T-Mobile G1 review: The whole cagoogle - read the full textThe T-Mobile G1 is the Googlephone. Did we really need to say that? Well, there's more Google in this story than there is phone, so we guess we did. We've got a new contender on the race track but we're talking no rookie here...

I think the phone is awesome, yeah it might be a bit big, but the features are fantastic, the reason for me saying that, it constently get new applications, when it first came out, it ciuldn't do video, now it can with an aplication you download, they're even developing a full on satnav with voice communication with it. i think it will beat the i-phone and future, because you can add features that improve the phone.

The phone has Bluetooth, but like Apple's iPhone, you can't use an external Bluetooth keyboard with it (yet). Good to see that Nokia provides this capability, though. Here's hoping that the Cupcake update addresses this shortfall.

One other problem: you can't buy this phone unlocked (at least officially).

@ christov
U sound like someone who has never really used the phone. The sliding mechanism is very solid. I have 'owned' the g1 since 10/21/08 and I have had no mechanical problems with the phone. Yea it could be a little sexier but it is actually a great device. If you've actual used it the touch screen on this thing is only bested by the iphone and that's only slightly. The web browser is amazing and android is getting more mature by the day. Battery life could be better but so could the iphone's. Pretty good review you guys (albeit a little late) the g1 is not perfect but its far from being the horrible device some ppl make it out 2 be

Had great expectation from HTC and Google on this one.
Nut they let a lot of folks down.

Have you tried the sliding mechanism? The main hinge is exposed!
Horrible build quality as far as I'm concerned and thats a no go area for me.

Seond nevertheless.
