The Revolutionary MyTouch 3G Slide
The new MyTouch 3G Slide is one of the most exciting smart phones released in recent months by technology and communications giant T-Mobile. It is designed to be a solid and reliable choice for consumers who may have been interested in smart phones before but also who were afraid of jumping into the market with overly complex technology. The myTouch 3G Slide comes packed with a variety of features to accommodate both new and established smart phone users, including Google’s new Android 2.1 operating system and a physical keyboard. However, it also supports a range of add-ons designed to let consumers get the most out of their smart phone purchase, and MyTouch 3G Slide accessories like cases and screen protectors are great complimentary pieces for the phone. The MyTouch 3G Slide is a sturdy phone, and feels like it in your hands. Weighing only 5.8 ounces, it is still light enough to take with you almost everywhere you go, especially when it is only 4.6 inches long. However, MyTouch 3G Slide cases are still a good idea, as you never know when you might accidentally drop your smart phone while on the go.
One of the best features of the Slide is the included qwerty keyboard. While more and more smart phones manufacturers today have chosen to do away with the physical keyboard for the virtual keyboard on touch screens, the Slide remains loyal to the physical keyboard. The keys are conveniently laid out, making the keyboard easy to use and reducing the risk of errors. For users who also like to be able to use touch screen keyboards, the Slide includes a virtual keyboard that can be activated and used both in portrait and landscape mode, giving users several different ways of inputting text, which is an excellent thing. Above the physical keyboard is the Slide’s 3.4 inch touch screen. The screen is both clear and bright and offers an HVGA resolution, which is a great option for a beginner’s smart phone. The screen is responsive and also offers support for pinch to zoom features. It’s always recommended you purchase a screen protector for your myTouch 3G Slide from retail stores or online vendors.
Beyond the QWERTY keyboard and the touch screen, another bonus of the T-Mobile MyTouch 3G Slide is that runs on Google’s Android Operating System. This is the newest iteration of the operating system Google offers, but when Android 2.2 (Froyo) becomes available later in the year, it will be easy to update the Slide through its online wireless internet capabilities. The current version offers more than enough features for all but the most demanding smart phone users, including a full HTML web browser, numerous Google services such as mail and maps, as well as speech to text.
