First Look Reviews: Toshiba TG01 Touchscreen Mobile Phone

First look at the Toshiba TG-01 touchscreen handset! It’s not in shops until summer but megawhat.tv went along to the launch event to get our hands on this potential iPhone rival first and see what it’s swish 3D GUI and 1Ghz processor was like.

A nostalgic look back at the mid-1980s, when shoulder pads were big, hair was even bigger, and a mobile telephone had the dimensions of a large brick.

    @liemnlime89 Ok that’s a fair point and I will not argue with your comment. Based on my personal tastes I use 167 apps and these are not games but yes the greater number from the 200’000+ are just crap but can be fun for a short while. It’s about entertainment as we are all animals and love playing with toys. But seriously if you enjoy your product and it fits your pocket good on you, use it.

    @Thermoman69691 Not everything that’s considered “out dated” is useless (inferred from you calling it a “pile of junk”) you know. If it works and the people don’t find any problems with it, then it’s good to go. Last I checked, every phone I’ve com across fits into my pocket, including phones that have a 4+ inch screen size. Of the 200,000 apps how many are of actual use? Only about 80 (based on my research). Not dissing the iPhone or any other phone. If you know how to use something, use it.

  4. Thermoman69691 says:

    Geee’z are they still selling this out dated pile of junk????
    iPhone4 thinner faster 200’000+ Apps better screen and it can fit in your pocket! TG01 is now free on all 24month contracts and they still can’t get rid of them. Phones running windows just don’t work do it. If you really want to defend the TG01 “I’m listening”

  11. Lewisdennis666 says:

    @fatriff win!!!! may i aldo add 256 MB RAM, 512 MB ROM

  12. geezezy says:

    the iphone is an overpriced novelty phone man. smartphones are the real phones, R
    The tg01 is a real beast, but bad ui at the moment. This is possibly in the same class as the hd2.

  13. vorjay says:

    Oh a GHz war? Who cares about speed look at the actually functionality you get.

  14. theevilvampireking says:

    toshiba is just getting into the mobile busniess like acer they still need time 2 improve

  15. Thermoman69691 says:

    What you on about?

  16. parillo400 says:

    those are brands jackass….

  17. safaaaari says:

    ths is probz a could phone bt me as a phone dealer for abt 8 years can onli say tht at ths very moment of time mobiles such as a iphone r needed to enjoy multimedia and the rest such as web browsing even the palm pre is better thn ths bt fatriff i think has brought a toshiba so he is deciding to defend it wen he even knws its shit

  18. bubuhh76 says:

    Have you ever watched a movi, browse the internet and shoot a video at the same time what bullshit!! you do it step by step. and yes the iphone is the best mobile device for everything you want to do!

  19. Thermoman69691 says:

    I shall tell what a iPhone has “a big fucking cock!” women love it! iPhone out sells any other pussy of a phone out there and nothing can match the apps so eat your 1ghz and oversized pile of junk and reply to comments that are not over 2months old as I have long forgotten what a TG01 was again! Did you really buy a TG01? HTC or Blackberry kicks the TG01 out of history “YOU FOOL” iPhone is cool way to cool for you FOOL

  20. fatriff says:

    2 things.. 1GHZ processor, and 800 X 480 resolution screen.. what’s the iphone got again?

  21. fatriff says:

    iphone is for non-technical users like yourself.. like a bicycle with stabilisers.

  22. fatriff says:

    iphone is a bullshit phone, with a winmob phone you can have 20 applications all running at the same timead switch between them, you can browse, IM and shoot video and watch a movie all at the same time.

  23. fatriff says:

    Typical noob who isn’t capable of doing anything technical.

  24. lastpoint94costy says:

  30. Godzie1 says:

    @ebabyerin Foolish waste of money for a piece of metal you can say hello on? At 10 you should still have a toy phone. ($2.00 @ Walmart)

  31. clydelaz says:

    @GSmokeZ031 – We are making fun of these phone mostly because of their size. Phones are not going to get any smaller than the Iphone or they will be unuseable.

  32. Jaoric says:

    …my uncle had a phone that came complete with a suitcase. you literally had to carry the damn thing on your shoulder!

  33. khoadog says:

  47. tseay29 says:
