REVEALED: Full Specs of Google Nexus One

You want Google Nexus One details, you got it. Yesterday, we posted a Nexus One Android 2.1 walkthrough video, and today Engadget has managed to score a full spec sheet for the phone, as well as some details about its release date.
According to Engadget’s source, the phone will initially be available by “invitation only.” It looks like Google will be deciding who gets invites (hey, Google, call me), but the specifications also indicate that T-Mobile will be able to sell the phone directly to the customers in the future.

The Breakdown

---

Here are some highlights from the screenshots that Engadget posted:

• 512MB RAM, 512MB ROM, included 4GB microSD card, expandable to 32GB
• 5 megapixel camera with LED flash and mechanical autofocus
• 3.7″ WVGA AMOLED screen — in other words, as big as the Droid and brighter
• Worldwide GSM/EDGE, but 3G only on T-Mobile in the US (supports 2100, 1700 and 900 frequencies, meaning Europe should be covered)
• 1GHz Qualcomm chip — if accurate, that would make the Nexus One one of the fastest -  if not the fastest — smartphones on the market.
• Wi-Fi A/B//G/N
• Bluetooth 2.1
• GPS
• Accelerometer

The specs look solid, the phone matches or beats every competing Android phone on the market (aside from having no physical keyboard) and also compares quite favorably to the iPhone (faster processor, nicer screen, wireless-N).
The only caveat for potential U.S. buyers is that, barring some sort of firmware upgrade (assuming the 1900 band is just disabled), this phone will only work in 3G in T-Mobile’s network. If you live in a large city, that might not be a problem, but T-Mobile does have the smallest 3G footprint of any of the major U.S. wireless carriers.
For international users, this is really enticing, because the phone should be compatible with all UMTS bands in Europe, Asia, South America and Australia/New Zealand.
Now all we need is a solid release date and a price. My friend Dan is ready to buy this sight-unseen. What about you? What do you think of the Nexus One?
