I may have a relatively new phone (LG Versa) but that does not stop me from wanting a phone with a little more oomf.  Oomf in the way of a bigger screen, faster processor, beefier graphics capability… not to mention a decent web browser or GPS.  I have always been a fan of the iPhone, but have steered clear of it because… well… it’s an Apple product.  Now if you don’t know me, you may be saying, “how can this guy not like Apple products when his site looks just like Apple’s?”  Well to make it short I love Apple as a design company, as a marketing company, and as a minimalistic guru.  I however have issues with Apple’s  business model.  They put mediocre parts in a sleek case and charge you easily twice what you should be paying.  Anyway I won’t get in to the whole discussion at the moment.

The point is that I have been on the lookout for a comparable phone to the iPhone and it is getting close.  The Nexus One is a phone designed by Google Labs and will soon be released to just about every major cell service.  One of the main reasons this phone stands out from the pack for me is its Active-matrix OLED display.  OLED displays are far superior to the usual LCD display in terms of black levels, color balance, power consumption, and generated heat.  This is one of the first cell devices (besides overseas) to have one of these awesome displays.  The phone also runs on the newest Android OS which is also another huge plus.  I won’t go on and on about the specs.  There is a pretty good review over Engadget if you are interested.
