  1. last truth alive says:

    The comparison is quite not fair – nexus is bulky (screen is large only because the phone is bigger), design is not original and is totally copied/inspired from iphone. Is there an ipod in Nexus? NO! . can you accessorize it up as you can do your iphone? No! – above all how many years would it take to reach the number of application available for iphone (specially the free ones)?

    This comparison is not right according to me. The nexus one has 4GB of internal memory. It is expandable to 32GB but only with and SD card and it can’t be used for apps, only data storage. The iPhone 3GS comes in either 16 or 32 GB versions and all the available storage can be used. the iPhone 3gs 16 GB version is $199 on contract. The Nexus is a good start but I will stay with my iPhone. Tons more apps and a smoother interface.

  3. These are very nice tips that I will try out, I am glad I ran into it. Thanks.
