“The G2 is an impressive revival of the original. The keyboard is again excellent, the build quality from HTC is far superior, Android is seen at its very best with the level of integration and the speeds are the fastest I’ve experienced on a smartphone.” - Chris Nuttall
“The G2 reminds me of a Nexus One on steroids and the UI and form factor is a winner – it’s as thin as the N8 that we just got in but it blazes through apps like a Ferrari. I’ve taken a few shots of the device and I’ll be carrying it this weekend and will report back next week. Thus far I’m quite impressed, especially the super-great little pop-out keyboard.” - John Biggs
The G2 is not just an awesome Android phone, it's an awesome phone, period. It's clear that HTC has taken its years of experience with devices in this form factor and applied that knowledge to this device. From a hardware perspective, you'd be hard-pressed to find a more attractive, elegant, or capable landscape QWERTY phone, and as far as software is concerned, T-Mobile seems to be doing its best to offer Android in an untainted form. - Josh Topolsky
Everything that we love about Android 2.2 applies here: It's fast, polished, has a mature app store experience, and the best interface of any Android phone. Period. The keyboard is serious, a boon for road warriors with a serious email jones. - Matt Buchanan
The follow-up to the very first Google phone, the T-Mobile G2 is a powerful smartphone with a great keyboard and a hefty portion of pre-loaded Google services. - Sascha Segan
“One of the best Android devices on the market and the best smartphone phone on T-Mobile at the moment” - Aaron Baker
