary. plus the cpu is a more recent revision(among other things).

Of course it's faster. It has a Snapdragon 600 processor. In other breaking news, water is wet, and the sky is blue.

I agree. Android should be optimised for the Nexus range ONLY, like Apple do with iOS. Only then will it ever be a perfectly smooth experience.
If other companies wanna put out 15 Android phones a year, then they should do their own optimisations to ensure it runs properly.

They do do their own optimizations... they optimize their Android manufacturer skins (TouchWiz, HTC Sense, etc)
It may feel faster but that's only cos of the transitions HTC have added in, they have minimised many that are in stock android and sped up a few as well, thus overall giving the illusion that it runs faster :L

Its probably the software HTC uses. Try the S4 Touch wiz launcher on the Nexus 4. Really smooth. Smoother than the stock one

That's bs. Any truthful Nexus 4 owner will tell you that there's still lag and slowdowns here and there. If Google had more ex-engineers from apple then we'd probably have better software *cough* camera.

i hear, rumors of course, that they are gonna focus(pardon the pun) on the camera on the next nexus.
The HTC One is a beautiful device. It's specs are amazing. I just wish it didn't have to cost over $500-$600. It would be sweeter if HTC makes the next Nexus smartphone.

I'd have to avoid it. I hate HTC. My phone LCD cable stops working and you know what they told me?
"You took the HTC dev unlock, it'll cost $250 to fix"
Yes because software breaks your display cable. And thats when I ran it over with my truck

Well they had their turn with the first one... supposedly right now it's between Motorola and LG. It would be weird if it was LG again, from what I heard before Google liked to switch from manufacturer to manufacturer for promotional purposes.

I think a Sony Xperia Nexus sounds pretty neat. But if Google makes a Motorola Nexus, it better be mind blowing.
