T-Mobile is teasing us with a page about its upcoming smartphone with full HSPA+ capabilities but the page’s code reveals more than T-Mobile may have wanted. The good folks at Tmonews said the code referred to the first HSPA+ device as the “Vanguard,” which has also been known as the HTC Vision or G1 Blaze.…
The Android-powered Dell Streak is tantalizingly close and the company is taking its message to YouTube to answer a few questions about software upgrades and carrier compatibility. The device features a 5-inch touchscreen with cellular capabilities. At that range, it’s kind of a tablet and kind of a smartphone – maybe a “smarblet?” The device…
HTC has announced four phones for China, some of which may seem familiar to those elsewhere in the world. The Wildfire, Desire, Tianxi (HD2), and Tianyi (looks like a Wildfire with a trackball) will all be coming to China Mobile under HTC’s name, nixing the Dopod brand HTC had traditionally used in the area. In…
Ashok Kumar, one of our favorite (warning warning, sarcasm meter about to explode) analysts here at IntoMobile, has another wacky prediction. My gut tells me to stop making fun of him though and believe what he has to say about his latest discovery. Kumar says that Motorola is planning on releasing an Android 3.0, code…
Orange has launched its own-branded Android smartphone in France. The all-touchscreen device is called the Tactile Internet and it’s pretty much the same phone, specs wise, as the HTC Tattoo.

All you heard was that jailbreaking and rooting your handset is now legal, so any feelings of guilt you might have had are probably all gone now. But if…
You’ve likely been sleeping under a rock if you hadn’t notice Android OS has been growing at a rapid pace. The Q2 numbers from the UK illustrate just this, showing the Google mobile OS growing around 350% from Q1. That’s impressive, no matter what the absolute numbers are. In just three months, Android has gone…
Whoa. The little-known Augen is bringing out a 7-inch Android tablet soon and a Kmart circular indicates it will only retail for $150. That is not a lot of money of what this Android tablet is going to pack, as the product page says the device, dubbed “GenTouch78,” will rock the 2.1 version of the…
If the video of CyanogenMod 6 bringing Android 2.2 Froyo to the Sprint HTC EVO 4G wasn’t enough for you, we’re happy to tell you that the first 4G phone now has its first CM6 release candidate from the most popular custom ROM maker in the Android space. The news should have Froyo fans with…
There are all kinds of reasons you’d want to hit up your local Verizon store and pick up a Motorola Droid X, but today we’re just going to focus on one of the lesser-mentioned camera features known as Panorama Assist. Its easy to see how a specs-sheet filled with mentions of a 4.3-inch display, GPS,…
