Nexus One VS iPhone 3GS.....VOL ? *Kanye Shrug*

[rezzurrectme]

Nexus One?

iPhone 3GS?

Has any iPhone user made the switch? How is the keyboard compared to the likes of the iPhone? As you know, you can try out the phone before buying because Google is selling off their site. So, I'm here to see if anybody in the forum has played with both to compare. It would make sense to get the N1 seeing how I have tmobile and can use the 3g. However, is the iPhone 3GS really slow on on Tmo's edge network? Would like to know your thoughts. Thanks

P.S

How is the battery life between the 2 device?

if u plan on staying on tmo and are in an area with 3g service than nexus one hands down...

edit...
not sure about the iphone battery life but out of a full charge i have no problem making it through the day with the nexus one with regular use

You could go either way, the flexibility of a Jailbroken iPhone is great.. among with the many other things you can download onto your phone free of charge using this certain application on the iPhone... or the great Android OS which I think is far superior to the iPhone OS in terms of multitasking and ease of use (IMO), I have the HTC Hero and it's great, but I'm on Sprint's 4G

Keyboard is better imo. And if you don't really like it, you could just root the Nexus One (similar to jailbreaking,) and change it. Plus, if you don't feel like typing, you can just talk to it and it'll type out the words for you. It's  surprisingly accurate, too. Of all the times I've used it, I've only had to change a few words and I've had this phone for a little over a month.

That along with the strength of the Android community, vast variety of useful applications (iPhone may have more, but quality > quanity,) and the overall "wow" factor of people when you pull it out(

,) the Nexus One is an easy decision.

Yes, OTA updates started earlier this week.

 

[oo the roc oo]

I had a jailbroken iPhone, and I made the switch to the Nexus One.

I love it so far.  I've had it for about a week now, and it's great!!

webOS is the best looking OS IMO, and also has the best multi tasking. i dont see how android's screens are cluttered tho. especially since u can add/remove icons from the main screens. + the notification bar is great

AT&T is getting a N1

OP just go with the N1

I got the Nexus and i live in hollywood, fl just minutes away from miami and i have full 3G all the time since the OTA update. This phone is lightning fast. I made the switch from sprint Palm pre to this. I agree WebOS does multi-tasking beautifully. But the refreshing of the cards made it lagly for me, partly becuase of the processor? But snapdragon and the user open-ness of Android is what i really like.

 

[rezzurrectme]

^ Might make the purchase this week or next.....

 

[billionaireboysclub315]

Nexus One....super fast and just got an update with multi touch

 

[limitedretroog]

I'm surprised how many people are switching from iPhones. A year or two ago, everybody on NT were raving about it.

 

[rezzurrectme]

^The snapdragon does a lot i hear......

 

[pacmagic2002]

I wish i could get the nexus one........T mobile screwed the current customers on this one.

Ill wait till my contract is up to get another phone......im sure google will come up with something better in november when it expires.

 

[rezzurrectme]

Wow......seen this while reviewing the N1
