Talk:T-Mobile G2

Article Creation

I just created this article. It's my first outside of adding redirects. As TmoUSA just announced the g2 there is going to be confusion between this and the htc hero that was released in europe as the g2 touch. No specs have been announced but there is plenty of rumor on it already. I dont feel right adding that rumored info to the artical because 1) it will change quickly 2) its very sporadic.

Article name change/merge/redirect

Currently the phone is rumored to be a HTC phone but the exact model name is not known yet. I suggest as soon as the model is confirmed we should follow the format of the previous HTC phone articles and make an article called "HTC -insert model name here-" and have this redirect to it. See HTC Hero for the format im talking about. Laser123454321 (talk) 22:11, 20 August 2010 (UTC)

Rumor

I have no idea what to do about rumor. My instinct is not to add it so im only using what t-mobile has said officaly. There is some leaked photos that show a phone with t-mobile and HTC branding but the pictures dont have G2 anywhere on them so I don't know. Laser123454321 (talk) 22:11, 20 August 2010 (UTC)

HTC Vision

HTC's codename seem to be "Vision". As soon as it officially confirmed by HTC or T-Mobile we should move the page there. Same as T-Mobile G1 redirects to HTC Dream. FreewareLovers (talk) 01:08, 22 August 2010 (UTC)

I would agree with this as the only HTC phone that does not follow this is the MyTouch 3G Slide a.k.a. the HTC Espresso. The status quo seems to be whatever page or name gets released first. In most cases it has been the HTC model name known before the carrier specific marketing name. But I see no reason to not. However before we get into a merge war with a future vision article, I'm going ahead and setting up a redirect to this article that way the change will be easy.

Proposed to rewrite

The device is unknown because the official site only gives a preliminary announcement. The article may be insignificant. And please remove the TM symbols and add in the title of the reference to improve your writing style, don't direct copy the style of the advertisement-like website. On the other hand, I have alternated my Android template. You should type "G2" rather than "T-Mobile G2", the name of the manufacturer should be omitted. Please remember.

Evidences

There is no evidences that the G2 and HTC Vision is the same device. Citation needed on the specifications (QWERTY keyboard? Android 2.1? Hi-resolution? AMOLED?). The data from GSM Arena is not official. By the way, it doesn't spot that the G2 is equal to the Vision. --ZirconiumTwice (talk) 08:20, 22 August 2010 (UTC)

Connectivity

I'm adding back in the bands that i put in before hand. My justification for this is that these are the bands under which TmobileUSA operates in the US. See the T-Mobile USA article under the '"Radio Frequency Summary"' (for reference these are GSM 850 and 1900, although the HSPA+ operates not on these bands.)
