Default Nexus 1 VS. Nexus S VS. Galaxy Nexus.

Don't get me wrong because I have a Galaxy nexus and I absolutely love it to death. I actually own all three of them and all are in mint condition. I have to say that the Nexus 1 is still better looking than the other two. It never functioned perfectly but I like to think of them as Super cars. They are pure in form but always have something wrong with them. The buttons on the Nexus one make me crazy. I sometimes have to push them multiple times to get them to work. The Nexus S looks all sexy and black but it crashes a lot and sometimes the screen does some very odd stuff. I have actually seen it sit cocked a quarter turn. The Galaxy Nexus is a great looking phone and mine so far has restarted itself, doesn't like my router, and drops volume yet I don't care its amazing. And I think its crap that Verizon is messing with the google pure experience that makes my gsm unlocked worth the $750 that I paid for it.

Thats a given that the n1 would be slower than the ns and that slower than the GN.

Yeah I also owned all three (don't have the nexus one anymore) and I think that the nexus one was the best built phone.
It felt good when holding it and the design was nice. It's was the perfect size except for the screen size ofcourse.

If I had to put them in order of "likeness" it would be
- Nexus One
- Galaxy Nexus
- Nexus S

If I've helped you in any way, press the THANKS button

I agree the N1 was so far ahead of anything else out as well.

Aside from the metal build of n1 and micro sd think the galaxy nexus trumps all aspects of both phones. The lack of micro SD is a big bummer.

Objects of pure perfection and beauty. The International S2 is also a damn good phone.
