Android Ice Cream Sandwich Review (Nexus S)

[patricksasu]

Rumored that its coming out on the galaxy s 2 on the 1st of march.

[HM9408K1LL3R]

For those private browser sessions... make sure to clean the phone afterwards, dude.

[xtomtom17]

kinda dicked all over iOS 5 that does hahaha

[DunderMifflinInf]

I love those private browsing sessions.

[mega1343]

Is the real Ice Cream sandwich out for the Nexus S yet? Im planning on getting the 4g one from sprint next week.

[MrChan2chan]

U donot need this get go launcher from android

Market

[KingCurry84]

Hey guys does anyone know how to get that lock screen animation at 22 seconds without rooting the phone (Not using screen off and lock application, but when you actually click the lock button) I have a Galaxy S II Skyrocket by the way. Thanks!

[Basszilla]

Nice little review. I'm using Lord Clockans ICS on my DHD and it's AWESOME! I didn't know about the new voice stuff or how to create folders until I saw this. SHould be in the startup intro. Many thanks my friend.

[AlecBrennenFTW]

When I check for updates on my phone it says "server unavailable" what does that mean? Please help

[rsparth]

Wtf kind of a name is ice cream sandwich? Are they selling the phone to 6 year olds? Morons

[Basszilla]

@rsparth It's the name of a type of desert. Like all the other Android versions....

Why, what would you have called it?

[UndertakerHC]

can't wait to get ICS in my Optimus Sol

[WeARExRez]

whats new gingerbread or ice cream sandwitch

[SkinnyMethods]

@WeARExRez the sandwich(4.0), where the gingerbread is 2.3

[jjoeshaw]

This isn't the full version

[Wlee1985]

Love how android releases SDK's and only two things dont work on ports to other devices. Gotta love a polished os :)

[ST3V13G4LL0W]

Why is it that1080p is better that real life quality?

[xXNemEsiS18Xx]

how do you get ice cream sandwich? i have a nexus s 4g and i havent got a system update option....please help

[stogi5959]

4:12 ''i renewed it it is perfect yahoo'' xDDDDDD

[stogi5959]

i maybe get this phone because the galaxy nexus is way too pricy where i live,and contract is not an option. i never take videos so i dont mind the lack of 720p video,and since the ics update for this phone is coming soon,its just the icing on the cake!

[thomasabhilash]

and the xperia series recieve ICS in march.

[khans620]

wow, it's running smoother than many other phones with ported ics

[cheezo545]

my favorites are full so i added this to watch later ;)

[cheezo545]

please answer me, if you do this update do you lose any applications? i did an update (official) to my old motorola defy and i lost all the google apps that came with it, how do you install it?

[MrQarsim]

Looking forward to this bad boy on my SGS2

[galaxyapps]

please come to galaxy s2!!!!

[samuraixyz]

Hey, are there really battery issues, lag, and wifi/data/signal issues for the Nexus S on ICS? There's been a few articles on that and in the google help forums.

[Taazz9]

Good review. Thank you for this vid !!

[banguncool]

whats next after Ice Cream Sandwich ..??? just waiting and watching on Youtube.. LOL

[omairbirthdays]

Amazing..

[koftaiscool]

[925tiger]

i have to decide soon...

[howtosubscribe100]

The original ota update is here :/

[fagerbag]

wind home!

[venomisakiller]

Got this phone free by starting a new plan with sprint xP lol

[MrGMXander]

great video, ICS has convinced me to get the nexus s over the wp7 windows focus , speech to text is such a USEFUL feature, i can see myself using that a lot.

[RumbleM0NKEY]

Lol.. Private browsing..

[seventhidentity]

I do like your icons instead of ICS MR1..

[scumbag41]

Am planning to take a new phone. Suggest me which shall i go for? Either Nexus S or Optimus 2x?

[RumbleM0NKEY]

@scumbag41 yo NEXUS S is better. I recommend it! I take bus 7 N.

[pinman109]

Androids make me hungry...

