The T-Mobile myTouch 3G is one of the new touch phones to be launched sometime later this year. Set to be one of the better looking phones in the series, expectations for this device are skyrocketing high. The sleek curvy T-Mobile myTouch 3G is a massive improvement from its predecessor, the boxy, bulky T-Mobile G1. The large trackball allows you to access all the features of the T-Mobile myTouch 3G with ease. The 3.2 inch screen is vivid and bright with excellent detail.
Moving on from the skin deep specifications, the Android user interface is one of the best in the market right now. In terms of software, there is nothing really new with the T-Mobile myTouch 3G , so if you have the T-Mobile G1 and don’t really mind the bulk that much, there is really no reason for you to go for this phone. The home screen is easily customizable as you can add applications and folders to the panels easily with the tiniest flick of your finger! This gives you easy and efficient access to all the features of the phone through the basic interface elements, so if there is anything that you have to change in the favorites menu, you can easily do so.
Another edge that the T-Mobile myTouch 3G has over its predecessor is that the small change in hardware has resulted in better call quality. Reception was pretty good with the full four bars usually present. Battery life was also better as the phone had a talk item of about 6.5 hours which is shocking for a 3G phone! Media features were also quite sound with a decent media player and a 3.2 MP camera which could be used to capture a few photos here and there. The best software features is its web browsing capability as the Web browser that comes with the phone is top class.
Ah, those giddy days when the HTC Magic was blogged about on these very pages. The date was 15th July 2009, a distant age of innocence and happiness when it seemed the summer would never end, and we were all excited about the possibilities that the various Google-Android-powered functions that phone could offer. How we could use it to find pubs and kebab shops, for example.
Well, now it’s the turn of the T-Mobile myTouch 3G to be blogged about and, well, those distant days of the HTC Magic suddenly seem all the more closer and more distinct as we realise that the myTouch 3G is nothing but the HTC Magic. Literally. It’s exactly the same phone, just with T-Mobile branding on the front and some T-Mobile skinning on the UI.
So, there we have it. You already know all about the T-Mobile myTouch 3G because we already told you all about the HTC Magic. Need some memory refreshing? Try the official site. Or this T-Mobile myTouch 3G review. Or this so-grating-you-want-to-punch-your-screen video below. In the meantime we’re going to close our eyes, drink some Pimms, turn up the heat and imagine it was summer once again. Ah, the 15th July, how we miss you so very much.
