Android-Smartphone T-Mobile G2 offiziell vorgestellt

News

Nach den Spekulationen der letzten Wochen, ist nun die Katze aus dem Sack, denn T-Mobile USA hat das T-Mobile G2 offiziell vorgestellt. Entegen den ersten Informationen wird das T-Mobile G2 aber nicht mit einem 1GHz Snapdragon Prozessor laufen, sondern es soll ein anderes Modell verbaut haben. So kommt ein weiterer Chipsatz der Scorpion-Reihe zum Einsatz, der Qualcomm MSM7230, welcher mit 800 MHz getaktet sein wird.

Zudem wird im G2 die neuere Adreno 205 GPU genutzt, welche erhebliche Leistungsverbesserungen zur Vorgängerversion, welche im Nexus One und HTC Desire verbaut ist, bringen soll. Unterm Strich wird der Chipsatz trotz niedrigerer Taktrate also leistungsfähiger sein.

Das Gerät, welches des weiteren ein 3.7-Zoll AMOLED-Display, 4GB internen Speicher und eine 5 Megapixel Kamera mit 720p Videoaufnahme verbaut haben soll, ist mit Android 2.2 bestückt. Zudem ist der untere Button eine Art optischer Joystick ist, den man in dieser Form schon des Öfteren gesehen hat. Das G2 wird eines der wenigen Smartphone, welches eine HSPA+ Datenübertragung beherrscht. HTCs hauseigene Sense-Oberfläche ist nicht an Bord, als kleine Zugabe wird allerdings die Swype-Tastatur bereits vorinstalliert sein.

HTC bestätigte auf der IFA mit einem Augenzwinkern die Verfügbarkeit des Gerätes auch in Europa. Wer in letzter Zeit aufmerksam mitgelesen hat, wird bereits wissen, unter welchem Namen es wohl hierzulande erscheinen soll. ;) Was haltet Ihr vom G2?

Introducing the T-Mobile G2 with Google — the First Smartphone Delivering 4G Speeds on T-Mobile’s Super-Fast HSPA+ Network

T-Mobile, Google and HTC re-team to deliver the groundbreaking successor to the T-Mobile G1; Exclusive preorder for current T-Mobile customers begins later this month

BELLEVUE, Wash. — Sept. 9, 2010 — T-Mobile USA, Inc. today unveiled the T-Mobile® G2™ with Google™, delivering downloads at 4G speeds1, a blazing fast web browsing experience and tight integration with Google services. The G2 breaks new ground as the first smartphone specifically designed for T-Mobile’s new HSPA+ network2, which covers 100 million Americans in more than 55 major metropolitan areas across the country. The G2 is an ultra-powerful smartphone designed by HTC and is the highly anticipated successor to the
T-Mobile G1, the world’s first Android™-powered mobile phone, pairing a large 3.7-inch screen with a unique hinge design that opens to reveal a full QWERTY keyboard. Current T-Mobile customers will get exclusive access to preorder the G2 starting later this month.

“T-Mobile ignited the spark that set the Android world ablaze two years ago with the launch of the world’s first Android-powered mobile phone, the T-Mobile G1, which remains an important milestone for both T-Mobile and the Android operating system,” said Cole Brodman, chief technology and innovation officer, T-Mobile USA. “Now, with the launch of the T-Mobile G2, we are re-teaming with our partners at Google and HTC to provide T-Mobile customers with another first — the first Android smartphone designed to deliver 4G speeds on our new network.”

“One of the advantages of an open platform is the opportunity for developers to create rich mobile experiences and seamlessly get those experiences into the hands of consumers,” said Andy Rubin, vice president, engineering, Google. “From new services, such as Voice Actions, to mobile applications, developer-led Android innovation is flourishing. On Android Market alone, the number of applications available to consumers has grown from just 50 applications two years ago to more than 80,000 applications today.”

“Two years ago, HTC and T-Mobile worked together to deliver the world’s first Android phone, the T-Mobile G1. From that start, Android has grown to be the leading smartphone platform in the U.S., and one of the most popular globally,” said Peter Chou, chief executive officer, HTC Corporation. “With today’s announcement of the G2, HTC and T-Mobile are once again bringing a breakthrough Android product to market.”

The first smartphone specifically designed to deliver 4G speeds on T-Mobile’s new HSPA+ network, the G2 is optimized for performance to provide customers with blazing fast access to a world of information through websites, applications, videos, file downloads and more. Built on Android 2.2, the G2 offers seven customizable home screen panels, including a dedicated panel with one-click access to your favorite Google applications such as Android Market™, which currently offers more than 80,000 applications.

The T-Mobile G2 delivers a powerful mobile data experience that is tightly integrated with Google Voice™, as well as packed with Google applications such as Voice Actions™ from Google, Google Goggles™ and more. It is one of the first smartphones in the industry to offer the new Voice Actions feature of Google Search™, which allows you to control your phone with your voice for calling contacts and businesses, sending messages, browsing the Web, listening to music and completing common tasks. It is also the first smartphone to offer integrated access to Google Voice™, allowing customers to create a new account using their current mobile number right from the home screen. Google Voice then automatically transcribes voicemails to text so customers can read them like an e-mail or text message from their phone or online. Additional pre-loaded Google services include Google Search, Google Mail™, Google Maps™ with Places and Navigation, YouTube™, Google Talk™ and Google Earth™, among others.

Adding fuel to the G2’s speed is its Snapdragon™ MSM7230 mobile processor which combines Qualcomm’s new HSPA+ capabilities and second generation applications processor. The Snapdragon MSM7230 offers an 800 MHz CPU and is optimized to deliver exceptional performance, long battery life and leading edge multimedia and web browsing — with download speeds faster than other solutions currently in the market.

The G2 delivers advanced smartphone features including an HD video camera for recording crystal-clear, high-definition (720p) videos that can be automatically uploaded to your Photobucket account and a 5-megapixel camera with LED flash and autofocus. The G2 also offers smartphone essentials such as easy access to personal and work e-mail, including support for Microsoft® Exchange e-mail, contacts and calendar; social networking; and instant messaging. In addition, the G2 features a pre-installed 8GB microSD memory card with support for up to 32 GB, as well as a music player.
