@sciences8 Hehe... The curved screen "pentile I think" isn't as tough as the gorilla glas on the S2. But then again, they'll probably put pentile on the S3 as well. They are also giving the S3 a different multitasking and they also promised PC capacities... I hope we can trust them though:P
Just tested going back to Youtube after opening another app. It paused the video and had to reload, but started off from where I left it. With 4G, the loading time is near instantaneous so I don't see how that could be a problem.
The guy who headed webOS development now works for google as co-lead developer for Android. Sorry son, but Android took best multitasking software with ICS.
@yodude010 The apps doesn't restart. It starts the video from where you ended it. I have the Galaxy Nexus and I can run games, youtube and a lot of stuff without them getting restarted. Though I'd rather have Quad Core smartphone soon just for the speed. Hehe... And Galaxy Nexus feels even more plastic than S2. Which is irritating...
Still feels way better than my old Incredible. I actually don't mind the build quality that much. As long as it resists scratches and drops, that's all I need.
@airfoemoe What the fuck is wrong with you, judging people based on what phone they use? If people like the iPhone let them be, it's a subjective matter. It's not factually inferior.
@DontPickMePlease It's hardware is weaker, the OS is more restrictive, and they do not have 4g.Don't be stupid, most of the crazed lunatic iphone fanatics talk about if we do not have one we are just jealous or poor. Our phones cost the same! It's not like they ever tried android, they judge the product without ever using, so fuck them. They are holding technology back.
Some people (some completely sane people that aren't "so fucking stupid," and are probably less ignorant than you are) don't give a shit what phone they have as long as it's a smartphone, it looks good, and it can access their Facebook.
The lunatic iPhone fanatics ARE pretty ignorant and narrow-minded, almost as much as you. Stop pigeon-holing iPhone users; there are the "casual" and the "extreme junkie."
@DontPickMePlease They should care, they could have just got a windows phone 7 or a android. No need to support scumbags like apple, they hate progress. You need to stop pretending like it's just a phone purchase. Remember when adobe was developing flash for mobile? Yea they stopped because apple refused too many times. It's a shame too.
@airfoemoe The problem is IT IS JUST A FUCKING PHONE PURCHASE. Don't go around generalizing people's behavior BASED ON THE PHONE THEY FUCKING HAVE. It's. Just. A. Phone.
@DontPickMePlease Yea a terrible one at that. Iphones hold technology back, be vocal or sit there while this awful technology hold us back. fuck that shit.
@airfoemoe They're not holding technology back. We have 5" Android phones, and Android phones with 1.2GHz dual-core processors (very soon quad), and 4.3" Android phones with resolutions you'd find on a 15" Mac, and Android phones with both up to date interiors AND a full QWERTY keyboard (myTouch 4G Slide and Droid 4, even though the Droid 4 has a locked bootloader and no plans for ICS....fuck Motorola)....if the iPhone was holding technology back then EVERY phone would be like the iPhone.
@DontPickMePlease Well adobe gave up on flash for mobile because of the multiple attempts to get it on ios failed, apple's stubbornness killed the adobe flash fun for other devices because software devs see ios as the profit machine for apps (for now). Also, The Droid 4 is getting ICS (it's on the verizon website), so you're misinformed. Moto made their recent phones to not have swappable batteries, seems like Apple influenced that. Google bought Motorola, so their kinks should be ironed out.
I just got my galaxy nexus and love it. i must say switching from a iphone to it was fucking awesome. i always though android sucked dick till i got one. only thing that is surprising is its made of plastic. i miss the stainless steel.
I really don't know why they call it "multi-tasking." Multi-tasking is when you have 2 or more applications open at the same time in front of you--like watching a movie and having a Facebook tab open at the same time on your computer. This is just having an application run, in paused mode, in the background. No mobile OS will ever have multi-tasking because it's too impractical to have 2 or more applications open at the same time on one small 4.3" screen.
@Uzerc That's pretty cool. You mean you could, for example, run a game in one "home screen," switch to the next for IM...and you'd be getting messages WHILE your game is playing in the background?
This feature is available even on an entry level android phone. Thanks to the Free App Smart Taskbar. Though it doesn't have the Eye Candies, it has some extra features (switching to fav. app or widget or any app at ANY point
@screaminghobos exactly. i just wish he made it a bit more webOS like since hp probably wouldn't have done anything about it. with android the multitasking is all dependent on you knowing where everything is. with webOS you just put things in neat little stacks much like an actual desk or organizer.
Will the 'swipe to kill' be present on all ICS devices or is it a Galaxy Nexus thing? If the phone has Touchwiz or motoblur or HTC sense built on top of the stock android, what then? I only ask because that was FUCKING AMAZING!!
I had the iPhone for 2 years and switched to Android. From the looks of it, the iPhone UI hasn't changed at all...I mean, it was cool in 2007 but we all know how the rest goes
i was hoping all from you google and you come with this shittye fragmentated java laggy buggy batteryusesless android, android will be the new symbian only masses but not the real thing
apple has quality.#1 customer satisfaction/those who say apple doesnt let u customize must never heard about jailbreak.remember peepz,iphone is way better than any other smartphone,reason being quality,droid phones become slow with time,there battery back,processing speed all goes low,bbut in apple.its all same.
Iphone is just a new nokia...easy for kids to tap on apps... nothing special i had it...boring..and notification bar? I wonder where they ot that from
@ConflickerWorm Here's hoping the non-restrictive case (ie you can open it) allows us to upgrade the battery in the future. Maybe Samsung will release better batteries we can buy at a nice price?

