Earlier this week, Verizon had announced that it planned to sell off all of its 700 MHz A and B spectrum licenses to rationalize its spectrum holdings. Of course, this sell hinged on the FCC’s approval of its acquisition of AWS spectrum it had attained from a consortium of cable operators, that includes Comcast and…

Specs wise, the new BlackBerry sports a 2.44-inch QVGA screen, 2-megapixel camera, EDGE data, Wi-Fi, 512MB of RAM, microSD card slot, and a 1,450 mAh battery that is good to…
LG’s soon to be launched Optimus 4X HD will be available both in black and white, with the latter version being recently caught in the wild. As you can see from the image above, the new paint job makes the smartphone look even sexier, or at least some of us think so. Under the hood,…

JCB thinks there are people out there looking for tough Android smartphones.

Enter JCB Toughphone Pro-Smart, which is arguably the toughest and definitely one of the ugliest…
A new LG feature phone has been apparently caught at LG’s Vietnamese website — we don’t have the link, that’s why it’s “apparently.” From what we’ve understood, the LG Smart Cookie (model number T375) doesn’t run Android and rather relies on LG’s own feature phone OS to provide users with basic phone apps as well…
