Samsung Nexus S Smartphone: google samsung nexus s
The Samsung Nexus S is a surprisingly capable smartphone that is tightly bound to Google's social networking. However, that you can easily expand beyond due to its accessibility to the more than 200,000 apps available under the Android v2.3 operating system.
Perhaps more than any other smartphone, the Nexus S is not only thin and lightweight, but it is also curved to fit the contour of your face. Admittedly, this is a small feature, but if one is constantly on the phone, it is important. The Nexus S is driven by Samsung's propriety 1 GHz Hummingbird processor and comes equipped with 16 GB of non-expandable memory. This is an issue one might have to deal with if one opens multiple windows and while multitasking, as it can use up available memory. At 4.6 inches by 2.5 inches by.04 inches and that weighs in at 4.6 ounces the Nexus S is a lightweight.
Its brilliant four-inch display can be equipped with an app that splits the display into a QWERTY-like keyboard so that one can quickly type a message or email on the Super AMOLED touchscreen. Screen resolution is 800 by 400 pixels, giving the smartphone a crisp, sharp display. The Nexus S is equipped with two cameras, a front-facing VGA camera for videoconferencing. The rear-facing 5MP camera allows one to take DVD-quality video at 780 by 480 pixel resolution. The rear camera also reads "smart tags" that appear on nearly every item in a store (those tags are the odd-looking squares that almost appear as if they are barcodes gone awry).
The Nexus also works with what Samsung calls Near Field Communications devices (also called RFID devices) that might be included in a consumer product so that one is presented with all the information on pricing and discounting and can use the Nexus S as the basis for a purchase.
The Nexus S is a dual-band phone, operating on standard GSM frequencies of 850, 900, 1800 and 1900 MHz as well as 3G UMTS frequencies of 850, 1900 and 2100. GSM frequencies are primarily T-Mobile and AT&T supported. Interestingly, the Nexus S, through its 3G access, can host up to six other network devices, acting, if you will, as an active hotspot for others. It operates on WiFi standards 802.11 b/g/n, so it is compatible with public hotspots as well as older routers that serve many home enterprise networks. It is also compatible with Bluetooth 2.1 and makes it easy to sync other devices to it.
The Nexus S comes preloaded with a wide variety of Google-related apps including Google Voice, Google Mail, Google Maps, Google Search, Google Talk and YouTube. One can also find an app that will sync up the Nexus with Facebook as well as Google's recently release Circle+ social networking.
The Nexus S offers two Voice modes, one Google Voice, allows the smartphone to serve as the hub for six intelligent features such as call forwarding, blocking, screening, as well as offering transcripts. Voice Actions for Android allows one to hold the search button an simple dictate an email or text or initiate a search. The Nexus S is can easily update or sync up a calendar, phonebook or datebook with its built-in functionality or with an app you can download.
The Nexus is equipped with a standard USB 2.0. It also handled audio and understands MP3, WMA, and AAC/AAC+. Its video standards are MPEG4, H.264, and H.263. The Lithium-ion battery offers up to six hours of talk time, although one should remember that is cut if you take many videos.
Altogether, the Nexus S is a smartphone that is ergonomically designed for a great fit (curved) and that offers amazing abilities.
