Way back in February ZTE announced a line up of five Android devices to be released this year. We’re not sure whether to count the ZTE X850 as the second, however. With a 600MHz Qualcomm MSM7227 processor, 2.8-inch 320×240 resolution screen, and a 3.2MP camera, this thing may just be conjuring up memories of the [...]

Coming in on the low end of the Android spectrum, the ZTE Link was unveiled this morning in France, and our friends over at Android France had a chance to get hands on with the phone. Part of a line of Android-based phones for the European market announced back at Mobile World Conference in February. [...]

This past December Google published Google Goggles to Android Market. It didn’t create a HUGE stir, but the possibilities and potential implications of its practical use are certainly far reaching. Snap a picture of a place, thing, barcode, text or anything else and the seemingly magic Goggles will tell you at exactly what you’re looking! [...]

The Motorola Quench / Cliq XT that was announced at this year’s MWC will soon be available in Brazil via TIM. Currently, the Quench will be the first device without a physical keyboard to launch with MotoBlur. If you missed the specs the first time, the Quench is rockin:

The complete video is [...]

The most powerful Android Phone on the market and HTC Sense – a pretty killer combination – and the guys at GSMarena provide a quick 2-minute overview that is sure to leave you drooling:

They show the optical joystick being used to scroll home screens which seems a little odd given the huge touchscreen above but [...]

While 3G connectivity becomes the norm, techie consumers and carriers themselves have their eyes on 4G technology. Sprint already has WiMax 4G internet service in 27 markets, but taking that to mobile phone users – who are… mobile – is a different story. Sprint was rumored to be launching a WiMax 4G phone in late [...]

At the beginning of the month we saw the Alcatel OT-980 “slide in with Android” and when it was spotted at MWC the similarities to the Palm Pre were uncanny. It wasn’t the most exciting phone on the planet, but this entire range of form factor has been avoided by Android-making manufacturers thus far; now [...]

We recently told you Opera Mobile for Android will make an appearance at the MWC 2010 and TechCrunch has a video demonstrating Opera Mobile on the Nexus One in action. Check it out!

Looks awesome and sports a very nice UI, exactly what we’d expect from Opera. I didn’t notice and it wasn’t asked in the [...]

I appreciate that General Mobile decided to go a more refined route when naming their second Android handset. Their first was called the DSTL1 and it didn’t exactly “stick” – but the 2nd attempt does a little bit of piggybacking on another mobile-tech device by calling itself the Touch Stone.

The company had this on display [...]

Even some of the geekiest geeks can’t explain how the innards of your mobile phone circuitry combine, integrate and synergize to perform the tasks, run the apps, and play the games we so supremely love. But nevermind that – we all know math and love results and that’s all you need to know to appreciate [...]

When you’re dealing with a mobile device you want to fit in your pocket, “the more the merrier” isn’t the mantra when discussing screen sizes… or number of screens. But that doesn’t mean the 3-display Android prototype Texas Instruments had on display at MWC 2010 doesn’t open the door to other opportunities. With 2 screens [...]

Google Goggles, despite being a new and unpolished product with a limited application, is an awesome concept that will almost undoubtedly grow some legs in the near future. At MWC 2010 a Google Engineer shows one way that – RIGHT NOW – Google Goggles can make an impact with language/character recognition combined with translation of [...]

The HTC Legend frame is made out of a single piece of metal, hence the “unibody” label its gotten at MWC. This means no “seams” or “lines” that look like pieces of a puzzle coming together – just one, solid piece of artwork. Some are calling it the best looking phone at Mobile World Congress [...]

We’ve seen some really interesting Android phones discovered this week at the Mobile world Congress (MWC 2010) in Barcelona – oh how I wish I could be there…..  Well to pile on the good news, some ‘Top picks from this years event’ are already available for pre-order from none other than popular online UK e-retailer [...]

It would have been nice to be in Barcelona, Spain watching HTC announce the Legend and Desire with a front row seat looking at Peter Chou. But like the Rolling Stones say, “you can’t always get what you want,” but if you try, you can get the video on YouTube:

I was surprised how QUIET the [...]

When Sony Ericsson announced the Xperia X10 Mini and the Xperia X10 Mini Pro there wasn’t any word of price or carrier. Even today, no announcements have been made. But browsing the MWC showroom floor, the folks at Fonehome spotted the Sony Ericsson Xperia X10 Mini at the Vodafone booth!
With that tidbit of evidence it’s [...]

Alright Samsung Galaxy owners, be prepared to find the closest corner and begin weeping uncontrollably. Although the likes of the Samsung Moment, Sprint HTC Hero, Droid Eris and HTC Hero are all getting confirmed updates to Android 2.1, rumor has it that not only will the Samsung Galaxy NOT get a 2.1 upgrade… but they’ll [...]
