Nexus One: The Story - Episode 5: Day One

[SmallDisasters]

why is this video suddenly private? Oops, we put the car dock in there! And no 3G icon (in San Franciso, where T-Mobile most certainly have 3G, and it worked on my Nexus One last week there). Quick, get it off! Google, that's a FAIL

[Yewon2001]

I cannot wait to get the Nexus. I'm really hoping it'll come on verizon's network by April

[UnitedGingdom]

These videos are awesome, google sure knows how to make an advert, can't wait to get this phone but its not due out in the UK for a while. Really annoying! I know i can get it unlocked but i'll wait and get it through Vodafone.

[AirForce194]

I am in the US and I am waiting for the Verizon version.

[jcgalindo79]

For those claiming you can do these things on an iPhone...that may be the case with some things but you can not do them all at the same time. Multitasking is impossible with your 3GS!

[iSummerboy18]

These videos looks pathetic. Everything this junk does can be done more elegantly on iPhone 3GS. nexus hne just copied off stuff from iPhone 3GS.

[Uejji]

Oh cool! I'll buy an iphone 3gs right now! I don't like Mobile Safari though so I'll install a different web browser... wait, you can't? Oh... so I'll take advantage of the free navigation in Google Maps... wait, not there? Can I at least customize the thing? Oh I can change the order of the icons. Can I at least use the thing on T-Mobile? Oh you could but they made an update to stop that.

The iphone 3GS is just the same iphone with better hardware. Android has actually innovated.

[normskilight]

Your right, the iPhone will do it too, for a few months until it breaks itself. lets face it neither are gonna let themselves fall far behind the other in features. But my HTC has been flawless in its reliability, every person i know who has an iPhone is not on their first, EVERYONE.

[SmallDisasters]

It's on edge the whole time! Unless it's on AT&T which I doubt this is just advertising the 3G problems.

[crispyowns]

if i buy a the nexus one from google can i activate it with t mobile prepaid sim card and still get g3?

[SmallDisasters]

no, t-mobile don't have any prepaid data. That's why I got a data plan for my Nexus.

[rbjplay13]

Oooh! The car dock at 1:09!!!

[VirginsEyeViewDotCom]

It's so sick that car dock.

[GabrielKnightz]

It simply is:

The Next Best Thing!

[kleiner933]

i love it

[choumarin]

Isn't it iPhone interface on center and right screens @1:32 ?!

[akarun]

Good catch! Wish maps for android had the drop pin sort of interface

[somuchgreater]

haha my droid does all of that

[pascalfleury]

no shit, the droid and nexus one both are running android os

[besofrhcp]

so does my g1 ha!

[death42er]

so does my droid

[somuchgreater]

@death42er you running a custom rom

[death42er]

nope why?

[somuchgreater]

jw. bugless beauty is the shit

[lazygit247]

haha ok im gonna be really sad and say it but if u pause at around 1;15 ish when the navigation is running you can hear the woman talking but on the notification bar the speaker is muted ????????

[death42er]

thats true my phone (droid eris) does that...

the phone has like around four volumes (that i know of)

1. is the defualt volume (which is the phone ringer)

2. is the navigation volume

3. is the sounds/notifications (all thought usaully the defualt controls the sounds/notifications unless changed in settings)

4. and the last volume is the media volume (for music and games and stuff like that) so to correct myself there are four volumes that i know of

[PJStock42]

i like how the batterys already almost dead when he takes the pic of that tower building lol

[UnrelentingAssault]

I seriously wonder what app they where using to map out constellations. That's pretty gnarly.

[zenimus]

@UnrelentingAssault It's called Google SkyMap and it's freely available on the market.

[UnrelentingAssault]

Alright thanks! :P

[death42er]

google sky map it's dope

[MrBlur02]

just watch all video nexus series.. start from design and the last is one day with user.. lol

very cool.. hope N1 coming in my country...

[death42er]

hope it comes to verizon my girlfriend needs a new phone ( i doubt it though)

[VirginsEyeViewDotCom]

Its coming to Verizon Spring 2010. Thats already confirmed.

[RB4lboa]

Damn... It's like showing a thirsty dude in desert a picture of a cold coke :-(

Just hope that has not been the last episode... Keep them comin' till I got one in my German postbox....

[StarlightMassacre]

if you pause at 00:52 you can see the video is edited in.

adobe hasn't released flash 10.1 for mobile devices yet.

[lazygit247]

@StarlightMassacre yeh you can thats a really bad edit as it doesnt even cover all the screen, well spotted.

[SgtH3nry3]

HTML5 beta for YouTube works on Android x86 though, which is 2.0.

I'm sure it'll work on 2.1.

[death42er]

what are you talking about? i could do that to

[HerrBismarck]

Wait, so he called a taxi, but still put on his navigation?

[Hergonan]

@HerrBismarck no the taxi driver put on his nexus one afaik

[HerrBismarck]

@Hergonan:

No, it is the same voice. And I have never seen a taxi driver who needs a GPS. They know everything

[Hergonan]

@HerrBismarck yeah, try UK! Almost all taxi drivers (dunno about London) in here use GPS'

[HerrBismarck]

Oh, didn't know. Every single Taxi driver that I have met never use GPS. They just know the city.

