T-Mobile officially announced MyTouch 3G Slide will be available to buy from 2nd of June. In June, which has the potential to be a very delightful month of new mobile phones, there will also be available mobile phones as HTC Evo 4G, Palm Pixi Plus or iPhone 4G. MyTouch 3G Slide will be available worldwide starting 16th June. The smartphone will cost $179 with $50 rebate and contract, but it will not be able to compete with HTC Evo 4G, for example, which will cost just around $20 more, having also many other features.

MyTouch 3G Slide has a 3.4 HVGA inch display, runs Android 2.1, has Wi-Fi, GPS, 8 GB memory card in the box, 4-row qwerty keyboard and a 5MP autofocus camera. I really dislike the kind of qwerty the new MyTouch 3G Slide offers, because if I want a keyboard on my phone, then I definitely want it as on my computer. The top row is awful and that's another reason why I wouldn't buy this new device.

Lately, T-Mobile was putting lots of money into Android (so into MyTouch series), and the German provider is preparing a surprise for their users next month, on 19th June. "STAY TUNED - THIS WILL BE BIG" - says T-Mobile, and as we learned, capital letters mean excitement or happiness. Or both. We don't know what T-Mobile is planning, but they are preparing somethin, because they make a great deal out of this. Add 19th June to your calendar! Something "BIG" will happen then regarding MyTouch

If you've been waiting too long for the new MyTouch Slide 3G, then your waiting period is over today. The smartphone designed by HTC has been made available at T-Mobile for just $179.99 on a two-year deal and after a $50 mail-in rebate. Off-contract the device would cost around $430, but I doubt there is someone out there available to pay this amount of money for the new MySlide 3G.

The phone was unveiled on 4th May and started being available today in the United States. We have no idea when is the phone going to be available in Europe because there are not any given informations about it.

The device is powered up by a 600MHz Qualcomm processor, packs up 512 MB RAM and 512 MB ROM and has a 3.4" HVGA, 320x480 px display. It packs a 5.0MP camera with autofocus and LED flash, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, 512 MB flash memory and microSD slot (can support up to 32GB) and weighs 164.4 g.

After the Android 2.2, codenamed Froyo, was announced to come on many devices, including the new myTouch 3G Slide, many myTouch (original version) were left to wonder if they are going to taste from the latest version of the operating system. Well, according to an internal screenshot we know for sure T-Mobile wants to update the operating system for the original myTouch too.

The update will bring a modified version of the Faves Gallery, will introduce the Genius Button (as in the myTouch 3G Slide), will offer full exchange support and will bring the originator up to speed. T-Mobile, through their policy called "no phones left behind", want to assure every customer that can't upgrade to a newer phone that they will not be left behind and that they will get every update possible. There's no date of then Froyo will be available for the original myTouch, but if it's going to be the same date when the 3G Slide will get the update, then myTouch users will not have to wait too much for it.

Here's a short review of the T-Mobile's new device, myTouch 3G Slide, an upgrade of the original myTouch released some time ago. Some of the specs are slide out keyboard and a 5MP camera. The phone would cost $179 with contract at T-Mobile. The smartphone offers lots of social media connectiviry and works with Android 2.1. Unfortunately the device is a bit slow and a little big.

The MyModes features allow you to upgrade the look of the handset, but does it really matter while the phone has a bad plastic phone case. This is probably bringing you all your friends together, with Twitter and Facebook closer to you than ever. The myTouch 3G Slide is an entry-level phone which has a good quality. HTC worked closely with T-Mobile to create a unique Android experience for the user, and they seem to have managed it. MyTouch 3G Slide is the handset that proves it.

MyTouch 3G Slide runs Android 2.1, was released on 2nd June, is powered up by a 600MHz Qualcomm processor and packs up 512 MB ROM and 512 MB RAM. It has a 320x480 display (HVGA), is multi-touch capacitive and has ambient light sensors. The 5.0MP camera has autofocus and LED flash. If has Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, aGPS and weighs 164.5g.
