  • I have G1 n I want 8900... :(

  • Piece of junk, buy the Samsung Galaxy S Fascinate 100X better !

  • @TechnomanGuru  Samsung Galaxy S Fascinate Is a horrible phone...xD i hate it. I love the blackberry, very good phone. These are both good...Black berry...well all the other phones are its Bitch.

  • man im torn between the bold 9700 i already have or the mytouch i can get from my sis... big time texter so the blackberry wins there but also the web on android kicks the shit outta blackberry and i wouldnt have to switch to my itouch for more intense web browsing

  • Hear the voice when G1 Slide ! Lol like crap door

    8900 Rock ,

  • g1 is a big ass gameboy

  • @ItsLanceFoo how dare you insult gameboy's like that!!!

  • @otit161 go play your gameboy . little boy

  • G1 is epic

  • the new curve looks like shit awful build quality and crappy feel not synonymous with previous models i remeber the old curve javellin persay

  • G1 !!!!!!!!!

  • why are the having a dogfight? the G1 looks so outdated lol look at the screen and icons that shit looks like windows xp compared to windows 7. G1 is old BB 8900 is newer

  • i have a g1. but i may be getting the blackbery because the g1 touch screen is off quite often. so when i click comething on the top of the screen it clicks on the bottum of the screen. other than that it is an exalent phone.

  • Does the 8900 have BBM as well or do you need a constant internet connection for that?

  • @BiGDaDDETuRK constant internet... and i dont have a data package either... sso thats y i am thinkin of usin my G1

  • HTC G1 IS WAAAAY BETTER!!!!!!!!

  • Yeah, but Blackberry users don't lie. We all know the OS is outdated. Android is completely reworked. Give me a Storm hardware with Android software and Blackberry Email.

  • im more of a fan for the touchscreen but if the android Os is not wat its made to be,then i think i have to go with the blackberry. yet is not having 3g on the phone going to be a bother if ur into heavy web browsing?

  • This is a year old but you could do this comparison today between the BB Curve 8530 Vs HTC Hero (both on Sprint)

    I have both phones.

    I used the HTC Hero for 3 weeks and everything Noah said is true. Its fun, animations and eye candy...good for games, better (but not necessarily faster)browser....But I found myself going back to BB. I can get to everything much faster, more efficiently. BB keyboard is awesome. I couldnt get any yahoo emails pushed to my Hero. Email on BB is well, you know...sick!

  • The G1 Is My Choice!!!

  • This is a dated and somewhat biased uninformed "dogfight". No 3g on the 8900 because of the UMA feature ... I miss UMA; big plus for the Blackberry. Blackberry's are awesome and I think they look great and fit great in the pocket but G1 will outperform it on absolutely every level. G1 is ugly ... but I get way more out of my service fee than I can with the 8900. Function not fashion. G1 has evolved quite a bit from this video, Blackberry is pretty much the same. 2 great phones for sure.

  • i have both at home... which one shuld i use?

  • Im a System Engineer and i can say G1 rules.

    in my country (Dominican Republic) the people have the BlacBerry fever (Only for chating)...But they dont know that you can chat on G1 to jajaja

    But in my opinion, G1 is better specially for games. and SeEsAw121221 know that what you can do on G1 you cant do on BlackBerry

  • if you connect to your home network through the wifi browser will it still cost money or will it be free because its going through your home network instead of t-mobile?

  • When you mention the connector thingy, the G1 COMES with the dongle that allows a regular pair of headphones/earbuds to be used, in the box. No need to buy anything more if you have a regular pair of earbuds.

  • I have a blackberry. Excellent phone!

  • g1 is a good phone yes its not as attractive but trust thres alot to do with the g1 and most apps are free!

  • G1's HHUUURRTTT!!! thing looks like a brick? Get ur burr on kids!!

  • G1> than most of the competition.

    People have no idea what you can do with a G1. Who cares if it's ugly? It's powerful.

    People are so ignorant. 8900 is an awesome phone.. but no it's not better than the G1.

    Now the 9700 is a great competitor with the G1 considering it has 3G

  • G1 looks like shit

  • theres way more things you can do with the G1 then with a blackberry if you know how to use it thousands of apps

  • g1 sucks now

  • g1 is better phone

  • I have the 8900 and I LOVE IT! people say its a business phone and yes it is BUT it has came a long way!!! back n the day blackberrys didnt even have cameras, they where strictly for business people, now they have tons of apps, the email service is excellent, camera is gret with flash and auto-focus gets ur really clear pictures, battery life is good if u close apps down when finished and keep it on standby when ur not using it.and the G1 is so ugly, blackberry curve 8900 is a sexy bitch

  • blackberry 8900 went to work on the g1`s ass

  • i might get the 8900 with att

  • 0:40 looks like the G1 has a message!

