Reviewers Didn't Like

  • Confusing keyboard character masking
  • Not the fastest processor
  • Poor hardware buttons, bad visual keyboard design, some creaking in use, misguided Faves Gallery system
  • Camera images somewhat grainy, Faves Gallery offers limited social networking features, 3G signals fade in and around buildings
  • The Faves Gallery doesn't always display the most up-to-date information. Its camera photo quality is subpar
  • No video calling support. Android App store still has limited apps compared to Apple’s App Store
  • No Android Market or Google apps
  • Lack of 3.5mm audio port
  • No Google Maps, No Android Market App, No Bluetooth data transfer, No FM radio
  • Same old interface as the G1, miniUSB connector requires an adapter for using a traditional 3.5mm headset, Awkward connectivity to a computer, Lack of multitouch
  • Poor camera quality and features
  • QWERTY keypad needs improvement; no 3.5mm audio jack; camera lacks flash; battery life not great
  • The lack of flash and zoom add up to a hugely disappointing camera and video camera.Look and Feel
  • Not radically different from the G1. Some may miss the QWERTY keyboard
