Hands on with the T-Mobile G2

[ACH805]

G2*? Or would they give me another phone?

[ACH805]

As of today, would phone insurance give me another G

[symoneraven65]

I just got one Friday! I was actually about to buy the G2x but I looked up reviews on different websites, including youtube & everyone said it sucked. So I got the original G2

[xTDWPx210x]

this phone is great(:

i had the g2x but was having so many problems!

random reboots overheating freezing -__-

and then i got the g2 and its so much better ! no problems what so ever

[WOLFWIND400]

The G2 is a tank



[Baze13c]

@Vegaskies14 I know I just bought mine last night haven't seen it yet not until next week

[zotiik]

@Baze13c :) You got it now!!! :D

[derrellfromindy]

Thanks 4 going in2 details about this phone I bought it happy with it.

[ThaJUMPER83]

Original G2 is gorgeous hands down and its feel so heavy and expensive. I love it! Its one of the most high quality of phones. G2x is just freaky plastic and way cheaper to manufacture lol its your dime not mine

[RtTicuTte]

I love this phone (: it's great

[S0RREN]

@AndroidCentral I just ordered ZTE Blade, this t-mobile G2 (HTC desire Z in europe) though, isnt tham much more expanzive! Do you thing I shuld cancel my order, and pul little more money into this phone?

[212deecee]

ew. his hands are nasty!

[johhnyred3g]

Nasty ass hands eeeelll

[PreLudeLoveR67]

The g2 was actually discontinued 2 weeks ago! Tmobile isn't selling them anymore. They will only supply replacement phones for people like my self who own a g2 already. I know it sucks=/

[Vegaskies14]

@PreLudeLoveR67 u are a liar bec im buying one today

[freedumnevafree]

what did you do to your poor finger :( u have a band aid..............lol

[MrSevenbatman7]

how do u get pic messages

[BlacKGraFFiX]

Even though I bought the Desire HD, Im still attracted to the Z. It feels like Im cheating...

[Braandyn]

This phone is SO FUCKING SEXY. <33

[marialuvzyuhh]

Wat! My phone takes forever to turn on...His takes not even a min..Lol

[BlacKGraFFiX]

@marialuvzyuhh - Check if you have Fast Boot turned on...

[Sheldonw1119]

Good review...I was contemplating upgrading to this from my MyTouch Slide and you definitely helped.

[rahPS324]

Love this phone

[JeeonZaki1]

your gay g2 is boss

[TheJboi562]

150 for this phone is dat good?

[lokochon323]

Should i get a my touch or da g2??

[arabianofelix]

@lokochon323 mytouch4g is nothing compared to this. plys mytouch is a health hazard due to very very high radiation. im an iphone lover but im so jealous of the g2 etc.

[KidWithBlackHair]

@arabianofelix I rather get a ipod touch rather than a iPhone, just my opinion:)

[dierova]

it hasnt been workin properly for couple of days

[drdrummerman]

WTF!!!! my g2 takes forever to turn on!!!! omg my phone takes like about 3 minutes to turn on while his takes like 40 seconds wtf

[coducus912005]

@drdrummerman its brand new and doesnt have any of your apps bogging it down.....

[Taurus5190]

sexy phone

[rock1181977]

should i get this or iphonr 4 or stick with my captivate please someone help ?

[xmanjr1]

i can't load the market application. As soon as I choose an option, for example if I go beyond the first set of options and choose "Applications" I get this message: "A server error has occurred. Retry, or cancel and return to previous screen.

[robinxleigh122]

i got mine the second day it was out and mine has that hinge problem :/ oh well. ive had it for about 7 months already

[VertsMedia]

Shame the new American version is better :P

[imtheboss151]

[juangam98]

[ConverseKey]

Hey guys!!

Please tell me which phone is beetter..

The Iphone 4G Or The tmobile g2??

Im gonna get either one and i cant decide

plz tell me which is better and why!