[pinman109]

Androids make me hungry...

[MrOzozah]

[rishabh148]

Wind Mobile =)

[alexthemanpunk]

I've got ice on my nexus s its so good so fast for me.you get new apps.just so great

[basketballfanatic1O1]

I have the Nexus S 4G and i can't wait till ICS comes out for it! :D

[MAXS0ES]

PS does voice regocnicton or something like that in dutch?

[MAXS0ES]

what a weird camera icon on the lockscreen

[JonBj2]

It's good to see that they didn't strip down the OS for the Nexus S.

[l1aK]

has anybody experienced that his battery lasts longer (or shorter) in comparison to gingerbread?

i thought about buying a nexus s (also because of its 4.0 support) and that was a question which came up : )

[andibanget91]

Thanks for the video.. :)

[Sweetybboy]

thank`s for video!!!

i really want update my Nexus S to this ICS !!!!

and hope really will be faster than gigenbread and maybe yet more diffrent changes.. thanks..

[brianxman007]

when does it come out in europe ?

[myxxmichuki]

Developers give food names because the treats in the software are worth comparing to a treat,so they are very proper

[MrCina89]

whats with the names of ice cream and food and shit put a proper name

[Zulu12514]

+1 For GTA and Wind Mobile!

[ayidafiq]

go launcher can do this.

[DrAFILN]

Man ur review was as good as the ICS... hopefully the official update will be out soon for nexus s

[erdwinjc]

does it support the exFAT file system on micro sdxc 64gb+ cards?

[renkinjutsu01]

My goodness.. An ICS review where the reviewer actually KNEW that folders were available in Android before ICS

[CineOT]

@renkinjutsu01 not true.

[renkinjutsu01]

@CineOT What exactly isn't true?

[CineOT]

@renkinjutsu01 thumbs down for you.

[JonBj2]

@renkinjutsu01 AND before iOS.

[SirEpicWinrar]

It took them *this* long to make a smooth UI? Really?

[TheMASDrummer]

is the video camera awesome?

[ItzMeAnders]

Sideways app scrolling? Apple better sue..

[whoknows00100]

I have the gingerbread on my nexus s 4gs how do u like the ics software for nexus s ?

[micklimis]

Can the nexus s shoot 720p with ICS ???

[MrRanielchannel]

@micklimis Just because of a software update? No I don't think so :P

[micklimis]

@MrRanielchannel

But, the htc desire was able to shoot in 720p with the froyo 2.2 update... so it could be. But i've updated my nexus S to ICS and there's not 720p sadly.... and also the galaxy s and nexus s share the same prossesor AND the galaxy s can shoot 720p!!

[cheezo545]

@micklimis unfortunatly no :( the update does not include hardware

[micklimis]

@cheezo545

yeah i know now, but 720p doesn't require hardware updates....

[cheezo545]

@micklimis 720p (display) does not but taking photos and videos in 720p does though :)

[sajaljain17]

@micklimis Unfortunately NO.. :( but now it shoots in MP4 format instead of 3gp.. :D

[EricGrain]

@micklimis Unfortunately, no if you are still wondering. It has the max resolution on 480x720 opposed to 720x1280

[arjea1996]

@micklimis I think it could shoot 1080p with ICS...

[aleksy36]

@micklimis yes, sure. ;)

[doopyx]

I want to update my nexus s!!!

[foreverzub]

Brother, I had a massive headache before watching your video.... But It went away after it... Thanks for your efforts..... Thumbs Up..... :)

[verbat1900]

Thanks for explaining everything very good video, actually makes me want to upgrade to ICS I was on the fence but now I got to upgrade!

[4554transjormer]

Galaxy nexus coming out apple has no chance!

[Sushant1219]

Does ICS upgrade brings HD video recording to Nexus S.....??Please answer......

[Sweetybboy]

@Sushant1219 hope that will be haha.. !) omg it`s really awesome ICS.. i would like update to that but now it`s gigenbread.

