The parade of new Android Phones will soon continue. Although we don’t yet have details on the devices, ZTE just issued a press release announcing that in addition to launching the “ZTE Bingo” brew based phone, they’ll also unveil FIVE Android Phones at Mobile World Congress. Based on their verbage, it seems like the majority [...]

Acer’s announcement of the Liquid E was pretty disappointing so we’re happy that’s not ALL they had planned. Although we thought the beTouch/neoTouch lines were reserved for Windows Mobile we were wrong as the company has just announced the Acer beTouch E110 and Acer beTouch E400 running Android 1.5 and Android 2.1, respectively. It’s a [...]

Acer’s first Android phone was the Acer Liquid A1 and now they’re following up their line with the Acer Liquid E. The odd thing is this isn’t really a “follow up”… they pretty much just slapped Android 2.1 on the Acer A1 and called it a day. Here is the full press release: Acer Liquid [...]

It was just last night that Samsung accidentally let the Samsung i8520 leak through their own press release, somewhat spoiling the Samsung Wave announcement that was supposed to make a solo appearance/announcement. Later that night, Engadget got execs to cough up the admission – it would be announced the next day as the Samsung Halo. [...]

Since it announced its first Android Phone, the CLIQ, Motorola wasted no time becoming a dominant force in the Android World. Their presence at Mobile World Congress 2010 is proving they plan to continue that trend. The company announced the Motorola CLIQ XT in the United States, which will be called the Motorola QUENCH elsewhere [...]

Since the Motorola Droid launched we knew Adobe Flash was coming first quarter of 2010 and the lack of flash on mobile devices tends to be one point of contention/discussion/debate when comparing phones. Now Adobe is set to make an announcement that will help developers create flash-based games and apps that can be deployed on [...]

Your Android Phone is about to get 6.5 million killer tunes. A company called Omnifone is bringing their MusicStation service to Android and will launch at Mobile World Congress 2010 with a demonstration on the Nexus One. “Omnifone is delighted to be able to deliver the richest and most sophisticated music capability on mobile, and [...]

Mo’ devices, Mo’ problems. Mo’ OS versions, Mo’ problems. Mo’ Android, Mo’ problems. We knew when the first ever update for Android came along that OTA updates would be a sticking point for consumers – (I can haz cupcakes?). If you ask me, it’s gotten out of hand in many ways. At least one company [...]

We just told you about the super-slick looking and ultra powerful Samsung i8520… you know, the one with the projector, 8MP camera, and Super AMOLED screen. Well that phone just got a name… the Samsung Halo. This isn’t 100% official yet but you can’t get much closer to the truth than Engadget did: After quizzing [...]

The lucky Engadget travelers in Barcelona just got their mittens on the Xperia X10 Mini Pro – or at least stood next to an SE representative who gave them a quick guided tour. The idea of the X10 Mini and X10 Mini pro is that they’re designed for people who prefer one-handed use of a [...]

We just told you about the Mini and Mini Pro bombs that Sony Ericsson dropped on the Xperia X10 adn now we’re seeing some official promotional videos for the phones. Take a look and let us know what you think. First off, here is one for BOTH in the same video: They have two other [...]

Samsung thought their “big announcement” was all about their new Operating System – Bada – which they hope will turn today’s “feature” phones into “smartphones” by default. But we’re FAR more interested in a phone that they didn’t even mention – good things its specs slipped through in a Press Release and pictures followed soon [...]

Sony Ericsson just held a Press Conference at Mobile World Congress in Barcelona, Spain and announced TWO  new Android Phones: the Xperia X10 Mini and the Xperia X10 Mini Pro! Both devices follow the design footsteps of the Xperia X10 but are smaller and more pocketable, with the X10 Mini being touchscreen only and the [...]

We waited FOREVER for Garmin-Asus to release their first phone and when they did, no Android was in tact. But the company’s are finally fulfilling their promise by launching the Garmin Nuvifone A50 and MobileBurn got a hands on opportunity: Do you see the UI? That looks NOTHING like Android and is obviously heavily modified. [...]

The Mobile World Congress doesn’t officially start until tomorrow, but that hasn’t stopped some early Android attention from being waved around. Take the Compaq Airlife 100 for instance – an Android Smartbook manufactured by HP with a data plan partnership through Telefonica. That desktop/homescreen looks more attractive than the majority of other Android netbook/smartbooks we’ve [...]

Traditional mobile carriers and VoIP services haven’t really mixed in the past. Verizon Wireless, until their adoption of Android, had been considered one of the most “closed” carriers on the planet. Google Voice was a ray of hope that still hasn’t caught on with the masses but wait… what do we have here? Verizon and [...]

A member of XDA Devs (Football) has posted a new Nexus One ROM called “Passion_Google_WWE_1.07.1700.1” that should of course include the “enter at your own risk” disclosure. While he didn’t provide a change log, members are already reporting that the new build has yet another radio, suggesting the updated version could be an attempt (again) [...]

Nokia isn’t going to be at the Mobile World Congress this year… same place that Google CEO Eric Schmidt is giving a keynote speech. I doubt they’re opting out for the reasons too-cool-for-school Apple doesn’t attend, it’s more likely they just don’t have anything good to share. Oh wait, yeah they do! A Reuters article [...]

Typically when you talk about going bigger, badder and faster you’re also talking about draining substantial battery life. Just the opposite in the case of the Dalvik Turbo virtual machine which was announced yesterday by OHA member Myriad Group AG: Dalvik Turbo increases application execution speed by up to three times ‐ allowing OEMs and [...]

It wasn’t long ago we were talking about Motorola selling their handset division or maybe even just burning it and scattering the ashes since everyone had negative things to say about it. Well rather than get blown into billions of bits, Motorola is getting chopped in half, with mobile handset business and TV set-top box [...]
