Nexus One Tech Specs

Nexus One Tech Specs

Today Google announced the Nexus One phone where the web meets the phone.  Not to much new from what the websites have been posting and you can get one of the phones right now from T-Mobile by visiting http://google.com/phone

So from the looks at the specs it seems that you can encode your videos now for H.264 AVC which is great news with the Snapdragon CPU it in , it shouldn’t have a probably decoding video.  When we get our hands on one we will do some test encodes here and post our results.

Here are some specs that we are interested in and that’s the video and audio playback capabilities.

Another nice tidbit is the ability to Video captured at 720×480 pixels at 20 frames per second or higher, depending on lighting conditions.  Seems like we might be getting people shooting their own amateur porn and sending them over the internet with this new phone :)
