When the Motorola Droid was released last year, it was the first Android phone that offered a legitimate alternative to the Apple iPhone. A lot has changed in the smartphone world since then and the Droid 2 for Verizon is facing a crowded field of superphones. Does the sequel build upon the original or is…

REVIEW: BlackBerry Style 9670 – RIM’s Next Flip
RIM’s first attempt at a flip BlackBerry wasn’t especially well-received. The Pearl Flip was commendable for being a significant departure in form factors for RIM at the time (even compared to the Storm), but the lower-end specs, reworked trackball layout, and prominent rear jut when open made for a fairly awkward phone. Recently, RIM and…
Review: Chu Chu Rocket for iPhone and iPad
A couple of weeks ago, I was invited by SEGA to check out a preview version of their upcoming game Chu Chu Rocket for both the iPhone & iPad. I wrote up a preview of the game right after the event and I thought the game looked and performed great for it originally being a…
Review: Age of Zombies for iPhone and iPad
If you’re a regular reader of IntoMobile and my game reviews, you’ll know that I’m a fan of twin-stick shooters. I’ve played my share of twin-stick shooters on both console & on the iPhone.

Hands-on: T-Mobile myTouch 4G with Android, HSPA+ [HD video]
We were able to get our hands on the T-Mobile myTouch 4G and this Android powerhouse will be able to go toe to toe with any of its competitors. The face is similar to the myTouch 3G Slide but the lack of a physical keyboard enables HTC to create a sexy and slim device. The…

At the moment, I have a few BlackBerry cases, a couple iPhone cases, and even an awesome yellow and black case for my iPod classic. To say the least, their products rock. That’s why, when the Vaja ivolution Top GT Case…
REVIEW: Verizon ZTE Salute – Return to Basics
The Verizon Salute, ZTE’s first mobile phone on a major US carrier, is an acceptable alternative to the smartphone world. It reminds me of my early college years before social networking apps, 3G speeds, and FaceTime. As a dedicated iPhone 4 user it was a rough transition, but I quickly grew to appreciate the Salute’s…
REVIEW: Windows Phone 7 – WP7 is sexy, but is it good enough to compete?
Windows Phone 7 is the latest mobile operating system to hit the scene and it’s hands-down the sexiest smartphone OS out there. WP7 is completely new. The UI is unlike anything you’ve seen elsewhere. Tile animations and transitions are smooth as silk. It’s obvious that Microsoft decided to put an emphasis on the design and…
