- jrockway 16y agoIndeed. The "with Google" mark carries meaning; it means you are getting AOSP (the consistent version of Android that is actually usable), instead of the handset's bastardized version of Android. (HTC Nonsense, Moto-durrr, etc.)
- buro9 16y agoUnless you're in the UK where Vodafone have delayed the OTA update so that they can fiddle with it first. It turns out that the Google mark really is meaningless. Myself and most of my friends who I recommended the Nexus One to on the basis of first updates and vanilla software, we are now all running CM6.
- SandB0x 16y agoThis isn't quite true. For example, the fairly new HTC Droid Incredible has Sense and the "with Google" stamp. Also the Motorola Droid X. Maybe it's not the majority of phones then, but my point still stands that the stamp is fairly meaningless.
