How do you rate your nexus one

Oh I understand(and explain the random BS every day)
basically Verizon does it so at&t does it.
But I hate all the cell companies anyway they all overcharge for what we actually get...

I'm by no means singling out att..

If spring gets iphone, we could see some change though... I am prayin for it.
 
10+ Best phone I ever had ( BB-iphone3gs) paid 600 $ from a shop in Hong Kong because I wanted to see the phone and wanted to put my sim card inside after all the horror stories i have been reading on Goggle help forums. I use it with different SIM cards around the world and I am a happy camper :-)
 
Got my Nexus One about a month ago. Bought it straight from Google. How would I rate this phone....well on a scale of 1-10 and 10 being the best, I give this phone a 15!

By far the greatest phone I have ever touched. I might be very lucky, but I haven't had one single problem yet. Live wallpapers work perfect, no lag for me. I read someone gets lag from some live wallpapers.

But yeah, I paid full price for this bad boy and it was worth every penny!
 
I rate it about an 8. I came from an iPhone; few things that bug me about the nexus one:

Not as accurate touch, I suck on the keyboard on the N1 (and I switched to the HTC_IME which I do like better), and I keep hitting the HOME key instead of the spacebar.

Wifi not automatically connecting when I get to work. 3G sometimes not connecting.

I have to give a thumbs up to t-mobile though. Great customer service, I get fast 3G, and great coverage. In my area STL, t-mobile is actually higher rated in the city, with Verizon being second, and here in the burbs, t-mobile is second only to verizon.

Cell Phone Coverage Maps - AT&T, Sprint, T-Mobile and Verizon - Mobiledia

Overall I'm happy with the phone. Will probably root it this weekend.

Then how would you have rated your old iPhone against the N1?

Well, I like a lot of things about the iPhone. The polished UI, the build quality, the fact that things just WORK - smoothly (usually). It's harder on the nexus one to read web page text before zooming in.... I think the iPhone smooths fonts or something. I HAVE to zoom in on the Nexus One whereas I could read small fonts on the iPhone.

However, I get better signal on my nexus one--- I can actually get a signal at work in what used to be a dead zone for the iPhone. And that's hugely important to me.

Also, in my opinion, iPhone is missing BASIC out of the box functionality. Like being able to change the background! It's very vanilla in comparison to the Nexus One. I had a 2g iphone, and the Nexus blows it out of the water as far as speed goes.

I won't be going back to the iPhone (anyway I gave it to my daughter, I don't think she'd give it back, LOL). BUT the thing I miss most is my Words with Friends game. I really hope they port it to android!!!

That's caused by the N1's AMOLED and the way the sub pixels are arranged call PenTile matrix. There are a couple of threads that discussed about this...but I'm too lazy to find it so you can read more here: Secrets of the Nexus One's screen: science, color, and hacks
 
Nexus One (ATT 3G Version) rated: 10+++

Best phone ever much better then the archaic technology on the iPhone; also the unlimited data/messaging/internet only cost me $15 extra per month from what I was paying for a 1500 text only plan. Priced out ATT is cheaper then Verizon.

I agree with other post don't buy a subsidized ATT android phone, the best bet is to buy directly from Google unlocked.

Once you go Nexus One you never go back! (especially to the iPhone; don't believe all the iPhone hype, the iPhones simply are not that good).

I do find the HTC EVO interesting, all though I have no experience with Sprint.

No problem... yeah I don't like pentile either & good for you! I am a disaster waiting to happen when it comes to things like this with technology

I just got my N1 last week! It's a great phone, and I'm still on my G1 plan from Tmobile.
I'm a 10 + year customer so i have unlimited minutes family plan with 400 texts on my phone and now the same for my wife (who now has my G1 and her first Android phone!). I'll be paying around $148 a month for everything. I may root my phone, but if apps 2 sim really does come out for 2.2 then i'll probably stay stock. 10 + phone, well worth the $550+ I paid for the pone!
 
i got mine full price for at&t... completely worth it... id give it a 9-9.5 out of 10 ... ive had some problems but there getting better
