Google Nexus One

Google's first own-brand Andriod based smartphone which has been made for them by HTC.

As with any HTC product, build quality and attention to detail are second to none so you can be assured of a very stable, efficient and reliable product straight from the outset.

The screen is a reasonably large 3.7" AMOLED display for ultra-clarity and is obviously touchscreen, although a trackball is included which greatly aids navigation through the very extensive menu.

To keep things zipping along in a ship-shape and orderly fashion, inside the Nexus One is a 1GHz Qualcomm Snapdragon processor along with 512Mb of RAM to keep the Android OS moving at peak performance.

With a 5 megapixel digital camera, Wi-Fi and 3.5mm audio socket, the Google Nexus One is well equipped for the fun side of life and will meet and excel in all multimedia applications.

It's a quad band, 3.5G device that has Wi-Fi, GPS and microSD slot that allows upto a hefty 32Gb of memory - Cool!
