the g2x is the best phone out honestly. but great video bob! every time im looking at a phone review i always double check and make sure i watch yours first!
Both are ok, but myTOuch 4g can be slow and laggy at MANY times idk if its just me, it dosent have much great battery, then the nexus s dosen't support tmobile and 4g speeds with the hd video camera. ima wait for the htc sensation or newer phones so, Im going back to my iphone 4 :)
Quadrant failed because the version of Quadrant you are using is not compatible with Gingerbread. It has nothing to do with the phone itself. You has fast boot enabled on the mytouch 4g as well. If you're going to accurately compare two phones, make sure the benchmarks are compatible with the hardware, and turn off fast boot on the mytouch.
@TheMxcnkid In my opinion, the myTouch 4G is better, but it's a close call. The Nexus S has a wonderful screen and a sexy design, but the myTouch 4G has 4G data speed and that makes the difference for me.
I think this review makes the Nexus S look a little worse than it REALLY is but overall I'd have to say that the MyTouch 4G is the best Android phone available to date.
All you people complaining about the UI are smoking crack! Its not "slow" nor "buggy". If you wanted boring, vanilla Android you should have bought a G2
I just want to say that the MyTouch 4G booted that fast because you had it in "fast boot" mode, which means that when it is shut down, its in hibernate mode similar to a laptop.
@fafeifa actually yes it does Boot that fast. MyTouch 4G has the new "quick boot" feature built in. turning the phone completely off, then turning it on and thats the time you get. its awesome.
@fafeifa Let's remember how people use these phones in the real world. I didn't do anything to the myTouch 4G, yet noticed that it booted much faster than the Nexus S. The myTouch 4G has a feature that lets it start up from an off condition MUCH faster than the Nexus S, a feature that the Nexus S does not have. No one will take the battery out of their myTouch 4G when they shut it down at the airport or overnight... they will simply turn it off and back on.
@wirefly well i just said the review is not accurate as you failed to mention it in the video while you perfectly knew that the MT had such a feature. While the feature is nice, it also drains the battery if you have this little battery and you trying to conserve it for this important call, you may get an unpleasant surprise the next day you turn the phone on.
Sorry for the double post, but you're doing people a dis-service by not properly using Quadrant. First, it's not a "processor" benchmark. It benches CPU, GPU, memory, and even the file system. The score you get on the free version is a flawed score that should not be used for comparative purposes.
Get the paid version and you'll see how these phones break down. You'll see the CPU is superior on the MyTouch, while the GPU is superior on the Nexus (when it runs).
I was disappointed to hear you call the lack of AT&T 3G support on the Nexus S to be "crippling." Really? Ok, I could understand if you brought up the lack of support for T-Mobile's "4G," but even then, crippling would be a bit excessive. Both of these phones are sold with a carrier subsidy on T-Mobile, so of course it's not going to support AT&T's 3G Bands! The MyTouch 4G doesn't support AT&T 3G either!
@jaykresge We actually went to a store, stood in line and purchased an "unlocked" Nexus S at the full retail price. I think it's fair to assume that many people purchasing the unlocked version at $500+ think that the Nexus S will work equally well on T-Mobile and AT&T, otherwise what's the point of "unlocking"? We want to let those people know that AT&T does not work as well as T-Mobile, even in a full-price "unlocked" Nexus S.
Which store? The only store I'm aware of as selling them is Best Buy. They give you an option to purchase unlocked, or the option to buy it subsidized on T-Mobile. They are also told to advise you that if you buy it unlocked, while it will work on AT&T, it won't support 3G
That doesn't change my point either. You're slamming the phone as being "crippled" for not supporting AT&T 3G. I think you should put your AT&T sim into the Myotuch as well. Then compare.
@jaykresge Best Buy. I didn't do the buying, so I don't know if the purchaser was told about the lack of AT&T 3G capability - however, that information didn't filter down to me and others looking at the Nexus S may not know that, either.
Since the technology exists for the phone to work at 3G on two networks, I think "crippled" is as correct as any other term. The device's performance is diminished on AT&T. Perhaps I should say that it's "AT&T challenged"?
Sure, but make sure you say the same about the MyTouch 4G, as it is also "crippled" in that same department. The Nexus S was designed for developer use on T-Mobile, as well as Euro/Asian 3G bands.
The fact that you put the AT&T sim into a T-Mobile phone shows bias. It would also help if you understood what quadrant does before commenting on that program as well. That was laughable.
@jaykresge With respect, I'm not convinced. The myTouch is actually branded the "T-Mobile myTouch 4G." No one would expect a device branded "T-Mobile" to work with AT&T. The Nexus S is branded "Google," which has no carrier implications. Yes, the myTouch 4G is made by HTC, but it is sold as the T-Mobile myTouch 4G.
You're not stupid, nor would I stoop to that level. But, you are obviously playing dumb. So this comment is for the readers, not you:
Bob works for Wirefly. They are in the business of selling subsidized phones online. They are not a (credible) reviews site. The Nexus S is ONLY sold through Best Buy (and they make it obvious that you're buying a phone for T-Mobile). Bob has to show bias towards the MyTouch, because it is a phone that Wirefly sells. That is why he slammed the Nexus S.
