If you were waiting for the Nexus One backlash, it has arrived. There have been loads of complaint articles and flooded forum postings over the last week about various issues, now the all-too-common complaint about network speed is hitting the new Google phone.
The complaint states that users are dealing with their phones dropping out of 3G mode and into the slower 2G EDGE network. This seems to be happening in areas where other T-Mobile phones are able to access the 3G network without issue. According to one user quoted in the article:
I’m having this same problem. My G1 has 3G with full strength, but sitting right next to it my Nexus has 1 bar of 3G and keeps switching to Edge… I’m at the point where I’m about to send this thing back. It ruins the whole experience if I can’t ever stay on 3G for more than a few seconds.
It is not clear what is causing the issue, but quick checks of forums and user groups shows an increasing frustration about this – and several other issues.
How about you – are you seeing 3G connection issues with your Nexus One?
