I bought this Android phone to use worldwide. I will be traveling to SE Asia and I look forward to using the Google maps and all the great features, this phone combined with Google, offers. So far I am using it only with Wi-fi and I am very satisfied with it's operation. The camera is good both for still and video shooting.
Excellent is one best word for this phone. I was stunned with the performance of this phone and how fast it is. I have a load of Apps and still it is fast. the super fast cam is one of the best!!!! there is no more "saving..." . The clicks are instant and you can share it right away. A great phone with the Jelly Bean Andriod! The inbuild speakers are not that loud and it could have been better.
Have had my Nexus S for four months now and there's nothing better for efficiency and productivity - Thanks Samsung !! Looking forward to more in the smartphone range or perhaps even an upgrade !!!
This phone was great for the first three months. Then I started having problems with the speaker phone and the overall performance of the phone. I have now had this phone for about 8 months and for the last 2 my external sound has not worked. I can't hear my phone ring or when I get texts or notifications. I am finally able to upgrade another line on my plan and will be taking that phone.
-no birth dates in contacts, did anyone test the contacts before roll-out? (use gmail to put these in) -bad service and drooped calls (wife has HTC inspire, gets service where i don't) -no zoom for camera (how you miss this in testing, idk)
overall, i want to return the phone but am past my 30 days. I can overlook the birthdays and zoom. But missed calls and dropped calls are frustrating.
So I am looking to try to return it to samsung, as possibly they can send me one that gets better service. Still trying to find where I would do this on their site :(
Pros: Lightweight, comfortable size
Cons: Did not meet expectations, no contact birthday, no camera zoom, poor reception
I like the Nexus S so far, it dropped many times and thought the screen broke but when I picked it up I found the screen still as I bought it in excellent condition.the only thing I don't like about it is the battery doesn't hold the charge long enough but i think all smart phone same thing.
