[HypedPenguin]

FOUND ONE OF THEESE ONT HE STREET :DDD

[pedroptga1]

@HypedPenguin realy ??? i will tell cops

[alvaroaugusto91]

what a horrible british accent

oh my god they should speak like man at all !

[Mo19oM]

Piss off.

[ArkanumTheStrongest]

The only downside is that it supports only 65k colors :(

[saphira512]

was it just me or was that a HUGEE iphone?

[Vagosz]

Just you.

[ThEuNdYiNg1]

thats still a sexy ass phone

[coolus08]

It's time to put iphone to rubbish bin, HTC Hero best phone

[rambomamimbo]

@coolus08 ya

[elchicotimido2]

it like da g1

[soulbody15]

love it. best mobile made ever

[asoccer345]

yes it is!

[moltensnake]

Loving this so far..clearly the iPhone users are all drinking the Steve Jobs Kool-Aid...jackasses

[blawnbled]

Can u stop say..."just like the iPhone" sheeesh this is an HTC phone

[arron4610]

time to switch from iphone to hero...

[Nish2280]

looks a bit slow/laggy

[fancczf]

cause it is bit sluggish,it does have a pretty decent processor but the user interface is just requiring too much processing.

this compare to the htc magic is like the vista compare to xp, one is gorgeous but slow, and one is old but fast.

[chipped87]

wow, obviously a biased review. He didnt even mention anything he didnt like.

[aypee3]

Time to switch from iphone to Hero...

[Ooska]

no.

[floodofcal]

HTC FTW im geting myn today :) i went in to the o2 shop yesterday and some one was tryiung to sell me the iphone i hate it and on contrated you pay way to much for fuck all tbhh

[gspurs]

Im interested in this phone guys and I'm a iPhone 3G User and its a great phone so no fan boy shit from me its just a good phone with the best touch screen I've ever used.

I need to have a mess around with the hero to compare them. I

[armed1234567]

basically the touchscreen on htc is no match for the iphone and yeh wow like you need a round clock in your phone. the weather and other things are just in the iphone already by using wi-fi. ok the camera is better but rubbish touchscreen means zoom in etc all doesn't work as well as the iphone

[StickyAsGlue]

in what way is the touch screen worse??

there both capacative so there about as close as it is possible to be with regards to sensitivity.....

[coolus08]

Hi people it's time to put iphone to rubbish bin, HTC Hero the best choice

[brenito52]

thats nice, their jus

[DarkMerchant2222]

did he just say the same guys and specs as the G1? they are double that of the G1 and same as the magic, big difference from G1 to Magic or Hero

[newwyorknight]

You've got to be kidding me!!! Is this a spoof? Because I heard the HTC Hero was a good phone and that looks like crap. But I have to admit, I like have 12 different clocks because I'm a clocks addict. Maybe the next HTC will have 12 clocks on the same screen :)

[forevernovember24]

a clock addict? that's new

[DarknessAlchemist00]

Why do people keep calling these phone "iPhone imposters"? Really now. These phones are the future. There's no iphone copying. It's like saying that the Sega Genesis copied the Super Nintendo. Developers saw what can be done with a phone through the iPhone,so they're going from there. The iPhone isn't going to be the only touch screen smart phone out there.

[brenito52]

this is better then the iphone......ru kidding, there all "iphone wannabees" people hate what they cant get

[sonyab523]

Um anyone can get an iPhone, people who don't have one choose not to. I hate when people say stupid ass shit like that the iPhone is exclusive to certain people. The iPhone is old news. Time for something new and different.

[deKeijzer]

Hard to figure out what you are trying to say..

This is my translation:

"I think I am an elitist because I have an iPhone, even though I see 15 year old boys playing with them all the time. I think they are extremely cool because they have the same phone as me.

When I see other phones that might have the same (or better) features it scares me so much, I have to make them feel worse about their own phone by using really bad grammar and spelling."

[ginito]

whats the point on creating something that looks like the iphone? aren't they suppose to come up with better design/interfaces ideas? Another iphone-like phone, this is bullshit and im not even fan of the iphone.

[mexicutioner99]

it doesnt even look like the iPhone

[ginito]

even the freaking colors are the same, kid!

[Personist1156]

there are like 7 different colors

[2emoore4]

there are like 2 different colors, but still, this is nothing like an iphone. android is a much more advanced operating system, and the phone itself looks nothing like the iphone

[Personist1156]

On the first look video thing I saw like 7 different colors and read about it somewhere, and I agree with it looking completely unalike compared to the iphone.

