Nexus-S,my recent purchase looks awesome,
After some gap of time,I'm back with Android,this time with speedy nexus,
Slim,light-weight,plasticky Nexus-S with briliant display looks really cute,
Overall response is pretty quick,I hope battery life will be taken care by 'Gingerbread',
I hope most of the apps will be compatible,

Package resembles iphone,simple contents,NO memory slot is a drawback,

I will write a detailed review soon,
Soon,many friends will join 'GingerBread' for sharing views!
Omg dude nice purchases, now enjoy!!! I'm jealous of you sadddddd.
btw damages?
uh isn't 16 GB inbuilt memory enough LOL
I'm dying to know the price!!!!
awesome buy. waiting for the review.
Congrats on ur purchase...how much you got it for..???
Thanks for all,
Got it for 33K (very expensive,from my regular dealer,Adyar Chennai),
I was flattered by the light-weight,breezy UI and crisp display!
Slowly working on it,no time for Cam,

Browser is good,
*i483.photobucket.com/albums/rr199/dhan_shh/br1-1.png
Installed some basic apps,
*i483.photobucket.com/albums/rr199/dhan_shh/atm1.png *i483.photobucket.com/albums/rr199/dhan_shh/off1.png
Battery needs some more time to analyze the life,
Mails are good,BUT unfortunately you cannot pinch zoom your mails???!!!! surprised!
NFC chip added,I don't know how to use it,need to analyze it!
Needs more time for assessment,
I hope more friends join this Nexus S Club (I think its available in grey in main towns/cities)
kewl which dealer in adyar, my office is in adyar only, can we install lots of apps like we can do in froyo? What is the main USP of gingerbread over froyo?
Nexus S official launch in India early feb?
Dude 33k is too costly man....i thought it will be priced at 24k and so did some of the other sites quoted.Also its 23k in ebay.
If its gonna be 33k then man...its out of my list...will wait for galaxy 2 and LG dual core phones...also ARC is gonna be arnd 30-35k.
@oval_man,thank you!
Except for sunlight legibility,there won't be much difference between super amoled & sclcd.
I've added few wallpapers (live),looking really good!
*i483.photobucket.com/albums/rr199/dhan_shh/ls3.png *i483.photobucket.com/albums/rr199/dhan_shh/hm8.png
Got my favourite app: Piano - really awesome!
*i483.photobucket.com/albums/rr199/dhan_shh/mp1.png
I've never come across any sms sending error,but anyhow,I've manually updated latest update from Google,....2.3.2
*i483.photobucket.com/albums/rr199/dhan_shh/up1.png
Except for occasional hanging homescreen,overall the performance is really good!
So yours is AMOLED or LCD??
^^^Not sure!
I think "iPhone 5" will look like this????????????????????????!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

"iClone" makes my NEX S look like this!
*i483.photobucket.com/albums/rr199/dhan_shh/hm10.png
^^^I've compared only for the screen size 4" vs 3.5"
LG optimus 2X widget is around here,looks cool
*i483.photobucket.com/albums/rr199/dhan_shh/lg2.png *i483.photobucket.com/albums/rr199/dhan_shh/lg1.png
But,it eats 12MB of memory,no transfer to SD card.....! hmm...Fancy Widget pro is better and consumes less memory 3MB.
Battery Life of Nex-S is definitely not upto the mark,once a day charging is a must even with very nominal usage.....Oh!...C'mon Android!....Where is my Power???
Stats look prominent only on screen (pic taken on my 2nd day with Nex-S)
*i483.photobucket.com/albums/rr199/dhan_shh/btt3.png
what are you saying!!!battery doesn't last a day even on moderate usage?
I was planning to get this from US...I am okay with no memory card slot..but if battery life also suck..then there is not much point in purchasing it..
^^^battery life is very average,don't expect more from Nex-S!
Got my "Honeycomb Wallpaper,live" looks awesome!@
*i483.photobucket.com/albums/rr199/dhan_shh/hc2.png *i483.photobucket.com/albums/rr199/dhan_shh/hc1.png
Many new apps...Android Market is flooding now!
Battery Doctor looks promising!
*i483.photobucket.com/albums/rr199/dhan_shh/bd1.png *i483.photobucket.com/albums/rr199/dhan_shh/bd3.png
More to come............!
can u pls specify how much exactly is the battery life.....
^^^^thanks nightmare!