I should be getting mine in 3 days. So far I only have one complaint without having using it extensively Google, what were you thinking with that app launcher button???? It looks terrible and out of place in my opinion. How about some sort of 3d cube or something??
@FugazStar That's not my point, weather its a ad, or tutorial, apple has better marketing, yes this a how to but still watching this doesn't make consumers really want it, it doesn't give the phone the "WOW THAT'S COOL" Look that it deserves, its just something android can work on in order to get people how are new to android hooked...
@justin76pa I'm glad Android doesn't have to have a prissy little bitch on it's customer base anyway. Go critique how someone's shit stinks when it's obvious your's doesn't. While you're at it, critique how this phone has only 5mp and how you're not impressed.
Then critique me for pointing out how you make feminine comments and sound like a prissy bitch. Fuck you.
@GodDamnit7711 So you're working behind the counter of McDonald's. Got it. That is rough.
However, it doesn't change the truth; the Android user interface is ugly. Ice Cream sandwich has made some major improvements, but the UI needs alot of work.
@justin76pa :) I'm glad you need to implement the use of a strawman fallacy so you can justify your prissy bitchness.
The "truth" is a matter of opinion in this case but I don't expect you to realize this. Now, go find an Apple phone and masturbate on it cause it's obvious your a fag. You probably have no life, your probably ugly as hell, and you have probably gotten your lunch money punked from you plenty of times.
@GodDamnit7711 The distorted, psychotic thoughts have left your mind and entered the real world for all to see. Careful, you're exposing yourself to everyone and it is quite disturbing.
@justin76pa hmm I think it looks better than ios ..which is just an ugly screen full of app boxes...better looking than blackberries os as well...with 150 million+ users i'm sure there doing something right.
@frankliu532 It is definitely better looking than the Blackberry OS and seems to be more user friendly, but I am not sold on whether it looks better than iOS. However, as an overall OS, functionality included, appears to be better than iOS.
@justin76pa im sorry but how can you like the fake "real world textures" on ios? Its not sleek and looks cartoonish. The black and blue high contrast ui on a amoled screen like the nexus is far more elegant and classy than ios.
@frankliu532 You're right. People who like Android, like the ability to modify aspects of the OS and customize its look. I want to avoid that. I want my phone to be fast without losing much in the way of battery life. The funny thing is, everyone who has attacked me, assumes I am an iPhone user. LOL I'm not.
Windows Phone is tops! I own a first generation Windows Phone, the Dell Venue Pro, which runs WP7.5 (7720).
P.S. Thanks for not being one of the hateful responders.
@justin76pa i agree, i am an android user, but i wish i have a wp with me together with my android, wp is for you to be efficient, android is for you to be all out, and iOS is just for you to be cool..
@justin76pa in what way is android 4.0 ugly? The fact that the ui doesn't look like a toy like ios with its "real world textures". I'm sorry but high resolution wood textures do not look good on a phone ui. The high contrast black and blue on ics coupled with a amoled screen is elegant and beautiful.
@farhan007 The AMOLED screen is very nice. Was testing one the other day. The home screen reminds me of the Blackberry homescreen. Yes, there are differences like the animated backgrounds in ICS, but the icons and menu at the bottom is very RIMish. However, what DID impress me was the speed. Very fast OS.
@GodDamnit7711 Did you really put an apostrophe in "yours?" You seem like guy who thinks being smart means you're an ugly, anti-social nerd/geek. I'm sorry that you're dumb, and are jealous of people that are smart and try to put them down. Screaming that someone is nerd makes you look really stupid.
@ChrisKornerz Haha! A you're one of those prissy grammar people huh? Yup, I do put people down who put me down. It's natural for me. You're making yourself look really stupid.
@GodDamnit7711 I love how everyone you talk to is a prissy bitch, which probably makes you one as well. He didn't put you down either, he posted a comment and you replied saying you're a prissy bitch.
i'm sorry, the implicit requirement for users to all be on Google+ is annoying... does it integrate with other platforms or are they really after world domination?
I think that google took notification center and pretty much everything that the iPhone 4s has to offer, google is trying to pass it as there own idea like you swipe down from the top to bring up the notification center on the google phone but apple came up with that already it's called IOS 5
@1998Kahn Are you actually this stupid? Android has had pull-down notifications since 2008, when the T-Mobile G1 was released. Apple copied that feature straight from Android . Silly sheep.
@1998Kahn Your comment honestly made me laugh out loud. The lack of knowledge people have who state false information with such confidence, just amazes me..