[thecitythatreads]

the iphone sucks. i can't count how many people i know who have given up on that phone. bugs. random shut downs, apples ridiculous way of fucking people over. the iphone sucks. the plans sucks. apple sucks.

[ki2594]

bugs and random shut downs? what? lol

i've never heard that or had that..

Anyways, i'm excited to see if this will finally make Android explode, this is the hardware that they needed.

[brenito52]

wow!!!!!!!!!!, not as good as the iphone

[theLichKing1]

of course not.. it's much better than the iphone

[taliewacker2007]

no keyboard?

god dammit

[goloza]

they took off the physical keyboard!! I don't give up my keyboard for that..

[Retroxity]

at least this isnt some crappy spin off to Guitar hero

[lifeisdead01]

yeah, that's what i thought it is!

[tanthemainman133]

that is excactly what i thought

[billybangcock]

is the htc magic also known as the USA google g2? they look very similar.

[chaoticlifeofmine]

In the U.S, there is a phone called the MyTouch 3G, which is also called the G2. The MyTouch 3G is pretty much the same as the Magic, with few improvements here and there.

[VideoGameAddikt]

Waow!!!! thats preety sick

[carolynishis]

I subscribed,I gave you 5 stars and i made you my favorite.Please enter me.

[MrRobTheLEGEND]

whats with the 80's hair?

[vames1986]

Really? Is your comment even necessary? Fkin internet wankers these days

[futsko28]

so let me get this straight, your saying your are a raging homosexual? because thats all i got from what you said in your flame above. p.s. nice little review, but i still dont like this phone, but good job either way

[XdeathXasXitXisX]

how the fuk can u get that from wht i said?.. all i was ( trying to) saying was that having the weather application on a phone is a stupid fukin idea

[springby]

i rather see some operations on the phone itself than looking at some talking face. what this guy just told me i can read from all the fansites and official webpage. hey the phone he holds up could might as well be a onetouch or something... -.-

btw get a haircut

[sweetypie000]

i should get one cos i'm a hero

[Intosia]

you killed yourself?

[pspman100]

Ahh this guy is a fag, get a fucking hair cut, i actually want to learn what this phone has to offer but ill have to watch a different video due to this mugs ugliness.

[JereHakala]

I lol'd.

[luvmercedes]

Is the Tmobile myTouch this or the magic?

[zenrising]

Has anyone here listened to the radio station "Integrity" while playing GTA4?

There are ads parodying exactly this kind of thing. Omh my god oh my god, now I can text and chat and surf and be everywhere and nowhere at the same time.

lol

[rodbacelar2007]

I prefer Iphone, HTC copied ...

[romito19]

android gives their very satisfied clients updates almost every 3 to 6 mnths and very well useful ones at that unlike iphone witch just brought out copynpast mms and other functunalities that android gave to their clients without having to buy another 3 to 9 hundred dollor phone and renewing their contract ota undates kills iphones and oh yea we have a 3 megpix cam not a 2 lke the iphone and the iphone 3gs just upgraded to a 3 but im only tlkin abut the g1 the hero nw with multi touch kills iphn

[Rhaz0r]

and the iphone copied samsungs...its not copying its improving...

[djcrawleravp]

iphone is much better

[retrogirl19]

my goodness! he looks like Peter Davison, the Fifth Doctor Who! the hair and everything!

[zuluforyou]

He's a lot younger and fresher though

[LuKeNuKuM]

has he stolen Maggie Thatchers hair?

[udunnokevin]

haha thats my last name

[Haannaahh92]

nice hair.

[JimmyDasnitch92]

how is it the first phone to have multitouch if the iphone already has it

[loxaXcracker]

First android* handset with multitouch.

[Tinuserviceline]

the first ANDROID phone

[tigersharkmonkey]

first android phone with multi touch..

[JimmyDasnitch92]

whats the difference?

[JimmyDasnitch92]

i want them to create a 5 or 6G Phone next year for me to consider buying one

[thefrequencykenneth]

Question: Does this come with web 2.0 compatibility across all social networking sites including facialbook, shitter and myface?  I'm hoping to bluetooth this mother wirelessesely through my GRPS dongle fongle pudding and pie.

[honkytrousers]

oh my god!! he's wearing honkytrousers!!

[FR3D3RIK1991]

what a ugly phone.. waste of time

*geek*

[PS3badman1]

DONT LIKE IT, am waiting for the sony aino

[MirulMoon]

I agree to those saying that

touch phones being overrated or being common.... But wth all of them use it either to show off their phones or just for business.

[Styxxer]

hm, LG arena has multitouching too btw... sooner

[nobamaplz]

sweet another iphone with a diff name

[roughryder5]

touch phones are becoming overrated now dont you guys think? :s

[stuffradio]

no I don't :s

[somberlight]

they always have been overrated, but fairly cool tech toys without apple BS are always welcome. I say, Bring em on!

