Very Capable PhoneReview created: 11/17/09

Probably the best phone I've ever had. I've used other smart phones based upon Windows Mobile as well as the Iphone.
The Android OS is extremely customizable and responsive. I don't have to wait for apps to load. An additional benefit for me as a programmer is that I can easily write my own app and integrate it into the system. (try that on an iphone)
I love the ability to hit the speak now on the search button and instantly speak what I'm looking for (eg. "Directions to Applebees") and it turns my words into text (Speech to text technology) and there is my search.
For use as a GPS device, you can't beat GPS + Google Maps. Add in Street View, Satellite view and you have one powerful GPS device.
App Store: Not only is the apps I want there, but there are multiple versions giving you the ability to pick and choose. You can easily find reviews on applications as well as the star rating to help you determine which app is right for you.
Camera: Strong camera, but I still prefer using a regular digital camera. I have a 12MP camera, why would I use one on my phone? However, I did take a few pictures on the phone to see how good the camera is and to be honest, it's best I've seen for a phone.
Video Viewing: No stutter at all on both videos stored on the device or from youtube.
On Screen Keyboard: I've typically stuck with phones with a built in full querty keyboard. This is the first time I choose a on screen keyboard. Took me a day or two to get used to and I like it.
Bottom Line: If you like Smart Phones, this is a good phone for you. If you're a programmer, I'd suggest this phone as well. If you are tired of being "punished" on the AT&T network by paying more just for using an IPhone.. this is a great phone. Also over the IPhone, Android supports multiple running programs at the same time.
PROs: Everything
CONs: Buy the black model. I'm not too keen on this white one

T-Mobile myTouch 3GReview created: 11/26/09

As a previously wireless retail seller for more than 6 years, I am writing this review in comparison to the BlackBerry Curve that I've been using for more than 2 years. With that said, I will certainly miss the applications available to myTouch since I plan on reselling it. I miss the "realtimeness" compared to the Blackberry. There are many free application downloads available to HTC's myTouch 3G, or the Android operating system for this matter. Google Sky Map is the coolest of all. By using GPS satellite positioning, it displays stars/planets coordinate information in real time by pointing to any direction. So after 3 weeks of use with myTouch 3G, here are the Pros and Cons listed below in my opinion:
Pros:
-Avaialbe Apps for the Android OS (Lots of free downloads)
-Fast 3G Network connection when 3G is availabe to my T-Mobile service
-Excellent resolution for video display and games
-OpenHome/AHome skins allow great customization flexibility
-Voice recognition system is fairly accurate in dectection of speech
Cons:
-Poor Battery Life (Must turn off 3G/Bluetooth/Wireless Location in order for the phone to last a full day of use)
-Emails can only be syncronized with server instead of push email
-No internet tethering feature
-OS performance can suffer from applications previously loaded or desktop icons (App Killer can fix this problem)

Best phone I ever owned2 of 2 people found this review helpful.
I can't say enough good things about this phone. Easy to learn. Lots of applications to download. I have been through just about every Treo and Windows mobile phone and was ready to throw in the towel on smartphones. This continues to amaze me every day -- 2 months into it.
The flip case is mandatory. Too much risk to the screen with the belt holsters and other gel skins.
T-mobile is back in my good graces now. I was ready to dump them after putting out the wing with known problems and then denying them.
While admittedly childish my favorite application is "pull my finger" which allows you to select from multiple realistic sound effects with an adjustable delay. You pick the sound and delay and set it down behind the person as you walk by. Takes everyone a while to figure out what happened. Never fails to lighten up a meeting or family get together.

Really cool phone. Does everything. I like the text messaging feature where it tracks you conversation. Although it's not the iphone it's a quality phone for the money.

Better than IPHONE & BlackberryReview created: 01/11/10

I'd been using Blackberry since last two yrs. This is a much better product.
Better sync between WiFi & GSM.
Great GPS Navigation System. Very accurate.
Free Apps are more than adequate for my purpose.
Thanks Google, HTC & T Mobile.

I really love the phone. It's hard to text at first since it's all touch screen, but gets easier with use. I don't have the internet connected currently, so once I get that connected I will be able to use all the apps. But without usage of the internet, it's still a nice phone. But to take full advantage of all the unique and helpful features, I recommend internet connectivity.

This phone is powered by android google os for mobile phones. that sums up how technologically advanced this is compared to the competition.
This also means i can support small/beginner entrepreneurs and not pay to apple unlike iphone. if google does turn out to be evil though your entire social and personal life is on the phone. ;-P

I got a contract with Tmobile not too long ago and I bought a white Mytouch. I traded the Mytouch for the Iphone and I regreted the trade so bad. The Mytouch is way better than the Iphone.
