Since the Google Nexus One was released a few months ago, it has been the talk of the town. Smartphone fanatics have given it a resounding thumbs up. It is an Android phone designed by the search engine giant Google, however, it is actually manufactured by renowned cell company HTC. Those who have already got themselves a Nexus One agree that the phone is the best Android phone made to date. The Google Nexus One bears some similarities to the iPhone. The Nexus One has no physical keyboard, like the iPhone, and the slim construction that results is actually slightly thinner than that of the iPhone. Featuring dimensions of 119mm x 59.8mm x 11.5mm, the sturdy phone is also rather light, weighing in at only 130 grams. Equally attractive is the 3.7 inch AMOLED touch screen. The display has a powerful resolution of 480 x 800 pixels. Four touch buttons representing back, menu, home, and search buttons are found at the bottom of the screen. On the left side are found a trackball pointing device as well as the voice controls. Even with all of these features, you will have the features down within a few hours because the control system the Nexus One uses is very user-friendly. The Nexus One operates with a 1 GHz Qualcomm Snapdragon processor on an Android 2.1 system. All of the standard connectivity features are found on the phone. Internet browsing is accomplished with a 3G HSDPA and HSUPA and WiFi though WLAN connections. Using a microUSB and Bluetooth, the phone transfers data to other devices either cabled or wirelessly. A wide variety of software features and applications place the Nexus One amongst the most delightful phones to use. Google Voice is one such application installed to the phone. A user can assign their Google Voice number to the phone. This can be used for texting and for placing calls. Google Voice users can therefore place free calls right from the cell phone. Even without a physical keyboard, the Nexus One makes texting and data entry easier than ever. If a text field is found on the phone, it is also voice enabled. The Voice Keyboard, launched just last year, is an application that allows the user to activate the microphone button and convert their speech into text by speaking into the phone. All you have to do is talk, and your words are converted into text. Not only does it save you the time and tedium of typing on the phone, it has been rated at a 90% accuracy rate.
