It's been a while now since the first phone to use Google's revolutionary Android Operating System, the T movable G1, was released and the conception seems to have gathered pace somewhat, with a host of new Android movable phones and smart phones now available. Here's brief describe of each of the past and current Android phones released so far.
T movable G1
The customary 'Google Phone' released after much hype in October 2008, the G1 was touted as the big threat to the established iPhone. It has to be said that the G1, manufactured by the Taiwanese movable specialists Htc, was something of a disappointment. The phone itself was bulky and the slide-out keyboard drew complaints for being unwieldy and impossible to use with just one hand.

The G1 did, however, consist of some innovations, most notably, the seamless integration of many of Google's notable applications such as search, maps and road view. And most people who reviewed the phone were impressed with the speed and reliability of the relationship made to the internet while they were out and about - this was, after all, a task which aimed to make the internet truly mobile?
Htc Magic
The world didn't have to wait long for some improvements to take place with the publish of the Htc Magic in April 2009. The slide-out keyboard was ditched in favor of an intuitive touch screen function, the much criticised camera was upgraded to 3.2 mega pixels and the handset itself was smaller, lighter and much more attractive.
The critics started to wonder whether, in fact, Google were on to something here?
Htc Hero
Just a few short weeks later and the Htc Hero, also known as the G2 Touch, came onto the shop and now people truly were taking notice. The Htc Hero is a sleek, modern seeing handset with all the usual features and some notable improvements.
The 3.2" display with touch-screen functionality is enchanting and responsive with an iPhone like 'pinch-to-zoom' feature and also displays beneficial weather updates as well as updates on all your popular twitter and Facebook feeds. 
The Hero also is the first phone to use Htc's innovative 'Sense' featuring seven individual, customized home screens which can be changed with the sweep of a finger.
Htc Tattoo
The newest offering from Htc is aimed, primarily, at the budget and pre-pay market. A slightly smaller and more covenant handset with a 2.8" screen and some trimming down in the feature department, the idea is clearly aimed at bringing Android to the masses and who would bet against it?
Motorola Dext
It's been a while since Motorola were associated with anyone that could be described as innovative but the Dext may well change a few perceptions of one of the customary and oldest movable handset manufacturers?
In addition to the Android operating system, Motorola have included their own application, known as 'MotoBlur' which checks Twitter, MySpace and Facebook for status updates and displays these on one of it's five home screens. Clearly aimed at the social network generation the Dext also re-introduces the slide-out Qwerty keyboard which is a lot more easy to use than the customary conception trialled in the G1. The Motorola also includes a nifty safety application which allows users to remotely wipe all personal data from the phone should it be lost or stolen.
Samsung Galaxy i7500
The first Android phone on the O2 network, as well as Samsung's first foray in this sector, the Galaxy i7500 features a 3.2" screen, 8Mb built in memory and a 5 mega pixel camera with integrated flash and auto-focus. Some of the Android features have been cut down but, overall, a potential smart phone that will truly be a hit?
The speed and pace of improvement of the Android task over the last twelve months has been phenomenal and there can be no doubting Google's commitment to be a major force in movable technology improvement in the future. Whether the Google phone conception will ever topple Apple's iPhone as the handset of choice remains to be seen, but given the expand so far it will be enchanting to see how the conception develops over the next few years.
