According to Techcrunch, the first Google Android phone, G1, was launched in the United States on Wednesday. Perhaps G1 is not particularly attractive in hardware design or software interface, but its applications are excellent.
Frequently used applications by users include Gmail, Web browser, or Google Maps, and MP3 can also be downloaded from Amazon. Most importantly, applications can be downloaded from the "Android Market" online application store. Accompanying the launch of G1, today Android Market will add 50 new applications, most of which are free.
The following are the top ten Android applications that you cannot miss:
1. imeem Mobile: Provides a large amount of copyright-protected music and free music radio, cumulative download mode ensures that users are not affected even in an elevator;
2. ShopSavvy: Turns the G1 phone into a barcode scanner. While scanning the product barcode, it searches for prices of this product across various stores online, so users don't have to worry about overspending;
