The Samsung Galaxy Mega 5.8 lands in our office, we give it the hands-on treatmentThe iPhone-controlled quadricopter Parrot AR.Drone is coming soon. To be more specific, the toy will start selling across the USA this September for 299 US dollars. Join me after the break to see a short AR.Drone video demo.
Hollywood has the 3D fever and more and more of the new movies come out in 3D. A 3D craze is starting in the gaming industry too – the Nintendo 3DS brings 3D gaming to handhelds and it’s attracting a lot of attention over at the E3 gaming show…
HTC Europe is releasing today a firmware upgrade to the HTC Hero. It’s still not the eagerly waited Android 2.1. update, but it’s close.
The update released today is actually a preparation for the full Android 2.1 rollout, which should also wipe the full HTC Hero system memory.
Ok, technically, that heading up there might be a wee bit over-the-top but what I meant is that the just announced Sony Ericsson XPERIA X8 has already been featured in a series of live shots made by electronic publications from around the world.
The Sony Ericsson XPERIA X8 just went official and not a moment later, the Internet was filled with live photos of it, even a couple of previews. I’ve assembled a quick photo tour from these previews – especially interesting is the size comparison between the X10 mini, X8 and the big X10…
Today Opera released a new beta version of their desktop browser. Opera 10.60 beta is reportedly 50% faster than its predecessor and is available for download right away.
In addition to the performance boost the new Opera 10.60 offers Geolocation to optimize your search results. The browser can detect your current location and give you the best search results for your place.
Today isn’t only the day when the iPhone 4 hits it off (sort of) but it’s also the birthday of the latest and greatest Apple Mac mini, which now comes in an aluminum unibody and packs an HDMI port and an SD card slot and is said to deliver up to twice the graphics performance. Oh, and it still is as sleek as it’s ever been. Prices start from 700 US dollars.
When a manufacturer tacks on a “Pro” at the end of a phone’s name, chances are you’re getting more or less the same phone as the “non-pro” but with a hardware QWERTY keyboard.
So, it should come as no surprise that the Samsung Galaxy S Pro, which is reportedly headed to Sprint, is a lot like a Galaxy S with a QWERTY keyboard. The Galaxy S Pro is reportedly going to be the second 4G phone for Sprint and the QWERTY-less Galaxy S is coming too…
Yesterday evening Microsoft announced their new version of Xbox 360 – Slim. It will pack a 250GB hard drive and integrated Wi-Fi adapter.
Microsoft finally revealed all the details on its Xbox 360 motion control system previously known as Project Natal and now rebranded as Kinect. Yeah, I know, the new name doesn’t really roll off the tongue, does it?
I’m not into games, I just don’t have the time for them. But I would definitely give that Microsoft Kinect a try. Who wouldn’t?! Apparently, we’ll have to wait until November – this is when the thing is expected to arrive in stores nearby. Meantime you can take a look at some Kinect live images.
The Vietnamese guys from Tinhte have just shed some light on the Samsung 7-inch Galaxy tablet.
The first thing to note is its changed name – it seems Galaxy Tab will be dropped in favor of Galaxy Tape.
Microsoft wants to remind you and all of manufacturers that Windows XP sales will end on 22 October this year. After this date all netbooks must be sold with Windows 7 – probably Starter edition.
Netbooks are the very reason for Windows XP second lease of life, but its end is finally near.
If pinch zooming was the one thing you’ve missed on your Windows Mobile smartphone you shouldn’t worry on that anymore. The resistive screen of your smartphone will not bug you anymore. A third-party developer has found a solution allowing you to pinch zoom on any WinMo device in the most suitable apps such as web browser, gallery, maps, etc.
I was anxious to try out the iOS 4 on my iPhone 3G ever since it was announced so you can imagine how impatient I was to install the iOS 4 Gold – the final developer’s beta that was unlocked for installation to non-developer’s iPhones. Waiting until 21 June to get the final version was simply not an option.
Well, I was in for a handful of disappointments. I suppose those upgraders among you that don’t have an iPhone 3GS will feel the same.
Nowadays people are able to choose from a huge variety of applications for their mobile phones. But, as a recent survey reveals, the general preferences are actually similar and we go for the same apps. No matter what the platforms our phones are based on.
The following charts are based on a survey that Nielsen made among 4200 people who have downloaded an app in the past 30 days.
Nokia are currently doing a series of videos on the upcoming N8 and today they published the third and last one. Unfortunately, much like the second video we saw, it’s not what we’d call overexciting. They’ve somehow lost the momentum of the first clip.
But let’s not waste any more time. Head for the video to see how fluid is the N8 Album art video three and a half years after the announcement of the first iPhone, which pioneered it. Oh, and in case you didn’t know, you need an HDMI adapter to use a regular sized HDMI cable with your N8. Enjoy the show!
