I just bought the nexus and have used my sisters iphone side by side and i am so glad I bought the nexus over the iphone It blows it away, Only advantage iphone has is app store where 95% of the apps are worthless Android has a ton of apps and did not find one from apple that i wish I could get on my nexus. Nexus has multi function which is huge, bigger better screen, faster processor, better camera, live wallpapers and thats just a few. Im sure its just what every ones taste is but for me I love my nexus best phone I have ever had.

Wouldn’t it be funny if Google took Google Maps off the iPhone and used it for their devices only….. Watch this space…

Michael, thanks, I stand corrected, that was an inaccurate statement on my part. What I meant was that if Apple does not allow a Google app (even if it is only one), there clearly is no pulling strings with them. Anyway, thanks for the comment.

“Apple does not allow Google apps in the app store, so there clearly is no pulling strings with Apple. ”

Apple does allow Google apps in the app store. They currently have Panoramio, Google Earth, and the Google Mobile App.

They haven’t let Google Talk in, but they don’t restrict apps just because they’re from Google.

I carry quite a few toys – currently it is a 3GS and a Blackberry curve.

Sitting in the briefcase are my Nokia E71, Samsung SGH-i780 and HTC Diamond.

The best phone in the group was actually the Nokia – for getting emails pushed from our outlook server, using limited ‘where am I now?’ GPS and good talk quality. But unfortunately it took a serious fall from the table and is toast. The 3rd party application side was pretty painful for me and certainly a negative point.

My iPhone is just more fun when compared to all the others. But, half way through the day and it is dead. The danger around building a great UI, wonderful audio/video player with some good games is that it actually gets used a LOT. If I used my iPhone the way I really want to, it would be dead in just about 2 hours – which makes all of those other features worthless. Add to that was my constant thinking… why aren’t there more applications that I want and why do I need big brother Apple telling me what is okay? (Maybe for good reason but I still resent it.)

My curve last the day even though it isn’t as fun. Here in Indonesia you need a Blackberry device to chat with your friends as it is the most popular chatting vehicle around.

We just brought in some Motorola Cliqs to take a drive and I am looking forward to a Nexus but right now, give me an Apple iPhone 3GS with a removable 1900mAh battery (and few spares) and I’d be satisfied for the next 3 – 6 months.

Not having had a chance to try HTC’s new UI overlay on Windows limits my experience but I do want to see the latest there – unfortunately battery , usability and consumer experience just haven’t hit it that elusive sweet spot yet.

Today – IMHO we still need a few devices – Work, Play and Just In Case.

Wow, lotta comments here. Some calling me a “fanboy” as expected, and some calling me a “Apple Hater”. In any case, thank you all for reading, appreciate your feedback. One thing I would like to address is Mark’s comment.

I do not see anything wrong with writing a piece about the Android concept vs the iPhone concept with having a Nexus. I use a different Android phone, so I am not a complete stranger to it. In any case, if I misunderstood, I apologize, but I think that was uncalled for.

Would love to connect with all of you at http://twitter.com/hilzfuld
