Like most geeks in their early 30's and late 20's, I've seen the rise and fall of the Sidekick as a brand and a platform. I remember the original black and white progeny of the Danger (Software & OS) and Sharp (Hardware), and staring in wonder at the browser of the Sidekick 2. Much like parachute pants and 90201 sideburns, the Sidekick brand has seen better days. However, every good thing deserves a revival, and the folks at T-Mobile are hoping a complete makeover will make the brand relevant again. The recipe for the new Sidekick 4G is a pretty impressive mix Android (FroYo), a 3.5" (480 X800) capacitive touchscreen powered by Samsung's Cortex A8 Hummingbird processor (the same one found in the Galaxy S line). Does this modern mix of hardware and software breathe new life into an old brand? Does the Sidekick 4G offer enough to separate itself from the growing competition? The answer, is yes and no. Hit play to find out why.
T-Mobile SideKick 4G Specs It has two price points: $99.99 (after $50 mail-in rebate) with 2-yr contract and unlimited data plan, or $149.99 for contract plus lower end data plan. Android 2.2 3.5 inch screen Sidekick-style tilting hardware QWERTY keyboard (though no swivel) 1GHz Hummingbird processor Front-facing VGA cam, and rear 3MP camera

[icychillred]

@TeamWasted206 hold the screen then put live wallpapers

[Edwinhacker]

I hate my sidekick 4g so much.. I swear im never going back to single core ever again..

[KurtisShane]

@TerraEmperor1 gx2 for sure! this is nice gimmick phone. it only carries the name from its predecessors. It doesn't feel like an original sidekick but it does come close. G2X has everything + more(imo more advanced than the iphone[best selling phone on the market]) so take that with a grain of salt and for what it is worth! Good luck!

[TeamWasted206]

Where can i get that wallpaper

[yellowflash1231]

nevermind about the lx thing

[yellowflash1231]

[youngBdakilla]

i like the phone but it will not connect to my ad hoc network!!!!

[1goalkeeperboy1]

@MsClarissa86 Go to eBay.com they have good priced sidekicks.

[edman2121]
