According to a tweet from the official Google Nexus account, the update to the two Google phones has begun with the Nexus S and Nexus One both updating to Android 2.3.3. No word on which particular regions this update covers initially, but it’ll arrive over-the-air and should take “a few weeks”.
Here’s all of that again inside the 140 character limit:
Do let us know what happens on the European Nexus Ones out there. If anything.
The Panasonic Eluga marks the company’s return to the European mobile phone scene years after several years of absence, and it’s come back to us with a moderately high-spec Android model that features a rather stylish, slim case. The Eluga’s powered by a 1GHz dual-core Texas Instruments OMAP processor, which is running a 4.3″ OLED [...]
The HTC One V is HTC’s third entry in its high-profile new HTC One range, offering a smaller 3.7″ display running on a single-core 1GHz processor. It is is very much the “affordable” option in HTC’s newest Android series, but it still arrives running the same HTC Sense 4 interface we saw in the excellent [...]
HTC’s 4.3″ dual-core Android model, powered by Qualcomm’s all-new S4 processor. It’s smaller than the enormous One X, but is it as nice as its bigger brother? (SPOILER: Yes it is).
HTC is very much B-A-C-K at the top of the Android world with this, its quad-core flagship for 2012. Great camera, huge 4.7″ display and Android 4.0 running beautifully well.
Some camera samples taken with HTC’s quad-core Android monster.
Sony returns with an all-new mobile design for 2012, pairing a dual-core processor with a 720p display. It’s a lovely phone, but is it enough to end our Samsung and HTC obsession?
We’ve spent most of the last week captivated by the staggeringly sharp screen of the new Sony Xperia S, while putting together what will hopefully be something resembling a review for you all to read very shortly. In the meantime, to be getting on with, here are a few sample photos and videos, taken using [...]
LG’s updated Prada phone comes with an absolutely crazy black & white theme, but is it just for fashionable suit wearers who want to make themselves look a bit more interesting?
£30? For a phone case? It had better be good.
Samsung’s official Galaxy Nexus case. Costs a lot. Has a glittery little logo.
Fresh from reviewing the cheap and cheerful FlexiShield case for the Galaxy Nexus, we’re back with another protective offering from industry veteran Case-Mate. Although this particular product retails for around the same price as FlexiShield’s TPU option, it’s quite a different proposition. Review submitted by extremely patient retro gaming advisor Damo. As the name suggests, [...]
Seeing as we’ve just reviewed the brand spanking new Galaxy Nexus, we’re in the mood for some accessorising – and we don’t mean earnings and handbags. To that end, we’ll be covering a few Galaxy Nexus-themed items over the next few weeks, starting with the FlexiShield Case. Review submitted by reader, writer, gamer and occasional [...]

/ February 25, 2011Considering it took, what? 4 Months between the Nexus One getting Froyo and it finally getting released on the Desire, despite both phones being virtually identical under the hood, don’t hold your breath.

/ February 23, 2011Sadly Gingerbread breaks essential Tasker functionality. Don’t know about you but I’d rather have Tasker than Gingerbread on my Desire

/ February 28, 2011Nooooo! Without Tasker Android is back down to the (pitiful) level of iOS. No Gingerbread for me, thanks.

/ February 25, 2011Although I’ve been running an AOSP build on my Nexus One for the last couple of months, this release finally means the custom Android builders will finally be able to use Gingerbread-specific N1 drivers, instead of getting it to run with old Froyo drivers instead.
Roll on Cyanogenmod V7.0 final!

/ March 2, 2011Got my Nexus One OTA this morning. Seems to chew through the battery with no more than regular use. Much better keyboard though. And the newly black notification tab and renewed icons are more like those on the Desire, but nice to look at.
I thought the update might include the updated Nexus live wallpaper as seen on the Nexus S, but it hasn’t been updated – which is good, because I like the old one.

/ March 3, 2011Ive now gotten 2 OTA-updates. And my phone has crashed during the install (after the download). Does anyone here have a similar experience?
ups
/ March 3, 2011Got the OTA this morning. Looks nicer, the most visible changes are obviously the dark theme and new keyboard. Installed smoothly, no crashes experienced.
However the battery life seems to have drained faster – not sure if it was because I was playing around with it more than usual due to the new upgrade. Will see after a few days of usage and hope it is just that.

/ April 26, 2011Anyone in the UK get 2.3.3 on the nexus S? Surprised it hasn’t OTA updated on mine
