And the obligatory unboxing of the HTC Magic has finally arrived, performed below by Sascha from NetBookNews.de. He has done 100 or so Netbook unboxings but the HTC Magic is his first Smartphone unboxing… cheers Sascha!
He had the Black HTC Magic and apparently most people had the White version which I found surprising. He calls it “pretty competitive” when compared to the iPhone and G1 but I think he is just being shy and meant to say the HTC Magic is the uber-jam-diggity, right Sascha?
[Thanks Brian!]
Wow! This guy is quite eccentric lol.
I’ve been using the magic firmware on the g1 for a month now and its fully functional. Its rather lame T-Mobile has decided to not release the upgrade just to trump up the g2 as some sort of “Upgrade”. Its the same damn phone with its exterior slightly redesigned.
Who says T-Mobile has “decided” not to release the cupcake upgrade? Last news I heard, T-Mobile Germany set a rough release date. AFAIK there’s no reason to think the US won’t get it, too.
i think i might end up waiting for the samsung Phone if it come out on T-mobile as an upgrade to my g1
Nice that it got Opera Mini. Gets my national pride up ;) (Opera is a Norwegian Company)
Germany gets predominantly BLACK G2 Magics.
For someone who has done 100 or so unboxings, his are pretty bad. Ya, it’s not a netbook but still…doesn’t seem to know much about android either.
I WANT THE A1 !!!!!!!!!!!!!111
OMG,
He’s so annoying and he doesn’t know much about Android.
Usability 101: If you get a call with any phone you FIRST look for the green button, then you touch the screen, then you click the trackball.
LOVE his accent. Not so much the eyebrows…
Any who…I like the Magic in Black, it looks glossy.
But I need a keyboard. I hate on screen keyboards, they just aren’t the same.
they already released the official update for development phones it will only be a few weeks before they make it for everyone if you dont want to wait then just root your phone
he was rushing through the whole unboxing..
