it's been a week since i got the G1. i guess being a 1st gen phone and where you came from plays an important factor rating this phone. i came from an N95 and a mature symbian platform. there's a lot to be desired but it's got very good potential and i like the way it's turning out. overall i'll rate it 4 stars simply because it is too premature to get a perfect score
I'd rate it 4 as well
battery life is keepin me from enjoying the fun this phone brings...uuuuuuuuugggggggggggghhhhhhhhh.....
1.5 Club...
I've had mine a week, coming from a 4-year BlackBerry binge, the latest was a Titanium Curve. I kept the Curve because I didn't know if I was going to make the switch full-time. I'm happy to say that since opening the G1 box I haven't touched my Curve and I have no intention of doing so, ever. Sure, the G1 is not perfect out of the gate. But I LOVE it. And I have every reason to believe that all remaining issues are going to be fixed and even surpassed in the near future.
If we are comparing my HTC wizard which was a -758 out of 5 to my experience with the G1 I'd have to say it is a 4.5 out of 5.
The ONLY thing I miss is:
Remote Desktop, I miss remoting into my Windows box whenever the hell I feel like it. SSH to my linux machine has been nice since that app came out but the lack of RDC is why I can not give it 100%.
Main concerns would be the resetting which I haven't had since the hard reset, the freezing which doesn't happen too often, and last was the battery which also seems to have gotten better, but then again im at work and not using it as much as I do in my free time so not quite sure on that, final result. 3.5 out of 5 Im sure with some firmware updates here and there i'll think otherwise, untill then.............
4 of 5. my biggest complaint that i can think of is the inability to save pictures from sms/mms
I absolutely love my G1. Fortunately, I haven't had many problems - never had it freeze up, OS runs fast (I have 21 apps installed right now but am going to delete a few of them - just testing some out) and my battery life has become much better over time. I have a few issues, of course, but I'm an optomistic person. I was expecting imperfection but the G1, for me, has exceeded my initial expectations. Coming from a Dash, I'll give it 4.5 stars.![]()
5 stars.
Amazing upgrade from my old phone.
Only complaint from me is AIM not staying connected an all.
