Can you believe the Motorola DROID is over three-years old? Since its introduction, we have seen four versions of the handset. Each one has been improvement over the previous model and the Droid 4 is no exception. The Droid 4 is the first to rock 4G LTE and the first with a laser-etched, 5-row keyboard. Under the hood, the handset sings along with a 1.2 GHz dual-core processor, 1 GB of RAM, and 16 GB of internal storage. There’s also an 8-megapixel, rear, HD camera, a front-facing camera for video … Read more
Roughly a week ago we told you about Best Buy’s offer that includes giving away a $50 gift card with every smartphone purchase. Well, if Best Buy can do it – so can Walmart. The retail giant is running a similar scheme across its stores, offering its own $50 gift card with the purchase of “select” smartphones. Two keywords here are “stores” and “select.” First, you should know that this deal is available only offline and you can’t get it from the comfort of your sofa. You’ll have to actually … Read more
That sexy lookin’ white Nokia Lumia 800 is now available for pre-ordering in the UK. The retailer offering it is MobileFun, which lists the device for whopping 429.95 GBP, which translates into $681. Now we know Europeans are used to paying more for unlocked devices (when compared to the U.S.), but that’s still a lot for a device that comes with a single-core processor. Yeah, I know it’s not all about the specs, but the built-in hardware does come with a cost. And when you think about it – the … Read more
We’ve already told you about Asus’ sweet problems as it tries extra hard to fulfill all pre-orders. Apparently, they’re still struggling to meet the demand and have issued the following statement to address the customers’ concerns: Just to keep you all up to date on stock of the Eee Pad Transformer Prime – It is still landing weekly and in increasing numbers. The majority of our resellers have now fulfilled their back orders so more free stock should be available soon. Please check with your preferred reseller as to how … Read more
Samsung is using Valentine’s Day to share some love, offering a number of apps and games for free to its bada and Android users. At the same time, the Korean company wants to promote its own app store, Samsung Apps, since that’s the place you’ll have to visit in order to take advantage of this deal. The scheme lasts till February 21st and will also see many other apps (which are not free) offered with a discount. Additionally, heavy downloaders will be able to win a $5 app voucher in … Read more
Good news for our Canadian readers – soon (“early Q2″) you’ll be able to get the Samsung Galaxy S II HD. If you recall, we’re talking about an enhanced version of the original Galaxy S II which is offered by AT&T as Skyrocket HD. Specs wise, it comes with a bigger (when compared to the original Galaxy S II) 4.65-inch screen with a resolution of 1280×720 pixels, a la Galaxy Nexus. In addition, this bad boy rocks a 1.5GHz dual-core processor, LTE and Wi-Fi connectivity, 8-megapixel rear-facing camera, front-facing camera … Read more
Stupid carriers and their specific versions of popular devices. We always have to wait an extra week (best case scenario) or more to get the same update folks with unlocked smartphones or tablets got. Verizon’s Xoom is one of those devices that still waits to get the proper treatment. Sure, unlike the Wi-Fi only Xoom, it comes with LTE connectivity, but I can’t imagine that to be such a problem that it can’t run the Ice Cream Sandwich. Instead, the Big Red carrier will soon (not sure when exactly) launch … Read more
Sprint will soon launch the early upgrade buyout program that will be known as “Upgrade Now.” Set to run from 2/12/12 – 4/14/12, it will allow select Sprint customers to buy their way out of their contract in exchange for an early upgrade. Aside from the applicable Upgrade Now fee, the customer will also need to commit to a new two-year contract. Not all customers will be able to take advantage of this offer. Among those that are not eligible are customers that have upgraded less than 8 months ago, … Read more
If you’re going to upgrade to a new phone on AT&T for Valentine’s day, you better do it quickly because the carrier will be doubling its upgrade fee to $36 starting Feb. 12. In a message to Engadget, AT&T said: Wireless devices today are more sophisticated than ever before. And because of that, the costs associated with upgrading to a new device have increased and is reflected in our new upgrade fee. This fee isn’t unique to AT&T and this is the first time we’re changing it in nearly 10 … Read more
With Mobile World Congress just around the corner and Samsung holding off on the Galaxy S III, the table is set for a company like HTC to “win” the show. Rumors suggest that it will introduce a monster handset called the “Endeavour” and this could signal a massive change for HTC smartphones. This doesn’t appear to be the HTC Ville that has been leaked multiple times, as Android Modaco reports that the HTC Endeavour will pack a massive 4.7-inch screen with a 720p HD resolution, will run Android Ice Cream … Read more
Details of a new low-end Samsung device leaked today and it looks like this new handset will be called the Galaxy mini 2. This successor to the Samsung Galaxy Mini S5570 has some subtle changes like a bigger 3.3-inch screen with higher resolution (HVGA), a faster 800MHz processor and 3GB of built-in storage. The mini 2 will also run some version of Android 2.3 Gingerbread. Other noteworthy specs of the mini 2 include a 3 megapixel camera and 7.2Mbps HSDPA connectivity, again, these are upgrades from the original. If you’re into the whole rounded corners … Read more
Verizon is bringing back its popular double data promotion, as users will be able to indulge in 4 GBs of data for $30 and a 10 GB plan for $50. The largest wireless provider in the United States also plans to offer bundles of data and mobile hotspot functionality, such as $50 a month for 6 GBs of data and $70 for 12 GBs of data. All of these data plans will accompany voice and text message plans. This is Big Red’s attempt to give first quarter sales a jolt, as this time of … Read more
Put on your rumor hats, folks, as we have a nice one for you today. Eldar Murtazin has once again tweeted the deets about Samsung’s plans and this time it’s concerning the Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich update for the Galaxy S II. According to Murtazin’s tweet, Galaxy S II users can expect to see the rollout of Ice Cream Sandwich on March 1st through Samsung Kies. This would definitely be quite a treat for users but we’re going to assume that if the update is available on March 1st, … Read more
The late Apple co-founder Steve Jobs was being considered for an appointment by President H.W. Bush and this required a stringent background check that has just become public. This 191-page FBI document reveals multiple details about Jobs including his drug use, “abrasive” nature and his ability to distort the truth to reach his goals. The file became public because Jobs passed away and much of it isn’t that surprising if you’ve really been following the charismatic Apple CEO. The FBI interviewed Jobs and multiple friends and colleagues and the one … Read more
