Samsung have to supply their top of the line Android and WP7 handsets with it but I expect them to ease up next year. The Nexus S may be top of the line right now but I don't think it will hold the crown for long when the dual cores from Samsung roll out.

So, is it true that Europe and Russian versions of Google Nexus S will not ha... morei read in an article that the russian version of google nexus s will indeed not have a super amoled screen. i think the decision was based on some mobile reviewer from russia that said that super amoled screen isnt really nice and easy on the eyes because its super bright. i think many people from your country respects that guys opinion and maybe google and samsung thought it would be best if your google nexus s wont have a super amoled screen because otherwise it might not sell well there....

          This is just absurd! This phone costs way more than the Galaxy S when it's basically the same plus some minor updates and minus the HD video and the micro sd slot. Samsung and Google just shot them selves in the foot. Both companies know that Motorola and LG will be releasing dual processor android phones in the next month or so and still they decided to put out a product that is not competitive at all. I had very high hopes for this phone but I guess I'll just wait to the LG or the Motorola...and if the LG and Motorola turn out not to be as good as they are supposed to be (I doubt it) I'll just buy a Galaxy S for half the price of the Nexus S and with the benefit of shooting HD and having a micro sd card slot.

            This is really messed up. The MSRP for an unlocked Nexus One set BY GOOGLE in the United States is exactly £335. I don't know why you Brits put up with the ridiculous prices set by the retarded UK phone companies.

                  Off course it is the newest phone with the newest OS in the android world AND also compacted with some new technology like NFC and Curved display.But counting all the things the price of this much....:0

                  again Google is following its history.As like the Nexus1 was pricing so high and it wasn't able to give the company the market success as a flagship phone.So think about that google...

                  Market segmentation should not always have to be in a must way...at the end product make its segment on its own and it is obvious.

                          @some guy from greece: money exists only to be wasted. Money has no meanibg but the purpose to materially pleasure us. So if a 550 pounds phone will make u happy then buy it. Then more money will come.

                              My brother has the Galaxy S. Due to business he spends every days at least 80 mins on the phone and the Galaxy S has the lowest SAR value on the market. That is the main reason he got it. I don't want to insult anyone and don't call me a fanboy, but the Android is so primitive and not user friendly that I keep wondering why anyone would get a high end android device, as it costs as much as an Iphone. 550 pounds for the Nexus S? You can get an Iphone 4 for the same money. Wtf? The Galaxy S is every single way behind the iphone (UI, Cydia, Apptrackr, Ultrasn0w). There is no logical explanation to get a high end android.

                                I supose this is just a preorder price...wait until it comes out...same was with the Galaxy S,when the phone was first released,the price was above 700 euros and now,you can buy it for under 400e!so don't panic,people! :))

                                  The design seems lot better than the one found at galaxy S, especially at the hands grip. But 160 euro better, it isn't. Not a surprize that a high end phone is too expensive at it's lunch, not a surprize only money wasters will buy it right now.

                                    Hello everyone.
                                    So, is it true that Europe and Russian versions of Google Nexus S will not have super amoled screens? I am from Greece, it would be very dissapointing and unfair from Samsung to give a supperior screen at some countries and a not so impressive one to the rest of us..
                                    In that bad case which choise is better for us? A Galaxy S (provided that will get 2.3 Gingerbread) or Google Nexus S? I like the fact that Nexus S will have a led flash. It doesn't have hd recording (and fm radio, Galaxy has but is mono-only, by the way with other applications is it possible to get stereo fm sound?) but if video quality is good, it is not a problem for me.
                                    Thanks for your time. :)