Thankkxx alott!!

[1l0v3b4s3b4ll]

@ConverseKey iPhone blows ass. Get G2 or any other android really. Any android is better than an iphone

[HybridSprinter08]

@ConverseKey G2. Its not an apple

[VertsMedia]

@ConverseKey Iphone is bad

[mcluvin28x]

@ConverseKey Im going thru the same situation as you its kind of hard to decide asking people in this video, obviously alot of t mobile fans here but ask in yahoo and send me the link !

[jenny12233]

im soo confused... i like the g2 and the g2x dont know which one i should get.. i currently have an iphone 4 this is my second iphone(had the 3g) and im tired of it already.. i feel like the g2x is too similar to the iphone but i like it.. then again i really like the g2 because i use to use keyboard phones like the htc tilt and g2 is similar to that... lol so u can imagine how confused i am..

[karatekris29]

@jenny12233 g2x is sooooooooooooooo much better than both of those phones, it runs so smooth cuz of that tedra dual core processor, the g2 is fast but u wont believe how much better the specs are on the g2x, although u said that u like keyboard phones so... it matters what u want more, a smoother and faster interface or a keyboard, and trust me... the iphone is nothing compared to the g2x (i have an ipod touch as well so theres no point in me getting the iphone lol)

[cpcrame]

@karatekris29 I agree, but there are bugs. I'm considering switching to a g2 since mine shut down while charging and, after looking online, it seems to be a common problem. It's one thing to rush a new phone into the market, but this is one of the first dual-core phones so it's even more risky. Anyway, how is yours? I'd like to wait it out and see if there's an update that will solve the issues, but I only have until May 7 to go g2 or else risk getting stuck with a possibly defective phone.

[karatekris29]

@cpcrame i just got it a couple days ago and i have also heard that in the middle of the night it reboots for no reason, i also heard of screen bleeding, its never happened b4 to me though, but im pretty sure it will be fixed in the android 2.3 gingerbread update that tmobile said will come "soon"... of course we dont know how long "soon" is

[cpcrame]

@karatekris29 i had my hopes on that, just other phones had the same trouble as well. Nobody can really vouch for these articles, but the nexus s ( google had said the 2.3 update will fix the random reboots) still randomly reboots in the 2.3 update. Mine has the "screen bleeding" which is hardly noticeable to be honest and has only rebooted once so I may still keep the phone.

[jenny12233]

@karatekris29

thanks :)

the g2x is the phone i have decided to go with im getting it next week

[rafle12345]

sir I am saddened to inform you that your hands appear to have died from lack of oxygen sincerely. a concerned viewer

[accordbord]

can i get help how much is the montly cost for this phone i mean basic talk time and data plan - phone cost?\

[wefiyhigh56]

wish i can get this, i have a galaxy, but i like the G2 because of the keybored

[SlackDaddy2009]

Yeah...try holding the TOP and BOTTOM of the phone upside down and see if the phone opens...EXACTLY...it does!

[TheLUCCKIEE]

i love my G2

[sandovaljb]

Did you hurt your hand in the mines of Moria?

[edgar55drop]

the G2 or samsung galaxy s 4G? i need an asnwer by tommorow because im getting one of them tommorow D:

[Helli6n]

@edgar55drop go with the G2, the Galaxy S has way too many unresolved issues with it's custom UI among other things.

[greyfoxzero]

@Helli6n Just ordered my G2, was thinking about the Galaxy S 4g but heard way to many issues and how the hardware was never fully taken advantage of. Plus who the hell doesn't want a real qwerty?

[awsomedude247]

@edgar55drop G2 :P

galaxy is good if the you text alot tho.

