VentureBeat: HTC’s G1 Android phone up close: A nice touchable gadget

  • lalit Sharma · 1 year ago
    Are you kidding me, G1 looks like a brick. the 1.5 million pre-order is a rumor that was published by motley fool website last week. Even T-mobile has said yesterday that they don't have a number. If it was 1.5million they would have been announcing it in every newspaper possible.

    The 1.5 million number is wrong, and completely based on one Motley Fool article where the author guestimates. I love Venturebeat, can you guys please not just parrot a made-up number.

    Dean, you're a great reporter. Spend 10 minutes digging into that 1.5 figure, contact the author of the Motley Fool story and see how he came to it.

    you don't believe the 1.5 million number? HAHAHAHAHA

    Ending the review by saying the G1 is smaller than an iPhone doesn't exactly lend credibility to the other opinions within. While the G1 is indeed a great, solid phone with a usable and promising OS — it certainly isn't smaller than the iPhone by any stretch of the imagination.

    Only question: does the dual freak 3G mean it (3G) will work in Asia, Europe and USA? I need Europe and Asia, USA optional. Anyoine know?

    Thanks

    I am looking forward to experiencing the pros and cons for myself. I will return very soon with a personal opinion of my own to add to the many preceding post. For all of you super negative folks 'don't worry be happy". Life is good all the time.

    Delivery date set for my G1 on 10/21/2008 !

    I've been using my G1 for a few days now & I definitely like it a lot! The keyboard is very comfortable to use & even though I'm in an area that won't be running 3G til next year the EDGE network runs mighty fast on it, even while streaming on youtube. All in all I'm glad I took advantage of the presale that we had as T-Mobile employees

    Hope the phone preforms better than the wing and the touch. I had to return my wing 3 times before they gave me a shadow, it preforms better than the wing. There's more to life than the iphone you haters.

    All you apple sheep enjoy your junk phone. G1 baby!
  • Mr. T-Mobile · 1 year ago
    My G1 is on the way. Yaayyy, G1.

    Funny thing is I'm an Apple lover, I own two imac's and was trying to figure out how to get an iphone without having to leave T-Mobile but decided to get the G1 have had it for three days and I can't stop playing with it. I love this phone! It IS smaller than the iphone, I've held it next to my co-workers iphone. It's the apps that are going to make this gizmo the most fun out of all the smart phones in my opinion, just wait till you start downloading and playing with all the cool stuff : )
