  • Google Nexus S with Gingerbread is Now Official, Available Dec 16 in US, Dec 20 in UK

    No more rumors no more speculations as the Google Nexus S with Android Gingerbread is finally made official after previously rumored for many times. Along with the official release of the Android 2.3 Gingerbread today, the Nexus S which is co-developed with Samsung officially becomes the second device of the Google Nexus line and the first device to ship with the new Android platform. The Nexus S released with what Google called as “pure Google” experience which is unlocked, unfiltered access to the  best Google mobile services and the latest and greatest Android
    releases and updates.

    The latest hardware meets amazing software

    Gingerbread pre-installed

    Nexus S is the first phone to run Gingerbread, the fastest version of Android yet.
    Gingerbread builds on some of the most popular Android features like multi-tasking and Wi-Fi hotspot and adds a refreshed user interface, an improved keyboard, near field communication (NFC) support, and more.

    Refined look and feel

    There’s a slick black notification bar that’s easier to read and an improved on-screen keyboard with multi-touch support that makes typing faster and more accurate.

    One-touch word selection and improved copy-paste

    With Gingerbread, copying and pasting text is easier than ever. Use the new text selection tool to copy and paste when entering text or viewing a webpage.

    Internet calling (VoIP/ SIP support)

    Gingerbread allows Nexus S to place Internet calls with a SIP account. This allows for enhanced VoIP dialing to other SIP accounts and even phone numbers.

    Portable Wi-Fi hotspot

    Nexus S can function as a Wi-Fi hotspot for up to six portable devices such as laptops or tablets. Once connected, these devices will have access to the Internet with no additional carrier fees.

    Fast just got faster

    A 1 GHz Hummingbird processor paired with 16GB of internal memory makes Nexus S one of the fastest phones on the market.
    Menus open faster, tabs are more responsive, and web pages load quicker with virtually no lag time. Switch between apps effortlessly with true multitasking on Android.
    Nexus S has a dedicated Graphics Processing Unit (GPU). Playing mobile games, browsing the web, and watching videos are fast, fluid, and smooth. It's like having a pocket-sized multimedia and game console.

    Brilliant 4” Contour Display

    Nexus S is manufactured by Samsung, and it is the first smartphone to launch with a Contour Display. The curved glass screen fits comfortably in the palm of your hand and along the side of your face.
    A brighter screen with higher contrast means colors are incredibly vibrant, text is crisp at any size, and luminance is up to 1.5x higher than conventional LCD displays.

    Outdoor viewing

    Take Nexus S outside, there's 75% less glare than on other smartphone displays. Your videos, pictures and games look their best and the sun won't wash them out.

    Lighter and thinner profile

    The Contour Display uses a thin-profile glass panel, making Nexus S uniquely slim and trim. It's subtle but you'll notice.

    Near Field Communication (NFC)

    Nexus S can read information from "smart" tags, or everyday objects that have NFC chips in them. These can be anything from stickers and movie posters to t-shirts.

    Rear and front-facing cameras

    The rear-facing 5 megapixel camera is capable of taking stunning pictures and HD videos that you can share with friends and family. The front-facing camera can take VGA quality images and video.

    Unlocked by default

    Out of the box, Nexus S is unlocked, so it will work with any GSM carrier.

    Latest Google Mobile apps

    Nexus S comes pre-installed with the best of Google apps, including Google Search, Google Maps with Navigation (Beta), Mobile Instant, Voice Actions, Gmail, Google Earth and more. With Nexus S, be the first to receive upgrades, features and new apps as they become available.

    Android Market
