People in Google face hard times selling Nexus One and this time they are proud to present Nexus S Which a younger brother of his failed, so to say. Let’s have a closer look at what we are offered.
Once it is in your hands you definitely say what “S” stands for. The peculiar thing you will inevitably notice is that is looks too much like Samsung Galaxy S and that is where the S might be coming from – Samsung.
It feels good holding it in hands also because it is not that heavy, the weight constitutes 129gr and the curves of its shape lay smoothly in your palm which makes using the touch screen convenient as never before.
The overall impression of Google Nexus S outlook is good though we did find a thing we are not enjoying – the headphones socket is at the bottom when logic tells us it should be at the top to make it more comfortably fit into your pocket in case you want to listen to the radio while walking. Here we think it to be a bit of downside, there will be quite some of people who will find it a considerable flaw.
One definitely great lack of the S series is that they are not equipped with external micro SD socket. We do believe that 16GB should be enough but the thought of a necessary storage monitoring activity gives us a pain in the ass.
The screen is 4480x800px and looks good but not in the sun. In daylight it turned out to be a complete failure. This thing is a child of darkness and there is nothing you can do about it.
What we like in the new toy is a 5Mpx video camera which can do miracles of shooting. Numerous settings will result in HQ pictures and videos. Here you can find 2x zoom with white-balance and color-effect controls and everything you need just to feel confident when taking pictures.
In a word, the overall impression is more of a positive character as the gadget stands out among all other smartphones that are offered today by other Developers. Give it a try now and feel the power of Google in your hands!
