Mobile Choice Asus Eee Pad Slider review18th November 2011
An outstanding tablet that seemlessly blends touch-screen fun and netbook functionality with a superbly responsive keyboard and elegant build
GSMArena Sony Ericsson XPERIA Pro review18th November 2011
The Pro adds a physical QWERTY keyboard to the best Sony Ericsson have to offer today. That includes a LED-backlit Reality display with Sony Mobile BRAVIA Engine, an 8 megapixel ExmorR camera sensor, 720p video with continuous autofocus, and the latest Android 2.3.4.
TechRadar Amazon Kindle Fire review18th November 2011
The Amazon Kindle Fire is what the tech world likes to coin a game-changer. A gadget with the potential to irrevocably alter a sector of the market to the point of no return. A fully-fledged Android tablet with a top-level ecosystem of multimedia content for less than half the price of its competitors isn't just changing the game, it's changing the entire sport.
Pocket-lint Amazon Kindle Fire review18th November 2011
Is it a jumped-up e-reader, a cut-price iPad or nothing more than a portable shop window for Amazon’s endless shelves? The Kindle Fire blunders into the tablet wars with something to annoy everyone: an LCD screen to irritate E Ink fans; a GPS-less, camera-less, Bluetooth-less spec to infuriate the techies; and a closed, corporate retail interface that makes a mockery of Android’s open source roots.
TechRadar Sony Ericsson XPERIA Active review17th November 2011
The Xperia Active sits somewhere at the lower end of that lot. You get a 3-inch capacitive Bravia Engine touchscreen running at 320 x 480 resolution, along with a 5 megapixel camera with LED flash and the ability to record video at 720p resolution, all stuffed in a dust and water-resistant case - plus a few health apps pre-loaded. And there's a stretchy armband in the box for wearing it at the gym, or just keeping it safe.
SlashGear Samsung Galaxy Nexus review17th November 2011
Could the Galaxy Nexus be the most anticipated Android phone of the holiday season? It certainly has some strong competition, with the DROID RAZR and HTC Rezound doing their level best to muscle into the market ahead of the first Ice Cream Sandwich phone’s arrival. Still, Samsung’s smartphone – and the third device to wear the official Nexus branding – has plenty to differentiate it, not just Android 4.0.
Pocket-lint Archos 101 G9 review17th November 2011
Android tablets are something of a minefield. The unique proposition of the Archos tablet is that it delivers the Honeycomb experience at a price that's hard to beat. It also, undoubtedly, offers the widest diversity of format support in any tablet we've seen so far. It is indeed a capable video playback device and if this is high on your list of priorities, then the Archos G9 should be up for consideration.
GSMArena Samsung Galaxy Note review16th November 2011
That's where the Samsung Galaxy Note comes in. It aims to squeeze the high-res screen and battery longevity of a tablet into a package that is still pocketable. And it does - but success is by no means guaranteed. There's nothing between the Galaxy Note and 7\" tablets. And while it sounds good to have all that room to themselves, Samsung need to fill it with meaning. The right kind of users will be easily convinced of the advantages of an enlarged Galaxy S II. Not so sure about a compressed tablet.
Pocket-lint HTC Sensation XL review16th November 2011
If you like inches, you'll love the HTC Sensation XL. Picking up the form factor of the HTC Titan - effectively the same handset running Windows Phone 7 - the HTC Sensation XL sits on the top edge of what we'd call a phone. Any bigger and it steps in to tablet territory, like the Samsung Galaxy Note \"phablet\" as we like to call it here at Pocket-lint.
TechRadar HTC Sensation XL review15th November 2011
When the HTC Sensation arrived, HTC made it clear that it considered it a high-end flagship product. It packed specs to make the Samsung Galaxy S2 look nervously over its shoulder at number one in our list of the best mobile phones, mixed with that ol' HTC software magic. Only a few months later, we've got two new Sensation handsets. The HTC Sensation XE, which beefed up the processor even further and added Beats Audio. The HTC Sensation XL (try to keep up) instead offers a larger screen than the original Sensation, but with a 1.5GHz single-core processor, 16GB of built-in memory, and Beats Audio (like the XE).
