Just because we’ve seen the HTC Desire HD before, doesn’t mean there’s less to love its brother from another mother, AT&T’s HTC Inspire 4G. The sexy handset packs HSPA+ data connectivity, 1GHz processor, 8 megapixel camera, and a price that’s unbeatable. Still, with the introduction of devices like the Motorola Atrix 4G, is this handset up…
We were hanging out at the GDC 2011 conference yesterday and got some more time with the Sony Ericsson Xperia Play and we got a bigger look at its gaming powers. The Xperia Play is the first PlayStation-certified smartphone and it will pack a slide-out dpad for gaming. The cool thing about it is that…
AT&T has been blocking the ability to download applications outside of the Android Market since day one. Since then, there have been a few ways to get around the blockade, for those Android users who want to install apps that they downloaded on their own. Today, we’re seeing a new sideloading workaround for the Motorola…
We’ve been expecting some sort of pricing for the T-Mobile G-Slate (Optimus Pad outside of the US), but MobileCityOnline has just posted the 3D-toting Honeycomb tablet with a $699 price tag. What’s more promising about the price of the G-Slate is that it looks like there have yet to be any subsidies applied to that $699…
Sony has just announced their latest creation in the field of camera sensors for mobile phones and this puppy is single handedly redefining what advanced technology is capable of achieving. When it comes to snapping stills, it’ll do 17.7 megapixels worth, which doesn’t really mean much these days since we all know more pixels don’t…
If you’re looking forward to the sexy Xperia Arc, then you may be interested in the smartphone’s first Android OS system dump, which has been spotted at the XDA Developers forum – think of a system dump as if your handset just vomited all its software code for you to use. If you can’t wait…
If you’re the new owner of a Motorola Xoom, and you want to get your hack on, we suggest you wait it out for a while. According to Motorola’s support forums, if you choose to root (hack) your Xoom, it will no longer be eligible for the free 4G LTE upgrade it has coming to…
Sounds like a joke, right? Well, the Android tablet benchmark wars have begun and this first round is between the Android 2.2 powered ViewSonic G-Tablet and the new Motorola Xoom Android 3.0 Honeycomb tablet. Both tablets share the same NVIDIA Tegra 2 processor, so does software version really make the difference? Read on to find…
We’ve seen a handful of rumored release dates, and then see those dates be pushed back. Now, a new print ad leak indicates that the HTC Thunderbolt, Verizon’s first 4G LTE phone, may cost you somewhere near $300 at launch. The Thunderbolt is no chump of a phone, but 3 bills is pretty expensive for…
It’s been a long time coming but the Android-powered HTC Merge is finally official and the CDMA world phone will be coming to “multiple carriers” later this year. The handset reminds me a bit of the EVO Shift, as it sports a large touchscreen and a full slide-out QWERTY keyboard. The HTC Merge does have…
