Nexus One: Interesting phone, unexceptional design
With its trackball and prominent display, the Nexus One looks a bit like the HTC Hero and the HTC Droid Eris. The phone's 3.7-inch AMOLED display, however, really is a wonder with its 16.7 million color capability and an 800x480-pixel resolution.
Slim as a pencil
At (4.56 inches by 2.36 inches by 0.47 inch), the Nexus One measures about the same size the Droid Eris, the Hero, and the iPhone.
An iPhone twin, almost, as far as size goes
The Nexus One looks about the same size as the iPhone and weighs just a fraction of an ounce less than one at 4.58 ounces.
Touch-screen keypad nothing to write home about
The Nexus One's touch-screen keypad is similar to all others on Android phones.
All hail the standard headset jack
A standard 3.5mm headset jack and a power button line the top of the Nexus One.
Scroll ball doubles as indicator
Hearkening back to the BlackBerry Pearl, this scroll ball on the Nexus One lights up and doubles as an indicator light.
Two-toned backside
The two-toned gray color scheme is standard in smartphone design.
No bigger than your palm
The Nexus One has a comfortable feel in the hand.
Travels well
The Nexus One fits easily in a pants pocket.
