PureMobile sent us in the GSM version of the HTC Hero, one of the most popular Android-based smartphones out there. There are already a number of in-depth reviews about this phone out there (here's one), but here's my own take on what I liked, and what I disliked.

I think you did a good job. Too many reviews today focus on the good parts and then give crazy good rating. A months later people realize the bad parts. (Good example from a few years back is GTA4, which got 98%+ nearly everywhere and now we know all the bad parts make it more like a 66% game.)
Mention the bad parts and give a realistic rating is good practice IMO.
Edit: I hope you will review an Android 2.0 high res/fast cpu device in the future/or a Maemo phone.
