Good news for those of you who grabbed the HTC Sensation through Vodafone UK. The Big Red carrier has released a small firmware update for HTC’s baby to address several performance and stability issues. More precisely, the new software brings stability and performance updates, reduces heating in some scenarios by optimizing processor load, and improves…
Verizon Wireless’ Droid Incredible 2 is by no means a bad device. However, it’s also not the best thing you can buy these days, especially when we know that the Motorola Droid Bionic will be launched in the near future. Still, it’s a decent smartphone with pretty good specs that include a 4-inch WVGA touchscreen,…
HTC UK has just created a public event on Facebook (Jesus Christ, did we just write that?!) that will take place on the first of September, which coincidently is when IFA 2011, which bills itself as “the world’s largest trade show for consumer electronics and home appliances”, kicks off in Berlin. The event is titled…
With the back to school season shortly coming to a close, it’s the holiday shopping season that usually brings about the wireless industry’s most exciting devices. Case in point, there’s a rumored smartphone from HTC due to hit T-Mobile on October 26th codenamed “Ruby”. It’s going to be marketed as the “Amaze 4G”, and for…
We’re living in litigious times in the tech world: Apple is suing Samsung, Samsung is suing right back, and HTC and Apple are going back and forth, too. Let’s not forget everyone else thrown into the mix, or those looking to get into the fight, but it’d just cause our heads to spin. This time…
Earlier this month the roadmap for Verizon’s fall lineup was leaked and in it was a device called the HTC Vigor. Said device is supposed to be a replacement for the HTC Thunderbolt, which is rather odd since the Thunderbolt is barely 5 months old, so for it to reach end of life that fast…
Microsoft finished work on the next version of Windows Phone, dubbed Mango, a little over two weeks ago. Between now and the end of the end of this year you can expect to see a slew of smartphones running Mango hitting the market. We’ve seen one already, the Fujitsu Toshiba IS12T, but that’s not going…
About 14 hours ago we reported that Taiwanese handset vendor HTC was going to be announcing “major news today”. Thanks to AllThingsD, we now know what that is. Apparently HTC is going to sink $300 million into Beats Electronics, the same company that makes all that audio equipment with Dr. Dre branding, in an attempt…
We just got word that HTC will be making a “major announcement” tomorrow via teleconference at 8:30 a.m. Pacific Time and I’m being told that it will be “big” and “major” but that’s about all I know right now. HTC CEO Peter Chou will be making the announcement and it’s kind of odd to see…
With a little less than 5 months left until the start of 2012, we’re kind of sad to say that we’ve been duped, yet again, by analysts predicting that near field communication technology, or NFC, would take off and become mainstream. The first, and right now only, NFC enabled Android smartphone on the market is…
