I have to admit to Waiting for the N97 havin heard all the good things about it and not wanting an IPHONE because lets face it everyone has one these days and honestly didnt want to feel like i was just jumping on the band wagon. Anyway having realised the N97 wasnt the finished article and way too expensive opted for the T-mobile G2 touch which is the hero in Disguise. I have to admit to being blown away.
I have heard alot of negative comments about the chin, trackball, back button and touch response times and to be honest they havent really been an issue for me. I have had the phone for about 3 weeks now and in that time i have grown to love the chin, back button has become second nature to me and actually quite like where it is, the touch screen is absolutely perfect and i have never actually used the trackball and love the way it flashes when i have an e-mail or txt when in silent mode.
The thing that should elevate this phone to the 5 G's i think it deserves is definately the apps store. Thousands of apps, alot free and really useful, personal favouries are the advanced task manager, Layar, Google Maps and the various quick toggle widgets available. Apps store is quick and simple with no stress and you can find the most stupid and useless apps that soon become must haves.
You can also customise the phone into next week. Different scenes available almost seem endless and the 7 difference screens can be customised to your hearts content.
Probable downsides for me would be the camera which isnt the best, when first booted it up i did have a problem with forced close messages and battery does die quickly but 1 didnt buy this to be a camera 2 Layar makes you forget the crappy camera 3 forced close issue has come to and end and the battery issue is probably my fault because cant help but have loads of different apps at the same time.
I have to admit to having fallen in love with this phone, i havent owned an iphone so definately not in a position to say this is better but for half the price of an iphone and amazing price plans available, you would find it hard to get a better phone at the moment.