[xXChineseBoiXx]

cant wait for the g2x :D

[dynaturner1]

Yeah same for me...I don't use my pc for these kind of stuff...plus it has flash!!this phone is so fast...even as fast or faster than iphone...everybody is impressed when they try my phone...I ws on g1 now I love my g2

[mrlwta13]

to lock alt or shift just double press. to unlock pres once more, i discovered this today by accident :p.

i have this phone and LOVE it, im actualy on it right now, it has replaced my pc when it comes to simple web tasks like chating facebooking or just surfn the web.

[ladderboy2007]

hit the alt key twice it locks its for more than one number

[AudioMonkeys21]

I on T-mobile right now...can't wait to get my hands on the Evo 3D haha (I'm switching to Sprint cause of AT&T)

[superbthesonofman]

love this phone a lot can't stand that fact that att is taking over though looks like version is my next spot

[Helli6n]

@superbthesonofman hasn't been confirmed yet, FTC/DoJ have to approve this before AT&T can buy T-Mobile so there's a possibility it won't get bought by AT&T. We won't know for another year (this is how long it takes).

[suthnheet504]

Cuz I'm feelin so fly wit my G2

Wit my G2

Wit my G2

Now now now na now, Cuz I'm feelin so fly wit my G2

[skateboardcrh12]

wow I wonder how cellphones will be in the year 2100

[skateboardcrh12]

the g2 looks sexy, i want to get it. They are cutting all sidekicks in May. Once my sidekick lx 2009 is cut off, im getting a hot g2

[0cBROOKLYNc0]

THIS PHONE IS AWESOME YOU SHOULD GET IT the only thing i hate about this phone is it's heavy :[

[richardb2837]

I like this phone but ny evo shift is nicer...

[TheBnj2008]

i had this phone i miss it soo much!!! :(

[LUFUJ]

@TheBnj2008  What happen to it?

[greyangel14]

I'm sorry but I have to say this, my Vibrant running Froyo stock, is more responsive that the phone you're reviewing. Haters can hate but this is the truth. The Galaxy series is so far the top tier phones even better than the Evo 4g.

[KingOfKIngZ1330]

My g2 blocked me some how from going on porn sites anyone knows the problem

[iucidium1982]

G2 numbers.. double press alt? Then do your numbers?

[iucidium1982]

I own the Desire Z... i want the option to turn off sense.

[oFreddEo123]

Im sticking to the G family!

[Kaz10005]

i currently have sprint & am so sick of the over charges. Today i'm going to t-moble to check this babay out

[Mr291229]

How is the battery life, can u go through a whole day?

[KaLiLoKz]

@Mr291229 yes if u dont leave running apps.. such as music... it would help to have a car charger just incase!! =)

[CR1ST41L]

Why dONT I Have This Phoneee:( fml

[poptartsrule96]

its actually a 1400 milla ampp battery (srry for spelling)

[guusvb1995]

is the g2 an desire z without sense?

[shadowmuniplitive]

@guusvb1995 Pretty much.

[BLUEKRUZER]

Dudde lol its a review your sopposed to talk

[moisesmadriz]

its so damn perfect

[0Smoot0]

can you put your own music on it?

[armorproductions1]

you can talk about the sim card but you dont need to tell us every damn feature and turn on the phone already 

[armorproductions1]

you can talk about the sim card but you dont need to tell us every damn feature and turn on the phone already

[Ov3rDose2o4]

This guy talks too much

[hydeist667]

this phone would of been so much better if it wasnt on t-mobile.

[Darkhearts151]

The hinge/spring problem isn't blown out of proportion, I just got one yesterday and had to send it back because the keyboard was literally hanging off of it. HTC just sent out a bad batch, and they obviously haven't fixed it.

[VENUEATHENS]

this phone would look even better if it was blacked out with that siliver back... MAN I WISH IT WAS ALL BLACKED OUT!

[T810G]

this phone looks pretty sick.. im now considering this or the samsung galaxy(coming soon w/ tmobile)

[ATSx118]

Got this phone today! And to have the ALT key on for more than one button press is just to press the ALT key twice before pressing any other key.

[shutupjonae69]

Can you get a Tmobile prepaid phone card for this phone?

