Now that I have the dough to buy...just wanna to reconfirm the following :

..screen is scratch resistance ?
...got no MC in box
...black or white..which is better ?

1) yes..confirmed...even tried with my own unit.
2) yup...no memory card included. (unless u get free from the shop package itself)
3)this is a subjective question...some like white & some like black. (i prefer black...if get dirty hard to notice...plus i love black...80% of my t-shirts are black colour tongue.gif )

u say like this makes me feel like i should have gotten nexus s in the first place  sweat.gif
wat phone u using?

tongue.gif Still the phone in my sig. Getting W soon. I played Nexus S many times. It's just that I'm surprised that the performance is like multiple times after rooting it. Of course, ROM does a very big job there, fully utilized.
Oh ya... That is, if you wanna root it. Stock, don't know. Nexus S runs Android Vanilla on stock which means no extra thing at all. I don't know how they compete on stock.

I'd go with package though. I'm sort of internet person and hated that sometimes public wifi are hard to connect else slow
DiGi is having promotion for RM68 package, they give RM15 rebate over 24 months. RM5 is discount for auto-billing. That means RM20 rebate over 24months thus left with RM48 per month.

On the other hand, RM48 package is not having promotion. It's RM43 because of the RM5 rebate for auto-billing.

RM68 package is under promotion and maybe that's why they only provide 24 months contract while RM48 package is normal package thus offer 12/24 months contract. Device is more expensive for 12 month contract and Rm48 contract. Besides, the device advanced payment amount is also different.

I still dont understand the term and condition , the advance payment must be made ? what's the different in the package ? mention RM 399 but advance payment is RM500 rclxub.gif rclxub.gif
Is it really some kind of joke to cheat ppl ? So what's the different between getting a new one ? RM 500 advance payment > phone price RM399 ?

then try usb debug, copy other things again, then no problem,
reboot phone also no problem.
then evening delete some files, scan also no problem.
then I use .nomedia on a file in external_sd,
it update and reload scanner, then problem again (on usb storage),
then reboot still got problem.
reboot 1-2 times same, usb debug also same.
back home, I delete file from exter_sd,
it rescan again, then no problem.
it seem like "non-stationary" problem.

W, cheapest of all, performance on par with S+ but it's released the latest, thus lack of "community support"

S+, same chipset thus should have same performance but it has a bigger screen, a slimmer profile and AMOLED but resolution is still the same. That means pixel density is lower than that of W. More stylish than W, lose on price and LED flash for camera. It has gorilla glass too.

Nexus S, quite old, Ori is not worth buying, AP Nexus S is priced in between Ori W and S+. 1GHz stock, GPU is SGX540 which I think is more powerful than Adreno 205 seeing how Galaxy Tab perform on this GPU. The thing here is... If you're to get Nexus S, believe me, root it and you'll be amazed. My friend got his nexus S rooted and it really get optimized. Since Nexus S is branded as "Google", it's widely supported by the community, a lot of developers released ROM and kernel for this. He flashes ROM like... every week, so much fun to play there. But you need to know that you can't get AMOLED version of Nexus S now, except 2nd hand. You'll get a SLCD here in Malaysia. The nice thing of SLCD is there's more subpixel compared to AMOLED due to what what pentile thing, google for that. Nexus S, if rooted, and overclocked, is capable of having much better battery life than stock and also unleashes its true power. OC to 1.4GHz, quadrant is higher than stock S2. Depends on which ROM you choose too. Really amazing what that device is capable of doing. Appearance wise, it's quite thick but quite nice to hold due to the contour design. Last thing, Nexus S got NFC. Might be useful in far future. (Other countries I would say Near Future =P)

Oh ya, Nexus S shall get official ICS upgrade. W may not be getting it.
All 3 are made by Samsung, shouldn't be much difference in built quality.

Edit: Forgot to mention the built-in storage. Nexus S got 16GB, S+ 8GB, W 4GB... erm... or should i say 1.7GB. Lol...

Edit2: Nexus S no 720p recording~ Forgot to mention too. tongue.gif

wait a minues, who say GPU SGX540 is better than adreno 205? =,="
adreno 205 is better in term of graphic than SGX 540 (@200mhz in Nexus).except @300mhz or @384mhz .
somemore 1ghz A8 processor is no match with scorpion 8255 1ghz,
not to say scorpion 8255T 1.4ghz. =,="

for benchmark, it's no reliable, even old x10 overclock to 1.8ghz also pawn S2's quadrant with that lousy 8250 processor.
most important is much more latest processor provide more powerful hardware with open GL and other newer parts and intergrated gpu and software bundles.

if you pro in root, flash rom, newer and better processor will be better.

just want to say, SGX540(@200mhz) is not better than Adreno 205. lolz

But i'm saying SGX540 is powerful, never said at any clock speed. Yes, 200MHz like the one is Galaxy S really lose out to Adreno 205.
Rooting wise, if and only if they both are optimised the same way, you need to know the number of developers working on Nexus S since its launch back then. My friend got his nexus s rooted about 1 month after the launch date(not really sure, just a guess), that's not just rooted but with Custom rom. Many devs work on that because it's very easy to work with. No doubt, hardware wise 8255T wins but whether it can be as "efficient" as a rooted Nexus S with a nice ROM, different case.
It's like given same hardware, Mac OS can squeeze every bit of juice out of it while Windows still hang once in a while. Hope you get me laugh.gif

for the SGX543 on ipad 2, currently the "best" gpu. lolz.
but i really like mali400. T_T
S2. lolz, why you so expensive.
