G1 likes: - GPS and other sensors. - Physical keyboard. - Touch screen.
G1 dislikes: - The phone is painfully slow with Java due to interpreter-only processing: in tests 5 to 10 times slower for computational work than SonyEricsson Xperia X1 (same CPU as G1) and also 5 to 10 times slower than even my old Nokia 6680 (220 MHz ARM-9). - The phone is painfully slow with camera-based image processing; there is no API for decoding camera views, and this must be done pixel- by-pixel in Java (interpreter mode again). - Poor battery life. Probably also related to interpreter-only processing making that the CPU has to run many more cycles to perform any given computational task in Java. - The 16 MB heap limit for apps.