SlashGear HTC Sensation XL review15th November 2011
Seldom has the name of a phone been so obviously related to its proposition as with the HTC Sensation XL. Bearing a supersized 4.7-inch touchscreen along with Beats Audio, this “extra large” Android smartphone should arguably be the pinnacle of HTC’s multimedia range. However, cost-cutting and some frustrating design decisions could undermine all that.
The Register Motorola RAZR review15th November 2011
It’s due to its timely embrace of Android that Motorola is still with us, so perhaps it’s fitting that the Razr badge should be resurrected at the dawn of Google’s ownership. Starting at the front, the Razr’s 4.3in 540 x 960 screen is close to perfect. The pixels-per-inch count of 256 can't match the iPhone’s 330 but the extra surface area makes all the difference, while the Super AMOLED panel is pin sharp, bright and wonderfully colourful.
CNET UK Samsung Galaxy Tab 8.9 review14th November 2011
Samsung is aiming for a tablet sweet spot with this mid-sized Android Honeycomb device. It squeezes full-fat power and an HD display into a slim, portable package, as well as some motion-sensitive innovations. The entry-level 16GB Wi-Fi model is a hefty £400 though, rising to around £500 for 3G.
CNET UK ZTE Skate review14th November 2011
The ZTE Skate offers pure Android 2.3 on a massive 4.3-inch screen for a very reasonable SIM-free price. An underpowered CPU and dodgy build quality are negatives, but the Skate's good qualities far outweigh its bad ones.
GSMArena Verzo Kinzo preview12nd November 2011
Verzo, an American company based in Czech Republic, has announced a new Android smartphone, called the Kinzo. With the Kinzo, Verzo is saying that they are not trying to compete with others based on specifications but in terms of design and user experience. And although that might sound like Apple, Verzo says that they are not competing with the iPhone either but rather against certain phones from Sony Ericsson, HTC, Motorola and LG.
TechRadar Samsung Galaxy Note review11st November 2011
Is it a bird? Is it a plane? Neither. It's a tablet. Or a phone. Or both. We really don't know – but it has some of the best specs around and Samsung's hoping this will ship by the bucketload. The Samsung Galaxy Note is a phone / tablet hybrid that doesn't really sit in any category - we've reviewed it as a smartphone simply due to the fact it can make calls, but Samsung is definitely trying to create a new category of device with this 5.3-inch screened behemoth.
The Inquirer Motorola RAZR review11st November 2011
US PHONE MAKER Motorola has resurrected its iconic Razr brand this year with its latest thin, light and tough smartphone. In the looks department the Razr is fairly plain from the front, apart from the shiny Motorola logo at the top. It has a shape that's similar to the firm's Xoom 2 tablets with cut off corners. Unfortunately there's a small hole in amongst the buttons that spoils the look slightly, looking like a DIY accident has occurred. However, flip the handset over and you're presented with something quite different. You can't help but notice how thin the device is at just 7.1mm - thinner than a biro pen. This is outstanding engineering and makes it the thinnest smartphone we've seen. The phone isn't this wafer thin size from top to bottom, but it's only a small section at the top around the camera that is slightly thicker.
CNET UK Sony Ericsson Live with Walkman review11st November 2011
Although it bears the once-prestigious Walkman name, the Sony Ericsson Live with Walkman isn't actually that impressive as a music player. However, for the price it offers a fantastic amount of value, leaving similarly-priced Android budget devices in the shade.
The Register Sony Ericsson Live with Walkman review11st November 2011
Sony Ericsson is still producing standalone Walkman devices, but the natural home for the oldest portable music player brand these days is on a phone. The Live With Walkman delivers the latest version of the music player in an Android phone with a 5Mp camera and a nippy 1GHz processor.
CNET UK Huawei Vision preview10th November 2011
The Huawei Vision offers a sturdy build and tempting take on Android Gingerbread for those of you on a modest budget. It's not the most powerful of smart phones though.
