I've had this phone for a couple of months now and, after the cupcake upgrade, is very good. Battery has improved greatly (with 3g off and wifi on). I also have two iphone's 2g and 3g which I find to be a lot slower than the Dream. Market is great too.The feel is a bit bulky.. but you get used to it. Screen great, camera not bad.

            This phone is great, and not just because of the OS, but that's a large part of it. As a developer for the OS I find it perfect in every way. As for the phone itself, it does have pretty terrible battery life and feels pretty flimsy in your hand. I wouldn't want to drop it very much. It's also kind of big.

            The battery life downside can be fixed by simply turning off the "Auto Sync" feature of the phone. If you need email notifications, use the Email software, and not the Gmail, you can configure it to check less frequently (auto sync syncs *everything* every 5 minutes, that's what kills your battery).

                    Great phone! Love it but the battery sucks after charging it, i have to charge it two times daily on a basic function like sms, playing with the phone and surfing the net.. for about an hour the battery is half the capacity.. but over all performance is grat its like an iphone... 3d graphics is just awesome apps awsome but unlike iphone it doesnt have any virtual keyboard.. touch screen is great btw i have g1, iphone and pixon.. i used to have the xperia but the screen size is small and the edge of the screen on xperia make it difficult to use the touchscreen...

                    In short this phone rocks, not an iphone killer but an iphone competitor and it can compete with the cupertino's pride...

                        Evidently the battery life depends on the usage, which makes sense.

                        Turning features off that you might not be needing, things that are by default running, turning down the screen brightness as it already is bright enough you can take steps to prolong the battery life for the day. you still are gonna end up charging at least once a day, say through the night, maybe give it some juice here and there if you have a charger for the car.

                        But if your constantly surfing the web, taking and responding to emails/IMs and making constant calls then you can expect the phone to drain rather quickly. Wonder when we'll start seeing newer batteries with amazingly long charge times.

                              what did you do on that 8 hour Stephan? if idle then the battery must be damaged.

                              Is this a new version of G1 or just the name different? any thing new on this Dream?

                                      Hey everyone. Can HTC Dream view chinese words?

                                      I've recently used this phone and found out that the chinese characters are not shown.

                                      Someone please advise this? Thank you!

                                        i have the g1, and the battery does NOT last nearly as long as it says it does. i would use the phone, and about 2 hours later, my phone would die. another thing about this phone is that it does not have microsoft on it.. you have to buy it for 15 dollars and it also currently does NOT have java. that's one thing that i've always hated since i use the internet on this phone a lot. the speaker phone's sound is pretty good. the music player isn't that good, but once you download the mixzing player, it is great! overall, the phone is alright, but just not for me.
