Google Nexus One Versus Apple 3GS – Which Do I Choose
Boy these are both great phones, and this is the new technology here in the present period, both game changers in the smart phone space – no doubt about that. But which is better, or is it more of just a taste of preference? Well, on first glance you will note that the Google Nexus One offers a larger screen (3.7 inches), whereas the Apple has a 3.5 inch, so not too much difference there, but it is noticeable. And the Motorola Droid also has a 3.7 inch screen and it is very crisp. I’d say Apple 3Gs falls in that regard, but of course, that’s only one aspect, let’s discuss the rest shall we?
The resolution of the screen is the big key, that’s what makes the Google Nexus One my favorite, it’s far superior to the Apple 3GS, no comparison, hands down, beats it in that regard. Of course, Motorola’s Droid falls in between the these two on resolution and crisp’ness. And the NexusOne is much faster on the surfing speed, impressively faster actually. And when using the mapping software portion, well, the NexusOne rocks.
The One Gigahertz processor of the Google Nexus is a substantial difference to me, and it shows during navigation, and it allows the Nexus One to maintain the speed along with the resolution. The battery life and talk time of Google’s Nexus One is cool some 7-hours, I am told, although I have not tried it, a gal I met with an iPhone tells me she gets 4 and a half to five hours of talk time on her iPhone.
If I had to choose, I’d go with the Google Nexus one, especially as the 4G wireless becomes more available, because WOW, then it would be super awesome. In the meantime, I wonder how long it will be until Apple responds, and betters Google’s best? Let’s face it, this war for the best smart phone continues.
