PCWorld: Review – T-Mobile myTouch 4G Android Smartphone
PC World reviewer Ginny Mies gives this smartphone high marks for its bright 3.8-inch screen and generally excellent design and performance – but warns that to get the most from it you must be in a coverage area with the highest-speed HSPA+ network.
“The latest addition to the T-Mobile myTouch family, the myTouch 4G ($200 with a two-year contract from T-Mobile; price as of 10/28/2010), has the most impressive specs of the myTouch phones to date boasting a front-facing video camera, HSPA+ data speeds and HD video recording. HSPA+ coverage isn’t everywhere however–and might be spotty in cities that do support it.
High Quality Design
Like the other myTouch phones, the myTouch 4G comes in a handy case for storing all of your phone’s accessories. The first thing I noticed about the phone is its stylish, yet sturdy design. HTC-designed, the phone feels more high quality than the previous, plasticky myTouch models. The plastic is still there (on the face of the phone and on the hardware buttons), but the device is primarily metal and has the feel of a higher-end phone. The phone will come in four colors: white, black, plum or red.”
