HTC Magic+ / Expert Reviews

The second Android device coming from HTC is looking much better and the software improvements are more than welcome. Using it was a very nice experience, which means that HTC did a great job again. I strongly recommend the Magic to those that didn't have the chance to get the G1 last year. The last... More

Hey, this Android thing may take off after all!

After wowing virtually no one with the hacker's delight T-Mobile G1 (one of the most egregiously ugly phones ever to hit the market), T-Mobile and manufacturer HTC have spent nearly a year re-educating themselves about what a cell phone should look like... More

Like the T-Mobile G1 before it, the T-Mobile myTouch 3G is a very enjoyable phone to use. It offers better battery life than the G1, and comes in a much more attractive design. Some people might miss the G1's hardware keyboard, but many people will prefer the new model, with its slimmer profile and on-screen... More

Well, for starters the Android sure looks more human. The formidable and weapon-like G1/ HTC Dream needed every ounce of weight to stand its ground. With an honestly lighthearted and disarming approach, the HTC Magic is willing to play by the conventional touchscreen rules. And may as well be eyeing... More

We’ve been playing around with the HTC Dream since launch date to give this device a good go around.
The Magic feels like it’s meant to be held. It only weighs a measly 116 grams and comes packed with everything you could want (e-mail, contacts, web, camera, video and the Android market).... More

We like the Magic, maybe even love it a little bit, but we can't deny being disappointed at the parts of this phone that are missing. The Magic is perfect for young, hip, tech-savvy types for whom the lack of decent multimedia will be a major turn off, especially when compared with the iPhone's excellent... More

The HTC Magic is a great handset, and I thoroughly enjoyed using it. However, I can't help but think that the part I enjoyed was the Android UI, and not necessarily the handset itself. Sure, the trackball can be handy, but it isn't really necessary most of the time, as the Magic is a full touchscreen... More

Back in February HTC and Vodafone sprang a surprise in Barcelona with the launch of the HTC Magic, but TechRadar managed to get half an hour in the Spanish sun in the company of the latest handset everyone's talking about.
The first impression is one of weight, or lack thereof. The decision to strike... More

Packed full of cool, easy to use features, it's an entertainment and media powerhouse for those that live their life online. And it's exclusive to Vodafone - so you won't get your hands on its smooth curves anywhere else. Read on for our review of the Magic...

HTC has got a very smooth phone, which feels great on your hands and in your pants' pockets. While it's sightly thicker than the iPhone, the narrower, rounded body, and weight makes it feel the same size. For sure, a lot less bulky than the G1, which looks like a brick next to this. And as you have seen... More
