Sequels are rarely better than the originals but the HTC Magic Android G2 Handset trumps its G1 predecessor in nearly every respect (we are waiting on pricing and tariffs before we give it the full thumbs up).
The HTC Magic Android G2 phone looks not too dissimilar to a white version of the G1
but somehow manages to avoid looking as ugly. It’s like HTC took all the best bits from the look of the G1 and left out the wonky knees and elbows (like when an awkward teenager grows into their body over a long summer ^^).
All the details and specs via the official press release below but it looks like the HTC Magic Android G2 phone is an Android phone
Google can be proud of. Video courtesy of Stuff.