[M0dernDayP0et]

Hey guys. I don't understand the source. Can someone tell me

[TheZacKall]

What about the broswer?? has again the lag?? or they fix it?

[MiKaiiEL]

How can i update my device?

[poloboss66]

@19sert Yes htc announced that evo series is one of their flagship phones so thats getting update to 4.0

[traywormley]

Only. Phone is up for. Update is the nexus s only so screwed apple. Galaxy nexus is on its way people

[kishorshack]

9 dislikes probably sobbing apple fan boys :P

[19sert]

Will this be able to update to any phone?!? For example HTC EVO 3D?!?

[Previous1Next2]

holy shit i want that......

[iNiyant]

I'm waiting for an update for my Samsung Galaxy S II :D

[ieatglueathome]

This video really makes me want a Nexus S and I have one.

[NitroPathfinder]

show us your stuff so far

[Baldess64]

I have a xoom and the update IS NOT COMING!!!!!!!!"

[0012pfanne]

very fast :) my nexus s coming this week :)

[onevietnamese]

Android copied iOS. No, iOS copied Android. Who gives a fuck! Its competition and it benefits us consumers in the end. And if you know how, both of those OS can do the same thing as the other.

[josephmegahee]

cant wait for asus prime!

[enesgulcicek]

Widgets in the launcher? Dude thats stupid!

I want Folders in the launcher!

[avigole]

Android has copied ios 5 to a sizable amount still two thums us to ios 5 (y) (y). I personally own an ipad 2 update to ios 5 and I love it.

[Yggbertz]

@avigole iOS 5 copied loads from Android. Who really cares who copies who? It's better features for more people on a variety of different operating systems. Competition is good, people copy ideas and refine them. This ain't new.

[Fpoon11]

sounds kinda like kermit the frog



[CZambrano94]

haha incognito tabs for those "private browsing" sessions

[TheTechJoint]

Android just coppied the fuckin folder thing

[rza1m]

@TheTechJoint How else are you meant to make a folder?

[bSTyLES2323]

Great review. I can't wait until the update rolls out for the Nexus S 4G. The voice recognition texting is amazing g. Everything is fucking amazing.

[123yamomz]

Will this void my Warranty if I Install Cyanagen [Spellcheck] Mod? Becase I just got my nexus, and I dont want to void it.

[DELMQR1]

im so happy you posted this !!!

[FatfighterXD1]

ice cream sandwich. But wouldn't that be soggy and you wouldn't be able to store it for long... oh it's an OS

[meisema666]

ICS>iOS5

[GranTorino992]

@meisema666 IOS 5>>ICS

ICS>IOS 5 in copying

[meisema666]

@GranTorino992

... Well where do you think Apple got it's new notification system?

Steve Jobs once said "Good artists copy, great artist steal". Look I'm quite fond of Apple I'm no Google (or Apple) fangirl.

But from an unbiased view ICS destroys iOS5 when It comes to software. The iPhone's operating system has changed about as much as my bookshelf for the past five years. Apple needs to bring it...and they didn't, Google did. Google blew Apple out of the stratosphere with ICS.

[dephekt22]

go ANDROID!<3

[RobertBenson86]

'Liked' the video man. Great review

[c3vzn]

@Srodriguez28 give it up bro. Android's been out for 3 years and is most popular OS. Sure it has borrowed stuff from there but so has iOS from Android.

[SRodriguez28]

@c3vzn I'm not an iOS fanboy or anything. I just expected more from Android Ice Cream. It seems they're borrowing TOO much from iOS, at too fast a rate.

[MrSuperkiki]

@SRodriguez28 who gives a sh*t? You think apple didnt copy anything? Lol

[rightwing8877]

@SRodriguez28 i expected more from ios or even the new iphone in general

android is "innovating" while apple is playing catch up i.e.imessaging,notifiaction bar,voice to talk ect

[iamnotkurtcobain]

can you port this to galaxy s2??? please!!!

