Breaking news, information, and analysis on the latest mobile phones and mobile technology
On the heels of our recent “Can Apple wow us again with the iPhone 5?” article, I decided to prepare a little chart (or that’s infographics?) to compare the iPhone 5 with its major competitors in the U.S. The competing devices (as far as I’m concerned) include Samsung Galaxy S II, HTC Evo 3D and…
The wait for the Motorola Droid Bionic is finally coming to an end, and Verizon’s first dual-core LTE phone will soon be upon us. The handset has garnered quite the following since we first saw it back in January and even the massive redesign didn’t seem to sway interest for the Bionic. Can the Bionic…
The iPhone 5 will be announced within a month or so and I started wondering whether Apple will be able to impress us… again. We think we know pretty much all of the features, leaving little space for a surprise. According to various rumors we’ve been hearing during the last couple of months, the iPhone…
I’ve been thinking about the prospects of Microsoft’s Windows Phone platform and how it can compete with Apple’s iOS and Google’s Android. There are no doubts in my mind the Redmond giant is seriously committed to drive its “mobile game” forward but thus far they failed to reach the tipping point. Sure developers know Microsoft…
Recently I ranted about the Asus Padfone and why I want one. Now it’s time to ask you, our dear readers, whether you also want such a device. Let’s face it – Asus has emerged as one of the most innovative Android tablet makers with their Eee Pad Transformer selling like hot cupcakes in December.…
When I moved to San Francisco from the east coast four years ago, one of the first things I did was switch to T-Mobile. The smartphone market wasn’t as booming as it is today but I had noticed that the handsets offered overseas were just better than the offerings than the US. There were a…
Lately I’ve been thinking a lot about the forthcoming Amazon’s tablet device. The online retailer will enter the super-competitive market and it must deliver an awesome product to differentiate its offering from the rest of the pack. That said here are some thoughts I had about the upcoming Kindle tablet (or that’s Kindle tablets)… It…
Again I’m continuing to rant about webOS. Presuming it won’t die out — and I think webOS is the only reason why HP bought Palm and they’ll do anything to make it a success — HP needs to do something about it to excite the market and the media about the platform. Android is taking…
Dear Google: Today started out like any other day. After opening my eyes and wiping the drool off the edge of my lips I reached for my iPhone and began what I call “the cycle”. First, open up “Sunrise Sunset Lite“, a neat little application that uses my current location to calculate when dawn and…
In my recent post on “QWERTY compromise” I figured out (obviously) I’m not the only one craving for a high-end smartphone with huge screen and full QWERTY keyboard. As a matter of fact, most commentators agreed though some said they don’t need the physical keyboard with Swype running on their phone. Point taken, but what…