@1998Kahn lol like multitask- oh wait android had that before, what about notific-? oh wait android had that too, Dual co-? nope 1080p video recording? umm,...wait, what was your argument again?
@Alien5p trust me, you don't. i had an android and its cool in the ideal world, but the iPhone is easier to use and also has maps. and no one uses google plus
@chemicalashes i don't know what that means. google just doesn't have the formula to make a truly great HARDWARE-BASED product. the search engine and youtube are great, but check out some of the reviews of their android phones. they're not so great, whereas the iPhone 4 was #1 in customer satisfaction
@GUMMSHOW The iPhone is #1 in customer satisfaction because their users don't know any better. I don't know if you've seen the samsung "next big thing" ad with the iphone junkies waiting in line for their 4S that was already behind the curve before it even came out, but youtube it. The top tier Android superphones have everything the iPhone has and more, except a music download service (but Google Music is coming soon). Hardware? Android had dual-core phones a year before Apple.
@bumbly1 The iPhone is #1 in customer satisfaction because when someone has a problem with their phone, Apple fixes it. Meanwhile, I'm stuck with a Nexus One that can't make it through a day without a problem, and Google says to call HTC for support, and HTC says to call Google. Android phones need better harware because their operating system is not optimized like iOS.
@ThechosenDemon To reconnect to a 3G signal, for example, if have to enter the hidden diagnostics menu (dial *#*#4636#*#*), reset the antenna, and re-enter my carrier address. It takes about 10 minutes, and it's something I do multiple times a day. I've never actually owned an iOS device myself.
@ThechosenDemon Wow, I can't believe I didn't think of trying that before researching the complete inner workings of my phone to find the most obscure solution. You sir, are a GOD of tech support. Next time, you should start your advice with either: "Is it plugged in?" or "Did you turn it on?"
@ThechosenDemon Plain English: your suggestion would be the first thing any slightly competent person would try. Since it doesn't help in this particular situation, the solution is a more complicated process found through further research.
@CalenJones dude, maybe that's just because you somehow screwed up your APN settings.. happened to me when i used those widget app that toggles 2G/3G settings by modifying your APN and stuff.. if all else fails, just do a factory reset.. or contact your carrier, since you said about re-entering your carrier address..
oh, btw, that 4636 spells "INFO" in your keyboard.. nice, right? :)
@bayusuputra1302 I had don't multiple factory reset, and every reset option in the boot loader. The Android OS was updated a few times, and the problem persisted. Now I've loaded Ice Cream Sandwich onto it and the antenna works fine. So what's a good explanation?
@CalenJones hhmm, i am not really sure, then.. are you rooted? if yes, maybe there are some connectivity apps that you accidentally delete and the OS update may not bring that back? or maybe you are the unlucky few to get lemon copy.. but if now you have the ICS in your Nexxus One (which is great i think) and the problem is resolved, then there's should be nothing to worry about anymore, right? anyway, Nexus One should be waaaay out of warranty by now, so there's nothing to lose when you root :)
@ThechosenDemon That's only half true. Features on iOS are either "spoon fed" or not available at all.
For example, the 3G data connection setting you guys are talking about hasn't been available on iOS until version 3 or so (that was the last iOS version I used, I don't know whether they've made it available in the mean time).
@CalenJones Again, at least on Android, every problem has a solution. iOS on the other hand either works for you or it doesn't.
If you need a particular setting or feature that Apple doesn't allow, you're lost. And no, Apple will not fix it for you. They will tell you that they know best how you should use your phone and if that doesn't work for you, learn to use it "differently" (i.e. the way Apple wants you to).
@drphysx For some reason that doesn't sound like a good defence. Say I wasn't a technical person with this particular problem? Who would fix it? Would a technician told me that if I want to use my phone I'd have to perform this procedure multiple times a day? No, they would fix it. Google and HTC denied 3G antenna problems with the Nexus One, and never presented a solution - I made my own. So you're saying that Android is awesome because when the company abandons you, it's not 100% hopeless.
@CalenJones and i don't think that's an antenna problem.. maybe you got a lemon? i have never actually heard from any review or tech news that the nexus one has antenna problem.. even my friend's nexus one still going strong after he bought it during the launch in my country.. more like a software problem to me..
@bumbly1 "The iPhone is #1 in customer satisfaction because their users don't know any better"
It says a lot about you that you're insecure enough to insult people, in order to justify your technology purchases. It isn't a war, these are phones (and yes, i've owned both android and iOS devices). No amount of snooty adolescent posturing is going to change that these are just phones. Grow up.

