haha, I was rereading it, Its actually comical reading it for what I basically replaced everything apple and iphone with google and android. Really brings out the ridiculousness :)

I went from an iPhone to the MyTouch3G. I was a bit disappointed with the speed of the operating system and applications on it (thus why I've found myself here.) I own the N1 now and I can say I am completely happy with the device. The MyTouch3G didn't really touch me the way the iPhone did -- but the N1 is just fine.. I have no complaints.. I just need a local store to stock a case for it :)
[Nexus One General] bfspider:
pretty bias review, my lord..
[Nexus One General] SANTilt:
I think what BGR just did with that article is lose any semblance of credibility he may have had.

The article was completely unprofessional; biased, unscientific, angry, and just poorly written. Let him hang himself.

[Nexus One General] stewart1988:
Same here. Went straight to YouTube and watched some of the unboxing and first startup videos! I do like how you don't have to have a Sim Card in the phone now and can connect to WiFi straight away.

Most are unedited and some even compared speeds straight out of the box to their older phones/iPhones and you can straight away see the speed difference!

Just wish mine would hurry up!
[Nexus One General] ohgood:
edited bgr...

points:

1) icons aren't the same size

2) touch areas aren't the same size

3) touch events aren't consistent

4) 3-4 more paragraphs of fud, with apple bias

point 1: i hadn't noticed that, until he pointed it out. yes, they're different sizes. apparently it hadn't bothered me. now that i think about it, and look quite close at the screen, it still doesn't bother me.

point 2: i must have really big hands, or he has tiny, puny, elf-like hands (and other parts ?) so much that he has the precision of a stylus, and therefore notices differences in touch areas most humans cannot.

point 3: see point 2

point 4: i use apple products. love the ones i use. as far as android vs apple os, i'll take android. cool phones, choices, freedoms. i'm self aware. :)

aside the one dig about small body parts, i tried not to stoop to his low of bashing people, or mentioning non child-friendly material in the response.

Lol i didnt get what he was talking about either with the touch screen selection point thing for different apps.

[Nexus One General] stonedraider:
Hm... Why he didn't come up with such a article when the G1 was released?

Oh right, the Nexus One blows the 3GS away...

I don't understand why you have to hate something just because you are on the opposite "front". I am a Mac-user, a Android fan, i like the iPhone (i just don't want to own it). Is this really an exeption?

But all this technology blogs think different (oooh insinuation).
[Nexus One General] TonyHoyle:
No, you're not alone. I don't hate the iphone either.. it's a phone. Most of my friends have Nokias, LGs, etc. and I don't run around saying how great my phone is.

I don't get the whole war attitude that some sites have. OTOH when I was at school we had huge arguments about the Sinclair Spectrum vs Commodore 64 issue so maybe it's not so new.

I always figured that to be an intense amount of emotion. People would die for that black void. Maybe we need to hack into the subliminal messages sent out by that cold black screen, so everyone will quit crying about the things they don't immediately like in the Nexus One.
[Nexus One General] mark925:
Just like the comment I made on that video, he'd fit right in at Engadget or BGR.

Here's a review comparing the iPhone to the Nexus without having actually used the Nexus and using BGR as source material.

Iphone cult

I thought the same thing...engadgets review was terrible. gizmodos review was also terrible...boygeniusreport's report was terrible...It's just amazing how cultish iphone fanboys are:eek:.

Yet again, iphone is not geared towards the tech-savy...that is in its raw state without jail-breaking. Majority of iphone fanboys are old people who think they're found a new break through in technology or youth carrying their chihuahuas around. These people don't know how to question why their phones have software limitations, they just listen to "Mama-steve jobs":confused: and say yes, the way mama-jobs:confused: says to do it is the best and only way to do it.

I don't waste my time with such reviewers and such individuals...what works for them is what works for them...and likewise me.

At the end of the day, each individual has a relationship with their phone...love it or like it or hate it.

