T-Mobile G2 Review Part 1

[SamKnowsTech]

The G2 Bliss Rom on theunlockr will remove them all for you.

[HoboJerico]

Oh god, you've lost so much weight! LOL. :D

[Kaiserzentrip]

i still want this phone.. i didn't like the newer one.. it didn't have the slider keyboard thing :/

[bconover93]

@Kaiserzentrip if you want a keyboard on t-mobile, you should go with the mytouch 4g slide. the g2 is a little dated

[jonlad3rd]

is this phone still a good phone these days?

[bconover93]

@jonlad3rd it's all right. you could obviously get better. but the G2's still a decent phone.

[iimFasterrr]

@bconover93 what do you recomend??? i just want a fast phone that has a good speed and with a keyboard

[bconover93]

@iimFasterrr T-Mobile: MyTouch 4G Slide

AT&T: Samsung Captivate Glide

Verizon: Motorola Droid 4

Sprint: Samsung Epic 4G or Motorola Admiral (portrait keyboard)

[iimFasterrr]

@bconover93 thanks

[yurdingus]

i had this phone for a year and had to replace it 3 times for the screen breaking. its a really underable phone. i also have been typing on the key board and it will send me to random places on my phone

[yankee77100]

its got wifi?

[TheIgnorantBastrd]

fuck i want this phone

[Xavi997]

WTF FATASS. now hes amazingly thin

[RajoJenkinz]

this or sidekick 4g?

[ACH805]

Does this phone have 4g capability?

[TrollShutup]

@ACH805 yes

[fernandobo009]

have you guys see this guy now? hes like super skinny

[upsguyz]

this phone sucks now g2x

[217ShowOffBoii]

My only problem with this phone is that it randomly turns off. why is that?

[Carlosaddisosa]

This is honestly one of the best androids I've owned. Love the keyboard and how the processor conserves battery. I have never had a problem with the hinge. Its something that was blown out of porportion. You'll never hold the phone this way with normal use.

[thecheetodude24]

i just got this today.... was it a bad idea?

[mintkendishin]

@thecheetodude24 no it wasnt........its a great phone



[ricangirl911duh]

@thecheetodude24

[thecheetodude24]

@ricangirl911duh its a great phone. it can be a little thick at one point, and you might feel like you have an outdated phone, but its actually a pretty smooth phone, especially when rooted and overclocked to 1.2 GHz. love the phone :D

[ricangirl911duh]

@thecheetodude24

- really ? what can this phone

do that is cool .. like what kind

of things does it have ? does it freeze

[thecheetodude24]

[dakeshon]

[Sanitaruim444]

Can I get this phone on the T-Mobile no contract?

[BestPrankCaller]

DONT GET THE SIDEKICK 4G. it spazzes out all the time and the trackball messes u up while u text and do other stuff. its super annoying. i got rid of mine. I REPEAT DONT GET THE SIDEKICK 4G

[theandyandsamyshow]

[dp163435]

[theandyandsamyshow]

"froyo" ...................... um. what..thefuck

[omgisthatjoshua]

@theandyandsamyshow Frozen Yogurt................Froyo

[theandyandsamyshow]

@omgisthatjoshua wow i had no idea thats what it meant.... i meant its annoying when he says froyo in that voice...

[PDExplorer193]

should i pay 300 for a galaxy s 4g or get this for 150. i mean the extra 200 mHz cant hurt, but is it worth the extra 150?

[symoneraven65]

Lmao at that voice you keep making

[jaferhassan]

and u can actually manually uninstall them like going into the files and removing them :l, thats what i did to my iphone

[ApplepieTASTIC]

wth.. dude fuck no.... @0:15

[xNBAChamp]

G2 or Mytouch 4g ? (:

[jaferhassan]

@xNBAChamp prob g2, since it looks better, and the keyboard is better, and it feels less "cheap"

[xNBAChamp]

@jaferhassan thanks

[EpicTbager]

guys hes a good reviewer

[ArchieFan42192]

I have the REQ 200 MB 4G data plan, is that plan compatible with this phone? PLEASE RESPOND!!!!

[ArchieFan42192]

I currently have the HTC HD7 and I absolutely hate it, because I can't customize it at all. It wont let me install any applicatiolns from the marketplace. Would this be a nice upgrade? I really want the QWERTY keyboard!!

[YoungstaD713]

@ArchieFan42192 hahah yeah someone wanted to trade me hd7 for my brand new G2..but i dunno..G2 Updated andriod 2.3.4 so bad asssssssssssssss

[ArchieFan42192]

@YoungstaD713 I want the G2 so bad, so I will try to get a used one off of eBay in September, since they are so expensive brand new. Oh, and the touch sensitive buttons are really annoying, I would in the middle of playing a game or something, and I accidently would hit the bing search button. Drives me crazy!!

[theandyandsamyshow]

i just got the lg optimus t and the thing i miss the most is the keyboard on my sidekick lool omg so much easier to text

[justinnv00]

What's better the g2 or galaxy s 4g?

[WassupDL66]

@justinnv00 Galaxy S 4G. G2 was released like last year.

[tommybonds3]

Is the keyboard hatch bad? Or is it just 2 loose. I might get 1 tomorrow. Also is the screen glass or plastic?