[WatchMeNotification]

@SRodriguez28 retard

[Cweezy230]

This is an older build of ICS not the newer one

[stickdiggler]

they totally copied the iphone

[polize234]

@stickdiggler how so?

[BrutalityIsMetal]

@stickdiggler *cough*iOS 5 Notification bar*cough*

[CityFlashLights]

This is an older prototype of ics

[Kingkarabu]

Search drew garen ice cream sandwich. He made the sdk port its a flashable able zip.

[2ndaccord]

I need this on my evo.

[MophieZ]

Now, I want to know how HTC sense will look in ICS

[oblivion183hv]

ICS will be exactly the same as iOS 6 and Apple will call it "Revolutionary" ...

[BrutalityIsMetal]

@oblivion183hv PFFFT the iOS will never be as flexible as ICS... or and version of the Android OS... Apple can only dream...

[ST80FMIND]

You have some goofy looking people in your contacts

[Zulu12514]

WIND FTW!!

[daamah1]

btw has anyone got a hack for a htc wildfire to get droid 2.3 or higher?

[daamah1]

how good is the gaming?/

[daamah1]

in england we calll an ice cream sandwich choc ice sooo wud that meean it wud be android choc ice?

[Technorat61]

So what happened to your 4S did you throw it away

[Jeeviis5]

Great review..subscribing and liking

[Blackbirdg2]

do we need internet to get voice recognition to work??

[wale5y]

nice vid Lew!

[DoomSwitch]

I love how idiotic the apple fanboys make themselves sound when they say Android copied iOS5. It's quite the opposite and always has been for every product in Apple world. Pull down notifications has been with Android since birth. So has been voice actions; Siri was purchased and no "apple engineering" went into it. Apple engineering = lawyers leveraging patent theft and lawsuits vs. profits.

[mrshauntham]

@DoomSwitch

Well you can't deny that there are some elements of copying going on between all of the OS platforms... It's a mutual thing...

[H3artOfaBaller]

I was disappointed when a phone showed up :/

[crumcon]

looks like our girl Siri is a slow thinker eh :)

[MagicFerret69]

Android phones are bad fact.

[Mobliz]

I renewed it is perfect yahoo!

[CalenderJuiceSheena]

Sweet review Lou! Now I want to eat an ice-cream sandwich :)

[TerranceTheL33T]

@CalenderJuiceSheena so do I!

[xxSullyMan]

An add to get rid of adds, how smart -_-

[smileydude93]

How do you like Wind. I tried it but service was too spotty.

[ReviewAmateur]

I have to pee

[xXWondrouSXx]

Do u buy all that stuff?

[Phaug148]

I want to install this on my ipod 0.o

[boratkhan]

Boom.....

[krazi305]

U SEXY BEAST.

[wbezuidenhout]

Apple copied Android's notification bar, Android copied Apple's folders. Who cares, each company tries to add their own flavour to it.

If you're REALLY that bothered by it, I hope you're driving a Ford Model T, because every car since then has been copying it. And what are you doing with a cellphone in the first place, shouldn't you be using an MTA?

The entire world runs on innovation, taking an existing idea and making minor improvements, get over it. Original ideas are rare today.

[ThePeckAtTech]

this unfortunatley will smash the fuck out of iOS 5

[KingThrashin]

Will This Come To Droid X2?

[TehMegaNoobZor]

he ywhat do u use to edit ur vidz?

[HoldFast043]

You personally ported it? . . .

[l3g3nds540]

Do you know if the GNex and/or the Droid Razr are coming to Canada? We never get the good Androids T-T

[MegaDudeReview]

when does this launch?

[tweetiegur09]

this is so awesome!!

[McErnster]

@unboxtherapy how did u get it on ur phone

[iAutogenius]

I love how impressed he is when many features are over a year old( ios4)

[McErnster]

how did u get it on ur phone

[technochrome19]

Android > iOS

[Armon1254]

Yea cuz ios hasn't copied android at all. Dumb ppl.
