Well it’s been coming for a very, very long time and now it’s finally, well, still coming. At least not it’s official: Amazon has announced its new Kindle Fire Android tablet for an amazing price of just $199 in the US (no solid details on pricing outside the US just yet), available for pre-order now or for purchase on the 15th of November in the US.
Samsung has decided to enter the touchscreen QWERTY keypad handset fight with the Samsung Galaxy Y Pro. Sporting a very familiar form-factor, the Galaxy Y Pro is aimed at both business and casual users who enjoy their touchscreen interfaces, but still love that BlackBerry-style design with a smaller screen and physical keypad.
Windows Phone 7.5 Mango is finally ready to get pushed to existing devices. If you’re living in the US then all you have to do is connect your handset to your computer and load the Zune client. You should be notified pretty quickly if the Mango update is ready to be installed on your phone.
Apple’s finally given the world an announcement date for its next iPhone launch event. On October 4th all rumours will be laid to rest and bloggers the world over can take a deep, relaxed breath once we finally get to clear up all the hearsay and find out the facts about the next iteration of iPhone.
Microsoft has apparently patented a modular Windows Phone device with interchangeable parts. The landscape slider phone will apparently boast the option to swap out the QWERTY keyboard for a gaming pad, battery or… well, anything else Microsoft can think of.
We’ve already told you about the HTC Bliss, which was the codename of HTC’s new “female-focused” handset that’s soon to be out. Well HTC’s started advertising it officially under the moniker of HTC Rhyme, which makes sense because it’s one the first products of HTC’s partnership with Beats.
The Samsung Galaxy S 2 is receiving a lot of attention right now, both from the media and from customers themselves. Quite rightfully so, the Galaxy S 2 is Samsung’s new flagship device and the rightful heir to the original Samsung Galaxy S throne. It’s currently the best-selling top-end Android device in the world but does it deserve to be? We take a look to see if the Galaxy S 2 really does live up to all the hype.
So it turns out that there’s some leaked info which hints that just maybe the iPhone 5 could possibly be seeing some potential stock shortages when it’s eventually released… supposedly. The folks over at TiPB have reported a rumor that Apple is experiencing some “design and production” issues with the iPhone 5.
There have been rumors circulating that Apple is preparing for a dual-phone launch around mid-October. Rather than just releasing the iPhone 5, many have been talking about the iPhone 4S. This mysterious device will apparently launch alongside the iPhone 5 as a new and improved version of the iPhone 4. The iPhone 4S is speculated to have an A5 dual-core processor and an 8MP camera.
We’ve barely even become accustomed to the HTC Sensation and now HTC is bringing us the HTC Sensation XE. This dual-core 1.5GHz badboy is basically a slightly upgraded version of the HTC Sensation that focuses predominantly on music by making good use of HTC’s deal with Beats Audio (commonly known as Dr Dre’s Beats among other titles).
Hundreds of cell phone plans unpacked. All the facts. No surprises.
