"On the BBC News website, it was super handy to be able to watch embedded videos as you would when surfing the web on a PC or laptop." 5/5 Stars

"The wait is over: we finally have a worthy alternative to the iPhone 3GS. Despite being thinner and slimmer, the Nexus has a slightly bigger display than the iPhone – and over twice the number of pixels, which makes a real difference when reading text or browsing web pages. The AMOLED technology is wonderfully bright, too, although colours can often seem unnaturally oversaturated. " 5/5 Stars

"...the Nexus One has a tendency to almost jump out of our hands. We got laughed at for literally dropping it while sitting stationary navigating the interface, but when we handed the phone over the same thing happened... " 9/10

"The Android platform is only going to get better and the Nexus One's excellent display and sleek hardware are a winning combination." 4.3/5 Stars

"The Nexus One is a cute piece of kit. Its vivid, colourful OLED display is fractionally narrower but noticeably longer than that of the iPhone, clocking in at 3.7in compared to the iPhone’s 3.5in." 85/100

"The Nexus One phonebook can store quite a lot of information. It lets you input numbers for work and home, and you can even create custom labels. There is of course an email field and you can assign a custom ringtone."

"...the Nexus One streaks ahead with thanks to the firmware 2.1 upgrade and the handset's first class performance." 8.5/10

"The 3.7-inch, 800×480 AMOLED screen is undoubtedly the best we’ve seen on an Android phone yet, delivering crisp and bright colours and much less glare than the LCD efforts found on HTC’s older Android handsets…" 4/5 Stars

Positive

"And though looks aren't everything, I did wish the handset was more of an attention-grabber. The Nexus One's silvery gray and black exterior gives off a sort of industrial chic vibe. It just doesn't pack the same sexy geekiness that the iPhone has in spades, though.A sweet phone, definitely, but super, it's not."

Positive

"The four touch buttons for homescreen, back, menu and search do have haptic feedback when you hit them, but they're not that phenomenal either. Half the time they don't register a press when you want them to, and the other half of the time they think you're hitting it when you just wrapped your hand around the phone slightly too far."

"HTC has managed to get the thickness of the phone down to just 11.5mm, and it measures just 59.8mm and 119mm across and up and down -- kind of a feat when you consider the guts of this thing." 7/10
