Now depending on what you enjoy more, tablet gaming or just using your phone, both of these are solid beasts that will more than help you get your gaming fix. Both come pre-loaded with Tegra Zone from nvidia on them as well to help you find those fancy Tegra 2 based games to play. We’ve had a chance to play with both over the course of the past few conferences this year that we’ve attended already and we’ve walked away more than excited for both of these devices.
There are some deals to be had already as well. Even though you can nab a G2X off the T-Mobile website for $199 on a 2-year contract, Wirefly is already offering the G2X for $149 right now with a new account. The G-Slate is currently priced at $529 on a 2-year contract but you can expect some deals to start appearing as well.
If you are on T-Mobile and looking to get a new phone or looking to switch to T-Mobile, these are two devices you’ll want to strongly consider when making your decision.
