I bought the phone as a replacement for my myTouch 3G that I had managed to drown in the sink. I like the myTouch for several reasons. It is very easy to use: The menu makes sense (at least to me) and the few hardware buttons and a very well balanced scroll button (not the Blackberry roller button nightmare) feel solid and give you great control over the phone. It also has the best connection of any phone I have had so far. I literally dropped 3 calls in a year. For comparison driving the same stretch to and from work I drop the call 5 times (every time i drive the stretch) with a Sprint Blackberry and 4 times with a TMobile Black berry. The latter is with the same SIM card I use for the MyTouch. My wife's Samsung behold II and Motorola Cliq also didn't compare in ease of use, reliability and connections. The main disadvantages of this phone are its hands free mode (speaker and headset). The microphone volume is very low so people have a very hard time to hear you. On speaker general environmental noise will be much loader for the other person than your voice while you will have great audio. However, using a Bluetooth headset (Plantronics) it is nearly possible to hear the caller no matter what line they are calling from. Not sure if this is an issue of this particular headset or of the phone's bluetooth mode. Second issue: processor speed. Depending on the apps you run it can get very sluggish. I used to run RoadSync for my company email and gave up as emails would take minutes (no exaggeration) to open. Running Touchdown this has become much better but I still would not consider it a fast phone. Same with other apps, an iPhone or the Samsung Behold II (an presumably most newer Android phones) will be faster for the same apps. Lastly, battery life is so so. Obviously depending on apps you run and the phone calls you make but using it for company and private email, some minor texting and IMing I have to charge the phone in the late afternoon to make it through the rest of the day. Without the applications and with just a few calls (maybe 1.5hrs total) the battery will last for a day or two. Overall, I would consider a nice little Android phone that runs a lot of apps fairly well though not blazingly fast and does what a phone should do better than many more expensive candidates. For the tech geek this is probably not the best choice but for someone who wants a good reliable phone that can do more this is a great option IMO.Read full review
I love my Wing, the design, the size, the color and the applications. However, I hate the fact that in 3 years time I have probably gone through 4 or 5 of them usually because some aspect of it fails, the touch screen, the menu buttons, the back door doesn't stay on, the phone freezes, on and on. Additionally one of the main reasons that I bought it for (using the programs like Outlook, mobile word and adding applications) is not really possible because the memory is just not sufficient enough to do it. There are some solutions out there like purchasing a microSD card with high storage capacity and install your applications on there, but if your not that computer savvy this can seem daunting in an of itself. The camera I've never been able to get a really good picture with but I don't really use it that often. Anyway for whatever reason I still love my Wing; maybe it's the Qwerty keyboard, the excellent t-mobile service, the slide-out keyboard, the great organization that comes with the tasks feature and the calendar with its reminder function, the internet access, the video playback ability or the MP-3 player. Additionally it's really easy to sync it with your computer using ActiveSync, a major plus for me because as I said I'm not that computer savvy at all. I don't know something keeps me buying one (potentially gonna fail) Wing after another. Maybe it's just that I haven't found another phone that links all of the features I love so much together as well as the Wing has done. It's my Love/Hate relationship with the Wing!!Read full review
As of July 2011 this phone is a great one for some who want to have smart phone and don't want to spend a whole bunch on a latest technology phone. The phone is overall okay, it has all the features some would expect from a smart phone, connects to wifi, synch with google any other account, has browser, has GPS, basically almost any application from android market will work. There are a couple of catches with this phone ! which most of advertisers don't mention (because of their policies). This phone is unlocked but you will need a sim card with data plan to be able to activate (first time login to your google account), and beware, this is regular SIM card, not microsim which is usual to latest smartphones, so make sure to have that ready, but afterward you can use it with a prepay card (like I have) once activated. Another small little inconvenience is related to hardware capability ! if you upgrade the latest Android (as of now Froyo 2.2) you will notice that navigation is slughish, not the same as natively installed 1.6 version, you will most likely need an application (like Gemini app manager to kill some of the useless stuffs) and as mentioned above, some application won't run because will require better hardware (eg. crazy birds), so you have to think about twice before upgrading to latest OS version (it will bug you constantly - no sure if that can be deactivated), but even if you upgrade and don't like it, you can switch back anytime to older OS version. The size of the phone is just right, not huge like some of the latest Samsung Galaxies, just slightly smaller then iPhone, I simply like it.Read full review
I was looking for a new phone supporting AWS (UMTS Band IV, 1700Mhz) for Wind Mobile Canada. As I already have experienced some Android phones and found this platform superior (despite being loyal user and fan of Windows Mobile for 5+ years) I chosen MyTouch 3G. Actually it is operator's version of HTC Magic. It is definitely good phone, solid and reliable. Maybe one can find some cheaper Chinese Android device like SciPhone, but legendary proven HTC design and quality are worth spending couple of dollars more. So if you need decent Android phone and don't feel comfortable spend over $500 for Nexus One, have at look at this maybe not-that-fancy but still great and powerful cell phone. Pros: Android! 3.1 HVGA Screen (320x480) Capacitive Touch Bigger (vs T-mobile G1) battery time Enough space on internal flash memory Fast as lightning (over 7mbps on Wind 3G network) GPS working even with no satellite view (using AGPS) Any USB charger can be used Great community support (custom ROMs, themes, apps etc) Cons: No 3.5 audio jack No ambient light sensor No hardware qwerty keyboardRead full review
Awesome phone! I've been addicted to it. It was a tremendous update from my G1. Hardware-wise, the Mytouch 4G is much faster than the G1, internal memory is more than enough for all the apps I want, and comes with a generous SD card for my music and videos. The front and back camera also added a lot of new uses for the phone. The phone feels sturdy and it doesn't get bulky even after a gel case. Touch screen is very responsive and screen size is generous. Speaker and headphone jack also make it great for listening to music while on the go. Software wise, Android has come a long way. I wasn't too dependent on data plans while on the G1, but this one makes data plans worthwhile. User interface is much more enjoyable than before while holding its speed. Swype has also made not having a physical keyboard bearable. I practically like this phone more than my laptop! I use it for just about everything, anywhere, at anytime. Only complaint, like most others have mentioned is battery life. With the right battery control apps, I'm averaging 24-36 hrs with moderate use. At least charging only takes 2 hours or so, and then its good for another day.Read full review
