Yesterday, I found this news in phonearena website..

QUOTE
Needless to say that the Google Nexus One will live on in memory as one of the most profound Android handsets to hit the market, but when asked about a potential successor, Google's very own Eric Schmidt noted that there were no plans for a second Google branded device.

However, some rather interesting pieces of news surfaced recently regarding a potential Google Nexus Two handset. This time is comes from British business paper City A.M. which sites that a Gingerbread on board Google Nexus Two will be ready in time for a launch this upcoming holiday season. However, it looks as though it'll be available in the UK with exclusivity going to popular retailer Carphone Warehouse. It's not certain from the report whether or not other regions around the world would see this mythical device, but the unnamed source goes on to say that it won't be manufactured by Samsung.

But when you think about the relationship that Carphone Warehouse has with Best Buy Mobile in the US, it's striking to say that Google has some prominent partners at hand if they were to indeed launch this device in time for the holidays.


So, does it true? Dunno yet as Google say nothing about it for now.. rumors spreading so fast.. And if Gingerbread is a real deal, then next developer device from Google is a must! nod.gif nod.gif

LOL!! So same build as SGS!! If I'm the one saw it too.. definitely I'll say it SGS.. no doubt!! laugh.gif laugh.gif laugh.gif
If this is Nexus Two then.. I hope Google really know their performance before with Nexus One which's a flagship for the developer..
If not, still with Samsung's quality though.. Better go to SGS than Nexus S.. sad.gif sad.gif

Thought of changing my N1 to N2 but now no more. don like the appearance of the nexus S. T_T

Relax bro.. This's just a spreading rumors only.. Even Google still saying nothing clearly about this N2.. We should wait till the announcement date.. nod.gif nod.gif

If just a rebranded Galaxy S with that glossy plastic, sad. I much prefer HTC's build quality (except the screens).
*
Yeah, except the screens.. HTC's LCD screen already left behind by iPhone4 IPS LCD and SGS Super AMOLED.. Just look at Desire HD.. unsure.gif

Low weight is good, but I really hate the fingerprints the glossy plastic attracts. tongue.gif

They should choose the Teflon plastic used in the white HTC Hero. Keeps the phone light, and prevents smudges and fingerprints.

My friend using HTC Hero back then.. Unfortunately, he sold it already.. The phone really awesome when it first came out! With unique body built and material used.. No wonder that it won Smartphone of The Year 2009!! thumbup.gif thumbup.gif

Exactly! The DHD has such a nice big screen, but doesn't look as good as the SGS's Super AMOLED. Anyway everybody knows that HTC is choosing SLCD not because SLCD is superior, but because Samsung is restricting the supply of AMOLED screens.

If I was Google, I'd build my own factories and produce a phone
- With the aluminum unibody of Legend
- Shape of iPhone 4
- Super AMOLED screen
- Stock Gingerbread

Yeah I love my HTC Hero. Too bad the processor is already quite outdated.
But recently got rumour of HTC Mecha that may use Hero's build form but with better specs.  drool.gif
*
Then, have to wait till 2011 to produce it because of Super AMOLED then.. nod.gif
Shape of iPhone4 only OK? Not body build of it because of percentage iPhone4 owners claimed their phone is higher than 3gs owner to warranty.. Why? Cracked body.. laugh.gif laugh.gif

google choose samsung coz of their awesome hardware ? why not asking htc to develop software for them, HTC + GOOGLE  + SAMSUNG  = winner

Great idea there! Software from HTC, Android OS and Samsung hardware.. But, Samsung wanna conquer their own brand I think.. That's what happened with SGS..

Haha yeah, just the shape. Nice and simple. But don't use glass, use the aluminium build of Legend.

But I much prefer the glass on iPhone 4 to the super-fingerprint magnet on the 3GS and iPod Touch.  shakehead.gif I think most 3GS/Touch owners get a casing is because of the fingerprint issue. Can't be to make it look better, because bumpers make iPhones look ridiculous.

Currently they're using HTC Hero's image as placeholder for HTC Mecha, that's why people assume it's going to be like Hero. But nobody knows for sure.  tongue.gif

If they don't wear bumper, they will lost call a lot more than other devices! laugh.gif

Does it mean HTC Mecha will has chin like Hero? tongue.gif

the thing that likely missing is notification led,trackball,solid build and no physical button if it is made by Samsung

That are consider a lot loss for a phone then.. Especially solid build.. What a mess.. doh.gif

why still put SuperAMOLED... should go for Super Clear LCD...

aiyo.. I think you are the one that use your phone in your room rather than outside, right? people who choose to go for Super AMOLED is the one who care about screen appearance quality.. nod.gif

But, plastic build attract more fingerprint to it than aluminium one.. (don't talk about HQ glass on iPhone4..)

I prefer Super Clear LCD any time...  much more accurate in term of colour reproduction

Yes, much more accurate anytime.. But a little bit weak in contrast compare to Super AMOLED.. Viewing angle is lesser too.. nod.gif

As I said, I just use a pouch when I'm carrying and it's not in use.
Not like I work in construction or warzone and drop it everyday and need some hard case. tongue.gif

LOL! That's true.. Hard casing or silicone whatsoever just ruined the phone's look.. better feel it directly to my hand's skin..
And if it fall to the ground and nothing happened than small scratches then you know that actually you pay for this quality phone.. nod.gif nod.gif

it looks like this.. i get the picture from mr google
» Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... «


in my opinion, the case only changes the back part of the phone. in front it's about the same

It took me very long time to find this, can say i ask around in LYN garage sales but no1 is selling. so i went to ebay and bought it from a seller from UK...
mana tau the seller use normal post to send, it took 2 weeks to reach my house...
if u wanna buy better black matte wan coz although the silver wan looks nice, but it will become very oily at the back... hehe..

At first I thought Nexus One facelifted version when I look at the back picture only..
Anyway, nice cover there.. Does it make your Nexus One feel different than you feel it before? I mean, body build feel..

Yeah, maybe I need to wait for the confirmation from the Google news about it.. Same like Gingerbread and Honeycomb also IceCream.. Before this, Google also denying 'em but at last it's true after all..
