The coolest things for the coolest phones
One of the buzzwords around the major keynote speeches at the WMC this year has been how mobile software manufacturers are focusing on the ‘end-user experience’ and tailoring their designs to what they think consumers want.
Sony Ericsson has now gone one step further than that by launching an online service that aims to gather ideas [...]
HTC has only gone and finally quashed the pesky leaks once and for all by announcing two new Android handsets at the Mobile World Congress in Barcelona.
The Desire is the official name for the hotly-anticipated Bravo smartphone that’s been making waves on the Internet in recent weeks, and represents HTC’s top-of-the-range Android handset.
Packing in a [...]
Not content with offering a ‘pro’ version of the Xperia X10 Mini handset, Sony Ericsson has also announced a Pro offering of the HD-equipped Vivaz smartphone.
Much like the Mini Pro, the Vivaz Pro adds a slide-out QWERTY keyboard to its sibling’s design, adding a little amount of thickness and weight, but adding, well, a keyboard.
Strangely, [...]
In an scene reminiscent of the Davidoff’s cologne adverts, Samsung announced its first bada device; the Wave (aka S8500).
Surprisingly, considering the expectation that bada would be rolled out for mid-range phones, the Wave seems to be fairly impressive in terms of its tech specs.
It runs on a 1 GHz processor, and uses Samsung’s TouchWiz 3.0 [...]
Virgin phone subscribers have a nice little bonus coming their way on April 1st – free landline to mobile calls. There is just one catch – both mobile and landline have to be on Virgin tariffs.
BBC Click wheedled the info out of a Virgin PR person and told the world via Twitter. Although there was [...]
Okay, so we were expecting it – maybe not the name – but definitely some kind of tablet PC. Still the iPad is a fairly beasty-looking machine, too with a custom built 1Ghz processor, the ARM-based Apple A4, powering the 9.7” display.
Despite the grunt from the processor and the large multi-touch screen, Apple claim the [...]
To help ease the pain of commuters desperate for their daily news fix, the Metro newspaper has announced the launch of a free application on the App Store.
The app allows viewing of the current issue of Metro and Metro Herald as well as archived issues and content searches.
For the millions who read the paper on [...]
Sony Ericsson revealed two new handsets today: the catchily entitled SO-01B, known as the X10 outside of Japan (pictured), and the Vivaz.
They herald the start of Sony’s new HD range of handsets, allowing video capture at resolutions that don’t make everything look like it’s made from Lego.
Both models come with an 8.1 megapixel AF camera [...]
With much of the Internet working itself up into a froth at the possibility of an Apple iSlate announcement next week, it’s all Apple Apple Apple at the moment. Accordingly, Nokia may be feeling a bit left out.
But wait – what’s this? Big news, you say? A Nokia press conference THIS WEEK? Yeah, take that [...]
While the N900 might be swallowing up the lion’s share of attention in Nokia’s world, the company is also making a moderate amount of noise about another future addition to its line-up.
The 7230 is due out in March 2010 and on the surface appears to be a fairly standard effort: it’s got a sliding form [...]
