One of the editor of Engadget, Joshua Topolsky has just got his hands on the upcoming Google Nexus One phone. They have captured a video walkthrough and lots of photographs of the Nexus One phone. It is much faster and similar to Motorola Droid. The phone is incredibly thin and sleek, and is little thinner than the Apple iPhone.
Features and Specifications of Google Nexus One phone
The Nexus One is built by HTC and will soon be sold by Google. This phone runs on Android 2.1 with a 1GHz of Snapdragon processor. It features a 3.7-inch screen with a display resolution of 480 x 800, comes with 4GB microSD card which can be expanded to 32GB, a 512MB of RAM and 512MB of ROM. It also includes the proximity sensor, accelerometer and a light sensor. This phone has a built-in 5 megapixel of camera with LED flash light. But, there is no multi-touch in the Nexus One (but I'm sure that the hack will soon be released to enable multi-touch on it).
The above specifications exactly matches those specifications that was leaked by Engadget few days ago. As reviewed by Engadget, the Nexus One is not different than the Motorola Droid, but they said that the design of the Google phone is much better and the device is somewhat faster than Motorola Droid. They also reported that the phone is fast and smooth, but it shutters very slightly when moving or shifting between home pages, otherwise running app and moving around the long list is super speedy.
All the details of UI are very similar in looks and feel, but there are some visual enhancements and minor tweaks in UI which includes interactive and animated live wallpapers, improved icons, increased number of home screen to five. There's also a bit of error in response and accuracy of keyboard which can be fixed by upgrading the device. Overall the Android 2.1 on Google phone seems to be much more improved and enhanced as compared to its predecessor.
Google Nexus One phone is expected to be launch on January 5 in an Android Press Conference arranged by Google in Mountain View, California. The unlocked device is expected to be available to buy for $530. All the photographs attached in this post are the courtesy of Engadget.