[TrevorandGui]

2:33

[whiteypunk]

What, 12 Clocks??

i CANT believe it!!! DUNCAN!!!

ive got to buy it....

and it got a search botton, and if a press it, it will seach anything the cellphone has with that name... WOW

incredible,best phone ever!!! bloodyhell, its brilliant ive got to say... fuck it, is there anything new.. besides the 12 clocks??? if so, call... punk

[Twinkiest]

I absolutely love how he mentions the 12 clocks as he says it has "everything you could possibly want", like who would come up with that shitty idea? "Well boys I think our customers want some variety in their clocks, we better throw 12 in there".

[rubick79]

anything windows mobile FAILS

[axion87]

Good thing this runs Android then...

[nsupra27]

Except this phone is running the Android OS and not Windows? Doesn't even have anything related to Microsoft.

[SurreallTV]

but yet again...NO KEYBOURD!

ANOTHER FAIL!!!

the G1's keybourd is SERIOUSLY the decoiding factor between it..and the iphone

STUPID!

[tweak302]

omg 12 clocks i need this phone.

haha fuck that iphone is the best

[Racamonkey]

nothing will ever beat the iphone

[Darkmysterio23]

[PolxenTwo]

Haha that compass...

[Racamonkey]

[RG7621]

Cut your hair and show me a phone that calls people.

[erey619z]

[EmptyNutShells]

[cyfer911]

[ReaLityHurTsxX]

[ihave10uncles]

obviously said by someone who has never had their dick sucked

[ReaLityHurTsxX]

Fail ... Virgin

[garybuick890]

haha! so true!

[ihave10uncles]

whose the virgin... have YOU ever had your dick sucked...

[DYLANAPPLEJUICE2]

have you?

[Kamilniewulis1]

im sorry but you can get your dick sucked and still be a virgin

[ReaLityHurTsxX]

Nice insult dude. It seems the only Scary thing here besides your amazing ability to think of a blowjob as sex......is your huge lack of inteligence.

Id ask if youd had your dick sucked to confuse you but its obvious all youd say is " YEAH BITCH BY YOUR MOM YEEEE" as your immature.

So once again Stfu ...... Virgin

[ihave10uncles]

hehehehe its funny beacuse im not a virgin... but whatever you want to think is just whatever XD

[castra73]

Nice phone presentation

[imnameless07]

Where is the slide out keyboard????.....

Why did they removed it...:(

[narutoichigoluffy100]

esta fino

[flipje321]

ok very nice bud can you phone with it

[canesten55555]

what the fuck is wrong with your hair dude ¬¬

[mozzmanau]

Why the fuck would you want to see what people are doing Facebook shitter and all the rest of the crap on your mobile phone. Fuck people GET A LIFE. theres these things called, sun, grass, nightclubs FFS get your head out of your screen go outside and get a life. Im sure it will help alot of people dealing with depression lol

[nofx84]

nightclubs huh? You greasy bastard

[mozzmanau]

Greasy Bastard? LMFAO you are NERD. Have you had sex yet? VIRGIN. Shit you dont even know what type of people go to nightlubs. Shit im in tears right now NERD

[LostProphet1776]

DJ party started baby, there's no end in sight....

[LostProphet1776]

PS It's a crazy world; it's a crazy situation....

[nofx84]

Sorry, I didn't know there was a correct insult for people who go to nightclubs. But since you made a comment about me probably being a virgin, you've either beat your dick raw or have fucked so many hookers that it has just fallen off. Go ahead and call me a nerd, I don't find it offensive, but next time, don't put nightclubs in the same category as sun and grass.

[mozzmanau]

NERD

[GinoRc]

NEEEEEEEERRRRRDD GET A GIRL!

[PrinceFX]

amazing... love the interface ! might be my next upgrade.. but the 'chin' might be weird if i put it in my pocket.

[cappew22]

Fuck fuck fuck! My internet speed is too gay to match this video quality, fucking annoying when you have to pause it all the time. >_> *Want's to watch in crap quality*

Anyways, great phone, and awesome video. :)

[gippi86]

omg it's huge where am I supposed to put it?! Definitely not in a poket.. so where?? ........XD

OMGGG... 10 clocksss! no wait... 12 CLOCKS??? WOW! can't wait to try them out!

[panzolater]

[nawkwan]

I wish they had android as the OS for the Touch Pro2.

[sirtrosky]

[thebleh33]

[iMEGAPHONEE]

[rg4903]
