T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G will be out in March for $149.99
Last month T-Mobile decided to announce the Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G (following leaked information that said it was headed to the magenta carrier), but did so without saying much about the device, and without giving any hints about its price or release date. Here we are a month or so later, and T-Mobile has [...]
Huawei’s MediaPad available at AT&T today
It’s cheap tablet season in the USA, apparently. Yesterday Sprint officially announced the $99 ZTE Optik, and today it’s AT&T’s turn to start offering an affordable Android-powered tablet it seems, although it’s a different one. After having made its way to T-Mobile where it’s sold as the Springboard, the Huawei MediaPad (the world’s first tablet [...]
Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G may be headed to T-Mobile with 42 Mbps HSPA+ support
T-Mobile looks set to add another device to its already impressive Android-powered roster in the near future.

And it will probably [...]
Unlocked Samsung Galaxy Nexus now available in the US for $749.99
Are you still wondering when the Samsung Galaxy Nexus will make it to the US? Well, wonder no more, for it’s already available. No, this isn’t Verizon’s LTE-enabled version, unfortunately. That will be launched in December, according to Samsung. But if you aren’t on Verizon or don’t want to be, and if HSPA+ speeds are [...]
AT&T’s LG Optimus LTE will be called Nitro HD, image and details leak
Last month, LG first unveiled the Optimus LTE, its first smartphone to come with a 720p HD touchscreen. This superphone also comes with LTE connectivity, just like its name implies.

Odd, dual-touchscreen LG Doubleplay now available at T-Mobile for $99.99
Whatever you may think about Android phone makers, you simply can’t say they aren’t desperate to differentiate their offerings from the competition. Take the LG Doubleplay, for example. This is clearly an attempt to scream “hey, I’m different!” to the (un)discerning public. This phone was announced earlier this month and is set to become available [...]
AT&T Motorola Atrix 2 now available, already $50 cheaper at Amazon
AT&T’s Motorola Atrix 2 is now available to purchase. This, of course, is the successor to the original Atrix announced at the beginning of this year and launched afterwards by AT&T.

Just as expected, the Samsung Galaxy S II and the HTC Amaze 4G are now available to purchase from T-Moible.

Both the Galaxy S II and the Amaze 4G can use T-Mobile’s 42 Mbps HSPA network, [...]

LG Thrill 4G now officially available from AT&T for $100
AT&T announced in June that the LG Thrill 4G would be arriving this summer, but did not give an official release date. We didn’t hear much from AT&T until Monday when AT&T’s twitter account confirmed that the Thrill 4G would be available starting September 4th. Well, today happens to be September 4th, and AT&T has kept [...]

T-Mobile G-Slate Priced at $529.99 With Contract
So we were really, really hoping that the Motorola Xoom’s pricing scheme would be the exception for Honeycomb tablets rather than the rule. As we hear more information about T-Mobile’s answer, the G-Slate, we’re starting to realize that this may well be a standard for Honeycomb. T-Mobile dropped a few more pieces of information about [...]

AT&T Motorola Atrix 4G Hands-on at CES 2011
By a large margin, Motorola Mobility stole the show at CES 2011. Though several companies like LG, HTC and Samsung stepped up to the plate and delivered some great new handsets (and tablets), Motorola not only announced several new top-notch handsets but also a tablet in the Motorola Xoom that could quite possibly be the [...]
T-Mobile Dell Streak 7 Hands-on at CES 2011
You ought to admire Dell’s tenacity. Here we are, seeing the computer giant launch a new larger version of the tablet/smartphone hybrid Dell Streak we saw soft-launched on AT&T with rather paltry results. None of the ingredients seemed to work with the original 5-inch option, but with a little tweaking here and there Dell may [...]
