The editors liked
Cool design
Built
In 25
Watt amp
Easy to setup
Boasts extreme "hack
Ability"
Hot looks the 4.6inch black sphere with a ring of dancing rainbow LEDs is beautiful to behold. Builtin amp delivers 12.5 watts at 8 ohms per channel
And sounds excellent through a variety of speakers. App support goes back to Android 2.3. It's hackable. Autocalibration feature uses your handset's microphone to sync video and audio. Those who embrace paradox are ultimately more interesting
The editors didn't like
Extremely expensive
Doesn't stream non
Google apps like Netflix
Pandora
MLB.TV
Or Hulu Plus
Only works with Android 4.1 Jelly Bean devices
Lack of support for popular software platforms
Hardware devices and streaming apps limits the experience. The price is a big turnoff. Google Play TV and Movies app needs work. Setup is not smooth and easy
Requires Ring of TFM. The "check back in a year and see if anyone's done anything interesting with it" line isn't an attractive proposition.

The Google Nexus Q features a truly unique, spherical design with glowing LEDs that respond to music that's playing. It streams content directly from Google Play Music, Google Play TV & Movies, and YouTube, using an Android phone or tablet as the controll
The Nexus Q is very expensive and doesn't stream from any non-Google services like Netflix, Pandora, Spotify, MLB.TV, or Amazon Instant, nor can it stream content from your own PC or DLNA server. It also requires an Android smartphone or tablet to control
The Nexus Q's striking, orblike hardware can't outweigh the extreme limitations of this Android-only, Google-only media streamer....
It's not for everyone, but you could dig the design of this thing. Look at the picture above—doesn't it look like a sentinel from The Matrix? Bad ass. Build quality on the orb is very solid. Setup was very easy (when it worked). Audio quality and picture
There are so many bugs in the system, it's hard to know where to begin. First off, the Q sometimes has trouble staying linked with the phone. Tested on two separate Qs, a phone, and a tablet, it had issues with every setup. The testing required factory re
No. Well, if 320kbps is just what you like, you have all of your music on Google Play, a fast internet connection, and $300 doesnt sound like much money for you, then sure. For everybody else, this would be a cool novelty item (or it will be if once the...
Abstract: AS CONSUMERS start to own more than one device, the need for a separate device to act as a central 'command centre' becomes more apparent in daily life. Google recently announced the Nexus Q at the I/O developer conference, a self-produced entertainment m...

Abstract: Auf der Entwicklerkonferenz I/O 2012 zeigte Google nicht nur sein neues 7-Zoll-Tablet, sondern mit dem Nexus Q auch ein Media-Center nach Google-Art. Eng verknüpft mit den Google-Diensten will es Apple-TV Konkurrenz machen.Googles Nexus Q Medien-Kugel sor...
einzigartiges Design, LEDBeleuchtung reagiert auf Musik, direktes Streaming von Google Play, AndroidGeräte als Fernbedienung, integrierter Verstärker,
sehr teuer, keine StreamingMöglichkeiten von NichtGoogleServices, kein Streaming von PC oder DLNAServer möglich, keine eigene Fernbedienung oder Oberfläche, daher AndroidDevice zum Steuern erforderlich,
Das außergewöhnliche und eindrucksvolle Design des Nexus Q kann leider nicht die krassen Einschränkungen wettmachen, die der auf Google-Dienste limitierte Media-Streamer mitbringt - jedenfalls nicht bei diesem Preispunkt. Fanden Sie diesen Testbericht...
