The HTC Magic is an all-touch-screen device with no physical keyboard. It has a 3.2-inch, 320-by-480 screen, with a track ball similar to the one on the G1, the first Android phone. The Magic runs on a 528-MHz Qualcomm processor, has 3G and Wi-Fi, and...

Superb and user-friendly interface.
No video calling support. Android App store still has limited apps compared to Apple’s App Store.

Last year, HTC released the first Android phone, the T-Mobile G1, but the second handset to run the OS is also an HTC product. Meet the Magic – a slimmer and QWERTY-less smart phone, running on the Android 1.5 Cupcake OS. It is currently offered in Eur...

In a nutshell, the HTC Magic offers a slimmer and smaller form factor than the G1 but lacks a QWERTY keyboard. Software wise, they are almost identical (once the G1 is updated to Android 1.5) and there isn’t anything too cool about the Magic. It is...

HTCs first Android phone, the Dream (or T-Mobile G1), was ostensibly pitched as an "iPhone killer" but was really an alternative to a legion of lookalike Windows Mobile phones. The Magic -- called the myTouch 3G in the US -- encroaches much more dire...

not great, battery life and call quality, Capacitive (fingerfriendly) touchscreen with trackball, Simple draganddrop media handling.
Poor camera quality and features.
When broken down into its individual components, there are a number of obvious nitpicks with the Magic and the T-Mobile myTouch 3G: a backwards approach to expansion, software thats missing features youre surprised is missing, and hardware that can a...

A dead heat! In the end, the winner will have to come down to a consumer’s personal choice. Those looking for a wealth of features that are more polished will be going home with the LG Arena. Those who need the usability of a phone with a better onscreen keyboard and easy access to search functions will be happier with the Magic.

We've seen the HTC Dream (otherwise known as the T-Mobile G1) in action just barely two months back when it was introduced to the Singapore market. Labeled as the first Google Android phone, the HTC Dream was a testbed of sorts for both the Taiwanese m...

So there you have it, the second Android device named the HTC Magic. True to its name, the Magic is the embodiment of a few things magical, such as the slew of updated features that came with the Cupcake firmware upgrade for the Android operating syste...

The second Google phone arrives: smarter looks, a neater shape and a better button layout. It uses the improved latest Android software (version 1.5, sweetly called Cupcake). Android is slick and effective, like the Magic’s impressive touchscreen. Musi...

This is an elegant, responsive and easy-to-use touchscreen phone. It’s not as stylish as the iPhone it’ll be measured against, but it’s still a looker and noticeably more pocketable. It lacks a headphone jack, a decent camera and most of the apps in th...