[ItzMonStar]

@wizard101fan112

its a smart phone bro; not a green screen...it does all of that and more dude.

[autonami]

@wizard101fan112 it records 720p HD video.

[jclark934]

love the phone and there is a wifi hotspot its in wireless settings and go to tethering and portable something. its awsome!

[fatallaugh]

Sausage fingers lmaooo

[realbyfaith]

What Is The Name Of That Theme Running In The Back Ground?

[Mac1609]

Pretty nice phone! But clearly cant beat my iphone 4. xcept the data plans tmobile has

[kasam50]

G2 Vs. Mytouch Slide 3G HELP?!

[AndroidZee]

you were clearly holding both parts of the phone when u held it upside down

[phalluses]

is there a point to have this phone if you don't have the data plan?

[kingdevil123x]

man i got this phone and its great the hinges though suck some people are luckier than others. I tsted out like 6 only one was good and it was a t mobile emplyee...i sent 2 back to t mobile hope fully i get one like this guy's on the video...lucky bastard..great review

[Caaaaaaaash]

[DjSilver118]

Love the phone etc but wtf is wrong with your right thumb?!

[LinebackerUSC]

sexiest phone?

[Boomkat1894]

Does anyone know how to use a song from your memory card as a ringtone on this phone. I cant figure it out. Can anyone help me please??

[KaLiLoKz]

@MrBigdaddycack lol how?? i've been tryin to get some free apps... =/

[MasterWaveXL7]

@MrBigdaddycack good for you

[pcf4life]

@MrBigdaddycack thought i was the only one LMFAO

[GottaLoveNae]

Im do for an upgrade and i was wondering whiich phone is better between the g2 and the myytouch 4g?

[Androidandmore101]

@GottaLoveNae personal preference...i have the G2 i loveee it...doesnt have the front face cam..or the "high def" screen but its a good phone solid.

[xDcxjACOBO]

G2 or mytouch 4g ?

[masterishy]

@xDcxjACOBO The g2 totally takes the MyTouch 4g and stomps on it, then pisses on it and takes a SHITE on it, and it would spit on it, but that would have given the MyTocu a little to much respect

[danny06191]

@masterishy The G2 does not: stomp, piss, "SHITE", or spit, on the MyTouch 4G. The MyTouch has a superior processor, its faster, has a genius button, frontward facing camera, and just so much more. But of course, you probably are just a G2 owner, and think you have the best phone ever. It's understandable, but dont get carried away. hahahah :D 

[masterishy]

@danny06191 i dont have a g2, i have an ipod 3rd gen, i just like google the website

[jaferhassan]

not sure which to get droid 2 or this or evo 4g shift or htc touch pro 2 someone please reply

[jaferhassan]

I prefer the droid 2

[ognimoddd]

i have this phone :)

[dvintin]

dude, clean your damn hands up in the sink or something. Soap helps. and DO NOT be a food handler in a restaurant or something. your hands make me puke

[mkitche3]

Just so you all know, the original iPhone was released in January of 2007. The g1 wasn't released until late in 2008. So the iPhone came wayyyyyy before the first android phone.

[ShayPeee]

...I LOVE MY PHONE!.....

[jazzy752]

I HAVE THIS PHONE SO FCKIN AWESOME. I LOVE T-MOBILE FOR BLESSING ME WITH THIS FONE!

#T-MOBILE FAN

[Tierehl]

@jazzy752 They didn't Bless you, you payed for it.

[SLlCEmyBREAD]

PLEASE TELL ME!! How did he get the back ground on his home?????Will sub if helped

[iceman9109]

@SLlCEmyBREAD its the nexus 1 live wallpaper you can get it from the android market

[ExpressThaPanda]

@SLlCEmyBREAD umm if you have this phone

1.just touch and hold on a empty space.

2.click wallpapers

3. then click live wallpapers and you should find it.

