We've heard a lot about "the Droid" and, until now, it's only meant the Motorola Droid. However, there's another Droid. It looks like there'll be an entire range and Verizon have just slipped out some details on their upcoming HTC Droid Eris. It looks...
I've learned through my many years of running this site that I do things best when I've had a drink, so - after a hugely long wait - I've had a beer and finally rigged the site so that you can go to "Next Page" or "Previous Page" …
The new Windows Mobile 6.5 Upgrade is now available to HTC Touch Diamond2 users. Download it directly from HTC (where someone has typed "Daimond2" by mistake) and get the very latest features now. Various languages are available and you'll benefit fro...
HTC HD2 news now (well, it's been at least a day since we last mentioned it), and mobiles.co.uk will be expecting stock "early next week". We're still hearing November 11th from others but apparently they'll be doing it for just £39.99 when you purch...
Sony Ericsson. They've been doing some Windows Mobile magic of late with the Xperia X2 and the original X1. There has, however, been an ever-rising pile of evidence pointing to a change of direction for Sony Ericsson. That direction? Android. Now Son...
We reviewed the Toshiba TG01 some time ago. With a hugely fast 1Ghz CPU and large 4.1" W-VGA screen it's selling here on the Orange network. The provided Windows Mobile 6.1 OS and lack of customization did concern us a little but we're now hearing tha...
Gah! Come on o2, this is like.. torture or something. The HTC HD2. We all know how good it is. Since the announcement we've been hunched over our laptops, furiously watching videos and drooling at the early reviews. Now it's taken another (tiny) step ...
HTC have today launched a new ad campaign, further promotion of the "uuumazin" HTC HD2 and a new look website. A new brand slogan, "HTC - quietly brilliant", has also been revealed and you can watch two of the new TV ads below. Both ads feature the An...
A few days ago I asked which direction we should be heading in. You guys are the backbone of Coolsmartphone, so it made sense to ask what the best way forward was. I've had bags of emails, Tweets, comments and forum posts on this and I want to …
The Motorola Droid. We know so far that it's a sliding QWERTY with 5 megapixel shooters, Android 2.0 (Eclair) and a capacitive screen. We also know that it's getting a lot of advertising and rumour has it that Vodafone will be bringing it to the UK. V...
Windows Mobile Twitter clients are unfortunately pretty thin on the ground. Twikini however, is a very good example of how things should be done. If you're lucky enough to have Windows Mobile 6.5 (or you've added it to 6.1) then you can hop into the M...
With so much news and expectation surrounding Windows Mobile 7 it's easy to forget the continuing improvements that seem ro be happening to Windows Mobile 6.5. Yet more shots have appeared, this time from istartedsomething.com, and they show a slightl...
OK people, I need your help with something. Since we started covering Android alongside our WinMo coverage things have got a bit cramped. I'm currently working on a switcher so you can flick between "Android" news or "WinMo" news but, to make things e...
If you can't beat them, join them. At least that's what seems to be happening with the opening of the Microsoft store in Scottsdale, Arizona. If we're honest it's a very familiar setup. White T-Shirts with logos on the back, funky video walls, laptops...
It's been at least a day or two since we ran our last story about the ooomazin' HTC HD2 so here's the current state of play. First we were told it'd arrive on October 12th, then we were told that it'd be October 19th. Now, two days later, …
The Android OS in the HTC Hero was 1.5. In the HTC Tattoo it's version 1.6. Here we get a look at version 2.0 - aka "Eclair". The screenshot-fest is available to drool over at boygeniusreport.com and includes a rumoured unified inbox, more multi-touch...
OK, so we know that Motorola are going "Android", right? The DEXT / CLIQ is out and available, plus the Droid is getting hyped up in the US with rumours of a release on Vodafone here in the Uk before Christmas. The mobile news website is now reporting...
We're just about to put our HTC Tattoo review online but, just to keep you on the edge of your seat, we have two more videos of the Tattoo. In the videos below I take a look at the on-board FM radio, camera, Google Maps, browser, albums and …
No, I've no idea why Orange have renamed the HTC Tattoo to the Tattoo Ink, but here it is anyway. The touch-screen phone runs Android 1.6 and is the first Android to have a 240x320 QVGA 2.8" screen. Now, whilst that screen isn't quite as hi-res as the...
We've been following the recent Microsoft adverts on TV. It's nice to see Windows Mobile / Windows Phones being advertised by Microsoft, even if we're a bit dubious about that "Twitter" logo running around - where's the on-board client for that? This ...
