Samsung Nexus S

You might have heard about the news related with the new Android phone from Google, the name of the maven is Nexus S. Being the product of Samsung it obviously have the brilliant contour display.

I would not comment anythings related with 1 GHz Hummingbird processor paired with 16GB of internal memory as its seems to be same as Samsung Galaxy S (as per personal review of performance). What outlaws the Nexus S is pre-installed Gingerbread (android 2.3.3, check screenshot of preview) which makes the perfect performance over Samsung Galaxy S hardware.

The new side curves of Nexus S definitely makes the difference over Samsung Galaxy S and it have very youth like feeling in hand. Have a look over below preview of Samsung Nexus S running with android 2.3.3
