Everyones moaning and crying about the nexus one being outdated by newer phones such as the incredible and the evo but technically they're all outdated since the htc scorpion is going to be "whats hot". Its really annoying how some of these people are so concerned about being outdated. Appreciate what you have and make the best out of it.

I think
The nexus is still the top phone, which is why I ordered one yesterday even with all the new phones out, this is my reasoning.
Even with a1.5 processor, our nexus can be clocked to a stable 1.2 at least, and with that speed I font believe a phone actually Needs more because my nexus already flys.
That's just my input on this outdated deal.

If you always MUST live on the "Bleeding Edge" with the best of everything, you will run out of blood and run out of money.
The way I see it, living always on the newest hottest thing out there are for the people with more money than brains.
Yes, I have a Nexus One, I bought it BRAND NEW, but my total out of pocket expense was $140.00, because I sold or traded stuff I had, but stuff I could sell to get the money I needed to get this phone.
So it would not be worth it for me to try and get the next new hot thing out there because I love my N1 and would be hard pressed to see something pass this one up.
I have played with TONS of new android phones that are not out yet (MyTouch Slide, what a joke) and NONE of them are anything that even gave me a slight twinge of wanting to jump off the N1 scene.

these threads are lame... and obviously started by people who don't even own a nexus one.

TotaL BS News...
From a Nexus owner perspective the future is not about slightly better hardware, but about adding real value to the OS.
As far as my Nexus will be updated to any future Android releases I´ll have the better phone out there...others will always have to wait for Google´s compasion.

If that’s what turns you on then fair enough. I maintain the best reason to get a Nexus One (if you accept you eventually have to plump for some phone instead of holding out forever) is that if Google does something cool it’ll pretty much definitely come to us first. And more than likely before everyone else.
But that’s just me, I’m more of a software fan.

If you are referring to me and this thread, you’ve not read it properly. Please see above.
If you are referring to people I criticised in my original post, then I think they probably do own a Nexus One, and become incredibly defensive about it. The people that don’t own one tend to just post saying how they are not going to get one and then their reasons. You can tell because the whole post usually smacks of someone trying to convince themselves of something.

I thought the Scorpion was rumored to be a tablet anyway.

BigDamHero said:
And yes for everyone debating if the Incredible or the Evo mean the Nexus is outdated you can all relax.
Because they are out of date now too – search for HTC Scorpion.
.... which I expect to also be superseded around about tea time.
It’s a point that’s been made in other threads – but you CANNOT keep up with new tech (especially phones). You’ll end up financially ruined if you try. So we can all stop going on about it now and just enjoy our Nexus Ones?

Link?
Specs?
Any info at all whatsoever?
So does this phone make the Nexus One obsolete simply because of its name?
Lol?
How about providing some real information? Or is this just a troll thread?

I read your post. You said the Evo and the Incredible are out of date because of the Scorpion, without giving any reason why.

I said almost the polar opposite.
Anyway the HTC Scorpion, IF all the rumours are true will have a faster processor (1.5Ghz). Just search the name for references (as I said in my original post). Given how people are positively suicidal over a slightly better camera on the Incredible, I imagine this will not go down well. Its only a few rumours at the moment.
What I’m basically saying is the N1 is amazing and in no way obsolete just because something newer is out. There ALWAYS will be. So lets not live and die over newer phones that are going to come anyway. Thread after thread of it. Lets just bask in the glory that is the N1. Again I say see my previous posts.
I’m not trying to troll, just posting my viewpoint. What’s disturbing is you are potentially the second person to accuse me of exactly what I am criticising.

Epic sigh..
Right fine. No-one is reading, just posting. Pointless.
Mods please close / delete the thread? Or if someone would be kind enough to let me know how if I can close it myself?
Thanks
Bye

This whole thread is dumb; even with the Scorpion coming out HTC is working something to make the scorpion obsolete. Being obsolete doesn't make our Nexus any less awesome than it is.

Wow, they ALL totally missed your point. You were basically telling people to stop complaining about the Nexus One being obsolete. And they all jumped on you thinking you were the one complaining.

[Q] Trade iPhone 4 for HTC Desire HD?

If anyone is interested in a HTC Desire HD for an iPhone 4 trade, check my thread.
MOD Edit:Link gone
Thank You
Don't spam the forum please....feel free to include a link on your signature...I know it sounds redundant but that form of advertising it's allowed. And once you include that info on your sigy...do not spam the forum with pointless posts...see, round and round it goes

I did change iPhone 4 for Desire HD... Too much better than iPhone 4!

why dont you just sell the iphone ?, im sure you would get the whole price of a dhd and more from it they are ridiculously expensive outright, i guess thats what brand name awareness does for average products

exactly, that's one of the reasons i voted for it
the other one is because i became kinda attached to it, despite it's flaws and limitations... and i also have high hopes for its future

wow, only 8 votes difference between them at the moment

Voted ..
Man, WebOS is ahead with 8 votes, come on !

ever so slightly ahead now, but assuming all the others vote against WP we probably need another 2000 votes or so

wow close race. I voted.

ok they edged ahead again, time for some bumping!
anyone posted on the WP7 forum?

Android on Ativ S?

I cannot stand WP8 for some reason... Are there any hacks that allow to get JB on it?
No flame wars please...

Why didn't you just buy a Galaxy S III?

Traded a HTC One X for this phone because I think I have a better chance at trading this phone for one.

+1 this is one of the dumbest questions at this point. i mean, did the OP do any research AT ALL? the ONLY windows phone that can get android is the HD2, which isn't really a windows phone per say anyways.
GS3 goes for pretty cheap now, why one would think that this convoluted trade sequence would be the best way to get from 1x to S3 is beyond me.

Just kidding. I wouldn't buy it even if it was the only smartphone available. Using my old Nokia until Handtec dispatches mine.

We need more votes! Comeon people.

Why? Fanboyism proves nothing other than people can't trust their own judgement and need to criticise the other options.
This bull**** just makes it harder for other consumers to make an informed decision.

Don't need to since HTC One is already destroying the S4 in the polls anyway.

Dude chill. We're in the One forum. So it's basically about the One. Nothing else. It's not fanboy-ism.

That's a fair point. I really hate the fact that polls like this exist though - most voters will have not touched either phone yet so what does winning mean other than self-pride stroking.
I've chosen the One by the way, but I'd rather have real discussion about that phone rather than 'it's better than x and x and x' so we must vote!

Fair but you have to see it in this way.
Polls decide pre-interests for a device. It provides future perspective of the success of a device.
It's true when you say no one has touched it yet. But we can judge the interests for each device.
It's clear the One is gaining more interests than anything I expected.

I'd imagine those voting for the one are probably the awesome people like me who bought it and think its epic where as those voting for the s4 will probably have seen a picture of it since its not even preorderable.
I hope for our sake the HTC One doesn't fantastically well, mainly to prove to HTC that they hit the nail firmly on the head with it. It didn't produce an iPhone killer, it didn't need to, but it has produced the best phone on the market IMO.

Honest to God question, do you think that the HTC One will sell more than the S IV? If no then what is the point of the poll?
