Smartphone users who have switched to the Nexus One have branded the phone as the best Android phone sold in the market to date. Let’s take a look at some of the features of Nexus One and see if it can rival the likes of iPhone and other well-known smartphones.
The Appearance
The Nexus One is branded by most as a seemingly twin phone of Apple’s iPhone. This is because at a glance, the Nexus One resembles the iPhone in appearance. Much like the iPhone, Nexus One does not have a physical keyboard. This results in a design that’s slimmer. In fact, the Nexus One is actually thinner than the iPhone with dimensions of 119 by 59.8 by 11.5 millimeters. The phone is also very light weighing only 130 grams.
Nexus One comes with a 3.7 inch Active-matrix organic light emitting diode (AMOLED) capacitive touch screen with display resolution of 480 by 800 pixels. At the bottom of the screen are four touch buttons – the back, menu, home, and search buttons. It also has one trackball pointing device a power button and voice controls at the left side.