  • blackberry is soooo much better..

    i had the g1 and it was crappyy.. so was the sidekick lx 09 and the moto cliq...

    i have blackberry bold 9700 now.. its the best phone eva..

  • my gf has a palm pre and i have blackberry curve and we trade phones cause there both awsome

  • b-berry

  • Yo, decided to get a g1 recently, but after about 3 hours, I couldn't get to tmobile fast enough to get the blackberry. Blackberry more user friendly and much better. I am not all to thrilled with the whole "touch technology" deal, but, to each its own.

  • g1 way better are you mad

  • Naww Nigga Its G1 All Day My Nig

  • @iHyperxx3 True Dawg!

  • So true. Nigs seems to like everything bigger. Bigger rims. bigger cars,....bigger phones.

    But nigs fail to realize that bigger isnt necessarily better.

  • racist

  • I have had both phones. The G1 had tested better than the blackberry in user friendly ease of use capability.  The g1 has come along way. The blackberry seemed to be a bit dated. Everything with the g1 and the blackberry today... is the same and i would prefer the g1 anyday.

  • dude blackberry is way better .i know because i owned a g1 and the g1 sucks compared to the blackberry

  • I think I'm getting the 8900.. it's just cheaper more me :/

  • Comment removed

  • the g1 is way better

  • dude you seriously got to be sh!!ting me...

    your saying that the blackberry is better because of the email.... AND headphones... i mean come one the g1 could do a million more things that the blackberry. LAME!!

  • i have both and the g1 is better in my opinion

  • omg did he say f***ed up on 6:43 or 6:44? sorry if im wrong

  • he said buttoned up

  • @N3M3S1SZ haha he said buttoned up

  • I really want this phone for

    $60 a month

    with 800 mins, unlimited SMS and free wifi and internet.

  • bullshit you have flash.

  • 1 thing I hate about my G1 is that the battery is awful. I gotta charge mine at least 3 or 4 times a day depending on how much I text that day.

  • invest 10 bucks into one of those chinese batteries that are sold on ebay. i can go for a day and a half without charging using it as my primary music player, running several im clients, and doing a decent amount of web browsing. it can definitely last for 3 days without charging without using the phone like crazy. sure, the large battery gives the g1 an ugly camel hump, but it's well worth it.

  • the g1 is wayyyyyyyyyyyyy better than that crap cuz i owned both so screw off blackberry lovers

  • i miss da g1

    i cant replace it no more

    so t moblie giveing me da 8520 :( its suposely "equaly"

    n my sis have 8900

  • the g1 is better. every blackberry is basically the same . the only thing i wuld say is better about the blackberry is the camera and the battery life but with amazing apps liek picsay on the g1 who needs a better camera. G1!!!!!!

  • Blackberry is WAY better

  • damn i don't know if i should go android or bberry

  • Android ive had the 8900 and iphone3g and now i have the g1 i lyk da g1 more than both my past phones

  • Holy shit didn't know that. How can I root mines??

  • check out thegadgetpro's videos. he does all of that.

  • What I say I love both phones, I had the blackberry nd now I have a G1. I have to say I love the G1 way better than the blackberry. The blackberry is more of a business phone, the G1 is more of a fun phone. The only problem for the G1 to me is it dosent have flash.

  • blackberry is more like a buisness phone though...

  • omg my mom has the blackberry curve. i think its way better than the g1 GOOO BLACKBERRY

  • Damn that Blackberry looks hella sexy.

  • I go G1!!!

  • Have to disagree with the idea that Android isn't mature enough. I've already gotten apps on vanilla Android that I couldn't get on Pre or Blackberry and in some cases, the Iphone. Now that I've rooted my phone, Android is my phone OS of choice with webOS coming in a second.

  • i cant wait to get my 8900 this friday...lol great vid!

  • i got the blackberry curve 8900 free

  • How?

  • my friend works at tmobile

  • me neither ill get it for my b day ... :]

  • i have a G1 but i'm getting the blackberry :)

  • tell me if tht works out for u, cuz i want to, but im not sure

  • i have big hands..in the market 4 a blackberry but has to be by tmobile..any suggestions??

  • the blackberry buttons are getting smaller and smaller

  • G1 takes the win imo. buh im ready to up it into mytouch

    wasnt a big blackberry person in the first place.

  • Bro phonedogs rocks

  • noo G1 is killer

    but i have a Blackberry

  • G1 is waaaaaaaaaaay better!! Ive seen both and the only people dissin the G1 doesnt have one! The keyboard on the G1 is way more spaced out and easier to use and the touch screen is so perfect! I love my G1 and would pick it over any phone including the iphone!!!

  • do you work for apple?

