I got the 3g last month, an upgrade from my blackberry pearl. My sister and I compared our phones (she has an iphone ). They pretty much rate similar, though my android has a slightly smaller screen. Both had similar speed. One positive, I have complete control over what appear I want, and the iphone doesn’t. And I love the marketplace for android
Since there is a bunch of apps that are mostly free. On a negative note, I’m still trying to get used to the touch screen….

to AgBand: I know that the Mytouch will have microsoft exchange capabilities… I believe the update has made that possible, im pretty sure the G1 has it too…

I don’t know guys. I’m getting the Mytouch and giving my wife my G1. to me it’s really about no keyboard. To all comparing this to Iphone 3Gs or Iphones in general, your crazy. Iphone is now at there 4th generation phone. while G1’s/android phones are still in there early stages. dont knock the phone by comparing it to big corporate “Apple”, at least not yet. I ove these phones and with t-mobile customer care, I never have an issue that isnt resolved fairly.

Yes, the packaging you see posted is actually the packaging that the customer will receive in the mail with their MyTouch 3G. The shiny black thing on the left side of the package is the charger, not an extra battery.

So many people, so many opinions, so here is mine… If you live in highly populated area (big city) most likely you have or will have access to Tmob 3G, if not, it is still being rolled out to many other areas soon. For people who complain about a 3.5 MM headphone jack, consider this…I beleive that having a phone that will last longer through my day without having to recharge is more important that using my phone as a PMP (mp3 player) and draining the battery, and for all you Iphone users out there dont even go there and say i use it as an ipod all day and browse web and talk and message and dont have to charge by mid day almost. Choose what you want a phone or a PMP batteries are not good enough yet to really accomodate both as of yet. The Magic looks good the form factor is great and the screen in just as big as the g1 which i love, BTW for the poster that said the virtual KB was hard to type on look in the android market for an app called better keyboard, it makes the VK much easier to use.

Tmo should have used the money to produce a 3.5mm jack instead of wasting it on a stupid fancy case that no one will use.

@dear chap Unfortunately not — still no flash, still no 3.5mm audio jack.

Zach is there a 3.5mm headset jack on this ??? Curious to know since the G1 didnt have it and was reported to be a major pain.

T-mo is a European company. Thus more advanced devices are released in Europe first. We in the US will get the lower models. Prime example, USA gets “The Dream” while Europe gets “Magic”. Next round, G2 in the US is actually the hand me down “Magic” while Europe will get the Huawei G3. Expect that G3 to come to the US around the same time next year. No regrets though becaus by the time we get the hand me downs, they’ve already upgraded the software *note, the hardware remains the European version.

@ashley,
Tmobile is still rolling out their 3G network. Here in Indianapolis, we won’t get 3G till Q3 of this year.

Does anyone know if a software update will come to the G1 with Exchange support since this is branded “with Google” and has support for Exchange? just curious because I had not heard anything.

I saw this phone at T-Mobile training today (my 1st day) and I like the form factor of it, but I wish the portrait keyboard was easier to type on like the iPhone. The landscape keyboard is a lot better and overall the phone performs pretty well. It has a nice weight and it is a little smaller than the iPhone. This is a great start for T-Mobile.

3.2meg cam Vs 5meg
No flash Vs LED flash
headphone adaptor Vs 3.5mm jack
No OLED Vs OLED screen

And up to 40GB in the Samsung too…

That’s quite a list…!

@Omar

I too live in KC, but don’t have 3G. That’s a sign it is pretty bad. They can’t even blanket every KC zip code, let alone Liberty and the other outlying cities.

Any word on HotSpot @ Home calling? This seems the be first 3G / WIFI phone on TMO so keeping fingers crossed…

Any other Tmo phones in the pipeline that are 3G and offer HotSpot calling?

To the folks saying “Galaxy has better specs”

You’re referring only to the camera, AMOLED, and memory right??

@ JoeTour:

Posters like you are lame. You make over generalizations of something you don’t understand.

Coverage is both relative and local to each user and their mileage may vary depending on location.

A T-Mobile user or soon to be user may or may not have good service at home/work/gym… but that is for him/her to decide/find out.

If you want to keep preaching hate from your little AT&T Authorized Dealer Mall Kiosk in a sad attempt to deflect the topic, then be my guest. You along with all the other sheep can keep overpaying MaBell for dropped calls, erratic coverage and poor customer service.

The choice is yours, really….

Still better than the Candians…

Obviously the UK being a much smaller, denser populated control, it’s probably much cheaper to operate a mobile network.

Monthly rates are ridiculous. We get raped on handset pricing and monthly rates in the U.S.
