I agree. Personally I like the Nexus One look over this one. This looks a little like a fat chick, especially that bottom chin. Plus this is really disappointing. The main hype about this phone is that it would be packing a dual-core CPU, and Samsung just stuck in their old Hummingbird Processor. It doesn't even have a microSD slot, almost all Android phones do. Looks like they?re starting to take the path of Apple, make a huge hype about the product, then disappoint.
Next year (next month) dual core phones are coming out. Yes NFC is nice and all, but this phone could have been A LOT better, especially if it?s the "successor" of the N1. It just seems that Samsung and Google didn't even try at making a great phone like the N1 was. BRING BACK HTC.
I see we are getting back to larger cell phones as we emerge into the smart phone market. It won't be long and we will be back to the form of the good old HP Jornada 720 which I loved for a PDA but I'm not sure I'd love it as a phone even though the keyboard would be great and the display is more close to a normal PC screen.
