The new Nexus has been announced, made by Samsung.

720p resolution screen

Android 4.0

The rest of specs are Galaxy SII like

[Skola]

will there be any benefit from a 4 inch 720p screen?

sounds mad but maybe a bit of a gimmick?

lookin forward to 4.0 aka ice cream sandwich

[Lenny]

I presume browsing would be immense, the text would be crisp, alot more content fitting on the screen.

Might be a battery drainer though

rip respect to the guy etc

but since he was being a prick i have this to say

"I'm going to destroy Android, because it's a stolen product. I'm willing to go thermonuclear war on this."

"I will spend my last dying breath if I need to"

After a week’s delay due to Steve Job’s death, Google has unveiled Android 4.0

UNLK.

Im currently looking at getting the current (samsung) Nexus 2nd hand at the mo... on ebay etc. That will be able to run latest updated operating system too? can anyone confirm.

As I was reading somewhere as it's branded as Googles official phone, it gets updates pretty quick. Compared to HTC/Samsung and the rest of the Android running devices?

[Lenny]

It's already running a leaked 4.0 build

It will be the first to have 4.0 officially, Nexus devices are always the first to get updates

Good phone too

[Kurtis]

wifi hotspot tethering eats battery like a motherfucker

its on point tho

[Guest haze-e]

Lenny. I downloaded an update for my sensation and it can now screenshot. All well andgood but it turns on by itself. I have no idea how to turn it on or off and it covers the home button. Over annoying. Any help?

[Kurtis]

I havent physically tried it out yet, but it doesnt look all that good to me

[Lenny]

Personally it doesn't appeal to me.

I'm not sure why yet