I'm going back to CNET after almost 2 years of ignoring that site. Engadget and the likes have shown their bias and i'm quiet disappointed :cool:
[Nexus One General] cheetah2k:
It just goes to show that simple things amuse simple minds. BRG, Engadget and Gizmodo are all the same.

Google have gone to great lengths to release a great product. I've only had my N1 for an hour, and I'm truely impressed.

Let me just say I was an apple fanboy, but now the tide is turning.

**************

If I had to summarise the key stand-out brilliant functions my HD2, 3GS and N1, they would look like this:

iPhone - Apps, there are so many apps!, 32Gb internal mem

HD2 - HD movies on that beautiful screen, very quick navigation

N1 - sophistocated sensual body, quick navigation

If I had to summarise the key disasters:

iPhone - Simple minded, boring, damn those scratches!

HD2 - Pity about that camera

N1 - none yet......
[Nexus One General] rr5678:
Quoted for truth.

This whole fanboy thing is getting ridiculous. NOBODY should be that attached to one product. Heck, I may have all Windows Mobile phones, but that doesn't mean that when someone says "I can't handle Windows", I should go...

"LIEK ZOMG (whatever phone OS goes here (iPhone/Android) ) SUCKS!!!ONEONE!11!"

All phone OS's have quirks. Phones have quirks.

(we are here to improve on that :p)

People need to get that thought into their thick skulls.

That website and the review......Just sad. So worked up over a phone he has to use profanity in his review. Just sad.
[Nexus One General] Fa7my:
Man you really made me laugh ... now that's a reviewer that is happy to make a fool out of himself :S

I'm a WinMo user.. I like the iPhone & the Android .. you don't have to be much biased towards one phone to the limit that you make a crab out of any other phones

Android is still version 2.1.. yet it's very "likable" .. it have that YOUNIQUE touch.. it's all about how you want it.. not how Apple wants it..

More positive words... from Kevin Rose:

[Nexus One General] JanetPanic:
I like my N1 but BGR does have a point or two in there. Most of it is ranting garbage, but he does have a few points.

The Market is still a mess. It takes experimentation to find a good <insert your app type of choice>. There has been one for every type I have looked for but it usually was not the first one I tried. The rating system helps but there is still a lot of noise.

I can not select text outside of fields since the N1 does not have a physical keyboard. This has actually proven to be a problem for me a few times.

And he does not even touch on the bluetooth stack (no voice dial from a headset is a problem and more personally no HID so I can't use an external keyboard)

I would not trade the N1 for any other phone out on the market right now but that does not mean it is perfect.
[Nexus One General] bouyark:
Read between the lines

For all the rant, negative bogs/comments coming from the bashing of the Nexus One, the response from the actual users have outnumbered them. Take a look at the comments from the Boy Genius, Engadget or any other negative "review" of the Nexus One and you will see users or potential users hitting back with facts and pointing out the weakness in these reviews.

These critics seems to have miss the point of the Nexus One.

Google isn't out to beat the iPhone with this phone or imply that it's better than the iPhone, it's out to outsell the iPhone with the Android platform. Google's just trying to shine light on one of the iPhone weakness (AT&T) a little bit and make sure anyone who wants a quality Android phone can get one that they can use with any carrier. The Nexus One won't be the final device from Google. I think Google is using every possible method to get Android phones into as many hands as possible so that they can start earning those location-based advertising dollars. I believe, there will be more Android phones sold than iPhone phones and that's all Google cares about here. It is good for the consumer when there is competition.

A decently balanced view from Ars Technica:

[Nexus One General] carnegie0107:
I can't believe how many iPhone V Nexus arguments there are on blogs and forums everywhere... There's something people need to realize: The Nexus One is not an "iPhone Killer." It's designed to be in a different category than the iPhone. iPhone is a multimedia phone with a lot of custom apps. It's designed to be extremely simple, and fun. The N1 may use a touchscreen and run Java-based apps, but it's a totally different aim. It's designed to be a multitasking, feature-rich, totally customizable powerhouse. I hate the iPhone for the same reason some people love it: the simplicity. It doesn't "do" ANYTHING, and that frustrates me. Total crap API, no customization, complete restriction... but iPhone users love how they don't have to think about it, it just works. Some people hate Android for the same reason we love it: the many, many layers of complex customization and power. It takes some thought and effort to set it up to be exactly what you want, and a complete moron can have a bad experience with it--by running WAY too many background services, for example, and wondering why the phone 'lied' about how fast it was out of the package, when a week later it's slow as crap.

