The T-Mobile G1 Phone is always being compared to the Apple iPhone 3G, but that is an unfair fight. Maybe the first Google Android powered phone should be compared to something that is more on a level with the handset, like the Samsung Behold.
The specs on both are impressive, but you can’t help but notice how much better looking the Behold is, but Samsung have a knack of designing nice looking phones. The Samsung has a 3-inch LCD color touch screen, 5 megapixel camera and camcorder with flash and auto-focus, included 1GB microSD Card and an HTML web browser. The Samsung Behold sounds impressive on paper.
The T-Mobile G1 has a slightly larger 3.2-inch TFT-LCD flat touch-sensitive screen; the camera is a lower 3.2-megapixel with auto-focus and only has a 192.0 MB built-in memory. Overall the hardware on the Samsung Behold is a much better handset, but it is the software on the T-Mobile G1 that’s makes it a good phone.
Which of the two do you think is a better handset?

Had the BEHOLD for 4 days using T-mobile. Even though I spoke with at least 4 people who oonfirmed that the behold would be able to check my Yahoo mail for the $10/mth internet package it cannot and will not (yet they signed me up for it).
Overall the phone is very slow.. I have a Blackberry Bold for work and the BEHOLD acts like it is 4 years old. No comparison in speed, funcitonality or user friendliness. I will be taking it back in a few day. Very dissapointing. Internet speed are much slower than ATT
