Manufactured by Samsung Telecommunications America (Samsung Mobile), a leading global mobile phone provider and the No. 1 mobile phone provider in the United States2, Nexus S 4G comes packed with a pure Google experience using Android™ 2.3, Gingerbread, the fastest version of Android available for smartphones. It is powered by a 1GHz Samsung application processor that produces rich 3D-like graphics, faster upload and download times and supports HD-like multimedia content along with a dedicated Graphics Processing Unit (GPU) to make playing mobile games, browsing the Web and watching videos a fast, fluid and smooth experience.

“Nexus S 4G shows the strong commitment Sprint has to Android, and when combined with our 4G network capabilities, it gives customers the option of a pure Google experience,” said Fared Adib, vice president – Product Development, Sprint. “As the first 4G smartphone with Android 2.3, Nexus S 4G delivers on the promise of the advanced data capabilities of 4G to deliver an incredible Web browsing experience, offers quick and easy access to future Android updates and access to the services built into Google Voice.”

The 4-inch Contour Display features a curved design for a more comfortable look and feel in the user’s hand or along the side of the face. It also offers a screen that is bright with higher color contrast, meaning colors are incredibly vibrant and text is crisp at any size and produces less glare than on other smartphone displays when outdoors, so videos, pictures and games look their best and the sun won’t wash them out.

Sprint Nexus S 4G customers will be among the first to receive Android software upgrades and new Google mobile apps. In many cases, the device will get the updates and new apps as soon as they are available.

It lets users manage up to six different phones through one number with intelligent call routing and advanced features like call screening, blocking and recording.

Sprint Passes on the Google Nexus One Sprint Passes on the Google Nexus One(0)

Like Verizon Wireless, Sprint as decided to take a pass on the Google Nexus, opting instead for 4G-powered handsets.

Back in March, Sprint announced it was going to carry the Google Nexus One, the so-called “superphone” Google thought might break the iPhone’s long-standing lock on mindshare in the smartphone market. Now, Sprint has backed down from that promise, opting instead to make room in its product lineup for the HTC EVO 4G. All mentioned of the Nexus One going to Sprint have been removed from Google’s Nexus One site.

The move follows Verizon Wireless quietly passing on the Nexus One, opting instead for the HTC Incredible, a near-sibling of the Nexus One with a beefier camera and improved trackpad.

All told, the news may not be good for Google’s Nexus One handset—which will now have even more trouble meeting its sales projections now that two major U.S. carriers have passed on it. However, the overall prognosis for Google’s Android platform remains quiet positive: both the devices that Sprint and Verizon Wireless has selected over the Nexus One run Android, and the mobile operating system’s market momentum seems to be gaining: according to NPD, Android devices outsold the iPhone last quarter.

In part, Google’s online-only sales plan for the Nexus One may be hampered by the U.S. mobile market, which is fractured by carriers operating incompatible technologies and frequencies. Verizon Wireless and Sprint rely on CDMA technologies, while AT&T and T-Mobile rely on GSM running on different frequencies. Versions of the Nexus One are available for AT&T and T-Mobile, but the complications may befuddle users trying to buy a phone through Google. In Europe—where GSM is standardized—Google could have an easier time marketing the Nexus One, although at least one operator (Vodafone) is selling the device in its own stores, rather than as a selectable carrier through Googles Web store.
