Nexus S 4G retail box

Google's pure Android phone designed for the developer and person who wants the latest and greatest Android OS first should consider the Nexus S 4G. The specs are the same as the Samsung Nexus S with a 4G WiMAX radio on Sprint.

Check out my ZDNet Smartphones and Cell Phones blog for more details on the Nexus S 4G.

This Android has everything I need. From the 5 MP cameras to the Java applications, this phone is very good. Nice to have one like this. - Kyle Thomas Glasser

Smartphone Google Nexus S 4G IS GOOD, BUT I'd rather THE HTC EVO 4G or wait for HTC EVO 3D.

Im very curious about the battery life. I wonder if its better than the EVO. I am ready to make a trade but only to a phone that has " real" battery life. This charging the phone several times a day or swapping the battery out every day & still having to charge it is just a little too much!
I currently own the HTC EVO 4G, and I love it! I have however been looking at what else is out there. Battery life is not much of a concern to me as I just have come to realize its a fact of life with smart phones (multiple charges per day). It may sound a bit silly, but the main reason I would not want the Nexus S 4G is because of where they placed the headphone jack. Why on earth is it on the bottom? I don't want my phone upside down when I put in my pocket. I haven't had an iPod in years. I always use my mobile device for music listening. I am waiting for the HTC EVO 3D
