Nexus S je vybavený prvotriednou dotykovou zobrazovacou technológiou spoločnosti Samsung Super AMOLED, ktorá prináša dokonalý obraz. Zaoblený štvorpalcový kontúrový displej je ergonomickejší a lepšie sa drží pri uchu. Nový Nexus S ďalej využíva technológiu Near Field Communication (NFC), s ktorej pomocou možno získavať informácie z predmetov každodennej potreby, ako sú nálepky a plagáty osadené čipmi NFC. Vďaka 1 GHz aplikačnému procesoru od Samsungu prináša telefón vynikajúcu 3D grafiku, umožňuje rýchlejšie sťahovanie, načítanie a podporuje multimediálny obsah vo vysokom rozlíšení. 

Zadná strana telefónu Nexus S je vybavená 5-megapixelovým fotoaparátom a videokamerou, predná strana VGA fotoaparátom. Okrem toho má gyroskopický snímač, ktorý zaručuje plynulé, ničím nerušené hranie hier s možnosťou zapojiť do hry nakláňanie prístroja. Telefón má k dispozícii 16 GB internej pamäte. 

Android 2.3 Gingerbread je zatiaľ najrýchlejšia verzia tejto platformy. Ponúka podporu pre Near Field Communication (NFC), novú zdokonalenú klávesnicu s možnosťou viacdotykového ovládania, internetové volania (podpora VoIP/SIP) a nové prehľadné užívateľské rozhranie. Nexus S disponuje aj obľúbenými funkciami Androidu, ako sú prenosný Wi-Fi hotspot, skutočný multitasking, prístup k mobilným službám Google (napr. Google Search™, Gmail™, Google Maps™ s navigáciou, hlasové ovládanie, Google Voice™ a YouTube™) a prístup k viac než 100,000 aplikáciám a widgetov na Android Market

Gingerbread pre-installed

Nexus S is the first phone to run Gingerbread, the fastest version of Android yet.

Gingerbread builds on some of the most popular Android features like multi-tasking and Wi-Fi hotspot and adds a refreshed user interface, an improved keyboard, near field communication (NFC) support, and more.

Fast just got faster

1 GHz Hummingbird processor paired with 16GB of internal memory makes Nexus S one of the fastest phones on the market.

Menus open faster, tabs are more responsive, and web pages load quicker with virtually no lag time. Switch between apps effortlessly with true multitasking on Android.

Nexus S has a dedicated Graphics Processing Unit (GPU). Playing mobile games, browsing the web, and watching videos are fast, fluid, and smooth. It's like having a pocket-sized multimedia and game console.

 

Brilliant 4” Contour Display

Nexus S is manufactured by Samsung, and it is the first smartphone to launch with a Contour Display. The curved glass screen fits comfortably in the palm of your hand and along the side of your face.
A brighter screen with higher contrast means colors are incredibly vibrant, text is crisp at any size, and luminance is up to 1.5x higher than conventional LCD displays.

 

Outdoor veiwing
Take Nexus S outside, there's 75% less glare than on other smartphone displays. Your videos, pictures and games look their best and the sun won't wash them out.

Lighter and thinner profile
The Contour Display uses a thin-profile glass panel, making Nexus S uniquely slim and trim. It's subtle but you'll notice.

Rear and front-facing cameras
The rear-facing 5 megapixel camera is capable of taking stunning pictures and videos that you can share with friends and family. The front-facing camera can take VGA quality images and video.

Near Field Communication (NFC)
Nexus S can read information from "smart" tags, or everyday objects that have NFC chips in them. These can be anything from stickers and movie posters to t-shirts.
