My 1st Android Nexus One - Small Review



Pros
- Solid build, definately nicer than what you seen on net.
- Stunning AMOLED screen (as stunning as OMNIA II with 16M color support)
- Smooth Effect overall.
- Multi-task is great, I can open more than 10 apps in background. (Not like my Omnia II, keep shutting down my apps)
- Extremely speedy during surfing internet, the best web browser so far I use before, it is definately better than iPhone 3Gs. (Base on my friend iPhone 3Gs)
- Good picture quality, the auto focus is working well even on macro shot.
- Actrative Photo browser.
- A lot of useful Free Apps.
- Great Multi-touch, as smooth as iPhone.
- Great GPS, I can even get location indoor. (This is dream in OMNIA II)
- Simplicity but functioning well SMS/MMS apps.

Cons
- Sometimes a slight jerk effect will happen when lots of apps running in background.
- No way to re-arrange Menu icon, it sort automatically via alphabetical order. (Maybe I not finding yet)
- Music player is simple and not attractive.
- Total apps not as many as iPhone, cannot purchase apps if you are not in US, UK, SG and HK. (unless you root it with custom ROM)
- No video calling (but is ok for me since I never use)
- No Outlook sync (I can't believe this feature is excluded as free, currently I found one too expensive, troublesome and not worth to buy)
- Standard charger is for US market. (but can use converter, and so happy is my OMNIA II charger can use on it as it is standard microUSB port)

Fix/New Feature after apply build ERE27 updates
- 3G signal is stable and no issue.
- Multi-touch feature.

Wish
- Add-on Outlook sync.
- High quality games like iPhone (I know it is capable just less developer at the moment)
- FM Radio (read someway it actually got hardware support but due to software issue)
- Touch to focus during capture photo.

Added on March 3, 2010, 8:59 amguys i read from some instructions, when applying screen protectors/skins, they use solutions (water with washing liquid/soap??) and dip in the SP, allow the excess to drip, then apply on the phone, after that use card/linear object to scrape out bubble/excess liquid D:

is that even safe? i mean wont the liquid be left in between the SP and the screen?? lolz. i'm afraid the moisture will seep in the phone!

to be honest, i tried running my DCMugen Clear SP under the tap water haha, then i let it drip until most of the water is gone, and i applied on my phone screen, but after a few seconds, i thought to myself, "are you sure???" i backed out in the end mopped dry the water and everything LOL  just aint brave enough to do it.

Yeah~ IS is sticky ~ it stick lot of lint while i take it out from my pocket and it is not easy to clean those lint..
after apply IS on my screen~ it is not smooth anymore while dragging on the screen.
BodyGuardz no stiky problem? how much for it for only the SP?

from soo
