CNET Editors` Review (T-Mobile G1)
While we`re not in love with the design and would have liked some additional features, the real beauty of the T-Mobile G1 is the Google Android platform, as it has the potential to make smartphones more personal and powerful. That said, it`s not quite there yet, so for now, the G1 is best suited for early adopters and gadget hounds, rather than consumers and business users.

T-Mobile G1 Review
T-Mobile’s G1 is a fresh slice of mobile phone history. While its outer crust has been baked by experienced smartphone chef HTC, it’s the exciting new filling – Google’s open source Android OS – that has got us salivating. Unfortunately, the same can’t be said for the G1’s looks. Thicker and heavier than the elegant iPhone and tank-like Sony Ericsson Xperia X1, it has the sex appeal of a Volvo family estate car.

T-Mobile G1 Review
The T-Mobile G1 may not have the visual panache and artistry of Apple`s UI, and some basic features are missing or slightly undercooked, but in terms of navigating the phone`s myriad and diverse feature set, Google has created an interface in Android that is fun, intuitive and quite powerful. The phone offers convenience beyond belief without redundantly stacking menu items on top of each other. The apps included with the device, and some of the earliest apps we`ve downloaded from the Google Market, are fresh and in many cases mindblowing. From the Google Maps Street View that creates a virtual world with the built-in compass and accelerometer to the Amazon MP3 store that offers DRM-free downloads to the Compare Everywhere app that scans barcodes and finds local deals on popular products, the T-Mobile G1 offers capabilities and developer access beyond any handheld device we`ve seen. Though we did encounter some reception issues and problems with call quality, we`re hoping these will improve as T-Mobile builds out their 3G network.

T-Mobile G1 Review
Although a good first outing for the Android open-source mobile operating system, we cannot escape the feeling that the designers were unsure of what they were trying to achieve.

T-Mobile G1 Review
There is a lot to like about the T-Mobile G1. It is easy to get to grips with, which is not something you can say about many touch-screen devices. We also loved the three-tier homepage approach and the messaging capabilities are top notch, especially the text/conversation feed. While there has been some caution expressed with regards to the Google Android platforms vulnerability to bugs and dud applications, it is sure to change the mobile application world for good.

Google Android G1 review
The G1 is a smart choice for anyone who doesn`t want an iPhone, whether that be due to the O2 exclusivity, the fact they`re an Apple hater, or they despise the lack of truly open source applications on offer. The G1 is a fair alternative to the iPhone, but also a darn good phone in its own right. The best thing about it is it`ll only get better, with the Android Marketplace launching properly next January, and thousands, if not millions, of people creating and adding to the rich Android platform.

T-Mobile G1 Review
As a device that does many tasks, there’s a lot to like about the G1, even if it’s not all there yet. Its user-interface quirks may bother some people more than others, who will be willing to overlook the annoyances because of the sheer amount of functionality that the G1 sports. If nothing else, Android provides a serious competitor to Apple in the smart phone market that will hopefully force both to continue to improve.
