[Q / Poll ] MyTouch4G or HD7? Advice / Experiences etc please..

I am currently getting service from Tmobile USA and I have been waiting for a real high end phone to come out so I can upgrade to it -now that the MyTouch4G and the HD7 are coming out -I am thinking about getting one or the other
...so far one thing that disappoints me about both of them is that they seem to have just a regular LCD screen (not an AMOLED, SLCD, or SAMOLED etc...)...I like the look and eye candy of WP7 and the games it seems to aim for...but then the specs of the MyTouch4G are good because it has a next gen processor and almost 1gb of ram...also it is capable of using Tmobiles new network speeds...(not sure if the hd7 can do that or not)...
Which would you advise me to get? or which would you prefer?

You are the one who will be using it...get what works best for you

thanks, I understand that -but I am really just looking for input from others, maybe they can shed light on another angle or something even...

My understanding is that
the only two phones coming out for HSPA+ are the g2 and the mytouch. HD7 will not support the new speeds. So it depends on what you are looking to accomplish. Me personally? I wouldn't go hd7 just for that reason alone.

yeah, but I think it will be able to do HSPA thought which would still be faster than just UMTS 3G (Correct me if I am wrong at all)...plus -WP7 looks pretty nice IMO ...

Please -anyone with any opinions or advice(s) ...leave a post here and a vote... thanks =)...
I would think some more people would have something to say since the MT4G has been released already...

I would say...I would choose the HD7, but put the next gen Snapdragon CPU, and the RAM (about 768mbs?) from the Mytouch4G into the HD7. I would also like to take the internet capabilities from the Mytouch4G(HSPA+ I believe?) and put that as well into the HD7...Then I would also like to make the HD7s screen something like an SLCD, AMOLED, or S-AMOLED display...
How does that sound? That is what I like about each...

wait and see what the nexus two has to offer imo

[Q] i need spare phone (suggestions will be appreciated)

Hello everyone i would like to get ur opinion regarding these handsets
samsung s 4g, wife and I owen this one
htc sensation, considering
Tmobile lg2gx, considering
pros and cons from my options

probably best to just google [this phone] vs [this phone] to see all of the unbiased head to heads.
personally id keep the gs4g over both of them simply because of the super amoled display and camera optics. even though the hummingbird core is a little over a year old, its still a beast amongst the dual core phones that are out right now.
ive played with a sensation and a evo3d and found the gs4g to be considerably faster then them. HTC Sense looks great but slows down those devices alot

Wife had a g2x and it wad some crap. I mean some crap.

Go to youtube and check Phonedog and Wirefly. They have reviews of those phones already and they'll put up comparisons between them soon enough.
If you just want our opinions though, I would say HTC Sensation, hands down. It's practically a SGSII but available for T-Mobile.
I'm not sure if I can post these links like this, but here's they are:

Huh?? The galaxy s2 wipes the floor with the sensation. Only thing better about it is the display is higher res. There isn't any phone out that can match the performance camera optics size or screen quality of it. Not saying the sensation isn't a great device...but its CERTAINLY no s2

[Q] need help with a new tmobile phone

So i currently have a Mytouch 3G, so is kinda old already and is time for an upgrade. Here are my choices, now i know of them. I have read much and i know of the specs, but i just need help decided in which from those smart people from here. thank you in advance.
G2X - great powerful cpu, awesome for gaming $150
HTC Sensation - great powerful cpu, better resolution $150
Mytouch 4G Slide - great powerful, actual keyboard (im use to none since i had the 3G) $199
I know alot of other specs but i just didnt want to go into details. If anyone want to talk about the specs in regards to selection but all means, please do so, maybe there is something i am missing which will help me get over the fence.

I was actually in the same boat as you yesterday before I went to the T-Mobile store. I bought the Sensation because it felt the best in my hand and the screen and UI looked the best out of the three. I would try them out if you can, it'll definitely make it easier to decide. Once I tried the Sensation it just seemed like the obvious choice. (but you might have a different preference)

I would go for the mytouch. Looks like a great phone.

i might have to go to the store and do just that.

Which smartphone shoudl I buy ?

Hello.
I'm searching for a phone right now.
I'm thinking about buying the G2x but I was wondering if you guys can show me something better ?
I want a fast smartphone, reliable, powerful ?
Budget is unlimited.
Thank you

G2X is a very good phone. But if you're willing to wait a couple of weeks for the Galaxy S 2 to come out you should get that.

Thanks for replying.
The Galaxy S2 will be like.. 4.5" for Tmobile and that's too big for me ;/ !
Like which is better: TMobile G2x, Htc Sensation or MyTOuch 4G Slide ?
I can also consier other phones from tmobile.
I really to buy this tonight !
Thanks

I've read outstanding comments about the MyTouch 4G Slide. The camera is suppose to be the best there is on any phone. And the audio quality is suppose to be superior. But I myself don't like thick phones, which slide out keyboards make.
The Sensation is definitely better than the LG phone and looks and feels better...to me. But the SGS2 would be the best one to get. I thought for a long time that 4.3" is the biggest I would want to go in a phone. But I gave a Samsung Infuse a good try and found my new maximum size increased to 4.5". It was excellent. The SAMOLED+ and Samsung's thin phones are worth it. You would be glad to have an SGS2. The sound quality will be the best there is and the camera will probably rival the MyTouch 4G Slide. The battery life will be better too.

If you need a phone right now I would pick the Sensation. Mytouch 4G Slide if you really want the camera, but like MartyLK I don't like thick phones.

