                so sad, i went to ask about the HTC Hero, Magic & Dream here in KSA and the retailer told me that it will be long before these devices to be available here due to there is no support to ARABIC language in the Android OS :(

                          Msjazz79's review on the T-Mobile G1


                          Ive had my Tmobile G1 phone since January 2009. When I first received it within a week, I had to call Tmobile because the battery in the unit was overheating. So they promptly sent me out a replacement but unfortunately THAT one was defective and wouldn't even turn on. So by the third time, it was finally a charm, but still was having a battery overheating issue even by the third one, so when I called back Tmobile for a 4th time they offered to exchange it out again but I told them to just send me a battery replacement, because I didn't want to go through all the trouble again to download all the apps I had on it. So since I changed out the battery I have had better success.



                          Some great things about the phone are the different applications that are made for it to allow you to make your phone completely unique to you. One of my favorite apps is called OPEN HOME, it allows you to change your background screens, icon looks to such a degree that at first glance it makes you take a double take at the screen. I highly recommend the program another program I use is called BETTER KEYBOARD that allows you to change the look of the keyboard. Very nice. The Android Market is great for direct download of apps but I do wish that it had a software system connection for PC such as the Application store for the Apple Itouch and IPhone. I own an Apple Itouch and must say I do enjoy the convenience of going online checking reviews and seeing screenshots of the software before I decide to download an app. I think if this option was made available it would help customers out and not clog the network so badly with delayed downloads. Last but certainly not least is the keyboard, I enjoy a physical keyboard, I have a bit of a heavy hand when it comes to my phones and I type very quickly so being able to touch actually keys versus a touchscreen keyboard is a plus. Yet I know that it does add to the bulk of the phone I do think for myself it is a necessity.


                          The biggest gripes I have had with the phone have been the accessories, camera, battery life, and internal memory. Also another issue that comes to mind is finding accessories, especially cases for the phone. I guess this can be attested to the keyboard but still even with different cases that are out there and for the phone to almost to have been out for a year, it still is very lacking. With the camera I will say compared to other phones I've had in the past such as LG and Motorola, the camera is simply horrible. Yet I have seen some improvements with the cupcake update but that is only through an application I downloaded called SnapPhoto Pro. I recommend it over the camera software that came with the phone. The battery life definitely will drain big if you are on the internet, but I find it even drains quickly when I'm on phone calls that last about 10 minutes or so, not for hours at a time. The internal memory is a reallly big issue. For all the apps on Android Market it becomes a game of playing which apps to keep on your phone. I think the phone really was a big disapointment in that aspect.


                          Overall I've been happy with the phone but it is far from perfect.


                          PROS

                          Operating system- Like the freedom Google has given to the OS system in regards to development and user friendly to understand features

                          Android Market- great pipeline to new software

                          Keyboard- I type so fast that Im not a big fan of the touchscreen keyboards, I prefer a physical one.


                          CONS

                          Battery Life- To me drains fully within under 4 hours of regular not extreme usage

                          Camera- pictures are grainy even after auto-focus

                          Weight- it's a bit of a brick

                          Internal Memory- too little especially if you want to take advantage of Android Market