@justin76pa I'm glad Android doesn't have to have a prissy little bitch on it's customer base anyway. Go critique how someone's shit stinks when it's obvious your's doesn't. While you're at it, critique how this phone has only 5mp and how you're not impressed.
Then critique me for pointing out how you make feminine comments and sound like a prissy bitch. Fuck you.

@justin76pa :) I'm glad you need to implement the use of a strawman fallacy so you can justify your prissy bitchness.
The "truth" is a matter of opinion in this case but I don't expect you to realize this. Now, go find an Apple phone and masturbate on it cause it's obvious your a fag. You probably have no life, your probably ugly as hell, and you have probably gotten your lunch money punked from you plenty of times.

@frankliu532 It is definitely better looking than the Blackberry OS and seems to be more user friendly, but I am not sold on whether it looks better than iOS. However, as an overall OS, functionality included, appears to be better than iOS.

@justin76pa im sorry but how can you like the fake "real world textures" on ios? Its not sleek and looks cartoonish. The black and blue high contrast ui on a amoled screen like the nexus is far more elegant and classy than ios.

@justin76pa well it is personal preference. lol I just find the iphone way too simple, some people like it some people hate it.

@frankliu532 You're right. People who like Android, like the ability to modify aspects of the OS and customize its look. I want to avoid that. I want my phone to be fast without losing much in the way of battery life. The funny thing is, everyone who has attacked me, assumes I am an iPhone user. LOL I'm not.
Windows Phone is tops! I own a first generation Windows Phone, the Dell Venue Pro, which runs WP7.5 (7720).

@justin76pa in what way is android 4.0 ugly? The fact that the ui doesn't look like a toy like ios with its "real world textures". I'm sorry but high resolution wood textures do not look good on a phone ui. The high contrast black and blue on ics coupled with a amoled screen is elegant and beautiful.
farhan007 1 month ago
@farhan007 The AMOLED screen is very nice. Was testing one the other day. The home screen reminds me of the Blackberry homescreen. Yes, there are differences like the animated backgrounds in ICS, but the icons and menu at the bottom is very RIMish. However, what DID impress me was the speed. Very fast OS.

