Right after you have your shiny new Verizon Droid you’ll want shiny Verizon Droid accessories to go with them, right? These things are obviously floating around somewhere and today is the first time we see them in the wild: It isn’t an ACTUAL Motorola Droid in those pictures… what you see is the case. Coulda [...]

Oh geez. Back in the year 1923 when Google first announced the Android Operating System pretty much everyone was confused with what it would BE, what it would MEAN and how it would be implemented and come to market. They hype conjured up a product called the “gPhone” which would be manufactured and marketed as [...]

A bunch of eReaders have come out in recent days and weeks but NONE of them were the rumored Barnes & Noble eReader until today when the company announced the Nook. Combine that with “eReader” or “eBook” and you have the problem of hearing someone say “Nookie Book” or “Nookie Reader”. But more importantly, the [...]

If you check out DroidDoes.com you’ll notice the weird countdown timer for the Motorola Droid with coded up numbers. Initially the code was said to be in the format of dd/hh/mm/ss. Well we just got sent the symbols decoded from an anonymous tipster who has proven the date has changed! Here is the actual code/key [...]

Remember the Motorola Calgary which we first told you about in April? It’s back and this time it came with pictures courtesy of BGR: Looks like the Motorola Calgary is an affordable version of the Motorola Droid with MOTO BLUR tacked on. Here is what we’ve got in terms of rumored specs: Touch-sensitive Android keys [...]

Have you loved Android from Day 1? Do you consider yourself a pretty darn good writer with a sense of humor/personality that Phandroid readers would enjoy? Have some time on your hands because hey – you’re just digging around the web for Android stuff anyway? We’re looking to add a few good members to join [...]

I’m not going to hide that we’re Android enthusiasts and while we try to be as objective as possible, we certainly take more of a liking to Android than, well… any other mobile platform in the history of the universe. That being said, we understand there is an approaching “problem” with Android regarding potential hardware [...]

While the HTC Tattoo is currently available at Vodafone UK amongst other places, we haven’t personally seen many in depth reviews of the device and seeing how its American availability is nunca, we haven’t gotten our own hands on the device. Fortunately, the Android bloggers at hdblog.it have come to the rescue and although they’re [...]

Acer has some lofty goals, don’t they? An internal volume estimate leaked from the company over at the ever-spotty DigiTimes and they’re claiming the company is hoping to push 500k handsets in 2009 and another 2 million in 2010. Obviously, this includes their recently announced Acer Liquid A1 Android Phone… but it also includes their [...]

Yesterday we showed you folks the Alex Android eReader and pretty much denounced its existence as a useful device – some of you agreed and some of you disagreed. It is a Kindle-like device but instead of just having one e-Ink screen it also adds a capacitive touchscreen and allows the two screens to interact. [...]

You could see this as a good thing or a bad thing, I guess it depends on your vantage point. We’ve already seen that Verizon has some sort of HTC Hero variant in the works and PhoneArena has word that AT&T will get the Hero in early 2010. Add that to Sprint’s currently available version [...]

If this leaked document is the real deal, you could be holding the Behold 2 on November 18th. A document that seems to be an internal promotional flyer shows the Samsung Behold 2 Android Phone and talks about its features, audience and of course – launch dates: STOP SQUINTING! Did you think I was going [...]

First things first: I have no clue what song this video features but I don’t want to know so don’t tell me. Far more important is the subject of the video itself – the Samsung Galaxy Lite i5700, also called Spica. The folks at ai.rs blog did/got a video review of the device and felt [...]

This may or may not become the Barnes & Noble eReader we’ve heard so much about, but Spring Design has just announced their dual screen E-book Reader they are calling “Alex”. Unfortunately I just don’t get it. I understand the separate advantages of each of these different screens and I’m obviously a tad bit bullish [...]

At the beginning of this year, Garmin and ASUS announced their smartphone partnership in hopes of catapulting themselves to the forefront of the booming smartphone market. But what better way to catapult any phone to new heights these days than loading it up with Android? None – and that is exactly what the joint venture [...]

You know the Sony Ericsson Xperia X3 that has been so fondly admired from afar? Name change. According to Tweakers.net (translated to English) a forum member with access to the phone and inside information from a Sony Ericsson employee says the phone will actually be called the Sony Ericsson Xperia X10 when it is launched [...]

If you’re perfectly down with plopping down the plastic, you can purchase the Motorola CLIQ starting TODAY if you buy it online. Technically its a “pre-order” but the phone will ship immediately after the order is submitted with retail stores not getting them until November 2nd. So if you want to be the cool kid [...]

If you’ve got a Sprint HTC Hero and are experiencing ridiculously pitiful battery life you are not alone – an extremely irritating flaw has been identified and the community has banded together to find a fix in hopes you don’t chuck your phone against a wall. An AndroidForums member known as flipz was first to [...]

Try as we may, we could not force Google to spit out the advertisement which confirms the Motorola Droid will begin selling November 6th. But there is a consolation prize: I load up Phandroid a couple seconds ago and who is advertising? None other than Verizon Wireless with an animated flash/video spot for the “Droid [...]

On a scale from 1 to Jealous, I’m an eleven. We already knew the Boy Genius had his hands on the Motorola Droid… now he has posted a Droid Picture Gallery and Hands-On impressions of the phone. With slick hardware, Android 2.0 and a frame thats only SLIGHTLY thicker than the iphone 3GS despite having [...]
