Nexus One Rocks with Gingerbread 2.3.4
Phone owned for more than a year

I have had my Nexus One from almost fisrt days it was publicised. The best phone I can recommend to anyone. Very good feel in hand, very good build quality, fast and responsive especially with Android 2.3.4 under the hood, OTA updates (I hope it will recieve Icecream Sandwich!)

Great Phone
Phone owned for less than a month

Over all the phone is great every one to buy this phone minimum one time in life.


It just gets better and better. Only thing im lacking is a front camera. size is perfect for a phone. if you want bigger screen get a Tablet. The Evo battery sucks because of its screen. By the way the nexus one is faster than evo

Great phone.
Phone owned for less than a year

With the nexus one being over a year old, it's still a high end phone out there. It comes unlocked when purchased with 3g speed for either T-mobile or AT&T. I have mine for AT&T and have owned this phone for about 6 months now, and it's been nothing but great. I've owned quite a few android phones, including this one before I went back to it. I had the captivate, but it wasn't the same to the nexus one, even when rooting it. I have mine rooted with CM7 and it's great. Improved battery life along with putting the phone to its true potential. It's not boring like an iPhone cause it's all the same thing, even with jailbreaking it. With all the high end smartphones requiring a 2 year contract, you can get this one for about 100$ more and it'll still be up to your standards with the high end smart phones out there today. It may not be new, but it's a phone directly from google, so if they plan on having another update pass gingerbread for this one, then it'll be first in line to receive the update(it should be). Overall, if you keep it stock, I would rate it a 9. When you root it, it would be rated a 10 in my opinion. I hope this review helps out some people deciding to get this phone!:)
