As a point of disagreement, coming from the Nexus One, other than the comment about the phone feeling a bit cheap due to the plastic body, everything else on the phone seems fantastic.
The screen is beautiful, responsive, and I don't see any fishbowl effects. The curve of the screen is actually really nice because it both makes it easier to reach the top of the screen and makes it noticeably more comfortable when making calls. The colors on the screen are amazing: the black notification bar even matches the black housing so well that it literally looks like the notification icons are displayed on the plastic shell rather than the screen itself.
To me, the Nexus S is noticeably faster than the Nexus One, in both software and network speed, and I rarely notice any jitters. I've made plenty of calls with the phone already and have never had the dialog error he describes. All of the hardware buttons work perfectly fine for me, so if he does indeed have a broken phone, that shouldn't be a knock against the Nexus S itself, only Samsung. And how is lacking tech support (which is par for the course with Google-designed phones) being listed under "buggy"?
- jdp23 16y agoAgreed. I'm very impressed with the screen, and haven't had any problems with the buttons. I had been trying out a myTouch (also Android-based) and like the Nexus S a lot better.

- runjake 16y agoIt does? I think you'll have better luck reporting bugs and getting them resolved with the Nexus S than you would with say a Verizon Droid X where you've got to 1) figure out WHO you report the bug to as an end user, and 2) ensure it makes its way through the hall of fingerpointing so that it will get to an engineer who can fix it.
- clojurerocks 16y agoIt might be a defective phone. Plastic housings almost always have a cheap feel no matter how well they are built. I recently got a droid x which has a metal housing which is actually kind of nice as it just feels well built.
