Best Android Phone T-Mobile MyTouch 4G?

Best android phone means the one that suits your needs the most. In that sense it depends on your needs. Something that is the "best" for someone does not necessarily mean is best for you either. So if you want an android phone that has a great look n feel, durable design, easy to use and 4G ready then T-Mobile MyTouch 4G worth your attention!.

Below are the main hardware details...

*. 3.8 Inch touch sensitive screen with 400x800 resolution (TFT) display with 16 Million colors.

*. Comes with the Swype keyboard support.

*. Runs android 2.2 Froyo.

*. 768MB RAM.

*. 4GB internal storage (preloaded) + 8GB memory card is also included in the "package" (full memory support up to 32GB via microSD slot.

*. 3G, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth and 4G support.

*. Powered by a single core 1Ghz scorpion processor.

*. VGA processor - Adreno 205.

*. 5MP backside camera with geo tagging, LED flash and auto-focus.

*. FM Radio.

*. 3.5 mm stereo jack + micro USB port.

Standby time is about 552 hours (2G) and Up to 432 h (3G). As usual it has the HTC's customized user GUI called the HTC sense too. As said it has the Swype keyboard (virtual) but if you don't like it you can disable it.

Under the 4G network test run by the cnet touch4G reviewer, you can play Youtube video or any online videos with HD on without any buffering errors or "waiting". Although the processor and the GPU must have helped by it pretty much depends on the quality of the wireless network nonetheless.

Thanks to DLNA support you can stream your captured videos directly to a supporting devices such as HDTV for instance. The 5MP camera again according to Cnet, seems to have pretty decent pictures (have a look at the below pic) too. But slightly loss of quality is visible under bit darker conditions.

Although the call quality seems to be the only major drawback of the T-mobile MyTouch 4G. Not only the audio quality is low but while trying to make video calls on 4G network for instance was troublesome too (you know sometimes video only and other times no video but audio, etc). Although this could be a software problem rather than a hardware (hopefully).

The battery has been recorded to survive about 6 hours  of talk time and 10 days of standby time which is pretty decent. So if you can cope with the low call quality then the MyTouch 4G ain't such a bad choice considering other hardware and software features it pack with.
