We’ve tried most of the Twitter Apps, and Swift is best. That’s it. That’s the review right there. If you came here for the review, you can go already.
Swift isn’t the most feature-packed of the many Android phone Twitter enablers out there, but it is the fastest – both to load and navigate – and speed is what you want when sneakily checking your Tweets under the desk to pass the time in a dull meeting.
You have to ask what you want from a mobile Twitter App. Chances are you’ll just use it to read messages and post the occasional status update – so features like URL-shortening and sharing photos are unnecessary luxuries you’d never use anyway.
Much as we love Android, fiddling about shortening and forwarding links in Twitter is something best left until the next time you’re at home on your proper computer, it’s simply still too awkward a thing to do on a tiny touch-screen. For a fast, read-only Twitter fix, Swift is best.
HTC’s 4.3″ dual-core Android model, powered by Qualcomm’s all-new S4 processor. It’s smaller than the enormous One X, but is it as nice as its bigger brother? (SPOILER: Yes it is).
HTC is very much B-A-C-K at the top of the Android world with this, its quad-core flagship for 2012. Great camera, huge 4.7″ display and Android 4.0 running beautifully well.
Sony returns with an all-new mobile design for 2012, pairing a dual-core processor with a 720p display. It’s a lovely phone, but is it enough to end our Samsung and HTC obsession?
LG’s updated Prada phone comes with an absolutely crazy black & white theme, but is it just for fashionable suit wearers who want to make themselves look a bit more interesting?
