By: t-marco May 18th, 2011

Thanks to This is my next … we can see T-Mobile’s plans about what phones will show up this year. T-Mobile is will launch a bunch of phones, even nobody knows about if AT&T acquisition will pass.  Lets Start :

June:

T-Mobile will launch the HTC Sensation 4G on June 8th, together with the new Samsung Hawk or Exhibit 4G. Not only those 2 phones will come to T-Mo in June.  Back in March, we told you about a new mid range Android phone coming to T-Mobile, this was the Samsung T589, now knows as Gravity Touch 2 or GT2. and now its smart, not like the other Gravities.  The GT2 is a midrange device though, a 3.2″ touchscreen, a full physical side-sliding QWERTY keyboard, a 3 MP camera with LED flash, and an 800 MHz processor. The GT2 will run Android 2.2 Froyo when it launches.

T-Mo will launch, also in June 8th another Mobile Hotspot, a 42Mbps HSPA+ mobile hotspot with 802.11n capability and a built-in display. The Huawei E587 “Wayne”

Now, we move to June 15th. Another Samsung, and this time The Galaxy Mini aka Samsung T499 Tass, and on June 29th, Samsung t379 “Triumph” will come as a Gravity 4 (not Android this time).

Wow, what a June.!!

T-Mobile G-Slate review by BGR

By: t-marco April 19th, 2011

The T-Mobile G-Slate is the most wanted device so far.. the problem?  no yet available ( until tomorrow ) and very pricy. However, our friends from BGR, had the tablet and made a nice and constructive review to let us know how is the performance of the G-Slate.

Zach Epstein reviewing for BoyGeniusReport writes: “I don’t see the G-Slate going very far with average consumers. It’s also a bit pricey at $529.99 with a two-year data contract. Honeycomb tablets don’t have much competition yet, but the G-Slate will likely still be near the top of the heap even once more competition begins to trickle out.”

The G-Slate costs $529 with a two-year contract ($750 no contract), available stating tomorrow.
