T-Mobile G2 Touch Launched
Thursday, 30 July 2009
The T-Mobile G2 Touch is out now. On other mobile phone networks this handset is often known as the HTC Hero and is usually in a graphite colour. T-Mobile have an exclusive black colour! On T-Mobile it will be called the T-Mobile G2 Touch, following on from the first Google Android handset launched on T-Mobile last year, the T-Mobile G1. I thought the HTC Magic on Vodafone would be considered the G2, it being the second Android phone, so it's a little bit confusing!
Anyway, this looks to be the best Android handset launched yet!
Here are some of the features:
* 5MP Camera - Get great shots with the 5 megapixel camera and upload to Facebook, Flickr and Twitter with one touch
* Check out your friends' online albums in the live gallery
* Communicate your way using the large interactive touchscreen
* Teflon coated screen
* Redesigned Android interface to make it even easier to find your favourite apps.
I am a bit jealous as I have only just got the HTC Magic. This handset looks better in every department! I am loving the Google Android O/S though, and there are lots of cool applications to download.
FREE from £35/month on T-Mobile UK

Touchscreens at War ? but Which is the Best?
Tuesday, 18 November 2008
Nowadays touchscreen cellular phones are seen as trendy by a large portion of consumers, but there are so many different brands on the market that it?s difficult to decide which one is the best for you, especially if you?re contemplating your first touchscreen purchase.
One of the more well-known brands is the iPhone, which has set a high standard of expectations for consumers. Many of the newer brands simply can?t compete, despite trying hard to do so, but there are two new models that just might be able to keep up with the iPhone, if not surpass it to set a new standard of expectations ? these are none other than the BlackBerry Storm and the T-Mobile G1.
The BlackBerry boasts a high-quality screen perfect for watching videos, and a 3.2-megapixel camera that acts as a camcorder, while the iPhone is unable to play certain videos online due to lack of Flash support and has a poor quality 2-megapixel camera that can?t capture video. Sure, maybe you?re not buying a touchscreen for the camera quality, but how often do you have the urge to snap up an unexpected incident?
Let?s not forget the G1?s slide-out QWERTY keyboard for ultra-fast typing, and the BlackBerry?s touchscreen that lends the feel of physical buttons, against the iPhone?s virtual keyboard that?s difficult to work with, has no copy and paste capabilities, and is unable to receive or send picture text messages.
The BlackBerry can also be used as a modem, and although the T-Mobile G1 isn?t quite as stylish as some of the other models, it can run several programmes at the same time and is easy to navigate. So while established brands like iPhone may be an instinctive choice, but it may very well be worth your while to try something new this time.
