HTC Car Upgrade Kit for HD2

The HTC HD2 official car kit is here. It's from HTC themselves and sold here by easydevices.co.uk. First up, I will mention the drawing on the box. I think it's supposed to show you that the car kit can mount on the dash or the windscreen, but they've …

HTC HD2 Extended Life Battery

Battery life. It's always a massive talking-point when you mention mobile phones. Come on, let's admit it, if we all had crappy old Nokia's with monochrome screens they'd last weeks without charging. Sure they would, but who wants to go back to a pho...

Laybag Leipzig

The Laybag is a tiny bean bag for your phone to rest on. It comes with a small "lip" to stop your phone slipping down and is useful as a temporary phone holder or a way to hold your phone at a viewable angle. It's ideal for watching …

Sony Ericsson Xperia X10

The X10 reviewed here is exclusive to Orange in white. The X10 is an Android powered handset and there'll be more from the X10 family in the shape of the Mini and Mini Pro. This, however, is the big daddy and has specs a-plenty. It's a quad-band GSM...

HTC Wildfire

The HTC Wildfire. Let me crack open a beer and tell you a story. We were invited down to London for a preview of the Wildfire and, unless I'm completely wrong, it was met with a fairly mute reception from the press. Why? Well, it has roughly the …

Nexus One

So what is it exactly that makes the Nexus One so special as an Android phone, well the obvious reason it it was made by HTC but totally how Google wanted it to be, no customisation, no branding, just a good solid well built phone for developers and …

Motorola FLIPOUT

Following our recent look at the X10 Mini we've now got another dinky Android device. This is the Motorola FLIPOUT. It's named FLIPOUT because the keyboard rotates down from the lower left corner of the screen. It's a 2.8" screen and, without the ...

Samsung Galaxy S

So with the Galaxy S only just going on sale I have been very lucky to be able to get hold of a device to review for the site and test it out in real world use.  This has been my only phone to use so had to …

Sony Ericsson X10 Mini

The Sony Ericsson Xperia X10 Mini is small. Now, before you click away in disgust at that opening sentence, let me just repeat that. It is small. There's no camera trickery going on here. This is the smallest phone I've ever tested. Get your cred...

Acer Stream Rewiew

The Acer Stream is available exclusively here in the UK on eXpansys. You won't currently see it on a contract or subsidised so you may have to think hard before giving away £399.99. The headline specs include HD video recording at 720p / 24 fram...

Orange San Francisco

The term "smartphone" has long been attached to the Android OS. It's meant that many have perhaps classed the device as a business tool or a high cost handset. Now, with Android appearing in a wider range of devices in various shapes and sizes, we're...

HTC Hero

I feel dirty in a way, and I'll tell you why. This is and always has been a Windows Mobile site. To be given a HTC Hero to play with for a couple of weeks? No.. we don't want it. Why? Because it's powered by Google Android - …

HTC Touch2

The Touch2 is one of the very latest Windows Mobile 6.5 devices. Scheduled to launch on October 6th this has a 528Mhz Qualcomm processor, 512MB ROM and 256MB RAM. The screen is a 2.8" TFT-LCD with QVGA resolution, which isn't quite as high as the hig...

o2 XDA Venn

The o2 XDA Venn actually appeared a couple of years ago in the USA as the Pantech Duo. It's an interesting idea - there's no touch screen but there are two keyboards - a sliding QWERTY out the side and a numeric keypad down the bottom. Specs Desp...

HTC Tattoo / Tattoo Ink

When HTC first asked me if I'd like a Tattoo I was a little confused. "Well, not really, I mean on women it can be kinda sexy but...", "No", they said, "The HTC Tattoo phone. Y'know, the new Android handset for the masses?" An interesting name it h...

HTC HD2 Review

The HD HD2. This phone has a lot of weight on it's shoulders. In recent years and months Windows Mobile has been badly knocked by the iPhone and Android. Both of these platforms have made serious inroads and many Windows Mobile customers have moved a...

HTC Hero Cradle

Above is the cradle itself - it's from easydevices.co.uk. It's made in China and, although probably not "official HTC merchandise" looks the business. In the box you get a UK mains charger with a small round plug at the other end, a small manual and...

Motorola DEXT / CLIQ

The Motorola Dext is currently available from Orange. It's the first ever QWERTY Android handset to cross our desk and initial impressions are good. It seems well build, although the sliding mechanism is perhaps less snappy than the sliding QWERTY HT...
