T-Mobile myTouch Q

“Both the T-Mobile myTouch Q and myTouch are for the budget oriented smartphone user, as they are under $80 with contract. Since the software and most of the internal hardware is practically identical between them, it comes down to wanting a physical QWERTY keyboard with a smaller TFT display on the myTouch Q, or a larger AMOLED display and thinner body on the myTouch. We’ll let you make that decision.”

“The LG myTouch Q almost gets everything right. On paper, it has the right feature set to appeal to those looking for a mid-range smartphone, and it has decent enough looks to pull it off. Sadly, it falls short. My only real complaint with the myTouch Q is the performance lag. The individual apps and services all work well in their own way, but the pervasively slow system performance wrecks everything. Every single app on the phone is gratingly slow to open, slow to respond, and freezes up too often for my tastes. If you don't care about a phone that's sluggish, the myTouch Q makes good phone calls, has a good, useful keyboard, takes good pictures and video, and doesn't cost all that much. If you're like me, however, and want everything to happen instantly, you might be better served by a device that has a stronger performance record.”
