You may notice the curve on the NS.
MT4 looks thinner.
I got a good screen on MT4, and it doesn't have color fading or washout problem.
For fair comparison, I use same wallpaper. NS is surely a winner on this part
NS is clearly a winner on this.
Somehow I got red tint on the picture, but it actually didn't show such tint.

the MT's browser is much smoother than the N1

Do you mean the NS...?

I think both are barely the same when opening up xda.
I will upload a video to youtube to show the loading time.
Conditions:
both run on Skyfire and reloaded a few times on both.
both run on 3G and assumed both have similar reception.

Yes i mean NS

I had a rooted iphone running on t-mobile for a while, so today I went and opened a att account to try the iphone 4 for a few days. I did this because I was so disapointed in the browsing experience on the nexus s. The iphone will be going back but I am really pondering getting the mt4g which I owned for a few days before returning it because of bluetooth issues and the inability to send my contacts list to my car nav. I love the ns screen and styling but think I may go back to the mt4g since I will end up running a custom rom on whatever i choose.

Gosh that curved screen looks so sexy next to a normal flat phone.

It took me a few hours to upload merely 24MB blurry video.

Basically, the loading speed is tied between two.

Thank you for your comparison, my Chinese friend!!! (Hong Kong?)
How about the scrolling? which one is smoother?

Example photos?

Hi Guys,
Had my Desire HD for 5 days.. thinking of selling it and buying a Nexus S!
Just wanted to see some examples of photos taken with the Camera?
I've no need for amazing photo quality but still want something reasonable to justify the hassle in switching.
Thanks in advance

I took this picture in a completely dark room: Click to see how well it turned out
Also when you check out that picture, I have a picture of a fluffy green android I took, that was in a relatively dark room. (It's the one taken after December 16th)

Thanks for the reply... link doesn't seem to be working though?

Awesome thanks ... works now i'm at home so must have been my work PC playing up.
Looks good, pretty sure i'm going to swap

* UPDATE *
I'm now a proud owner of a Nexus S .
Went into my local Carphone Warehouse and from the minute i held it i knew i would buy it!
In my opinion it's positives over the Desire HD are:
- Speaker clarity and volume is 10x better
- Handset feels like a perfect size and weight (Desire HD was very big and heavy)
- The Super AMOLED screen is amazing!
- The camera takes photos and videos that i'm more than happy with

Good luck mate, its definitely a better phone than the hd, but the hd is a better spec

Thanks.
Yea i agree the HD is a great phone but for me just not practical.
I found typing on the HD a real pain and made endless mistakes. With the Nexus S it's easy

Welcome.
I also think my NExus S is beautiful.

You know, after spending the last few days wading through trolls who came to this forums just to trash a phone they don't own, don't have any intention of buying, and never even held, it sure is refreshing to see a post from someone who acknowledges the shortcomings of this device and yet, is still satsified with it because it is, in their opinion, right for them.
Thank you for this thread, OP. Let no one else but you decide what is right for you.

[Q] Has anyone else found that Google wallet works on N7?!

Just for fun I decided to try to sign into Wallet. I didn't have any faith that it works since it doesn't work on my Evo LTE. Not only did it activate, it showed $10 in my account. What was interesting was that the $20 I loaded onto the phone does not show on the tablet. Obviously, it's device dependent.

it was all over the web several days ago

I can't wait to look so cool at Starbucks by swiping my tablet to pay.

I read about the update but I missed the part where someone said it works. I have it on my phone and it doesn't work, despite being one of the features that was played up.
Sent from my Nexus 7 using Tapatalk 2

It should work. It was pushed out and can make payments without being connected to the internet.

As a matter of fact, I activated it on my gnex and I got the ten dollar credit. I used it with no problem. Today I got my Nexus 7 and set it up, and got another ten dollar credit. The gnex shows balance zero, the 7 says ten dollars. For what it's worth, if you set up wallet on a rooted device, there is a warning art the top of every screen that the device is not supported for security reasons. Everything still works fine though!

what the **** Is that real?

Best Buy has a test to check your touchscreen!!

Download the Geeksquad app. I watched him run the test in front of me.
It showed a horizontal dead spot one the upper portion of my screen.
I hate to say this guys, but the employees were aware of the problem and told me that they believe it is a hardware problem.
Don't shoot the messenger - It's what I was told.
They took it back outside of the 15 day return window and issued me a full store credit.
I'll wait and see how people like the new LG G Pad.
Good luck!!

Is this the app being referenced?

Could someone please post the apk, its not available in my country

For those in other countries, here is the apk:
http://www.mediafire.com/download/ufx4z87z5l2ecq8/com.androidapplication.geeksquad.gsa.one-1.apk

Thanks for the apk. I just ran the test and all it let's me do is test 5 areas of the screen and multi touch in top third. Am I missing something because I don't see a full screen test.

Same here.

Sorry guys, been at work.
Turn the tablet horizontal and try to drag the screen all the way to the right upwards.....Mine did nothing...
The manager even came and checked it out.....then gave me the nod - YES!!!

I have just completed the touch screen fix and it worked! I also could not complete the Greek squad test holding it horizontally. I had ghost touches, dragging issues and now my touch screen works flawlessly.

Maybe it is software..... I have no idea, just the opinion of Best Buy employees.
I hope they fix it, I'll still never buy anything from Google or ASUS - terrible service.
They ran from the problem.

If you don't have any daily issues I recommend to not try this app, I don't have any issues overall with my n7 and don't want them either.
Don't look for the issues

Totally agree. I haven't noticed any issues with my N7 and don't want to, haha.

I'm not sure what I'm missing but the app doesn't do anything different when being held horizontally....

Tap 10

Has anyone received the "Tap 10" promotion on android pay yet? I've been patiently waiting.

Did you get the updated app? Once I updated I saw the promotion.

Lot of good it'll do... I went ahead and set up pay and have wanted to use it but nobody accepts it. Everywhere I go I ask and they all tell me no.
Sent from my Nexus 6P using Tapatalk

I got an update a few days back. I believe it's version 1.2.1. I'll just keep waiting patiently. I was just curious if it started rolling out.

I got it. My 1st tap counted. Unfortunately my next 2 didn't. Google is taking a look at it.

Cashiers have no idea about Android Pay. It works basically everywhere for me. It uses the same system as PayPass and so forth. Just look for this logo:

So did the card just show up or did it show up after you made a purchase?

The card just showed up for me.
That said, I'm only eligible for three songs, rather than songs and a Chromecast. Has anyone else experienced this? My only thought is that I'm getting a lesser offer because I took advantage of the best Buy gift card offer previously.

I really think it's random. I already own a Chromecast and I used the Best Buy gift card as well, and I'm eligible for a Chromecast.
Google fixed my issue, whatever it was. Woke up this morning and saw where yesterday's transactions counted.

Did you just give feedback in the app? Or who did you contact?
