T-Mobile myTouch 3G – Big Improvement over the G1

Released as the follow-up to the T-Mobile G1, T-Mobile myTouch 3G is the world’s second smartphone running on Google’s Android operating system. In addition to the latest Android software, the myTouch, also known as HTC Magic, also boasts a slimmer and lighter design, home screen personalization feature, a virtual keyboard and an expandable memory slot.

The myTouch has a 3.2" capacitive touchscreen display supporting 320 x 480 pixels. Equipped with an accelerometer, the myTouch will automatically shift the virtual QWERTY keyboard from portrait to landscape when it is tilted sideways. Besides, the phone’s personalization feature allows you to customize the background on the home screen. Not only users can download different applications, they can also organize the application icons on the menu by dragging and dropping.

Text and messaging features are fully packed, as the myTouch offers SMS, MMS, IMAP/POP email and Instant Messaging (Gtalk, AIM, Yahoo and MSN Live). The new phone also shows improvement over the G1 with the Microsoft Exchange support for email. Typing is made fast and comfortable using the virtual keyboard, which gives you haptic vibration feedback during text input. The handset also comes loaded with applications such as Google Apps, and provides access to the Android Market where users can find 5,000 applications for downloading.

As for connectivity, the GSM quad-band phone supports fast-speed HSDPA 3G Internet, stereo Bluetooth, Wi-Fi and a mini-USB port for connecting to a PC. It comes with 512MB internal memory that is flexible up to 16GB with the use of Micro SD memory card. It also sports a full HTML browser, TeleNav GPS Navigator, Google Maps and a built-in music player.

As a slimmer version of the G1, the myTouch weighs 4.09 ounces and measures 4.45 x 2.19 x 0.54 inches (H x W x D). The built-in 3.2-megapixel camera comes with auto-focus, geo-tagging and video recording capabilities. Users can shoot photos and video and share them with others on YouTube and Picasa. Nevertheless, like the G1, the myTouch lacks a camera flash or a standard 3.5mm audio jack.

Overall, with its sleek design and interface, improved features and great performance, the T-Mobile MyTouch 3G will not let you down if you have been longing for the upgraded version of the first Android smartphone.
