I actually prefer this. Give it a go for a week and you'll probably agree...

Yep, I always put my phone in my pocket top first when I'm not listening to music as that's how I've been holding the phone. When I'm listening to music though I have to keep turning it round when I put it in/take it out of my pocket .

Yup I like it at the bottom too, I put my phone in my pocket top end first because when I go for it I pull it out and it's the right way up so don't have to turn it around, having the jack at the top means I have to put it in bottom first when I'm using the headphones.

The headphone jack is on the bottom of the phone?

To be honest I’m not bothered which end it’s at. I usually only use the jack when it’s lying on a desk or flat surface.

I’ve never seen anyone so eager to use their plastic.

I bought an iPod touch before moving onto the iPhone 4. One change I'd made is to have the jack on the bottom. Lifting it out of your pocket and having the cable over the screen is not fun.

Gorilla Glass does not feature on this phone, Corning tweeted this earlier. Maybe it has hardened glass from another vendor though but that doesn't matter since nothing official stated it had such glass to begin with

My nexus s coped well. Not a scratch on the screen but then again the curved nature might have helped.

(Brief) Hands on review....

They say the performance dropped when they overloaded the notibar, I would say this is mostly because they left live wallpaper enabled. Who uses that anyway? not only does it affect the battery but it also affects performance and is only really a novelty to show off the feature and only then should it really be used.

They also say the screen is really good - smack in the face for PenTile haters??

I called this notion weeks ago!

It was pretty obvious the screen wasn't going to be bad in any way shape or form

I'm expecting small text legibility to be on par with the iPhone screen, if not, they have failed.

If it is... awesome!

It's 'only' Super AMOLED, rather than the Plus technology we've seen on Galaxy S2, but it's still pin-sharp - almost at iPhone levels but on a much larger scale.

me like it ^^


and they say camera is pretty quick

Only the silly few expected it to be not too good.

I'm so looking forward to ditching my Xperia X10 for this phone!!