[akirolok]

@tommybonds3 it's not a bad set up, and glass, i've shattered mine a few times already

[ricangirl911duh]

@tommybonds3

- It's not loose, if your upside down,

it closes . Pls tell me about how the

phone is since you have 1

[tommybonds3]

Is the hatch really bad. Or just not tightened enough? I might get 1 tomorrow

[ipodplaya]

I have had my G2 for 2 or 3 Months now, and I absolutely love it.

[edgar55drop]

should i get the tmobile g2 or blackberry 9780 ? and what are the pros and cons

[dmetree3]

i need help! im not looking for a phone that the manufactures main goal was speed but i need help on making a decision on the g2,g2x or the htc sensation 4g any have a suggestion?

[robby123ism]

@dmetree3 depends if u like keyboards then go for the g2 the g2x is the same speed but runs on 4g both are very good

[ipodplaya]

@robby123ism G2 is the first HSPA+ device on T-Mobile. (HSPA+ meaning 4G, they are both 4G, the deciding factor is if you want a keyboard or not.)

[IaMmE1219]

@darkus447

[IaMmE1219]

[henryXdorky]

[voteboo]

Froyo??? What's wrong with the word?? Geez man, leave the word alone. You suck as a party started. A non-popular guy speaking in the vid, obviously.

[daafies2]

cyanogenmod that shit

[buffpatto1987]

This phone is a few months old, but is it really worth getting right now? Let me hear your opinions. Should i wait for another G2 from T-mobile?

[PrinceT300]

man i wish i had a high end smart phone...

[PCGamerNET]

noah should've done this review before he quit.

[MrJustinb8]

what happened to noah when i watched the unboxing of this phone noah was there where is he now why is aaron doing the review

[Thematthewrox123]

wtf? whats froyo

????????

[SlackDaddy2009]

I stopped watching @0:15

[EpicTbager]

@SlackDaddy2009 thats fucked up

[laszikivan]

Googled all night long, managed to root the phone and got rid of all the social networking apps, and google apps and many more. Now this phone has potential.

[laszikivan]

Real shame that you cannot uninstall preinstalled apps. I really would throw out facebook, twitter and all the google applications.

[MrsRocRoyal4Evah]

im getting this fone on march 14 2011 i knt wait after softball practice 2

[kakulukia2009]

you arent pointing you are showing

btw captivate has a batter battery cover removing method than vibrant

[metalmilo12]

you can actually delete pre installed apps by going to setting then applications and you can delete them there.

[jpinline]

wtf its an htc desire z

[pure382]

@jpinline this

[jpinline]

@pure382 yes in europe, just like the g1 thats the htc hero in europe

[pure382]

@jpinline oh really its the desire here in america but i suppose u know that now lol

[nowyourot]

I've seen dozens of soccor mom's with this phone xD

[Merf1195]

I don't text upside down either.

[djhixson88]

Anyone know how good the push notifications for Facebook work? I saw on Android market that Android 2.2 users can get push notifications from Facebook. I know the iPhone and iPod touch's push notifications work good. But since I'm pretty much stuck with T-Mobile I figured I'd ask how good the push notifications for Facebook work lol

[Sergeant6oogle]

Your Cellside is slow, dunno why, but i've got 5 Mbit/s Down and 2,1 Mbit Up with NORMAL HSPA here overseas with Vodafone in Germany... still waiting for LTE ! xD

[FREDsuxBADLY0]

I GOT THIS PHONE AND IM TRYING TO FIND OUT HOW TO JAIL BREAK IT PLZ HELP

[SWGuruu]

@FREDsuxBADLY0 it's calling rooting one, and check out the XDA forums. they're usually the first ones to have it rooted and all types of shit

[Boxterr17]

@FREDsuxBADLY0 you cant jail break an android phone lmao its open source. i hvae this phone too :) and do you mean ROOT? like root your phone? idk why you would do that, android pretty awesome by itself, and if you dont know what your doing, youll just brick your phone. Bricking=not good at all. If you really need it, just google how to root g2 or something.

[narutoswd1]

noah left to go to techno buffalo



[narutoswd1]

[TheG24]

[dphan16]

[Pimetalz]

@dphan16 Yes, it has a landscape onscreen keyboard.

[mmedina1114]

[ninja2231]

DA G2 IZ DA BEAST

[iPodTouch1024]

how is the captivates battery cover hard to remove?

[physchohead24]

@neverendinggamer OK so everybody has been saying they want noah back on several videos. What happened to noah?!?! I dont get it

[chump693]

Question! Regarding to "Locations" by HTC, does that apply to the T-mobile G2 model as well?- having saved maps so you don't need data? Does using GPS require data? Thanks!

[aitchh1]

@neverendinggamer i acdently voted down,,,i ment to vote,,,uppppp!!!!!:]]

[noobwalker93]

can you please stop saying froyo like that it's irritating honestly..

[enava009]

@noobwalker93 shut up dude no one cares how he says it as long as he's reviewing the actual phone. get a lifee

[Merf1195]

@noobwalker93 I'm with you dude, Froyo sounds like somebody farted in the room, you know like: Mickey froyoed!
