The Explorer is a fairly diddy device. It feels almost square in the hand and is a petite 102.8mm (about 4.05″) by 57.2mm (2.25″). The screen is 3.2″ but the resolution is only 320×480. I say “only” because I’m a techy geek at heart. To be honest that …

We’ve had a nudge from Best Mobile Contracts with news of the upcoming Xperia S. Now if I didn’t know better I’d say that they’re after free advertising, and for some reason they don’t want to send us free beer, but it all sounds pretty plausible so here …

First of all thanks to the guys from Mugen for sending us this battery to review. It came all the way from Hong Kong I was amazed. My experience of spare batteries for phones has basically been buying a replacement when the original started to misbehave. Within a few …
