For me anyways...With the release of the At&t Nexus S I might jump ship from the Nexus One. I have been discussing the switch with an extra N1 owner (who moved to the NS) and he has been nice enough to give me a good honest comparsion. So far this is what I have put together:
Nexus 1:
Pros:
Build quality
GPS seems to be better
Still runs quite well
I already own it
Cons:
The screen issue has been showing it's ugly face more and more lately.
I am out of internal memory on my phone, keep having to delete apps.
Nexus S:
Pros:
Bigger/Nicer screen
Much better digitizer
A lot more internal memory
It's the latest from google so it will get the update from google first (as we have seen with Gingerbread)
Processor is faster (even with the same speeds the hummingbird is a fast processor).
Cons:
GPS seems to off
Build quality
Accessory choice is poor (I like the fact that I have a car mount specific to the N1).
Battery life is the same as the N1.
Not a Dual Core phone.
I don't really care all that much about 4G yet because I get pretty good speeds. I was also thinking about getting the atrix but I would have to root the phone in order to get it to do what I want (plus I like plain android). I definitely don't want to sign a contact so the phone would be brought outright.
Is any other At&t N1 owner thinking about switching? I would love to hear everyone's opinion (at&t or not). I am really on the fence about this. I know that the next Nexus may only be 7-8 months out (I am betting on the launch of Ice Cream there will be a Nexus 2 or Nexus T or whatever).
