Gaming with the New Nexus S

The first way the soon to be available Nexus S will make future gamers happy is through the sheer speed of the machine. This is one fast smart phone. It isn’t yet on the market, but people who have had the chance to use it consistently report that it feels much faster and fluid than almost any other smart phone they’ve tried, barring the iPhone 4.

This makes sense since Google made a lot of tweaks to the newest version of their operating system, Gingerbread, to make it a better experience to use Android on a smart phone. Add the speedy little Cortex hummingbird processor that clocks in at 1 GHz, and you’ve got the makings of a smart and fast little phone. Just by having a super fast smart phone will not make you a pro gamer overnight, but having a device that makes life easier wouldn’t hurt.

Speaking of making gaming easier for users, the Nexus S has a redesigned user interface and a much more navigable setup. People have reported that moving around the handset from page to page feels slick, fluid, easy, and natural. This translates to gaming, as when you are playing something like Tetris or Super Mario, you don’t want the success of your gaming dependent on whether you’re smart phone decides to lag on you at the most inopportune times or not. Similarly, the keyboard that comes with the Nexus S is a digital one, but it is a slick little keyboard that responds quickly to user input and makes it feel more like a tactile keyboard without the space it takes up.

Because of the updated design and features many gamers have already noticed that this smart phone will surely enhance gaming experience. Beyond this, a host of Nexus S accessories have already sprung up by manufacturers who realize that this is a smart phone that people will want accessories for. Accessories such as a Nexus S case or a backup Nexus S battery are great options for people who want to be able to use their smart phones while on the go without having to worry about protecting them from injury or running out of energy.

Of course, you might also want things like an extra charger so you can charge your smart phone in your truck or car, but even if you do pick one of those up, having an extra battery or two handy can be a lifesaver in the odd situation where you really need to talk or game but just don’t have a charger nearby to make it happen.
