This walk-thru of the Nexus One user interface demonstrates what Android 2.1 looks like on the Nexus One – and also shows that the phone is very real:
The specs are also now available and they are impressive – a fast processor (1GHz Snapdragon) and a large screen (3.7 inches, 854 x 480 pixels):
- Nexus One test: faster, better screen than iPhone
- Nexus One full specs detailed, invite-only retail sales starting January 5th?
- Google Nexus One hands-on
The third article reveals:
- Thinner and lighter than the iPhone 3GS
- Same screen as the Droid (3.7 inches, 854 x 480 pixels)
- The Droid has a 550MHz Arm A8 (similar to iPhone). The Nexus One appears to be nearly twice as fast (1GHz Snapdragon).
- video backgrounds
- 5 megapixel camera
If Google’s planning on releasing this phone as their official Google phone, it’ll certify them as the premium Android phone brand out there right now. Even though it doesn’t have a hardware keyboard, it basically beats the hell out of the Droid in every single task that we threw at it. And face it, some people didn’t like the Droid’s keyboard because it was too flush and the keys were too unseparated with each other. N1’s onscreen keyboard felt fine, and the speedy processor made sure that each key was interpreted well.
