Google Android myTouch 3G
Though myTouch 3G according to some analyst is an effort too little too late when compared to Apple iPhone 3GS but still T-Mobile’s myTouch 3G loaded with Google Android can kick Apple’s butt.
By rejecting the Google voice app from iTunes App store, Apple gave T-Mobile myTouch 3G a boost as Google Voice App which can run on myTouch 3G, can make a difference for customers looking for phone with Google Voice.
The myTouch 3G was formerly known as the HTC Magic, will eventually replace T-Mobile’s G1 Android phone, which has had sales of more than one million. Unlike the Palm Pre, but like the Apple iPhone 3G S, the myTouch 3G won’t have a keyboard. It also looks similar to the iPhone. The iPhone 3G S has more memory than the My Touch 3G. Feature wise both phones have all the latest smartphone functionality.
When it comes to price factor, iPhone is a clear winner as the price options for the myTouch 3G is not attractive. The new phone comes in at $199 (same as the iPhone 3G S and the Palm Pre) with a two-year T-Mobile contract. But for $199 you only get a myTouch 3G with a 4GB memory card (microSD, user-upgradable up to 16GB), while for the same price you can grab a brand-new iPhone 3G S or Palm Pre with either 16GB or 8GB (Pre) of storage.
It will take some time for Google to provide the number of Apps to the Android operated phones as compared to the 65000 apps available right now for iPhone 3GS on iTunes Store.
