Everything is going according to Smartphone Round Robin’s designs: While I’ve been learning the ways of the Android, Casey shows the iPhone is still strong in him.

I have to say that I love this Round Robin. There is a ton of valuable insight, as each phone has their own strengths and weaknesses.
November 18th, 2008 at 11:00 am
These are always the best reviews, you really get a good comparison of devices.
November 18th, 2008 at 11:06 am
I thought that win the G1 came out, I might regret my iPhone 3G decision, but I haven’t at all. I love my iPhone.
November 18th, 2008 at 11:37 am
I have to agree with Andrea. Android needs some more hardware, other than this.
November 18th, 2008 at 11:51 am
posting from my iPhone, and I still like the iPhone over the g1… I just can’t wait for flash to come to the iPhone.
November 18th, 2008 at 12:54 pm
I think that the G1 could be pretty amazing when the bugs are all worked out. I’m personally not a fan of the design of the phone itself, but Android is really sweet.
November 18th, 2008 at 12:57 pm
I feel like Android still has a ways to go. Not convinced about the hardware either.
November 18th, 2008 at 2:07 pm
The G1 isn’t that bad but still far away from the iphone.
November 18th, 2008 at 2:37 pm
Not at all impressed with the G1
November 18th, 2008 at 3:07 pm
I thought if anyone could unseat Apple as THE PHONE to have, I thought it would be google, but I just dont think its happening. It does not that the same **** look
November 18th, 2008 at 3:36 pm
I would pick the iPhone anyday
November 18th, 2008 at 4:05 pm
iPhone ftw
November 18th, 2008 at 4:27 pm
GO iPHONE!!
November 18th, 2008 at 4:34 pm
Nice review video, Android is really the only competittion out there for iPhone imo for what the OS does and what the iPhone does, but iPhone has the “looks” down, G1 is a sad looking device imo, bring more Android devices with better looks to them and Android may gain market share in the long run. I still can’t believe the G1 is a HTC device.
November 18th, 2008 at 4:53 pm
I would pick the Iphone over the G1, but the G1 is still a good device.
November 18th, 2008 at 7:11 pm
I left him a bunch of application recommendationa. You iPhone users should add any that you think really use the iPhone’s full potential (accelerometer, multi-touch, gps, etc…)
November 18th, 2008 at 9:53 pm
heh, looks like Casey really love the IPhone
November 18th, 2008 at 9:54 pm
The G1 still has an advantage over the iPhone: the hardware QWERTY. I gotta check out the SureClick on the blackberry storm (which is kind of a hybrid hardware/software keyboard, to be fair) but right now, hardware qwerty is the way to go.
November 18th, 2008 at 10:23 pm
pass a new iPhone my way please !!
November 18th, 2008 at 10:24 pm
Android is still a work in progress. I’ll stick with iPhone for now. Thanks for the review!
November 18th, 2008 at 10:53 pm
iPhone or Bold still a good toss up, but Android has a nice spot in third for now. Android looks good with the flash 10 coming out.
November 18th, 2008 at 11:38 pm
lovvvvvvveeee the iphone. i want one
November 19th, 2008 at 8:08 am
I love it and have to agree there is no comparison. Great review. The matt finish alone makes it a dull phone.
November 19th, 2008 at 9:34 am
I’ve got to get a new phone in Jan so I’m anxious to see who comes out on top!
November 19th, 2008 at 10:45 am
I’ve really been torn on if I should get an iPhone, G1, or BB Storm. Although I’m sure I can’t go wrong with any of these fine options, this video has me convinced it’s pretty hard to beat the iPhone!
November 19th, 2008 at 9:16 pm
please I need to win this.
November 20th, 2008 at 12:29 am
iPhone definately has its perks and sleekness.
November 20th, 2008 at 6:20 pm

November 23rd, 2008 at 3:02 pm
man ive posted every single post, every single day i gotta win
November 24th, 2008 at 11:54 am
The YouTube frame above settles the dispute by itself. The iPhone is much more attractive. The chin on the G1 detracts from it’s appearance. It should be interesting to see what other type of designs utilize Android – anything has to be better than the G1.
November 24th, 2008 at 4:33 pm
Pleasse give it to me.
November 25th, 2008 at 5:09 pm
The G1 is just a trimmed down Sidekick. Flipping open is just too old school. My friend has one and hates it. He loves my iPhone but is stuck with T-Mo for a while. Oh well.
November 25th, 2008 at 5:19 pm
Well it’s better than the voyager
November 25th, 2008 at 8:36 pm
I’m for the bigger screen and smaller phone. That’s way more high tech!
November 25th, 2008 at 8:37 pm
Click my name to see the real winner. It’s the Motorola i560. So **** and even has an antennae for a stronger signal. Amazing!
November 26th, 2008 at 10:20 pm

Iphone still kicks it’s but. Ue just jealous.
November 27th, 2008 at 5:58 pm

If I win I’ll be interneally greatfully
December 1st, 2008 at 5:23 pm
I need the jphone, jesusphone
December 1st, 2008 at 11:02 pm
I think that the G1 as a whole doesn’t feel together yet and that future iterations of this operating system and hardware combos will feel more robust, integrated and together.
December 2nd, 2008 at 8:04 pm
this phone is bbeeaauuttiiffuull!!
December 3rd, 2008 at 3:44 pm
To jphone
