The Android 2.2 Froyo T-Mobile G2x received two Editors' Choice Awards because of its powerful processor and simple "Vanilla" pure Google interface, allowing T-Mobile to roll out Android updates faster than carriers who bog down the update process with bloatware.
The update to Android 2.3 Gingerbread for the T-Mobile G2x should be released soon because there is video showing Android 2.3.3 running on it (see video at end of this article).
Viewers of the video see that the touchscreen is more sensitive. The lockscreen is easier to operate.
Features of Gingerbread include overall speed improvements, new copy/paste throughout, updated Google maps, backup of settings, improved voice commands, browser customization, quick links from browser, downloads manager, and battery usage features. Read our Gingerbread tips article.
The T-Mobile G2x is one of the few dual-core processor smartphones currently available. More will be launched in the summer. It appears in our list of the Top Best Android an' Droid Smartphones Now an' Later.
