[Nexus One General] ksc6000:
2nd Report:

1) WiFi stays on on the Nexus S without fail. I've tried every possible fix for the Nexus One, different roms, different wifi fixing apps and none have been able to successfully keep the wifi connection alive. Very good.

2) I'm really starting to like how the phone looks. When it's sitting there, the all black with a sleek curve looks very minimalistic and very classy...it looks much better than it does in photos and videos online, even on google's own site.

3) No improvement in opening/rendering of Word/Powerpoint/PDF files. Not that it's terrible in the N1, but I was certainly looking for more fluidity and faster/smoother rendering.

4) The home screens swiping loses its initial smoothness as soon as plenty of apps and widgets are loaded up (and I only use 3 homescreens)....requiring Launcher Pro which doesn't function as well as it does on the N1, where it stays completely smooth unless you use live wallpapers. Although...

5) Live wallpapers do decrease the performance of swiping between homescreens, but not as much as the N1, so that's a slight positive.

6) Camera still shots look better in color and brightness, but the shutter speed or whatever is quite slow. I was trying to take pictures of my dog and he's moving around as he usually does. On the N1 it would still take a picture quick enough that there wouldn't be any motion blur, but the Nexus S just can't seem to do it fast enough to where there's no visible motion blur. Video recording is slightly improved...framerate still sucks but is slightly better than N1.

7) Scrolling through widget lists, menus and other things have slightly improved in fluidity, but it's still just at what feels like 20-24 fps, not like super smooth 60 fps (except for the app drawer)

8) I don't know if I mentioned this already, speakerphone is very loud, crisp and clear. Decent bass too as far as tiny speakers go.

9) Default ringtone and notification sounds are more professional/subtle/cleaner sounding than the ones on N1..a plus for me.

10) Animations can start to stutter. This is surprising and disappointing. This doesn't mean apps close/switch any slower, but the animations between going home and going to an app have a very slight, but noticeable stutter, or animation frame skip if you're looking for it. It's not as bad as the N1 is without Launcher Pro..but it's not as smooth as LP makes it on the N1 (which it doesn't on the NS).

11) Screen is still gorgeous.

Overall though, the N1 is on par with pretty much everything in my use of the Nexus S...so I will be returning this phone for sure before the 30 days are up and maybe I'll purchase it later on used.

And to those who are saying I'm not making a fair comparison, of course I'm not, this isn't meant to be an apples to apples comparison, because there are no custom ROMs for the NS yet and other scripts and things that I'm sure will make it a little better...I'm merely reporting my experience with the NS compared to my N1. I'm sure a lot of people here will find the information useful as they probably have setups similar to mine.

Let me know if you guys want anything else compared that I don't have to purchase and I'll try to do that.
