Is the Nexus S still competent today?

[DigitalE]

I'm looking to buy an Android phone in the $100-150 range, and a used Nexus S seems like it might be my best option. This phone will be a secondary device to my iPhone.

My requirements:

Either Sprint or T-Mobile (4G is a plus)

Able to run ICS/JB

GPS for navigation

Any thoughts?

Still a very good phone, and recently just got the official JB update.

still a very good phone... JB runs smoother than ICS on this device.

I'd get it if I had the chance. Still a good phone .

Yup i think you will be fine with it, its a good price and has just got the 4.1 update officially.

Even if Google decided not to give it the next version of Android it still has a massive following on XDA, so the phone will have many quality roms regardless.

Good to know. Now if only I could find a T-Mobile Nexus S for under $200.. :/

I would sell mine for less than $200 if google have released the next Nexus.

You should see a lot of Nexus S sales when google release the next Nexus.

Found a T-Mobile Nexus S (GT-i9020t) on Cowboom for only $150. Thanks for the advice, guys. Can't wait to play with Jelly Bean!
