Unlocked Samsung Galaxy Nexus


Good: the Samsung Nexus Messier brings many new features very welcome with ice cream sandwich. The design is strong, the screen is pisteltyjen and is an excellent internal performance.

Bad: the ice cream has only eliminated the learning curve of some Android in some respects, to recreate in others. There was some static conversations and other Samsung Galaxy, Nexus Galaxy feels quite fragile.

Bottom line: the Samsung Galaxy big step for the relationship between Android one, but not great. Be chaos, ice cream sandwiches, and without it, the relationship between a Galaxy robot ", as well as the exciting device of admiration.

Samsung Galaxy relationship

Note: Although the first Verizon Wireless in the United States on the Nexus of the Galaxy comes from countries of the initiation of this review reflects the unlocked GSM version. In addition, a specific assessment, when we have a game review.

Mobile phones are sometimes forever changed the mobile industry. If the project, or both. These rare phone you can hang up in the blog world and returns something and something new. Those phone Samsung Galaxy node as a curriculum innovation and the occasional non-AWE picas but as a gymnast has damaged only the high bar.

Now, before you e-mail an angry letter to send us a letter, consider this: absolutely, ice cream Sandwiches (ICS on the Internet) is not much to clarify the Android and the age of majority. When we saw that the first Google shows a list of function infinite last month in Hong Kong, looked slim, glossy ICS and the fantastic.

Now that we have in our hands, a warm, but also, of course, hot mess, and approves new features is the interface is nice, but it is messy, disjunctive and extremely complex. So, promoting the great step forward in the robot, Android is not all the problems.

Store the operating system, and it remains an attractive and well known. The show is rich and profile are clear, but the device detects design students at the Samsung Galaxy. Similarly, although the features are impressive, nothing outside of ICS to blow both for yourself. Fortunately, so far, excellent call quality was the internal network and T-Mobile.

Design
A few years ago, in the design of the light of your phone with Nokia we are used to build the next joke each model the distortion in the same document. This day we are likely to be applied to this joke Samsung. The company started to Do last year because many of them looked very similar hardware. the Galaxy In fact, many of the precedents, in particular between the Galaxy last year with the Nexus product (not the name of the device, if the Galaxy).

You want to see the same dark color, the edges of the image Cone and "distribution", which assumes that the path to be followed in the head. The headset is great (5.33, 2.67 cm cm length), it may be too much to deal with some users. However, Samsung, be able to do all blank, which cut into very thin (0.35 inch).

Very impressive, but yes like other mobile phone Samsung Galaxy before, was also very fragile in the hands of even one gram of 4.75. Here again, we unfortunately will have to be very concerned, should not be released again on hard surfaces. The case is an option, but at the phone. Equipment "Hyperskin" on back cover adds texture, but is there any material Kevlar is Droid the Motorola Razr.

Right, you'll find the button control is locked and metal is used for future contact, three Dock accessory. The volume rocker on the left side of the bottom edges of the micro-USB charging/sync port and a 3.5 mm headset jack, we've decided to plug in different places. The camera lens and Flash include session.

Interface and Display
Measures in this field, the home screen to display only 4 in cale programmable 4,65 which appears at the bottom of the shortcut bar, use the regulation tray (tray in some but not all, Interior displays). And in this way screen smartphone, but not quite big enough to share an Internet connection. ICS can explain.

If another device is link affects link one pure Android Galaxy interface not the manufacturer or carrier skin. This is great for users and developers as it allows Android developers really glory glow with. fences "Developer options will love" from the main menu provides access to features. as shown in the CPU to determine the background process limitations and activation of visual feedback for touchscreen True if user customization options, in addition to Android.

Although we hope that it will be different, but the communication Galaxy we saw Android/phones laggy other small effect. You really know the here/scrolling list. Better than the previous models seen on such a way that it, or it makes/' t destroy touchscreen interface, but you may notice differences/iOS or Windows Phone 7 traffic. You can resize, brightness, backlight and change fonts. The show has an accelerometer that can be turned off, proximity Sensor and light sensor.

Below you will find three touch-sensitive controls to move backward in the menu or function to return to the home screen and opens the list of recently showed video footage. Yes, you lose the dedicated search button to Android phones, but that that Galaxy Nexus, inherited from the cell (the search box is available in almost all native app and start screen). And in hundreds of integrated circuits, these controls will disappear in some applications to light three points, until you use them again. What and more controls to rotate 90 degrees when you just phone/orientation.

Otherwise, the physical controls in front of the phone is not. However, I noticed you glowing light, are you a "call and receive e-mail messages or messages. In addition, that it would be very soothing, we with satisfaction that exist because it was a big omission on the part of the link.

