I've been obsessed with consumer technology for about as long as I can remember, be it video games, photography, or mobile devices. If you can plug it in, I have to own it. Preparing for the day when Android finally becomes self-aware and I get to welcome our new robot overlords.

  1. Eh, I think I’ll start sticking with the verge for my all things tech needs… these guys lag behind majorly.

    1. I said the same the other day. Might stick with AC, TB, and Google News once I break outta the habit of visiting Phandroid first.

    2. I took verge off my favorites and never looked back. Horrible layout and horribly biased articles. But I do agree with you in that Phandroid has a lot to change.

      It’s old dated look

      become no1 android site

      1. All new app = done

        All new site = soon :)

        1. Hope you know you guys are not even on my favorites, you’re on my bookmark bar hehe. (chrome) appreciate the news!

  2. Tmobile sucks wtf do they know?

    1. Perhaps they’ve seen the stories where Verizon’s network is having issues within the last year? LTE outages do hurt efficiency.

  3. I hope the galaxy s 3 does just as well!

  4. The TMO bashing VZW link is not working

  5. Perhaps something like “http://images.google/” ???

  6. TMo is letting people go right and left so they can “afford” to mimic the technology that VZW is perfecting for the rest of the mobile world, they really shouldn’t be bashing them. They have the cheaper price points, they should just rest on that laurel.
