Nexus One vs iPhone, Droid & Palm Pre - Total Cost of Ownership

Recommended Posts

Nexus looks comparable on this chart. The droid's hardware must smoke it.

Actually, the Nexus One beats it in the hardware department.

The Droid has a 600 mhz chip running at 550 mhz and has 256 megs of ram and 512 megs of ROM (app storage) while the Nexus One has a 1 ghz chip with 512 megs of ram and 512 megs of ROM.

The only thing the Droid really has going for it is Verizon's network (for now, the Nexus is coming to VZW in the Spring) and its physical keyboard. Until Android's software keyboard is improved, it will continue to be a handicap.

Thanks for the info. I'll just continue to wait for my upgrade until the next big thing comes out.

If the nexus one was available when I got my droid, I still would have gone with the droid. I find HTC hardware to be of a lesser quality in general, not talking specs here, just overall build quality. they just feel cheaper to me. I like the solidness of the Motorola droid, and the physical keyboard option. Obviously at some point the droid will be out done, but I don't think the nexus is it. IMHO

    • I don't think it was fear of the unknown because he tried to hide the extent of the injuries that made him drop. After the drop, the reports I heard were that teams knew what was wrong with his knee and it was something similar to another athlete from a few years ago (honestly don't remember if it was even a football player).  That it was basically one of those things where he should be fine for a while, there isn't a huge concern of immediate injury risk.   But what he has going on with his knee is something that is degenerative and there's little chance he'll be able to play more than 5 or so years on it before he won't be able to play anymore. So basically it was teams knowing if they draft him, he's probably going to be only a rookie contract player and even if he's great, you might not be able to get use out of him on a second contract.  Which in turn makes the drop make sense, but I'm kinda surprised some contending team didn't take him late in the 1st, hoping he'd put them over the top on a SB run but then not even have to worry about giving him a big contract in 4 years too.
    • Depends if they see the writing on the wall with their roster and contracts and decide to bite the bullet and begin a complete rebuild and roster overhaul.  I have no clue why some franchises (IE us) refuse to do this and keep half assing trying to win 8 games or so.  Do it correctly, take your lumps and build a contender.  We shall see what loomis decides.
    • Each team plays 17 games.  I do not see why they don't just have each team play one international game per year.  Neutral site game, 8 home, 8 away.
