Comment on Google's Android Update Alliance Is Already Deadparent

Comments

The Nexus S 4g (sprint) was the worst phone I ever owned. Terrible reception meant calls dropped constantly and therefore the battery never lasted a whole workday. On the flipside, my Motorola Photon has great reception and battery life, but is encrusted with Motororola customizations, and apparently unlocking the bootloader disables 4g. While I love the open nature of Android and I've enjoyed CyanogenMod immensely in the past, the fact is that right now I have a fairly locked-down phone which -- though powerful --is nowhere near as fun to use as ones I've had before.

This whole dropped call seems to be an american thing, i am totally satisfied with my Nexus S.

I will always use a Google Nexus Phone, i had a carrier branded one before and what their logo was all over the place.

I hate carriers anyway, they should accept that they provide a commodity called datatransfer and nothing else.
