The 800mhz is faster than the 1ghz one. mhz doesn't matter. a 1ghz processor can be slower then a 800mhz one, only if the 800mhz one is highly optimized. Which it is, that's why it's a lot faster.
cool here in mexico i was quiestioning myself if i get desire (mexus one but whit sense) or this and im gonna get this i love keyboards in smartphones

This is a very good review, but you really need to invest in a small tripod or something - the movement of the camera made it really difficult to watch.
Well I'm not trying to be biased orvanything, but I've overclocked my G2 and used setCPU to get the battery life to run just as long as it did, maybe even longer, then it did out of the box. N1 is still a great phone, but I haven't been able to get it to show scores as high as the G2. I'm just saiyan.
@dan1996DO you do realize that the G2 will also receive gingerbread right around the time the nexus one will get it. besides, its not about the number before the processor. its about the processor itself. sure, the speed does give some indication of what kind of performance you're gonna get. but a 2nd gen snapdragon processor is gonna be stronger than a 1st gen snapdragon.
@jugarnaut40 true, but they both skiped the cpu test so we can't tell forsure.concidering that they'll both get 2.3 at pritty much the same time means that we can't choose from a software percpective, leaving the different types of processors.the g2 may be 2 gen but i'm still not sure if that compensates for the slower cpu speed...
ofcourse you can overclock it to 2ghz but the battery will take the punishment.
if you get the g2 is there any way to get htc sense on it? tbh when you open up the apps page the g2 it looks so much cooler the apps look like they're rolling, the htc sense one looks dated :/
I got this Phone, I love it..the best phone that's out right now..yes it is better than the evo, and even better than the droid x, no phone can touch this masterpeice from htc
@naronethomas is the hinge weak, i really like this phone but i heard a lot of complaints about the hinge, and if the hinge is weak and suddenly breaks after daily wear n tear then theres no point in having a slide out keyboard
@iLYK2PWN a lot of people had a problem with one of the first batches of the phones, but HTC responded, so the issue has been fixed and new ones that are sent out have the durable hinge that works correctly and isn't weak
I have a question, does it feels tight the t-mobile g2, is that i have de mytouch slide, and i dos not feel tight, i don´t know wich phone to buy.. please help
@FalloutProductions1 G2 has over clocked at just under 1600mhps. Galaxy s is only about 1300 or so at best. Sure, it has a better resolution, I won't deny that. But overall, G2 > Galaxy s.
@therealSykosis LOL, honestly I had an N1 and sold it 3 months ago, got the Vibrant, couldn't stand that device, sold it last week, and got the G2. the G2 is fantastic man, in every sense of the word, there's not enough to say about it. Definitely the best phone for TMobile right now and arguably imo the best Android device out right now.
@krazygreen I personally preferred Galaxy S; the multimedia features on it are insane. Wireless DLNA, amazing codec support, 720p mkv playback, Super AMOLED screen, etc.
@krazygreen i got the g2 man.... and its fantastic...... i love the battery life.....how fast it is..... beutiful pics and hd videos.... keyboard impressive..... its the best phone i ever had in 5 years.. i love it...
@therealSykosis Well nexus one will always get updates 1st. I got a Att nexus one and i love it cuz you can no longer get ATT Nexus one anymore only T mobile.
nexus one's birthday is next month, however, phones still haven't caught up with it!! All its competitors have pretty much the same specs or LOWER than the nexus! weird eh!
Whats the difference between T Mobile G2 HTC Desire Z and HTC Desire Z ? Same thing? and what phone would you guys recommend, HTC Desire or Desire Z? ( dont worry about the price :P)
@mimi541 Well, yes and no. The hardware is the same except that the internal storage for the Desire Z is 2GB; the G2 has 4GB. Also, that "HTC Peep" is a part of the new HTC SenseUI, which is on the Desire Z. The G2 is running stock, or "vanilla" Android, so that widget won't be on the phone. However, you can still download your favorite twitter app and use THAT widget if you want.
Hmm is it me or does the G2's screen look better than the AMOLED on the nexus ? I've always thought the AMOLED on the Nexus one was the worst AMOLED ever, the blacks weren't deep or colors didn't blow you away like Samsung phones, but worse than a normal LCD, now thats embarrassing.
