| SlashGear Huawei Honor review | 9th December 2011 |
| When Huawei sent over their new and soon to be released smartphone set to debut in Asia in Q4 called the Huawei Honor (U8860) also known as the Glory, I was expecting another run of the mill Android smartphone for the budget crowd like their previous devices. I couldn’t have been more wrong. The Honor offers a 1.4 GHz processor, Android 2.3.6 Gingerbread, an HDR capable 8 megapixel camera and a huge battery. I quickly realized this was a much better phone than I’d thought. Now that I’ve had some time with it here’s my thoughts. | |
| Pocket-lint ViewSonic V350 review | 9th December 2011 |
| The number of people with two phones in the UK is quite significant. When you factor in business users, drug dealers and people who are having affairs, it's probably a decent chunk of the market. Those people would all benefit from having a phone with two SIM cards slots. So enter the ViewSonic V350. It offers support for two 3G SIMs in one, normalish-sized handset. It runs Android 2.2 and so has access to a multitude of apps and access to a large and passionate community. But is it worth considering? | |
| CNET UK Orange San Francisco II review | 9th December 2011 |
| Not everyone is looking to spend half a grand on the latest smart phone. Many of you simply want a functional phone for a good price and spend all that saved cash on new scatter cushions or soap. If you are so inclined, the Orange San Francisco 2 won't break the bank and offers a decent screen with a simple interface. | |
| Pocket-lint Motorola Defy+ review | 8th December 2011 |
| So, you're looking for a rugged handset that can see you through the day-to-day struggle of your hectic life. In that case, you might be considering the Motorola Defy+. The follow up to, you guessed it, the Defy, the new handset offers a few improvements that should make it a better bet for people who need a rugged phone. The first handset came in for some criticism, because it wasn't quite as rugged as people thought it would be. But, has this updated model learnt from its older brother, or is it destined to make the same mistakes? | |
| GSMArena Samsung Galaxy W review | 8th December 2011 |
| The Galaxy S line gets all the attention, but troopers like the Samsung Galaxy W I8150 will see plenty of action too. With a 3.7\" screen, it's more compact than the original Galaxy S, but it uses the same souped-up chipset that ticks inside the S Plus. | |
| TechRadar Samsung Galaxy Y review | 8th December 2011 |
| Budget Android smartphones such as the Samsung Galaxy Y are an attractive proposition on paper. Who wouldn't want to spend less than £100 for a smashing PAYG Android mobile phone? | |
| TechDigest Motorola RAZR review | 7th December 2011 |
| Motorola's RAZR claims to be the world's thinnest smartphone. It's a claim that's only partly true; while at its thinnest point the phone measures a svelte 7.1mm, a concession has been made that sees a notable bulge sit on the back upper side of the handset allowing it to house the device's loudspeaker, camera sensor and flash. It's by no means an ugly bulge, and you could argue that with the slightly brushed surface of the RAZR's super-strong Kevlar backplate offers a better grip than other smartphones, but it does mean those \"thinnest\" descriptions must be taken with a pinch of salt. | |
| The Inquirer Motorola Defy+ review | 7th December 2011 |
| The Defy+ isn't exactly the best looking phone we've had in for review at The INQUIRER but its focus is on practicality instead of winning awards on the catwalk. The handset is quite plain looking but some exposed screws look quite cool if you like that sort of thing. | |
| Mobile Choice Motorola Xoom 2 review | 7th December 2011 |
| The hardware looks different but many of the features are directly carried over from the first Xoom, so there are fewer upgrades than might have been desired. The stand-out is MotoCast, which is a great music and video streaming service | |
| TechRadar Motorola Xoom 2 review | 7th December 2011 |
| Though there have been some internal changes, it's the outside where the difference is most notable. Motorola seems determined to take the iPad 2 head-on here, because the Xoom 2 has the same thin profile as the iPad 2 (both measure just 8.8mm thick), and at 599g is actually lighter a whole 2g lighter than Apple's tablet. | |
| Pocket-lint Motorola Xoom 2 review | 7th December 2011 |
