G1 News

Anyone who says that the G1 was anything less than a success for  T-Mobile is flat-out wrong! These stats go to show that people aren’t only flocking to it, but they’re making the most of the Android handset’s functionality:

• Approximately 80% of T-Mobile G1 users browse the web on a daily basis
• The majority of T-Mobile G1 owners use Facebook and Youtube at least once a day and access Wi-Fi on a daily basis
• On average, T-Mobile G1 customers have downloaded more than 40 applications from Android Market
• Four out of five G1 customers download applications at least once a week

Big usage statistics, and one in the eye for those who see it as just another handset. A huge indicator of smartphone success is online usage, and the G1 has people racking up those data charges, which the networks love to see. Expect a final software-based hurrah from the G1 before the avalanche of new Android machines due for release. T-Mobile have a history of doing right by the most loyal of hansdset users.