@chemicalashes i don't know what that means. google just doesn't have the formula to make a truly great HARDWARE-BASED product. the search engine and youtube are great, but check out some of the reviews of their android phones. they're not so great, whereas the iPhone 4 was #1 in customer satisfaction
GUMMSHOW 1 month ago
@GUMMSHOW The iPhone is #1 in customer satisfaction because their users don't know any better. I don't know if you've seen the samsung "next big thing" ad with the iphone junkies waiting in line for their 4S that was already behind the curve before it even came out, but youtube it. The top tier Android superphones have everything the iPhone has and more, except a music download service (but Google Music is coming soon). Hardware? Android had dual-core phones a year before Apple.

@bumbly1 The iPhone is #1 in customer satisfaction because when someone has a problem with their phone, Apple fixes it. Meanwhile, I'm stuck with a Nexus One that can't make it through a day without a problem, and Google says to call HTC for support, and HTC says to call Google. Android phones need better harware because their operating system is not optimized like iOS.

That's only because you don't know how to properly use Android OS. Your still used to iOS where everything is spoon fed to you like a baby.

@ThechosenDemon To reconnect to a 3G signal, for example, if have to enter the hidden diagnostics menu (dial *#*#4636#*#*), reset the antenna, and re-enter my carrier address. It takes about 10 minutes, and it's something I do multiple times a day. I've never actually owned an iOS device myself.

Menu->settings->wireless and networks-> data connection.

@ThechosenDemon Wow, I can't believe I didn't think of trying that before researching the complete inner workings of my phone to find the most obscure solution. You sir, are a GOD of tech support. Next time, you should start your advice with either: "Is it plugged in?" or "Did you turn it on?"

@ThechosenDemon Plain English: your suggestion would be the first thing any slightly competent person would try. Since it doesn't help in this particular situation, the solution is a more complicated process found through further research.
CalenJones 1 month ago
@CalenJones dude, maybe that's just because you somehow screwed up your APN settings.. happened to me when i used those widget app that toggles 2G/3G settings by modifying your APN and stuff.. if all else fails, just do a factory reset.. or contact your carrier, since you said about re-entering your carrier address..
oh, btw, that 4636 spells "INFO" in your keyboard.. nice, right? :)
bayusuputra1302 2 weeks ago
@bayusuputra1302 I had don't multiple factory reset, and every reset option in the boot loader. The Android OS was updated a few times, and the problem persisted. Now I've loaded Ice Cream Sandwich onto it and the antenna works fine. So what's a good explanation?
CalenJones 2 weeks ago
@CalenJones hhmm, i am not really sure, then.. are you rooted? if yes, maybe there are some connectivity apps that you accidentally delete and the OS update may not bring that back? or maybe you are the unlucky few to get lemon copy.. but if now you have the ICS in your Nexxus One (which is great i think) and the problem is resolved, then there's should be nothing to worry about anymore, right? anyway, Nexus One should be waaaay out of warranty by now, so there's nothing to lose when you root :)
bayusuputra1302 2 weeks ago
@ThechosenDemon That's only half true. Features on iOS are either "spoon fed" or not available at all.
For example, the 3G data connection setting you guys are talking about hasn't been available on iOS until version 3 or so (that was the last iOS version I used, I don't know whether they've made it available in the mean time).
drphysx 1 month ago
@CalenJones Again, at least on Android, every problem has a solution. iOS on the other hand either works for you or it doesn't.
If you need a particular setting or feature that Apple doesn't allow, you're lost. And no, Apple will not fix it for you. They will tell you that they know best how you should use your phone and if that doesn't work for you, learn to use it "differently" (i.e. the way Apple wants you to).
drphysx 1 month ago 3
@drphysx For some reason that doesn't sound like a good defence. Say I wasn't a technical person with this particular problem? Who would fix it? Would a technician told me that if I want to use my phone I'd have to perform this procedure multiple times a day? No, they would fix it. Google and HTC denied 3G antenna problems with the Nexus One, and never presented a solution - I made my own. So you're saying that Android is awesome because when the company abandons you, it's not 100% hopeless.
CalenJones 1 month ago
@CalenJones and i don't think that's an antenna problem.. maybe you got a lemon? i have never actually heard from any review or tech news that the nexus one has antenna problem.. even my friend's nexus one still going strong after he bought it during the launch in my country.. more like a software problem to me..

It says a lot about you that you're insecure enough to insult people, in order to justify your technology purchases. It isn't a war, these are phones (and yes, i've owned both android and iOS devices). No amount of snooty adolescent posturing is going to change that these are just phones. Grow up.