@jaykresge I think his point is...don't bother buying this phone for AT&T...you will be very disappointed...getting 0.5mbps on edge...buying unlocked phones in the USA is a waste of time and money....who wants a SUPER phone that only gets 2G speeds....
face it samsuck fans . samsung will never be as good as HTC period. So all those 10 million suckers that bought the samsung galaxy phone wont see the official 2.2 for a long time. I got suckered with the behold 2 when it was touted to have great hardware a year and a half ago. Now the samsung galaxy 2 will probably have 2.3 so many won't see 2.2 on the first galaxy . why because samsuck wants you to buy a new phone instead of supporting their current devices. yes samsung you suck
Wow this is amazing. You come on here and do a comparison yet totally cripple one of the phones your comparing. The Nexus S is capable of the same so called 4g speeds you are getting on the Mytouch 4g if you put a Tmobile sim in it. Also you put the Mytouch into fast boot (ie no boot animation) and then comment on how fast it boots....ridiculous!!
@Trumble76 Actually, the Nexus S doesn't work with the highest-speed version (HSPA+) of T-Mobile's network, while the myTouch 4G does. If you are in an area with HSPA+ coverage, the myTouch 4G will get significantly faster connection speeds than the Nexus S. I'm not saying that the Nexus S is bad, just that it's not as good as the myTouch 4G in this regard. I didn't demonstrate network connection in this video, so the AT&T SIM in the Nexus S wasn't at issue.
it was too quick! doesnt the mytouch got htc sense UI? how come he didn't go over what that is! need more details of what the phones can do besides storage.
It needs to be noted that the Nexus S is NOT "crippled". The Samsung nor Google have made the ATT speeds slower. The issue is based on hardware. The 3G networks for T-Mobile and AT&T are different frequencies. Meaning that the internal cell modem simply can't connect to the AT&T network since it is designed to run on T-Mobile. There are very few phones that will run on all 3G networks, the Nokia N8 is one of the only that I know of.
@Marc128000 So, it's possible to build a phone that runs on all 3G networks (since the Nokia N8 does it), yet Google and Samsung build a phone that doesn't have that capability. If that is not "crippling" the phone on AT&T, what would you call it? The manufacturer made a decision to reduce the performance of the device when used in a certain way, although there are examples of others that have full performance. You can use another word, but it is still "crippled."
I'm a fan of the Mytouch 4g but im more of a phone appreciator and i noticed something about the video, the networks are turned on , T-mobile's HSPA + is being ran on the Mytouch 4g while AT&T's EDGE(2G) is being run on the Nexus S which doesn't seem quite fair, it seems a big handicap in this smackdown
Interesting review. First let me say that I own both the myTouch4G and the Nexus S. I have been very unhappy with my myTouch4G overall. The specs are GREAT but the software design is quite possibly the worst ive seen on an android phone. THe UI is buggy and cheesy to me. LOTS of potential. Nexus S has a pure clean/fast/simple UI and the screen beats the myTouch4G out of the water. I recommended the Nexus S but you should look at the myTouch4G in the store to decide which is best for you.
@NorfolkWeather I had the same experience with the MT4G software making me angry. But I use it with Cyanogen Mod instead of the stock rom and I have to say when relieved of it's bulk (sense ui) it becomes an exceptional device.
this smackdown sucked. didn't go over pic/vid quality, texting, voice command or anything. It didn't even have a tmobile 3g ability for the sim. I think the mytouch is favored because you can get it on wirefly and the nexus is only at best buy right now.
@Manenuff21, I totally agree. What a moron. He acts like the quadrant test is such a big deal. Obviously there is reason why 2.3 is not liking the app...and that makes the NS a bad phone? Stupid...
thanks bob! i'm happy i bought the mt4g. i love this phone! i almost bought the damn vibrant... that would have been a pain! i wish the mt4g had the super amoled screen though, not that it's lcd screen is bad
when u buy this phone from wirefly(dot)com does it come with the plain white box like u have in the video or do you get the packaging from t-mobile that has everything packaged in the carrying case
@adilworth04 At the moment, Wirefly is not selling the Nexus S. The package we show in the unboxing video is exactly what we bought at another retailer.
@wirefly I'm sorry I wasn't specific. I was talking about the mytouch 4g when I asked if u buy it off of wirefly will it have the packaging from tmobile that's a carrying case or a plain box.
Nexus S appears to be a Vibrant with a front camera. Can't believe this phone which was supposed to be a "flagship" doesn't even run on T-Mobile's 4G network.
@quakerwildcat its not a vibrant with a cam it dosent even have touchwiz ui like the vibrant its a nexus phone with a front cam plus tmobile so called 4g isnt even really 4g it almost has the same speeds as there 3g now
we can't assume that all applications will function properly with 2.3 Gingerbread. You didn't give the nexus enough credit especially by saying you will never get high speed on the nexus s. yes you will get that speed if you are on t-mobile. this phone is intended for t-mobile so you should be using their sim.
@wirefly what is the difference between the armv7 processors, i see that the nexus s has a rev 2 and the mytouch has a rev 1, does that mean the nexus s processor is better
