T-Mobile Reviews Round-up
Gadgetizer.com — ... are iPhone rivals - but the truth is, both of those phones fail miserably when truly compared to Apple’s phone..and both of them look like knock-off imitations. The G1, on the other hand, is a entirely new force, and is a really compelling, innovative, and unique product. The phone will officially be out in the wild next Weds, and reviews are starting to come in from a variety of places. So here’s a round-up of some of the best looks at the phone. Engadget - The team over at Engadget has written a massive review, covering all aspects of the device. ...

T-Mobile G1 reviews wrapup - verdicts mixed
Gear Diary — ... ( My Summary: Integration with Google services is tight, Google Maps is amazing- too bad the GPS doesn’t work, 3G coverage in San Diego “atrocious”, no handling of multiple Google accounts) Engadget - T-Mobile G1 Review (My Summary: Mini-USB headphone connector is going to get old quick, rotten 3G reception, screen outstanding, GPS not ready for primetime, T-Mobile 3G not ready for primetime.)

Initial Reviews of Android-based G1 Phone: It Does Not Look Good but It Does Not Matter
Profy — ... gadget for a while. But that was basically about it until yesterday when embargo lifted and bloggers that received the G1 phones from T-Mobile to review started to publish their opinions. Now that those T-Mobile customers who have preordered the phone are even more eager since they will probably receive their phones as soon as on Friday, these reviews are definitely worth reading for everyone contemplating the purchase. So a number of bloggers and reporters (from Engadget, Gizmodo, GigaOM, Los Angeles Times, and other media outlets) ...

T-Mobile G1 review - Engadget
Mobility Site — Engadget has published the most complete review about the T-Mobile G1 that I have read. The G1 isn’t going to blow anyone’s mind right out of the gate. Looking only at the hardware, there’s nothing here that’s particularly impressive, yet nothing that’s particularly bad (though the GPS needs some work). It’s a fine, solidly designed device that has enough style to please most users — but it won’t win a ton of beauty pageants. Think of it this way: if it were running Windows ...

With this in mind the guys over at Engadget have giving the T-Mobile G1 not one but two in-depth reviews, so nip on over to the source and check them out. Source – Engadget ...

T-Mobile’s G1 Android Phone: The Reviews Are In
Technologizer — ... plan is cheaper than AT&T; smooth touch interface; flexible and customizable desktop; much easier to place a call than with iPhone; browser is good; has MMS and cut and paste; battery life about the same as iPhone; Android Market app store is good; it’s a brick of a device; skimps on memory; very tied to Google services and doesn’t support Microsoft Exchange; T-Mobile 3G network only available in 20 cities; iPhone 3G on AT&T consistently faster for data. Overall, a good first try. Joshua Topolsky, Engadget : Charmingly retro-looking hardware; trackball better than expected; ...

The G1 Review - Super Mega Ultra Deluxe Meta Edition
AndroidGuys — ... “There is tremendous potential for this OS on mobile devices — it truly realizes the open ideals laid out by Google when they announced this project. The only problem seems to be the stuff they either left on the back burner, cutting room floor, or hoped would come from that exciting, untapped world of open source developers.”  Engadget ...

G1 Reviews
dailywireless.org — ... as Apple’s iPhone. Just days after going on pre-sale the G1 sold out, which sent T-Mobile scrambling to place more orders. The amount of units pre-sold is reported to be around 1.5 million. It took 74 days for Apple to hit a million iPhones. But Engadget says T-Mobile’s G1 presales aren’t “even close” to 1.5M, a figure Motley Fool came up with. The reviews are coming in. Here’s a rundown from C/Net, Engadget, Gizmodo, Gigaom, TechCrunch, ZD Net, David ...

G1 Gphone Reviews Are In: As Good As the iPhone, Or Not Quite Ready?
Andy Beal's Marketing Pilgrim — ... iPhone users and Android could learn a lesson or ten from it. The hardware design is dated and while the touch-screen and keyboard are great you can’t just forget about the wretched battery life, horrible GPS and the overall ergonomics of it. I wish the G1 were better in every respect because I don’t think the iPhone is that great, but I find myself wishing it were more like it. It’s the best alternative to the iPhone, but it’s just not there yet. Joshua Topolsky, Engadget: At the end of the day, however, this isn’t about the ...

Android to get touchscreen keyboard soon-ish
Engadget Mobile — ... The G1 certainly has a lot going for it, but we were a bit taken aback by its lack of an on-screen keyboard -- even a short text requires you to flip the screen out and hit the physical keys. That looks like it might change soon, though -- a rough roadmap posted on the ...

Google Android G1 review
T3.com All — ... or Engadget for their takes on one of the biggest handsets of the year. The G1 is a smart choice for anyone who doesn't want an iPhone, whether that be due to the O2 exclusivity, the fact they're an Apple hater, or they despise the lack of truly open source applications on offer. The G1 is a fair alternative to the iPhone, but also a darn good phone in its own right. The best thing about it is it'll only get better, with the Android Marketplace launching properly next January, and thousands, if not millions, of people creating and adding to the rich Android platform. The ...

T-Mobile G1 launched in the UK
Engadget Mobile — ... , Android fans in the UK will be getting their chance to purchase the T-Mobile handset starting today. Britons began queuing up on Oxford Street as early as 5 am to get the phone, currently available for free with a 2-year £40 ($65) monthly contract. And if that wasn't exciting enough, The Gadget Inspectors went to Google's London HQ for a hands-on review (nothing new to Engadget die-hards, but it's interesting to see what they make of the device). Video after the break. ...
