Google Nexus S gets official

sir yuga, kelan kaya dito sa pinas yan? sana sa december din. hehehe. nagtataka aq dati bakit d tinawag na nexus two ito. ayaw kc ng samsung ang 2. hehehe.

I was expecting the price would be at the 30k range. :|

well at least the screen is different (curved)… not much of an upgrade to those already on Galaxy S and the N1 though

the price will be higher than 30k after taxes..

Only 16 GB of built-in storage space?? and no SD-card expansion – anak ng.. parang implementation ng Apple iPhone lang ah hehe, and 5mp camera whattaheck iPhone has 5mp camera too but i still want one because of the 4″ S-Amoled screen and pure unadulterated Gingerbread OS na walang halong skin skin ng mga handset carrier

old news na hahaha /jk

honeycomb announced! google is now showing a motorola tablet running on honeycomb!

i guess different manufacturers on showing off new iterations of android!

Nexus One – HTC
Nexus S – Samsung
Nexus Tab? – Motorola

@chris
yes kasi t-mobile to.. same with nexus one :)

$529 X 44 =~ 23K php + (tax depende sa state)

siguro 25K php…

yung mga may kakilala sa US pabili na!!!!

No SDcard slot. serious downfall.. mas ok pa no internal ram then may card slot!!!!

@whatif – lets not forget the tax.. around 7.5% so it comes out 570USD

@johnniee B – my thoughts exactly.. wondering if the 3G and HSDPA frequencies are the same as here..

@chris – i think the US has a different 3G and HSDPA frequencies compare to the Philippines, but thinking that Nexus One has reached us Filipinos, so they might be producing units that’s compatible to any 3G or HSDPA frequencies around the world. usually Europe & the Philippines has the same 3G & HSDPA frequencies, if i’m not mistaken.

is this going to be available in pinas?..
Regarding sa price may nabasa ko it will be around 25-27 k same price ng htc desire z,?…
Tsaka parang galaxy s lan toh so pag may galaxy s ka na just stick w/it just w8 for 2.3…

..w8 q answer niyo..
Tnx alot in advance

Tsaka hindi ba parang dust-prone itong phone na ‘to? Hindi ba mali-liit na butas yung nasa likod? Contemplating between this and the Nexus One as a developer phone.

@chris and johnnyb
pag cellphone galing t-mobile sa US swak yan sa pilipinas saka sa europe. based on exp sa nexus one ko na tmob na vers. wala prob sa 3g etc… ATT phones although may signal ka pero baka wala 3G upto 2g lang. verizon and sprint asa pa walang mga sim yun kasi cdma.

for the prize sabi ko nga with tax papalo ng 25k
570(sabi mo) * 44 = ~ 25k ?

or iba rate ng peso mo? :) peace

@whatif
di naman kami nagtalo kng anong network dapat galing ang phone pag sa US binili, ang gusto lng namin malaman is “On what frequency does 3G here in the philippines operate”

@misterswabe
where not arguing about the quadband man, and we didn’t argue either about 3G/HSDPA, tanong lng naman ng original poster is compatible ba yung 3G/HSDPA dito sa atin, yan lang naman po.

salamat pa rin sa info, pero i do know what is “quadband”

There’s something wrong with the pacing of Android’s commercial release dates.

Kalalabas lang ng Android 2.2 (Froyo) nung November at ngayon, next week na lalabas and Android 2.3 (Gingerbread). Ano ba yan? Suddenly, yung binili mong “latest” last month e hindi na ngayon.

Pass na lang kaya tayo sa OS na to ngayon? Maghintayan na lang tayo at baka biglang lumabas and Android 3.0 next month.

looks great,hope I don’t wait six months to get the upgrade

@jay

its the os thats updating not the device…its a good thing that they always update, bad if your phone cant handle it

sayang hindi expandable ang storage. and hindi pa lahat ng models magkaka super AMOLED (http://www.engadget.com/2010/12/08/nexus-s-will-drop-super-amoled-in-favor-of-super-clear-lcd-in-ru/)

sorry N8-00 pa din me guyz..^_^

ah yung galaxy s magkakaroon din ng updated version ng 2.3 version ng android?

gusto ko talaga samsung galaxy s pero mas type ko yung giorgo armani version kasi mas maganda ang looks. sana magkaron na nun. powerful talaga sgs

actually it’s around $571 (529+8%tax). I had a friend buy it for me in LA.

It’s a little weird how they said it was “unlocked” but when i got it outside of the box, it wouldn’t work with our networks here in the Philippines.

I asked a friend to unlock it for me, been using it for almost week na.

so far, it does what it says and i’m happy with how it is.

why spend your money with this expensive handset. SMART will be releasing the IDEOS phone units from HUAWEI this February 2011, the price would range from PHP 5000-6000.. it runs ANDROID 2.2 (Froyo).. i’ve watched several unboxing and reviews and its excellent compared with other handsets from known manufacturers running android.. hope SMART will stick to the price they’ve announced..

@elijah – sir masyado na pong mababa yung specs ng ideos na sinasabi niyo. 500 mhz lang poa ang core speed. tapos 256mb lang ang ram. malabo na po ma update. just my thoughts.

@reichnamjel

Ok naman so far. it’s pretty powerful. and usually what my friends notice is that it’s light in terms of weight!

I had problems with the batteries in the first few weeks because i did not turn of my internet (always online) and i did not deactivate background data… it only lasted for a measly 10hours (even with little talk time, and texting). but it reached a maximum of almost 2 days when i switched off these settings and used internet only when i needed it.

Overall im still very happy about it.

I heard 3G only works with T-mobile, you can use other carrier but you wont be able to access 3G on other networks. Is this true? You think it will not work on our local 3G carriers (Smart, Globe, Sun)?
