HTC Touch Diamond 2 review, video
As it is clear from the name, HTC Touch Diamond 2 is the next generation of a popular HTC Touch Diamond handset.
And it’s a pretty impressive update, with a new smoother TouchFlo 3D interface, more responsive touchscreen, 5 megapixel camera, bigger and better 3.2” WVGA (480×800 px) display.
For now HTC Touch [...]
Verizon Wireless Network Extender Review
Femtocells have been around for at least a couple years, but only now are they becoming mainstream. While femtocells are not necessarily a perfected technology yet, they are certainly convincing wireless carriers that the benefits far outweigh any negatives.
Verizon is one of those carriers that has been convinced. As such, the company with the most [...]
Samsung S8300 UltraTouch / Tocco review
Samsung UltraTouch S8300 (known as Samsung Ultra Tocco in U.K), is heading for the shops right about now, so I think it is a good time to give this handset a closer look.
Samsung Ultra Touch has quite an interesting mix within it – 8 megapixel camera, full touchscreen interface and physical T9 keypad.
It [...]
T-Mobile Samsung Memoir review
It is a time for rejoicing in North America as Samsung has officially kicked off the era of high-res cameraphones with the brand new Memoir, released on T-Mobile Feb 25, which features an 8 MP camera.
What does this mean for the mobile phone industry? Up until now, phones have featured sub-par cameras with okay quality.
Since [...]
AT&T Samsung Propel Review
The smartest thing AT&T could do this holiday season was launch a bunch of new phones to fill the gaping holes in its current lineup. In Exhibit A we find that AT&T had no text-centric phones besides smartphones, and it appears that this past month the lightbulb turned on over the company’s head, and it [...]
Nokia 7210 Supernova review
Part of Nokia’s 2008 fashionable line-up of phones, the Nokia 7210 Supernova is a slim candybar that became available in September, in two color versions: Vivid Blue (the one I’m reviewing) and Bubble Gum Pink.
Save for the yet unreleased Nokia 7100 Supernova, the 7210 is the cheapest Supernova phone to date and also [...]
Nokia 6650 for AT&T Review
The presence of Nokia on AT&T over the last year or so has been ho-hum. Lackluster performances from the 6555 and 6126 left a lot to be desired from one of the world’s leaders in handset sales. On AT&T, Nokia’s biggest success story in recent years was the N75, a Symbian S60-powered flip phone with [...]
AT&T LG Incite Review
Out of all the phones in the massive holiday lineup AT&T produced in November, the LG Incite has been the shyest. There was very little fanfare. Few rumors flew about its release beforehand, and when it did finally release there was no buzz about it. I found this to be quite interesting; a LG touchscreen [...]
AT&T Samsung Epix Review
The Samsung Epix was released at roughly the same time as all the other AT&T holiday offerings, so it was pretty easy to lose this particular smartphone in the crowd. And while in many ways it can be considered just another WinMo 6.1 device, it does bring some new stuff to AT&T.
This device is also [...]
Hands-on preview: Sony Ericsson G705
First uncovered in July and announced back in September, the Sony Ericsson G705 is a phone intended for the mid-end market.
It certainly looks good, and has some pretty nice features, but I’ll be the first to say that I find its familiar slider form factor quite boring. I find it hard to believe that [...]
