There has been an unbelievable amount of hype leading up the launch of the Google Nexus One. Based on the reviews I’ve read, it’s apparently going to be a revolutionary step for mobile devices.
As more people find out about it in the real world (remember, tech bloggers aren’t real human beings), some forecasts say the Nexus One will be a viable challenger to the iPhone in the global mobile market. The price tag, though, seems quite expensive for the general public to swallow or at least for this broke blogger.
In order to get back into the good graces of Google after seeing they hate me, I’m still considering shelling out the cash to get it. The problem is that I’m still quite confused about all the features the Nexus One has to offer:
- Powered by the Snapdragon: Although I applaud Google’s innovative ability somehow fit a mythical creature into the sleek design, are there any drawbacks in battery life for having such a fiery force at the heart of the Nexus One? I’m still in shock there were so many of these dragons living on Earth and not one Discovery channel special! I’m guessing it’s because Nostradamus didn’t predict anyone to find out about them.
- Integrated with Google Voice: Did anyone know Google had a voice? Maybe I just don’t have my speakers turned up loud enough. Maybe it just doesn’t like talking to PR2 bloggers. How elitist!
- Built-in GPS with Google Maps: Turn left in 460 feet onto unnamed road that doesn’t exist. Great, I can now get lost on the go!
While these all sound like wonderful features, I’m still having trouble figuring out if it does one certain thing. For my unique purposes, it’s really important though for me to find if the Nexus One has this feature.
I’ve searched all over the interweb for information, read hundreds of reviews, previews, interviews and watched videos but I can’t seem to find if this feature exists for the life of me. Maybe you can help answer the question:
