Google Android KitKat

heh. i would be surprised if i would get ICS on my Nexus S before the end of the November. Would be great if they deliver it within this month itself. At least my wait for the NP would not be as painful.

----------

hehe. in case you do not wish to spend too much on a smartphone, you should consider buying my NS. i am still looking for a good enough offer. the best i got was 9k which i think was rather sad.

----------

It would definitely get ICS before S2

I am not that desperate to get ICS for sure!

@Admin - No, I do not find it as a joke.. Since you bought it a higher price, its obvious you would not like to throw it away at a low cost. But, yeah, you are able to see the practical side of things as well..I have had a friend who was not willing to sell HTC Wildfire for 10k, when it was bought at 15k & was available at Flipkart for 12 within 1-2 months...He still wanted 13 as his argument was "used it only for 1-2 weeks"... Could not make him understand... Anyway , last I heard, he was using it as a spare phone...

right. in any case. the phone is still probably on sale theoretically. 15 might be a bit too much to expect but I am definitely not selling it for 9

 

[amish]

Oh I am interested in buying! Umm can you tell me exact specs, model number is enough.Plus current battery life and how many months u used it?!

 

[Sushubh]

ok. it is the original GSM model that was launched in USA. i got it directly from best buy i think just days after it was launched. it was launched in early december i think and i got it in the last week of december 2010. it is an unlocked GSM edition of course. as for battery life... since i keep GPS and WiFi/Edge on all day long, it sort of last me one day on low usage. heavy usage of course kills it much faster. 3G practically destroys the battery life. if you are worried about the battery life, i might order a new battery for this phone with my new phone and that should solve your problem. new battery is likely to cost i suppose 40-50 dollars (could be cheaper) i have not checked it. so i would get a new spare battery for you (getting one is not a bad idea in any case). if you can give me a good price for the phone so you get a decent condition battery with a new one! (i do not expect anything extra for the battery. it is just a placebo effect that i want to sell this phone for a reasonable price ) as for the phone's condition. i have posted some shots before. there is one minor dent on the body. smallish one. i have zagg skin covered on the entire phone. and it is also in amzer casing. there is one major bubble that appeared from nowhere recently. but the display itself should be perfect. not a single scratch on it. you can keep the zagg skin on with that bubble or remove it. it should look absolutely brand new (apart from that minor dent ) i do take care of my devices. all this is applicable if an unlocked GSM model of the next Nexus is launched this month and is available in the US market on sale. my friend is coming back in the last week of November. and that is when i should have my new phone and this would become redundant for me.

Nexus S... I believe there are two... One with S-AMOLED & the other SLCD.... Its the SLCD which is avlbl at 18-19 as you say... Do you have the S-AMOLED (I think you do?) ..... Not sure if that affects the "price" from the buyer's perspective

Samsung Google Nexus S vs. Samsung Google Nexus S I9023 - GSMArena.com

 

[Sushubh]

of course. the model that was/is on sale in india at 20K is the SLCD version.

and SAMOLED version was/is on sale recently on some stores for 28K.

mine is of course the original one with SAMOLED.

and that is why i do not think 15K is a bad price for it

though Nexus S is hard to locate on online stores these days.

Motorola teaser counts down to ICS event date, ends a few hours early (video) -- Engadget

Holy cow. Motorola is set to launch something just hours after the official release of ICS in the market!

It would be a major change in policy for Google if Motorola launches ICS smartphone or Tablet on the same day!

This is becoming interesting already.

----------

of course. it is not necessary that their launch would be related to ICS. they might just be launching some routing new products with gingerbread.

Somehow I was thinking Google would launch a "Nexus" tablet - Did not happen though.

@Admin You can sell Nexus S to a local guy saying "This is Nexus S special edition from USA". [JK]. Sell your Nokia and use NS as secondary phone.
