T-Mobile employee commented correctly on battery life, I don't think he included one thing in layman's language. Part of the high speed thing is that it runs two radios to help get that speed. Of course running two radios is going to draw more. Most noticable when you run video/audio media. Then of course it depends on what else you leave on all the time (GPS, BT, WiFi, etc.)

I work for T-Mobile so let me explain, measuring battery life outside of call time is trying to say how many days a tank of gas will last in a truck... it impossible(it depends how much you use it and how you use it) so stop saying battery life sucks cuz the G2X has 4G and a duel core so yes since it takes more it will use more... just like a truck compaired to a car, that aside, with any smart phone you will want to root your phone (in this carse super1click)to improve battery life, remove bloat wear, and improve how the phone reacts, the mytouch 4G gets returned at my store more then any other phone besides windows phones and we all know windows phones blow more then Elton John, so all of you mytouch loves need to give the G2X a try, the speakers aren't the loudest on the G2X but they are not any worse then any other phone, also the G2X has DTS so when you plug headphones in or hook it up to your car, home, etc it will sound more clear then any other phone, also the video card is better then any other phone also, if you guys are having 4G problems go to a t-mobile store and get a 4G card and that will solve the problem, otheer then that Android is Android you have to compair the hardwear, with the 2.3 update your battery life will increase in any Android phone, if you guys have questions or problems reply to this and ill help you out

AnonD-9109, 23 May 2011What is the best phone?
LG Optimus2x or T-mobile G2x?
any... moreIf you want an unlocked phone, go with the LG 2x
If you want better feature (and bloatware unfortunately), go with the G2x.
Relatively they are identical other then some differences in the O/S UI design.
You can find both phones on GSMarena. Compare them. They are not much different at all but, to answer your question.
The T-mobile G2x is better. It is very easy to Root, O/S mods are already out via XDA Dev site. If you know how to root and you've gone through everything I've done with it, you can remove the bloatware if you wish and unlock the Data throttling for maximum Down/Up bandwidth B-)
Cheers!

I got the phone from Costco with a coupon for $250 off plus $50 rebate. So I'm paying only $138 for this (include tax after rebate). For this price, I've a 4G phone, front and rear cam, 8mp rear cam, dual core cpu, nVidia Tegra, dts Ultra, HDMI output and a 4" HD screen. I can't complain more with this phone when I paid more for my darn old G1 with less feature and slow as hell. It even has more feature than the G2 which I'm glad I didn't get that.
The cons are battery life like the other said. Standby time is good but once you browse the web or stream video/audio it drain very fast. Also, there's too much useless app installed by T-Mobile. I've to run an app to kill the useless app to free up the ram. I hope people on XDA will have new rom for this soon (haven't check yet)
For people having problem with 4G, make sure you're using the new sim card. My old sim card doesn't work with 4G. I've to get new sim from T-Mobile store to make it work. Once new sim installed, 4G working flawlessly.

fcodaniel, 18 May 2011It is important to indicate that for this device, there is ... more@fcodaniel
That's neat! Did not know that!
::::UPDATE::::
Now, for the WiFi Tethering and USB Tethering.... -_-
It does so appear that T-mobile is governing this new phone or I would think they are?
In my last comment regarding the WiFi Tethering being throttled, I tried the option when I was down in Greensboro, NC. The WiFi Sharing worked great there but.... I am home now in Canton, OH.
Phone SpeedTest.net detects up to 6.5mbps, (That's what I got highest after multiple tests).
PC SpeedTest.net (with WiFi Tethering) detected nothing ("NOTHING") higher than .74kbps.
(While Phone SpeedTest.net still continues to detect previous mentioned speeds)....
PC SpeedTest.net (with USB Tethering) detected 7.89kbps
(7mbs a second!).
I'm not sure if trying Wifi Sharing again after USB tethering will show a change... I'm just content now that the WiFi Tethering option is being throttled by T-mobile deliberately, for whatever reason.. depending on the region where you live and have 4G speeds, like myself.
Another reason why I think the phone never came with USB drivers!!!! I had to scurvy through forums to find out you have to download them from LG's website.
huh... anyway.. so... USB Tethering works awesome for my laptop whereas, WiFi Tethering seems to only work (at 4G speeds), when it wants to.
