When you bought that fancy Motorola Droid back in November 2009, how did you feel? It was pretty cutting-edge, right? According to its huge advertising campaign, there was finally a phone on the market that could reliably compete against the iPhone. Verizon customers had the latest and greatest Android device in their hands. But two…
Last week, LG was teasing us with a 3D Optimus phone launching at Mobile World Congress, which likely be this phone leaked recently. Though it’s not identified by name, it doesn’t look like any other LG Optimus phones out there. Details are scarce, but the tipster says the screen is bigger than 4 inches, has…
Just after Thanksgiving last year, it was announced that Samsung had sold one million Galaxy Tab units. It was impressive, if not shocking, but no one really questioned the validity of the claim and congratulated Samsung. It appeared as though Android tablets were more popular than expected, even if the software wasn’t primed for the…

Nokia’s Symbian platform, which has dominated the smartphone scene for as long as any of us can remember, has finally, for the first time in history, been outsold on a global basis by a competing operating system. Windows Phone 7 really is that good. All kidding aside, this is obviously the work of Android, Google’s…
Motorola and LG may have been the first mobile handset makers to announce dual core smartphones, and Samsung may have gotten our panties in a bunch by promising that they’ll announce a dual core successor to the Galaxy S, but when it comes to Android … no one tops HTC. They launched the very first…

Of all the carriers, it seems Kentucky-based regional operator Bluegrass Celullar will be among the first ones to get Moto’s hot all-touchscreen Android smartphone. We would think some major carrier group like Vodafone, T-Mobile, Orange or Telefonica…
File this under “rumors,” but it seems Telstra is looking to bring the Motorola Atrix to Australia.
