Some more details about Google and HTC’s iPhone killer, the Nexus One, have emerged. Tnkgrl Mobile has had a chance to play with the handset for a while, bringing some interesting insight, both in terms of what the phone can and can’t do.
- - It’s extremely thin
- - It’s much nicer looking in person than in pictures
- - There’s a 4 GB micro-SD card installed
- - The battery capacity is 1400 mAh
- - The screen appears to be OLED (same size/resolution as the Motorola Droid)
- - 3G works on T-Mobile USA
- - I can confirm that there’s no 3G on AT&T (EGDE only)
- - It’s definitely unlocked
- - It’s super snappy! Faster than the Droid…
- - There’s no multitouch support in the browser or in Google Maps
- - There’s no dedicated camera key, but it’s the same camera interface as the Droid
- - The trackball can be used to focus (like on other HTC devices)
- - Low-light performance is decent, but the flash is weak
- - Calls are routed the normal way, not using data (VoIP), and sound fine
- - The home screen is divided into 5 panes (like the custom interface on the Motorola CLIQ)
- - It’s using a micro-USB connector for data/power