Hope this helped

[Cruisexpert96]

i know this is random but i cant stop wondering...what the "T" in T-mobile stand for?!?!?

[tony189007]

@Cruisexpert96 the creator used to love t-bone steak. There you go you got your answer.

[Cruisexpert96]

@tony189007 that makes sense....ha

[SupaFlyJitsu]

@Cruisexpert96 the "t" stands for "togother" thats why they say stick togother

[SupaFlyJitsu]

im in love with this phone!!!!! i have it and i wont give it up until they make a g6

[allday920]

@SupaFlyJitsu wow corny lol

[shammas23]

god i love this phone. i will never trade it for anything else. Unless they make a G3

[Bigrippa96]

can you take songs from itunes and import them on this phone?

[guynamedoliver]

@Bigrippa96 yes download doubletwist and enjoy... works fin on my droid x

[Bigrippa96]

@guynamedoliver okay sweet! Thank you! Do you know if it is a free app?

[guynamedoliver]

@Bigrippa96 its for your computer.....just search it on the web. it is really easy to use just connect your phone to computer and doubletwist should detect it.....from there you can put your music on it. and for photos I recommend using the phones file storage to put it on there.....any questions just ask :D

[SwaggaS7aR]

I hate how every one keeps saying the iPhone is the best honestly the iPhone is just applications the reason people say its the best because there was nothing like the iPhone then Android came out G2 is good and the HTC My Touch 4g is the iPhone killer now after i said that i hope the nerds that watch this vid dont spam me saying stupid shit

[guynamedoliver]

@SwaggaS7aR android was out before iPhone haha

[SwaggaS7aR]

@guynamedoliver no it wasn't first Android phone was the G1 late 08 iPhone came out early 08 so yea if you going to correct me dont make yourself sound stupid

[guynamedoliver]

@SwaggaS7aR android: made in 2005. so please, I am not sounding stupid. by the way, nothing the iPhone has hasn't already been done by android powered phones. nothing.

[SwaggaS7aR]

@guynamedoliver ur a fucking retard

[XxPr1nc3v3get4xX]

wooop woopp just ordereed this phone :D

[OmarblesO]

I'm jealous!

[shadowflame1976]

can it handle HD video?

[diohellsong]

@shadowflame1976 yes it can

[shadowflame1976]

can it handle HD video on say youtube?

[TheAfropuff001]

Getting one of those tomorrow!

[silverknight139]

correction on 10:52, you only have to click the "ALT" button once for a symbol, click it twice for constant symbols, just like caps lock, DO NOT HAVE TO HOLD DOWN

[songoextreme]

Can someone tell me how to get that particular homescreen on the G2.?

[firewallx]

Bought a g2, loved the plain Android 2.2. But I read reviews that Mytouch 4g was better, etc. so I exchanged it for the Mytouch 4g. Mytouch was horrible with all the junk tMobile apps, and I didn't want to root it to lose updates. SenseUI on the Mytouch was annoying, and the 'Genius button' was crap. It would recognize what I wanted about 30-40% of the time.

I'm going back to G2.

[MidnightrambIer3760]

Damn.. this guy has sausage fingers.. He must be a fat fuck.. Thumbs up if noticed it too.

[lockoold]

IS the battery life good????

[patbat51]

Warranties are made for garbage like this. I purchased this and within a week it went right back and I got a refund. Android is a racket, but if you have the money and want it then that is your choice me personally though I use a razor and enjoy not having the extra thirty dollars a month on top of my phone bill. This phone was a great novelty though it wore off quick so if you want a decent phone from T-mobile

go with the Galaxy. Don't get a MyTouch because they are poorly constructed.

[kritian93]

SEXY PHONE BUT UGLY NAILS MAN

[zver711]

I'm deciding on a 4G phone for T-Mobile so its b/w this one and MyTouch, I guess...hmmm.

How could you get enough dirt on your thumb to mash it into the USB