The N1 is a thousand times better technologically, but the iPhone has its niche in simplicity. There's no need for fanboys to fight. Google didn't create it to 'beat' the iPhone, but to have a more powerful platform on which to serve their ads. The iPhone just wasn't good enough for what they wanted to do, so they created their own phone.

[Nexus One General] MarcusMaximus04@gmail.com:
I read it until this: "Since there’s no transparent padding around the icons — you know, something that might be smart — there’s no uniformity in the touch areas when you go to tap on an icon." Since that's completely false(the touch area for all icons are the same, they just outright lied about it), I will ignore the whole thing as what an iPhone fanboy wishes Android would be like so it wouldn't hurt their feelings.
[Nexus One General] david1171:
I almost shat myself when I read that remark. This has to got to be one of the most biased reviews I have read. The reviewer resorts to swearing, blatantly lying (doubt he/she ever touched the phone and just watched a few youtube videos of people complaining about it), and finally just present his/her self in a very uneducated way. I really hope this reporter didn't go to college for a journalism degree because of the level of blatant ignorance displayed in this review.
[Nexus One General] bugsy:
A good article refuting the boy genius review:

http://www.geardiary.com/2010/01/11/droid-does-everything-i-need/#more-69648
[Nexus One General] :
I used in the past Symbian and also Windows Mobile and my wife has an iPhone and I played a lot with it.

The iPhone is very nice phone with a almost prefect response time but there are some thighs that a smart phone should be able to do and iPhone is not doing them….and I was able to do them on my very… very slow ..4 years old WinMo phone.

That's why I bought an android phone, that is not perfect but it offers me almost the same freedom as an windows mobile phone and the easy of use of an iPhone.I am also a developer and I can not agree with Apple software development and distribution policy.

Anyway what they are doing with this type of articles is kind of bad and is showing that something is about to change on the phone/gadget market: or Google will try harder to do better products or Apple will excel and will try to learn form they own mistakes (because they have also … :) )
[Nexus One General] kozm0naut:
I hate to sound like a conspiracy theorist, but I'm honestly confused by the negative press surrounding the N1 to the point that I think Apple may be in on it.

This is a sneaky feeling I get about any big corp, though, after reading about M$'s tactics for becoming the "standard" in the industry:

http://www.groklaw.net/articlebasic.php?story=20071023002351958

"Our mission is to establish Microsoft's platforms as the de facto standards throughout the computer industry.... Working behind the scenes to orchestrate "independent" praise of our technology, and damnation of the enemy's, is a key evangelism function during the Slog. "Independent" analyst's report should be issued, praising your technology and damning the competitors (or ignoring them). "Independent" consultants should write columns and articles, give conference presentations and moderate stacked panels, all on our behalf (and setting them up as experts in the new technology, available for just $200/hour). "Independent" academic sources should be cultivated and quoted (and research money granted). "Independent" courseware providers should start profiting from their early involvement in our technology. Every possible source of leverage should be sought and turned to our advantage."

Seems to explain some of the one-sided reviews I've seen. I don't think I've seen an iPhone / N1 comparison yet that admits that the N1 has double the resolution and processing power, coupled with four times the RAM of an iPhone.

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Looking Glass:
Manila is so limited, even in the HD2.....

Get SPB3 shell instead......

Don't know what MS is designing for WM7, but they are for sure taking much more looks at SPB3 than Manila or anything else.

Just my two cents. Sorry if you just need a simple solution, but in my experience small needs pile up quickly, and you end up with so many tweaks and cabs.... that it's better to start from scratch with an interface that is both "decent" and easy to configure, Manila is just one of these things....

Regards.