  • i wish

  • omg, iphone SUX!! its just wide brick and g1 is bigger but it have keyboard, faster cpu, 500 mb ram (iphone only 256) and g1 is OPEN SOURCE, so you can do whatever you want, but iphone...

    ...pay money for nothing and finaly get hacked by sms... (sry for bad eng)

  • buy iphone if: you wont to be coolest guy in school, but ehn you will always cry of your choise

    buy android(g1, dream, hero...) if: you dont care what other people think about you (you still be cool) and you will be glad that you choose android! i saw iphone and i didnt find anythin to spend time, with android i can read news in few seconds, look at the weather by widgets and satelite pictures and play lot of greate games via internet (cestos, whatch the doodle)...

  • No one will ever beat the iphones touch screen, but the thing about the g1 is that its like free you can do way more stuff and have different files. The iphone your restricted to only apple software and stuff you can't use third party programs but with the g1 you can. you can customize the g1 more and its better in use, but ill admit it doesnt have the best looks

  • Actually Apple's iphone's touch screen was made with HTC's technology. That's why if you look at all their phones its always "touch" something.  Thats the reason the ipod got the "touch" added to it. The g1 happens to be made by htc, its uglier, but the iphone is shinier

  • blackberry whips their ass

  • It's a shame that all the applications really don't work out yet. Needs a couple of more year to perfect this. G1 is pritty slow sometimes.. so you wanna throw it out of the window.

  • the reason why its slow, its because too many people so many fucken shit on it.

  • I gues you didn't even try it so you dont know where your talking about. It's really great, but my point is.. that internet and mobile phones dont work that perfect as they show in commercials.

  • g1 is good but i feel like its not fully there yet.

    and it annoys me sometimes with it's constant force closes and non/late response times.Plus its a little too expensive for something i don't use to its full potential.

  • To bad I have AT&T carrier =X

    I love my G1 though even if I can't have 3g

  • im gonna go for the blackberry only cuz the g1 isnt really good for me, i dont need all the google n stuff, all i really need a wi fi on a nice, crispp phone..and my phone has to look sexy and the blackberry is no doubt beautifull, while on the other hand the g1 looks old ...dont get me wrong if i could pay 100$for the google plan or wtv i would get the g1, but im only 14 :P so blackberry it is!

  • G1 or google mytouch 3G????

  • there pretty much the same but the g1 has its advantages because of the physical keyboard overall its ur choice

  • g1 wins who cares if it looks ugky you just need what it has

  • Me personally, I love how the G1 looks. Its real sexy in my opinion if you set aside the clunkyness.

  • T-mobile 3G is everywhere now

  • G1's are fun and all, but if you wanna do work BlackBerry is the way to go!!

  • screw the bberry! G1 is MUCH better!

  • Internet, Calendar, GPS is superior on Android.

    Blackberry has ...

  • blackberry also has all of that except for that shit you call android

  • omgg i own a g1 but im craving a bb i been reading about maybe new bb coming for tmobile with 3g either driftwood or onyx??/ something like that so guys.

    either stay with the g1 or change when a new bb comes out also i got to say i pay 95, will the plan be less with bb.

    thanks

  • g1 battery sucks ass

  • im a crackberry addict so blackberry always wins!

  • The G1 is a good phone allot of the guys who club promote with me swear by it. I love the touchscreen and everything along those lines. But really come on people, BB are the staple of people who are successful professionals. I live in NYC I see lawyers, doctors, wall street excs, club promoters all with BB shit my girls a film producer and her and all her friends have BB. If ur an underling go ahead and grab the G1, when ur ready to be a boss grab a BB.

  • very nicely said

  • Comment removed

  • .. okay.. i dont think we care that ure 12 and have a blackberry.. ._.

  • sooo the blackberry has BRICKBREAKER!! lol

  • idiot. the blackberry is so much better looking. the g1 looks HORRIBLE. it looks so weird looking.

  • g1 is better

  • fanboy, g1 wins

  • blackberry fanboy

  • Dingleberry vs Godlike1

    no contest.

  • OMG how can they say the blackbeery is betta, G1 all the way, u can have much more fun wit the G1 than u can wit the blackberry, this video did not even shw all the cool fings the G1 can do, wot a let down. G1 is truly the best!!!

  • G1 is the best, the blackberry is gay

  • g1 is gay

  • sooooooo the G1!!!!!

  • i think imma go wit the blackberry...

  • g1 bitch

  • blackberry!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!

  • G1!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • blackberry

  • what about Touch screen? Please change the dogfight winner here. That was just terrible. I can't stop laughing or talking about it. G1 is the best phone out there. If you really think Blackberry is better, Please email or PM me I would love to have this debate with you.