+1 for Samsung Galaxy S 2.
It might not have the CPU of G2x but it has more RAM and so multi-tasking would be pretty smooth.
Since you have an unlim budget and if you are willing for new models to come out, look for these specs.
1GHz+ processor. 1GB RAM. 4G. Preferably a dual core 1GHz and 1GB RAM.
3D phones have the cool factor. However, I personally don't think they are worth it.u
That's about it.

I would also go with Sensation!

Actually, if it worth it, I can wait for the Galaxy S II.
When is it being relased ?
But 4.5" is not too big ?

I would recommend SGSII as well.
Last time I heard, it has a 4.3" display.

It's out of question. The OP wants a good device. Not a cheap or budget device. Non of the Optimus phones(except Optimus 3D, Optimus Black and Optimus 2X... or rather the expensive models in Optimus series.. ) can run Flash.. as they are all ARMv6.

我觉着吧，htc g14蛮不错的~

I have as u can see LG 2x and device is great, my friend have SGS2 And i can tell u that multitasking browsing net loading apps is the same speed. But LG is so mych better in games(cuz of nVidia gpu) . On sgs2 display is much better and battery managment us also better. U should buy sensation only for looks and sensUI. Thats my opinion

I very much enjoy the versatility of the htc sensation 4g with the Android Revolution HD 3.6.11 rom.

After the Sensation what?

So, the Sensation has been out for a while and for me it has not lived up to my expectations. ICS is right around the corner for me but I'm sure it will make things somewhat more bearable until I do upgrade.
What is everyone planning on replacing their Sensation with?
Yesterday, I got to mess around with the Galaxy Note. All I have to say about that phone is that it is obscenely big. I love it. It's the only phone out now that is something truly different. Too bad it's AT&T.
The only other thing that is currently for sale is the Galaxy Nexus. Other than the fact that it's running ICS there isn't much to get excited about. I think I'm going to just keep my Sensation till the New Nexus phone is released and get on that one early.
I'm not a fan of Samsung's phones or touchwiz but I feel like HTC is just making phones while Samsung is experimenting with new forms and new ideas. If Cyanogemod 9 was out and if it were available on Tmo I'd be all over the Note.
What are you hoping to replace your Sensation with?

after so much Android, I'd like to try an iPhone or a WP7 device. then again I have my XE since one week only so I'm still in love

Replacing it now with Galaxy Nexus, ordered international version on dailysteals. I do not need the latest and greatest but want to have no skins and reliable software. I had custom ROMs since G1 but want to see how reliable is original Google software on hardware they test it with.
Sensation will go to DW who will replace her Vibrant.

Galaxy Note.
Or it's future WP7 equivalent because I can.

I'd go for the next iPhone only if it will have a 4" display. I really want to get myself an iPhone and see for myself what's all the fuss about.
But if Jellybean will be as innovative as ICS was when it launched I will definitely stay with Android and go for the next Nexus.

lol there is no fuss, limited close OS with ugly tiles and SMOOTH UI.
Just go and grab am iPod Touch if you really wanna how it looks and acts

I really love the look of new Sony xperias....specially the bottom strip....but i think i need to sacrifice on performance and available rom options if i wanna go with Sony.

Im keeping my sensation for a good while the nexus doesn't worth it 3hours screen on time max bad reception camera isn't great however great display and i have ics on my phone so the gnex isnt so special ...
Will get xperia s once it comes out for canada

Holding out for quad core. Sensation is a great phone for me, minus the dust issue that I'm about to solve with some gasket goo... I'm on phone 4. There really isn't anything spectacular out there for me.

Want a phone with a camera as good as the iphone camera, let's face it the camera is the only thing it has that's better.
Never had a Sony Xperia phone but have heard that they have some of the best optics and Sony is developer friendly. Too bad the good ones hardly come to the US.

On the contrary! As someone else said, sony have become very dev friendly and seem committed to updates. Most xperia phones are getting CM builds too.
That being said I'm loyal to HTC for now - sense is the best skin IMO and AOSP also sick and I have the option of both! While the one series looks sick, I think the sensation will do me fine for at least another year. As of right now quad-core isn't a necessity for me... but we'll see

Quad core ? I hope you guys gonna hold whit you 20 extra batteries during your day ! dual core isn't good imagine quad core

I love HTC and I love Sense and I will be getting the One X on Sprint. The Galaxy Nexus looks appealing but the camera is garbage and since I have a 4 year old the camera is very important to me.

yea i guess u would need a heat sink or some kinda fan on the back of a quad core device too cool it down....

Wherever the developers go, and some of the best stick with HTC phones. Prolly gonna end up with the ATT One X if TMo doesn't get it.

I just got my sensation. To be honest, in my opinion, companies comes out with every new versions of everything. But all in all, they're all the same. I was gonna wait for the HTC One S, but I figured, .3 difference on speed, just a little better on screen res. and beats? Not much of a difference, the sensation alone is fast and snappy, there is no reason for me to get anything high end because the sensation itself is a good device that pretty much do all the work. That's just me though AND, the sensation has a lot of love from the DEVs.

My personal experience is contrary.
My colleagues at work have iphones 4s. They often take photos for documentation. Their pics are generally ok for a phone camera but nothing special.
From what I see on a nearly daily base in real world, iphone photos are in no way superior to the pics I took with my X10i or take with my Sensation, which I think look remarkably clear.
Iphones produce exactly the same amount of crap as other phone cameras do.
Be warned ;-)
