Default Stop complaing... u know you like it ;)

For those who are complaing, because they still can not convince themseleves to keep a phone they spent $587 on; you should have thought about that before buying. if you could not afford it, you should have left it there for someone else to purchase. But stop filling this section with complaints, and waiting for others to to agree with you, so you can build up enough reasons to take it back... i must say, i really enjoy mine. I came from a G1, and THIS is the perfect upgrade for me. True, those coming from the N1 may feel as if it was not a significant offering to require them to move to the NS, but there is absolutley no reason to strike up a new thread everytime you think about the ratio of how much money you spent to the upgrades you are getting. #nogorillaglass... #volumekeyloose... WTF?

I'm not understanding this call for people to stop voicing their complaints and opinions about their purchases (or about anything, in general). No one is telling people who like it to "stop praising it." Isn't this an open forum to share and discuss our interests in mobile technology, including both negative and positive opinions?

I, for one, find feedback from both points of views valuable in helping my Nexus S decision.

I said this at the time the Nexus ONE came out...

I am glad to pay $600 for a phone... Hell, I used to pay $900-$1200 for unlocked HTC phones before android...

its a good phone. no one said otherwise. BUT. if you have anything from Galaxy S, EVO, Desire HD, hell. even the Nexus 1 or Desire. then its not worth the upgrade.

they all can run the same thing. its just a lil bit faster u cant amost notice it.


and honestly. i think the Desire HD is a much better phone - the front facing camera. next gen prcoessor and more than 250M Ram more. " which is where it should matters, Ram. since i can run many apps without getting low on me"

a 4.3 screen with high DPI and nice aluminum body > plastic body and 4.0 screen. you can argue if you want if you like the super amoled screen. but i hate the pinkish tint most of the phones has, or the pattern grid you see in dark gray colors in low brightness.

Right now its to the point there is more negative than positive feedback, and the negative feedback is over petty things, or things that people knew the phone lacked BEFORE they purchased. Im not saying they should not have an opinion, but damn, every thread is a complaint. Like i said, its like people are doing it in order to justify spending $600 or not spending $600... you not liking your phone should not be determined by the number of people who also agree with your negative findings.

I picked mine up earlier today and have been playing with it for the last 2 hours and all I can say is WOW, I came from a nexus1 and the super amoled screen on this phone blows the n1s screen away, I honestly didn't think it'd be that big of a difference, 4" vs 3.7" is the perfect size I think 4.3" is too big. Also I just finished setting up noled and this app is ****in awesome, I'll have to wait and see how it affects battery life but it makes me completely forget about having a notification led. Overall I am very pleased with this phone, especially the screen, it's goddamn amazing, I love how the blacks just blend in with the bezel and you can't tell where the screen begins or ends.

For you, coming from a G1, this is a gigantic leap in performance and screen quality. I'm coming from an N1 running cm6.1-nightlies oc'd and I'm still very happy with the NS, I can't wait for the custom roms and oc'ing to come.

At least you are happy. And im sure it didnt take you creating a thread to see how many other people were complaining before you were satisfied with your device.

There is a difference between voicing an opinion and going into every topic voicing the same damn opinion. When people start going into different topics and whine about the same thing, it gets very annoying (especially when it has been mentioned a million times when the specs were first released) and that's when opinions become whiners or complainers. I'm fine if a person keeps complaining in one or couple topics, but going into every single topic to complain about this or that is not cool. Especially when the person doesn't even have the device.

There are only a couple of topics where I can read through a topic without reading about a person whining because it's Samsung or whatever their reason is. It's just becoming annoying. More annoying than the Vibrant or myTouch4G forums when those devices first launched (and I thought those were bad, especially the Vibrant forum).
