T Mobile G1 White

T Mobile G1 White

It's the first in a new breed of mobile phones. It's the first ever phone to be powered by Google Android. It gives you complete access to Google Apps, Google Maps, Gmail, and Gtalk, plus full internet access. It's the T Mobile G1, and it's set to change the world of mobile phones!

Some mobile phones, by their very nature, are important, whether it's because they're the first to come with a 5 megapixel camera, or the first ones that have GPS, or the first to give you, the customer, something cool new. Well, unleashed recently is a handset that could almost be the textbook definition of 'brand new': the Google Android-powered T Mobile G1, the first of its kind, anywhere in the world!

Google Android

It's blatantly obvious that the T Mobile G1 sets out to do what it does differently than any other mobile phones, and that ethos stems from the fact it's the first phone in history to be designed around Google Android, a completely new, not-seen-on-any-mobile-phones-before operating system. In addition to that, it's a totally open-source operating system, meaning that absolutely anyone can produce applications for it, adding ANY software feature they need! In order for those apps to find their way all over the world, the T Mobile G1's got 'Android Marketplace', a web store, where you can download applications that will make your T Mobile G1 do just about anything!

The downloading fun doesn't finish with that, however, since you also have access to the Amazon MP3 Store, with the T Mobile G1, letting you browse and purchase any track from the 6 million DRM-free tracks in their catalogue, no matter where you are!

Online Life

Mind you, since you'll get all that web action with the T Mobile G1, you'll need fast internet access, right? Well, that's exactly what you'll have, since the T Mobile G1 connects through HSDPA, giving you speeds of up to 7.2Mbps. That makes buying applications and tunes incredibly fast, but you'll also see the benefits when you connect to the web (using a browser very like Google Chrome for desktops), or if you use Google Apps. Add that to push email using Gmail, and you're onto a winner. And that's before you even boot up Google Maps, including Street View, on the T Mobile G1. With the built-in GPS and digital compass, you can change your view of the street (and showing kind of digital signposts, in future), just by moving the phone. That's truly useful, and simply fabulous to use!

Of course, in spite of the exciting new part being the Google Android software, the hardware doesn't skimp on the T Mobile G1, either. So, you also get a 3 megapixel camera, and the sliding display opens to unveil a full QWERTY keyboard, so actually writing emails in Gmail is the simplest thing in the world! There's no doubt about it: it's fresh, it's funky, and it does things in its own way. It must be the unique T Mobile G1!
