I think I will sell my Focus for Nexus S.

Seriously, Microsoft has put more focus on developing on their competitors platforms than their own OS.

Yes Mango looks nice, but it's really bunch of features that plays catch-up not catch-on.

Android has all the apps I want, has more support and most important of all has Google search not this Bing crap.

Bye bye then.

Good luck on the other side mate.

Don't you have a blog, facebook account or something to post this on? Because nobody here cares.

you may want to wait another month or so. nexus s is outdated compared to current (and very soon to be) released phones with better cameras, better cpus, etc

whatever you choose, make sure it doesn't have a poor signal antena like the iphone was suffering.

good luck !

Bye.

Surely this thread has run it's course

Thanks for the advice, but I rather have the Nexus S, unless there are rumors of another Google phone coming out soon.

The reason is I don't want the long delays from carriers blocking OS updates, I rather have fully supported phone directly from Google with no third party crapware layering on top.

I have a feeling Nexus S will still outperform all those dual core android phones simply on the basis of optimization from Google.

Even if there are new better phones coming out, I wouldn't expect any of them hitting Canada soon. It takes at least 4-6 months to even get a launch date.

Bye.
Still I would like to mention, the NS doesn't support 850 band, if you don't want to switch carrier.

I know there is a version coming to AT&T, but right now it's not on sale yet.

Yes, it is. It costs $600, but it's white and available online.

People reporting receiving it as of yesterday.

The funny part of this thread is that we don't actually know many of the additional features coming in Mango. We know application developer facing features, not user facing features.

Have fun though.

What do you expect? WP is only version 1. iPhone and Android were playing catch-up when they were first released too.

You shouldn't have gotten a WP if you didn't want to wait for it to be updated.

 

[Avandor]

You'll be back

 

[Jim Coleman]

Funnily enough, updates take longer on average to hit Android phones than WP7 phones, measured from official announcement to actually hitting 50% or more devices.

HMMM, the next google phone is out. Its called the LG G2X!!!

Yep. And the review on The Register says it lags. Which is quite an achievement for a dual-core machine.

Doesn't seem to outperform anything really.

If it does it's really a bummer. Looks like dual core stuff is not really optimized yet.
I honestly think this technology will be really working well next year after the work which has to be done about it.
