Samsung Google Nexus S (Previews, Specification, Estimated Price, Features)
The last Nexus version of Google Phone came from HTC but this time they have trusted Samsung with hardware and the new Google Nexus S looks just as other Samsung Phones.
What could be the reason that Google gave their cell phone manufacturing task to Samsung, probably because Samsung has sold the most number of Android phones which the operating system from Google… You sell, you gain more to sell… maybe this is what they are thinking.
In short, the Samsung Google Nexus S looks a good smartphone but not really a promising one because it has no exclusivity, except for the name ‘Nexus’.
One more thing to note, this version of not-so-popular Nexus series runs on the latest version of Android operating system i.e. Android 2.3. (Gingerbread).

Some Expectations from Samsung Google Nexus S
I am getting some very strong positive vibes from this device, since it has the core hardware and software combination, it could prove lethal against iPhone 4 although the phone market for Android is diluted at the moment with about every cell phone developer working on Android phones but still this one could be the original face of Android and it is from Google itself.