| It's interesting timing that, having been the first out of the blocks with the original Honeycomb tablet, and having been the Google approved launch tablet, the original Motorola Xoom is now nearly a year old. The hardware has aged, the software has updated and Android tablets have evolved, slightly. It is in that little band of \"slightly\" that the Xoom 2 lies. Are there enough changes to make the Xoom 2 more appealing than the original? Certainly. But is there enough of a change to make this tablet more appealing than it's rivals from the likes of Asus or Samsung? | |
| Mobile Phone Features Samsung Galaxy Nexus review | 6th December 2011 |
| The Samsung Galaxy Nexus has a lot going for it. It is the first smartphone on the market to run the Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich. For those who aren’t familiar it is the fastest processor around meaning you get what you want on demand as fast as possible. The speed of the Galaxy Nexus does not stop there, the internet speeds available profess to be the fastest on the market, not faster than last year’s speeds, fast period! | |
| TechRadar Asus Eee Pad Transformer prime review | 6th December 2011 |
| The most important spec on the new Transformer is the Nvidia Tegra 3 processor. Everything amazing about the Prime tablet rests on this quad-core, 1.3GHz chip. HD videos play smoother (and longer, with up to 12 hours of battery use for video) than ever before. Games suddenly look fluid and dynamic, with water ripple effects, smoke, fog and explosions that mimic what you'd normally find in a PC game. | |

| The Register Motorola Xoom 2 review | 6th December 2011 |
| Motorola’s Xoom was the first Android 3.0 Honeycomb tablet to hit the shelves, and now little more than six months after its April 2011 debut, a second-generation machine called - you guessed it - the Xoom 2 is upon us. The new Xoom is available in two forms: one with a 10.1in screen, like its predecessor, and one with a 8.2in panel called the Media Edition. | |
| Mobile Choice Motorola Defy+ review | 6th December 2011 |
| A sleek but rugged looking phone that's marred somewhat by a couple of rubbery covers here and here. A grippy back feels great in the hand and the 3.7-inch screen fills the front of the phone, making it surprisingly compact | |
| The Register Samsung Galaxy Note review | 5th December 2011 |
| With Android tablets starting at seven inches and phones now reaching just under five, something was bound to come along to occupy what little middle ground remains and blur the distinction between phone and tablet irrecoverably. That something is the Galaxy Note. The Note is a fair bit taller and wider than your average mobile, but it’s not much thicker. In fact, it’s only seven-tenths of a millimetre thicker that an iPhone 4S. At 178g it's noticeably heavier than the Motorola Razr but it only gives away 14g to my HTC Desire HD. | |
| Mobile Choice Orange San Francisco II review | 2nd December 2011 |
| We don't think you'll find a better handset on pay-as-you-go for this price. After the original San Francisco swept up the awards last year, don't be surprised if its successor does the same. The San Fran II is well built and even better specced | |
| SlashGear Asus Transformer Prime review | 2nd December 2011 |
| Welcome to the next generation of Android tablets – where the year 2011 has been dominated utterly by the dual-core processor by the name of Tegra 2, so too does NVIDIA hold the next keys to the kingdom with the quad-core processor Tegra 3, and this is the city which you’ll love to explore: the ASUS Transformer Prime. What you’re going to get is a 10.1-inch tablet made with Gorilla Glass, radial spun Aluminum, a best-in-class Super IPS+ display, and an optional keyboard dock that brings you to the next generation of mobile: transforming devices. | |
| The Register HTC Sensation XE review | 1st December 2011 |
| HTC’s original Sensation hit the ground running in the spring, bringing with it a dual-core processor - the first time HTC had used one - and one of the firm's best ever cameras. This new version beefs up the processor and adds Beats Audio technology to improve the sound. All that makes for a big old slab of a phone: it's 126 x 65 x 11mm. The 1.5GHz dual-core processor is a step up from the first Sensation’s 1.2GHz chip, and it's backed by 768MB of Ram. This means the XE is very fast indeed, benchmarking higher than its predecessor and higher than almost any other dual-core phone I’ve tried. Only the Motorola Atrix and the new Samsung Galaxy Nexus are quicker. | |
