The Nexus One
Been contemplating writing this for a very long time now; let?s see if I can get it out in one shot. I have had some quality time with my cousin?s Nexus One a while ago and the experience frankly is still leaving me speechless. Considering that I use its fraternal twin, the Desire as a daily supplementary device; to leave that kind of impression is no small feat.
Why is it that tech writers, reviewers, Android enthusiasts, hacker and amateurs to this day are still talking about it, demoing apps on it, taking pictures of it and still using a phone that is more than 2-years old? Because the darn phone is simply that good!
I?ll be lucky if my G-Nex will leave such a legacy behind in the coming years. But simply put, the phone was ahead and still is ahead of its time. HTC is smart in resurrecting the ?One? name in hope of re-capturing some of that legacy. But there isn?t a doubt that the Nexus One and the original Moto Droid was the one, two punch that put Android on the map.
My cousin and countless others on the forums and social networks still rave about the N-1; it?s a topic that brings up countless memories and warm-fuzzy feelings. It?s a phone that any Android enthusiasts can instantly connect with, and a starting point to almost any conversation. It?s a phone that is as relevant today as the day it was launch and will still be with us for some time to come.