On-screen keyboard is a full-width view, you are using in portrait or landscape mode. The main screen has three lines of alphabetic keys with rated just above key. In the bottom row in the key space center huge there/tapa with voice activated only on the left side (when you type your e-mail address/"key takes place @"). Information you need by clicking on the keyboard, more punctuation marks and numbers, but the keyboard is spacious and easy to use. Unfortunately, does not accept the scan. Dial pad shows huge numbers, but little text.

Basic Characteristics
Size is limited to the available memory, the phone book. Each entry, phone numbers, and e-mail and Internet addresses, company name and title, handle more than one field, a birthday, Nickname, URL and notes for a while, chat. Edit contacts, groups, and in case of a double. Unfortunately, each with a corresponding 25 polyphonic ringtones which are a nonobvious. individual contact, you define a profile "card, you must open" song in the menu to confirm all calls to voicemail or send.

Of course, the Galaxy different needs on the nexus one would expect from a Smartphone, like text and multimedia messaging, email (Gmail and not two) synchronization, Synchronize your calendar (and Google), calculator, alarm clock and news and weather widget. The ship also Bluetooth 2.0 (A2DP), Wi-Fi (802.11 a/b/g/n), download manager and File synchronization, mass storage device, PC and USB. Speaker-independent voice commands allow you to do everything with just your voice. They work well until she spoke clearly and use the phone without a lot of background noise.

Feature and Google apps
Google fans a lot of Google apps and services used and studied. The phone does not differ, but they are worthy of the ancestors of the Nexus. There is Google Talk, YouTube, Google search (vocals), Google, Google, Google latitude + Google Maps Navigation, Google Messenger and location.
Maps gets also a little more treatment 3D with ICS. Zoom in enough far (with two fingers) and you can see buildings start to get some 3D-shape. Drag two fingers across the screen in the slope of the screen for a better view.

GPS features too, although I was a bit manually the questions GPS, Samsung Galaxy revealed by previous devices. Find a new block of the offices of CNET, which is a standard test. The second test, but it shows exactly our position. For the best experience you should switch to the Wi-Fi and GPS location feature in the settings menu. Nexus gyro compass and the Galaxy is a branch, and if it is iPhone: it supports real-time voice turn-by-turn directions out of the box. Built-in Barometer can partially thank; short of his goal of duty-free Galaxy helps GPS LOCK.

Experience of Google, you have the freedom to use any application you want through the Android market. In addition, you can use-n titles, too. Keep in mind that the link has only galaxies 32 GB of internal memory. Yes, it is much, but we say "just" for lack of Nexus Galaxy external memory card.

Camera, video, and music
Camera 5 Mpixels double primary, but at the same time, Firefox 3 Mpixels double, 1.3 Mpixels double camera, qvga and vga. Also, view photos and video calls to the 1.3-megapixel camera.

Guns, but not for the control of the Fair (more options are available in the gallery) in a series of options for editing pictures you can find the digital zoom. Face detection white balance options, set the beam of the geo tagging for four to seven and four in the "scene" (night-time activity. Sunset and a year and a half) is a powerful Flash is back. Washing dark environment color each time you can give your car or keeping Flash off of all.

ICS-(I) includes a number of improvements to the camera, which we will discuss in more detail. We are talking about here, but he is not the shutter lag is great. In fact, when he took the first photograph, we do not understand the shutter closes. Believe us when we say that it really fast. Nice job, Google.

Interesting and useful to our eyes is the complete set of editing tools integrated in Windows Photo Gallery: cropping, red eye, the brightness of the face, correction, rotate, flip and sharpness. There are also effects that can be added as the heat, saturation and squid. A Total of 16 colors and typography effects and four other possibilities of adaptation of the lighting. Google could easily stop and continue to allow manufacturers to add your own filters, but on board editing makes the Android operating system, which itself is much stronger.

The camcorder shoots clips in three resolutions: 480 p, 720 p HD 1080p and HD.You can adjust the white balance, you can use the flash as a recording of light and ICS added zoom any registration and various intervals chronophotographies of 1.5 seconds to 10 seconds. Exactly how much you can record will depend on the available memory.

If you really want to be creative in the sense that some of the camera a couple of popkultuƙe add to your video. Some settings, nothing but fun Sun, disco and the effects of space to add a background to your art – other strange and weird. For example, the effect of the "big nose" on the topic of a big nose, "Bigmouth" will be the same for dollars "and" big eyes "," may your friend is a little annoying bug eye directly from the Lady Gaga-video.
