T-Mobile G2 Touch Overview

The T-Mobile G2 Touch is simply the HTC Hero with an identity crisis. Eager to follow in the footsteps of the G1 name, T-Mobile UK simply rebranded the HTC Hero as the T-Mobile G2 Touch. Interestingly enough, they initially officially tweeted that G1 Touch would be the name but that only lasted a few days before G2 Touch became the official name.


The G2 Touch is identical to the HTC Hero except for branding including its 5 megapixel camera, 3.2" inch capacitive display and 528MHz processor.

 As the handsets are so identical check out our HTC Hero Review for an honest and fair opinion on the G2 Touch.

The T-mobile G2 Touch is available now for you to purchase on contract , alternatively you can buy an HTC Hero sim-free and unlocked. What you waiting for? Go grab one!