[amehu]

haha.. you should come to Dublin.. they even have TomToms and stuff but still usually lost!

[death42er]

maybe the taxi took to long?

[Hergonan]

53TH

[peoplecraig]

please google,in france we want the nexus one please

[PrimozResman]

Oh cmon Google, bring it to Europe!!!

[dequix]

what's the music?

[PrimozResman]

Latch Key Kid - Miracle Mile

[chrsosnds]

Whoa wait! At 00:52 is the Nexus One watching YouTube via HTML5?

[StarlightMassacre]

flash plugin, not HTML5

[CyberPirate23]

This would make a GREAT commercial for the N1! Google, come on, advertise this thing!

[majdijr]

i want a Nexus One :(

[stss2TV]

mee too :(

[Goomba141]

Great Video, but uhh....Google, you spelled Episode wrong on the title. lol

[sleemiz]

gaaah I need the nexus one! ship them over to europe right away please :D

[miwabba]

ebay buddy... and trust me, you won't get disapointed!

[prognik]

great video, great phone!!!

google kicks asses!

[Diigit]

love my nexus one =)

[ajnfohofjeno]

Please come to Slovenia soon

[bricofera]

We want TV-SPOT!!

Thanks Google for the G1!!

[DarkMerchant2222]

wait a second did he just Navigate the Taxi with his phone!?????

[ericst2003]

Yes you are right, but that function works ok only in places which are quite open, which crowded cities with loads of skyscrapers are kinda struggling.

[xpost]

Best episode of 5. Saw it in my nexus one :-P

[monkeyruler90]

all hail google and the nexus one

[thelaxplaya7]

This might be the best video yet!

[bolmedias]

...Epiosode...

[3002255]

greate phone!!! if it was in Russia, i'd buy it now

[SqrtNeg1]

Can't wait until it comes to Verizon.

[manolinp]

I want it in SPAINNNNNNNN!!!++

_;

[dzgndotinfo]

Extend it to New Zealand !

[epictechgeek]

getting it when it comes on verizon

[smarkyboy71]

Great! Many thanks for this perfect Mobile Phone! YES WE LOVE ANDROID!

[ratchamal]

Google hails

[haderhase]

please Google take this spot as a TV-Spot.

it's very cool...

[dharris007]

this should have been Google's Super Bowl commercial

[Uejji]

Seriously.  How many Nexus Ones could Google have sold with this video alone as a super bowl ad?

[VirginsEyeViewDotCom]

I know right. I want one so bad just by looking at this but I believe that Google is planning something. They have too. This phone is creating so much buzz without a commercial. Just Imagine what will happen when they do decide to do a commercial...GOOGLE FOREVER!!!!

[VirginsEyeViewDotCom]

You are so right. But I think we are going to see this on TV soon. This is the best phone ever. I just saw a video of the Iphone and the Nexus One makes it look so bland now. I want one sooooo bad but I cant afford one right now. When I watch this video it feels like my heart grows or something. I am so inspired by this phone and "commercial".

[nikolatoshkov]

Can't wait to be available in Europe :)

[breakdancfighta1]

@ogjbot Oh I see. Well that's gotta be simulated because the video doesn't even match up with the player - you can see a piece of the black box behind it in the upper left corner.

They're probably just trying to quickly show that it can upload to YouTube.

[carlitocarlucho]

they are giving us a sneak peak of the car dock ;) ... 1:09

[VirginsEyeViewDotCom]

Yo, that car dock look sick. I completely forgot about that. The Android is so robust than the Iphone. Apple better do something quick because I dont see myself getting an Iphone for a long time. Google will soon take the crown...

[death42er]

THE DROID HAS ONE TO

[soulwedgie]

must get nexus one. must get nexus one. great promo film. can't wait till mine arrives!

[breakdancfighta1]

@retlollol There aren't any flash videos in this...

[ogjbot]

0.:51 ... YouTube

[ogjbot]

It's even states it's HD as well...

[H4nfP3t3r]

Need this phone in Switzerland!

[smarkyboy71]

Es ist bald bei Digitec erhältlich:-), oder via E-Bay

[H4nfP3t3r]

Naja das bei Digitec ist Wucher xD

und EBay ist ein Risiko. Wenn ich schon jemanden Geld rein schiebe dann Google. Die können es im Kampf gegen China brauchen :p

[ogjbot]

Shweeet! :)

[gad69]

What a phone!!!!! It's just great!!!!!!!!

Quel téléphone!!!! Il est simplement super!!!!

[retlollol]

wait what? how is a flash embedded video being played in nexus one?

and thats not flash lite, it has way too good quality and performance for flash lite.

[ale0bello0pr]

Thank you Google <3

[francispelletier]

Nice !! great story to share. I wish it was available in Canada...

[StarlightMassacre]

you can buy one on ebay, and use it on wind mobile.
