Nexus One: Day Two

Posted by – January 20, 2010

Battery life improving.  Lasted around 16 hours from single charge and medium-ish use, including an hour and half’s Spotify use on the bus into work this morning.  Experienced small lock-up during Twidroid application in that the keyboard wouldn’t respond properly, and whenever I tried to press the H key, I activated the voice input.  It was if the CPU was taking a bit of a battering.  After a minute or two the problem soon went away.

Still very impressed with the phone despite these couple of small issues.  Have been playing around with Google Goggles and am very impressed by the way it’s able to detect objects and locate information on them online.  Also very impressed with RingDroid which takes your music collection and turns them into ringtones or notification sounds.  It has one of the most impressive user interfaces I’ve seen for the touchscreen.

Call quality is excellent, and I love the way that the phone disables the screen while you have it up to your face (so you don’t accidentally hit any buttons).  As soon as you move your face away, the buttons are there and are easy to access.  Far better than the HTC Hero.
