T-Mobile has an impressive selection of Android phones with around thirteen types available for you to choose from. The myTouch 4G and the G2 are notable T-mobile phones because of their 4G connectivity and smart design. The Samsung Vibrant does not have 4G, but is a light, thin phone with good, practical features. I believe these to be the best Android phones from T-mobile and this article will describe why. The five top features of the myTouch 4G that make it the best T-Mobile Android are:
High speed connectivity using T-Mobile's 4G network (arguably the largest 4G network in the US)
1GHz Snapdragon processor, allowing you to run multiple applications at once while moving quickly between various functions
Wi-Fi calling
Hotspot functionality
Premier finish (metal back and ceramic plastic bezel)
The myTouch is available to you in white, black, purple and red. The myTouch has an impressive, large 3.8-inch screen (800 x 480 pixel LCD touch screen) with good viewing even from side angles or in direct sun light. The clarity of the calling is good, with an excellent speakerphone. Internet connectivity is rapid due to T-Mobile's impressive 4G HSPA+ network, and I consider this to be the strongest feature of the phone. The only other T-Mobile Android to run on T-Mobile's 4G networks is the G2. Both phones give you quick download speeds of around 2 Mbps, which is quicker than the other major networks. There is also the option with the myTouch to use it as a wireless hotspot or to connect it directly to the laptop. Both are easy and quick to set up. Wireless hotspot will cost you an additional ten Dollars. The myTouch is currently running on the Android Froyo operating system (i.e. Android 2.2). However, it is expected to get the upgrade to Gingerbread soon (i.e. Android 2.3). Though Froyo is not the latest operating system from Android it is still relatively fresh and brings with it Flash 10.1 to allow better web browsing. The interface of the myTouch is highly customizable and comes pre-installed with a wide variety of great apps. One downside to having the pre-installed apps is that you are not able to delete any of them. This does tend to clutter the screen slightly with apps you might not need but does not alter functionality. That said, if you 'root' your device you are able to customize the phone to your liking, and can delete factory-installed apps. The multimedia options on this phone are brilliant, with 1 GB of built-in storage together with a 8GB MicroSD card; you will have plenty of storage room to store all your music and videos. There is a front facing VGA camera for video calling and a 5-mega-pixel camera on the back that takes reasonably sharp, high quality shots. Unless, having a physical keyboard is a high priority for you, the myTouch is the T-Mobile Android for you.
The G2 from T-Mobile has many similar features to the myTouch, but has a physical keyboard. The G2 also has a 'vanilla' Google interface, so if that is something you enjoy go for the G2. You might be asking what is a 'vanilla' Google interface. Quiet simply, it is the default user interface on the Android operating system. Most of the manufacturers then build their unique user interface that sits on top of the Android version. The only downside to these manufacturer overlays is that the overlays need to be updated for new versions of Android. This takes longer to get the upgrade. Many users also prefer the 'vanilla' version from a cosmetic point of view.
If having a physically light and thin phone is important to you, then the Samsung Vibrant is your best option. It is a great phone, but note: it does not come with 4G.
Regardless of which T-Mobile Android you choose, you might be interested to note that T-Mobile is currently running an unlimited talk, text and data special that is a total of $80 per month. Similar plans on Sprint will cost you $110 and Verizon $120, hence, T-Mobile's rate plans are very competitively priced.
