ASUS G1 AK005P

The Jolly-Good G1

Advantages: A very wide range of features
Disadvantages: Doing too much causes the battery to die quickly, Poor Camera

The T-Mobile G1 is my first foray into the world of smart phones. Previously a keen Sony Ericsson Walkman phone user, I wasn?t too sure how I?d adjust to such a dramatically different phone. Honesty, I adjusted quite well. The G1 takes a bit of time to get used to but I don?t regret my decision. Appearance and Design The G1 has a rather simple design. It has a 3.2 inch screen and is 117.7 mm in length, 55.7 mm in width and 17.1 mm in thickness. Below the screen is a menu button, answer and cancel call buttons, a back button, a button tacking you back to the home screen and a trackball. Beneath this row of button is space for the phones? 1GB memory card. The G1 features a QWERTY keyboard (making writing anything so very quick and simple) which you can access by easily sliding the screen across, this also changes the orientation ...

Review of T-Mobile G1

T-Mobile G1 - Balanced Review

Advantages: Youtube, 3G, fast, small, brilliant
Disadvantages: Battery Life, Weight

The T-Mobile G1 is an exceptional device which allows you to do everything that you need when you need to do it. In the UK, the device comes with Unlimited Internet Usage, 'Unlimited' Meaning 1GB a Month of Bandwith, and the ability to access all of the applications avaliable on the Application Market. The Application Market is an online section, accessable via the mobile phone, to download various tools, games and various other types of apps, that can be executed on the mobile. Most of the applications are free, however; there are some that charge a small one-time fee, usually less than £1.50 (US $1.99). In my honest opinion the ability to add things, mostly for free, onto your mobile is a major bonus. The phone also ships with a Youtube application, and using the 3G Internet connection that the phone is compatable with, streams High ...

Review of T-Mobile G1

The G1... Gets A G- From Me!

Advantages: Android Market, Google Maps
Disadvantages: Design, Unresponsive Screen, Bad Keypad Layout, Bad Battery Life

I have been due for an upgrade since September, but am still waiting for the release of the phone I really want, I rang up to see if there was any release date set for it but was told there was still no date set, but would I like to charge the T Mobile G1 instead?! I haven't really been interested in this phone because of having read a few reviews, and looking the spec etc up myself, it just wasn't something that appealed to me. I said I'd prefer to just wait but the sales guy said I could try it for 7 days and if it wasn't to my liking, I could send back and there'd be no difference in my account status, so after a bit of persuasion, I agreed. The phone is the result of a joint partnership between T Mobile (operator) and Google (operating system), however the actual handset is made by HTC who regularly make phones to be rebranded by ...
