I’m enjoying my Mytouch, played with the iphone and have to admit, yes Apple does have the touch screen tech locked down but that just wasn’t enough for me to move to At&T. Mostly everything that the Mytouch can do I like and use often. Of course there’s small gripes (battery life mostly) and what not but isn’t that the case with “all” the smartphones nowadays. Everyone has different tastes in what they want in a phone just need to find one that fits you and your life style I guess. Cheers to the Mytouch and here’s hoping the Android OS becomes successful.

I have had t-mobile since my first cell phone also, and I had ridiculously good service… and customer service for that matter.
Okay so you get an iphone and pay 200 -300 bux to get it with a new plan from AT&T—-
BUT… whats the plan gonna cost you?? — an arm and a leg!
I have friends that think they are cool because they have an iphone, but I have to email them instead of text message from my smartphone(mytouch) because they don’t have an unlimited plan like I do.
If you have an unlimited plan on t-mobile its about 70-80 bux depending where you are, and thats unlimited everything!!!! (talk, text, web, and visual voicemail)
On ATT, its about 150 bux for an unlimited everything plan give or take some dollars… but i know its no less than 130-140.
Most of my friends are not willing to pay that much money for their great phone to have great service so they are always counting minutes and texts —- that blows!!!!
Whats having a great car if it costs you twice as much for gas………. Would u drive it?….. yah right!!!
iphone users, t-mobile users, aliens, peter griffin and his family all know that ATT charges waaaaaaay too much.
I mean, c’mon!, you have to pay 35 bux or so for a data plan…. and that doesn’t even include texts?…. and then u gotta pay like 15 bux for not even unlimited texts… that blows!!

I just upgraded from a BB Curve 8900 to a MyTouch 3G. Other than the usual difficulties acclimating to a new phone, the biggest downer for MyTouch is the short battery life. Even on low-use days, the phone is dead within 6 hours after a full charge. This is a major drawback for people who travel and don’t always have the wherewithal to recharge the phone every 6 hours. Other than that, the jury is still out. Wanted to stay with T-Mobile not only because of family plan ( have 2 other lines on my account), but because I have had AT&T in past and it sucked. iPhone might be an option in the future since I’m a Mac user anyway, but the restrictions and limited availability of apps make it less appealing.

In my case, I can’t get an iPhone unless I want to spend an extra $750 due to bad credit. However, I can get a MyTouch with T-Mobile FlexPay. Which means I can save that extra $750 to put towards a bigger, better Apple machine… The only thing that sucks is that I use MobileMe, and I really like it. I use the storage to backup important photos and documents, it’s nice to access my calender and address book anywhere… it’s tough. If AT&T had a service similar to FlexPay, I would definitely get an iPhone over the MyTouch, no question about it.

But then there are more important things to worry about (death, famine, war, etc.)

Hey I guys I was an owner of a iphone 3g and no question the iphone is great, but than I had to switch to tmobile and got the mytouch. At first wasn’t too impressed but now I would take it over my iphone anyday. I love that I can hold music and pics on it like a little harddrive and can go to any pc and share your music unlike itunes. Also I noticed the speed on mytouch is so much faster than the iphone. Also almost all the apps for the mytouch are free and my bill is way cheaper than when I was with att. I know att service is good but in Atlanta tmobile service is fantastic. I love my new mytouch and love how everything works on it and again the speed on it is outstanding.

I agree. The camera is excellent. I’m shocked how good my pictures and so are those who seem them when I post them.

I would prefer this phone ’cause i would use a smartphone seriously and not goof off with a virtual lightsaber or dummy cannon app (pooints at IPhone). Also, I hate conformity more than war and Macs so the customization is a bit of a God send. Can anyone tell me if the MP3 is any good?

I have also been with tmobile since i got my first cell phone but unlike you i have had amazing luck with their service… i have never had dropped calls or receptions issues and i was extremely excited when the mytouch came out… i am not happy with the price ill have to pay so i am going to wait before i purchase one but my bf just bought the iPhone as he is a ATT customer and i honestly dont think its what everyone crack it up to be… the phone quality is horrible… almost impossible to hear him sometimes… doesnt have reception in areas where my typical tmobile samsung has full reception…some websites are almost impossible to see and are unable to zoom in on and the applications are endless but most of them are useless and a waste of phone memory as well! Maybe ill be disappointed when i finally get the mytouch but as for the iPhone being the one…. very overrated in my opinion

Apple is definitely not ahead.

The reason people like this phone because they get to customize it, make it their own phone and not being like everyone else.
There is nothing great about the IPhone, try it and hate every minute of it.

Exactly, I have been with T-Mobile since…..I bought my first cell phone. The calls drop and the phones suck, but with the entire family and friends on t-mobile, it saves me a lot of money, not to mention we are in a family plan now, and all do a lot of texting, no one can beat t-mobiles texting plan. I am excited to see some decent phones coming our way.

However I hate the fact that the iPhone is looked upon as the “God” of all phones, it is in NO means perfect. It took how many years to get video? Not to mention all the proprietary garbage. Yes they have mastered the touch screen, and the Apps are endless, and I think thats why many people are willing to overlook the major downfalls of the iPhone.

Granted the iPhone is a good phone, I had one hacked for t-mobile for about 1 year, it just died and I am looking for something else but I don’t want to play the whole hacking game any more. So I say keep it up, T-Mobile needs a decent phone lineup.
