Re: What is up with all the nexus hate
hmmmm, having never used one i can't complain about any hardware issues. however i am pissed that absolutely no news has been given with regard to the cdma verizon nexus one since it was announced back in january to come in spring 2010. do they really expect a 4-6 month (depending on when its released) old phone to sell well, especially when they don't even advertise it?(other than the google amount of banner adds, pun intended). i remember hearing the march 23rd rumor, which seemed reasonable. i would have dropped dough on retail price had it come out then. but after hearing absolutely nothing official in the past 4 months i couldn't care less about it now. i sold my tp2 long ago when i heard the n1 was coming to verizon. but now i am so used to my dumbphone again, i just don't care.
don't get me wrong, i am not hating the phone so much as i am mad at the lack of communication on its arrival. and its my own fault for wanting new tech too. this won't be "new" enough for me by the time it breathes cdma frequencies...thats my rant.
i wish there was one site where everyone reviewed everything at, haha. then you could compare all the negative comments about everything. because it seems the media chooses what negatives get exposed, and in this case it is the nexus one. very sad indeed. its not like engadget posted about all the problems people have with their tp2, and i bet those amount to more than the issues with the n1. plus you only hear negatives, how often do you see editorials on engadget talking about how so many people love a certain device, nope, never, just the negatives (unless its apple related, haha).
it would be interesting to compare how many n1's have been sold to how many have issues, i bet its a very small percentile, just blown way outa proportion