  • email me i am wondering about the g1 or g2

  • yea.. Like I ussually like your reviews and watch them. But this was redic. they don't even have 3g.. They aren't open source so they get half the apps we get.... Can they even root their phone? Can they get Hero on it? lol. What about wi fi tether? what about the screen being twice the size? Edge hahaha, that loses the Dog Fight for you there mr. Sorry, but I like your reviews but this was just awful hahah

  • it does have wi-fi and Built-in GPS

  • wow.

    thanks for the super biased review

  • bb 8900 is the best phone on tmobil the g1 is to bulky and kinda  ugly the bad thing about the bb curve is lack of 3g

  • True no 3G is a bit irritating but on wi fi mine is just as fast as, say, a Bold or Storm.

  • i think the blackberry is way better even though i have an iphone3gs

  • is it just me, or does it seem like all the people that are goo goo ga ga over the G1 are like 15ish?

  • haha

    I'm 15(using my dad's account)

    and I have the 8900 and like it way more than the G1

  • i have g1 and the battery life time SUchs!

    i got extended battery... otherwise g1 is the best ... i have both 2 nd i prefer g1

  • G1 mutha ****ERS

  • BB 8900 seems to be sexier and better finish.

  • Comment removed

  • just by the looks of it the bb is much clearer than the other phone. I happen to have the curve and i LOVE it...however I have had a bb in the past. i do like the size of the screen on the other phone than the bb but over all bb wins by far, imo. i can use gmail on my bb just fine.

  • just got the blackberry 8900 i must say am dissapointed cause i got the g1,am actually returning the blackberry in getting a mytouch...but its a matter of preferences love the touch screen

  • I love my new G1 just got it 2 days ago and its the best smartphone on tmboile and even better than the iphone the G1 kicks azz

  • i love my g1. its the moxt best fone ever lol its so cool heyy noah can u do a dogfight with the mytouch 3G & the g1 plz!!!

  • wordd!

  • lol wordd 2X

  • question - does the blackberry 8900 require internet? cause at the moment i can't afford it. i wanted to get the g1, but it required internet which isn't possible for me.

  • yes the blackberry does require internet it is a required internet data package with 400 messages a month just like the G1 for 25 dollars a month

  • yeah both of them require it ....sorry!

  • it doesnt but tmobile always says it does i had a bb curve without the plan and my friend got a g1 without the plan

  • just get the data plan and later call tmobile and tell them u broke ur phone they will take it off and u can still use your [hone

  • which one is better

  • im wih t-mobile....ive used both and the g1 isn't nothing but a wide screen that you can touch its some shit compared to a blackberry....the 8900 at that

  • The G1 has the big screen that has a wow factor in the way you can swipe the screen and see the items glide across at a different speed than the background. It also has the best of all worlds. It has the scroller ball, the big touch screen, and the keyboard. It also has the qualities of a feature phone and smartphone mixed together. The 8900 is a slick and quick phone that just works really well and does a lot. I think it depends what matters to the person.

  • If I were with T-mobile I'd go with the G1, but I've recently switched to Verizon from Sprint and am debating between the tour and the env touch or sticking with my red world blackberry.

  • i went from G1 to Blackberry 8900! and 8900 wins mannnn

  • yes it does but not the iphone 3g s, nothing can kill the iphone 3g s

  • i hear bad things about that phone. hacking with a text heating up faster and people returning it. i guess iphone kills itself

  • well i never hacked it or never had problems with it

  • i had all three and the best was blackberry iPhone lacks basic features like recording the newest one just got.... thats stupid

  • i dont like g1's keyboard

  • G1 is betta! i dont have one but my friend lets me use it so often that it feels like mine... so yeah its fast and stuff and i def like the touchscreen and big keyboard

  • I have the G1 (:

  • Me too :) lol

  • is it a good phone?

  • Yeaah, its a good phone but it has a few problems such as that you cannot send things via bluetooth and when you get a message it doesnt open up on home screen you have to go into the notifications part, but apart from that 5*

  • Thxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx mennnnn Greatt info

    =) take care 5pts =)

  • "eye-candy-licious" ahahhahaha

  • 8900 is free with a 2 year plan.

  • its 150 with 2 yr

  • umm well in walmart in dallas its free with a 2yr contract....soo

  • ooo i live in ny and i checkd out tha web site

  • I had the g1 for awhile and just switched to the 8900. The 8900 runs alot smoother and looks way sexier then the g1 on any day. Its small, email on it is great, the camera rocks. However I miss my g1 and intend on going back to the g1. textin on the 8900 makes my fingures sore, the web browsing to me is way way better on the g1 with the new cupcake update for the g1 it makes the g1 run smoother and less buggy. Over all i have to say G1 not to mention its touch screen!
