Nexus S outed, but Samsung refers to it as the Nexus 2
As you may have seen or heard, the rumored Samsung Nexus S has become somewhat official. BGR released some never before seen images of the Nexus S today. What's just as interesting however is that Samsung refers to this phone on their own internal documentation as the Nexus 2. How do we know? Well I cant read Korean but our forum member alzakx can... and here's what he has to say:

The second sticker, the word written there sounds like... tan ta taaaaan... NECCHEOS. So that would be probably translated as Nexus. Noticed the 2 at the end? So that reads Nexus 2.
There you have it. You wanted to know what is looked like? There... the Nexus 2.
So the name is still up for debate, IMHO.

I think they should rename it
Generic Black Plastic Phone That Looks Like It's Made By Fisher Price hardware revision 9001.
Far more suitable and far less detrimental to the Nexus name.

Big let down by Google. The plastic look is very unbecoming. Will be interesting to see what the spec's are though.
Guess I will have to baby my N1 to make sure it survives until a worthy successor comes out.

This brings SHAME and DISHONOR to the Nexus line/name.
It doesn't even look high end (please get rid of the plastic!), it looks luck just another Samsung Galaxy S variant...
@Dragongunner: Yes, I'll be baby-ing my N1 too now.

Galaxy Nexus? I like Nexus prime more. Even the code name "Maguro" seemed cooler.

I am also unimpressed by this phone and hope this is just an unconfirmed rumor.

Overall, its just as cheap looking as the other Galaxy S phones. Certainly not worthy of the Nexus name.
