T-Mobile myTouch 4G Review
Score: 44.4 / 100T-Mobile myTouch 4G is a not so powerful Android cellphone launched back in the year 2010, featuring a fast processor clocking at 1000 MHz, a medium sized 3.8 inches capacitive screen, and two cameras, a 5 MP back-facing camera and a 0.3 MP front-facing camera.
T-Mobile decided to power this device with a Qualcomm Snapdragon S2 MSM8255 system chip, packing a powerful 1 gigahertz CPU with 768 MB of RAM. Graphic rendering generally consume lots of processing power, so it has a 245 MHz Adreno 205 GPU to help the processor with those tasks.
It appears that T-Mobile decided not to care so much about the weight in this 5 oz cellphone. This cellphone's thickness , 0.43 inches, is a little bit far from current standards, but it still feels quite fine in the user's hand.
This phone is equipped with two cameras, a 5 mega-pixels back side camera and a 0.3 mega-pixels front facing camera. It is capable of filming HD 1280x720 videos. This phone also has a couple of nice features: flash, face detection shooting and auto-focus.
T-Mobile designed this cellphone with a interesting 3.8-inches screen, and a resolution of 800 x 480 , which makes all pictures and videos look very good. This screen uses TFT capacitive technology, and allows multi-touch gestures.
This phone comes with a 1400 mAh medium Li-Ion battery providing the T-Mobile myTouch 4G with a below average battery life. According to T-Mobile, this cellphone has an aproximate talk time of 10 hs and a stand by time of 432 hs.
This phone offers Wi-Fi connectivity (although it can't share it with other devices around, acting as a mobile hotspot) and the fastest 3G data connection, supported by HSDPA, HSUPA, UMTS and EDGE technologies. This phone works with a SIM card to use GSM services.
This cellphone also features a few nice features such as Bluetooth (2.1, EDR), GPS Geolocation and FM Radio, and a couple sensors likeLight Sensor, Proximity Sensor and Accelerometer.
T-Mobile offers the T-Mobile myTouch 4G for 70 dollars, which is very expensive for comparing with similar cellphones.
