ViewSonic has all sorts of goodies for us at Computex this time around, including new tablets galore. The company unveiled their 10-inch, dual-booting Windows 7/Android 2.2 ViewPad 10Pro along with their 7-inch, dual-core ViewPad 7x with Honeycomb. Actually, dual-boot might be the wrong term for the ViewPad 10Pro. The 1.5GHz Intel Oak Trail tablet actually [...]

Over the weekend we only expected the Motorola DROID X to start receiving Gingerbread in small doses, but reports have come in from at least a few Droid Pro owners with evidence that an Android 2.3.3 update is headed to the BlackBerry-esque phone as well. Whether the update comes as part of a wider rollout [...]

Sprint’s latest edition of their Playbook magazine for employees is shedding new light on when we might see the HTC EVO 3D. Though rumors had placed the device at the beginning of June, it is looking more likely that the handset will launch during the fourth week of the month. Still, no firm date is [...]

As competitors like ARM and NVIDIA aim for the smartphone sweet spot, Intel is still aggressively protecting their traditional PC market share. They see huge opportunities in the mobile realm but at Computex the company announced a more directly related product line: Ultrabooks. The company trademarked the name and expects a huge percentage of the notebook [...]

You might not even remember that the Sony Ericsson Xperia X10 ever launched on AT&T, and a big reason why is that the phone hit the scene pretty late sporting a rather outdated version of Android. Today, the X10 can be upgraded to something a bit newer as the Android 2.1 update has been made [...]

It’s no guarantee, but the appearance of the Motorola DROID 3 in Verizon’s device management system could be an indicator that the handset will be launching soon. We have heard rumors of a June release, so the appearance of the Droid 3 in Verizon’s computers lines up nicely with that launch window. Other than hinting [...]

It has taken PopCap long enough, but their library of quality games is finally starting to make its way over to Android. The latest to become available is one of their most popular games to date, Plants vs. Zombies, which is now downloadable from the Amazon Appstore. Normally priced at $2.99, the game is being [...]

Our time with the Asus Eee Pad Slider stretches all the way back to its unveiling at CES in January of this year, but it was once again on hand at Computex where our pal Charbax caught up with the slate. The tablet remains the same with its slide-out keyboard, but Asus has made good [...]

Is it a pad or is it a phone? That’s the question Asus has been teasing us with, and, while they managed to keep some elements a secret, we saw the new ASUS Padfone coming from a mile away. Still, the new device with its phone-in-pad design made its debut at Computex 2011. After a [...]

Computex is in full swing, and the Android gadgets are out in force. As you might expect, tablets continue to be one of the biggest trends at trade shows near and far, and we had the pleasure of going hands-on with the new Asus Memo, the self-proclaimed world’s first 7-inch Honeycomb tablet. While we have [...]

A good portion of the world (North America) has yet to receive the Galaxy S II and we’re already hearing about a Galaxy S III. JK Shin, head of Samsung Mobile, has mentioned to the Wall Street Journal that they’re aiming to release the next generation flagship in the first half of 2012. We don’t [...]

More Honeycomb apps, you say? Why, of course! Evernote, who received honors of being Phandroid’s highest-ranked note taking application, has gotten a tablet version and is now in public beta. While the phone-specific application was still great on tablets, we always appreciate developers taking the time and effort to further refine the user experience and [...]

This probably seems small, but one of the biggest annoyances I had with the web version of the Android market is how frustrating it was to navigate screenshots. Previously, if you opened a screenshot you had to close it before you opened another one. And you couldn’t just click away from the screenshot to close [...]

NVIDIA’s still hammering away at Kal-El and the result of all their work on it seems to be turning out great. Their latest demo is one called Glowball. It shows off the power that Kal-El can give developers who need realistic and dynamic lighting engines. And more than that, it showed off the chipset’s ability [...]

We’ve already known a new Nexus phone was coming – that much was confirmed by Andy Rubin, the father of Android. What we didn’t know, however, was who would be making it, what it’d look like, and what kind of specs it would be rocking. The device pictured here is said to be manufactured by [...]

Arguably, but not really, the most popular emulators on the Android Market have been yanked by Google. The *oid line, developed by Yongzh, seems to have finally rubbed Google, or some console developers the wrong way. Engadget has noted that Mr. Zhang has moved his line of emulators to the SlideME store where they will [...]

Four days ago Apple got a court order to smell what the Samsung is cooking. And now it would seem that Samsung is looking to play a game of “You show me yours, I’ll show you mine”. With this request, Samsung is looking to catch a glimpse of the yet to be announced “iPhone 4S”, [...]

When Motorola issued the 4.1.83 update for the Atrix 4G on AT&T, the devices ability to properly communicate with the mobile apps and websites of several financial services broke. Never fear, Moto is pushing forth a small update to remedy the problem as we speak. You’ll need to grab the Atrix Certificate Updater from the [...]

Amazon may have slashed prices on their selection of 4G smartphones for the holiday weekend, but they aren’t done yet. On Monday, the same selection of phones will drop to the sweet price of free when purchased alongside a new two-year contract. Phones included in the free-for-all Memorial Day sale include the HTC Thunderbolt, Nexus [...]

It was only last night we found the teaser pic for the mysterious new tablet/phone from Asus and I immediately dismissed the device as the Eee Pad MeMO but could I have been wrong? (Gasp) Well, we didn’t have much to go on, just assumptions and speculation but now it appears we have a name. [...]
