There’s HELL TO PAY in the IT department of Samsung, with the release of the Android 2.2 update for the company’s Galaxy S Android phone failing to hit its planned September release date.
Samsung is very sorry about that, and look – it’s working on getting it finished round the clock. Round the clock! There’s a team of men sobbing into a debug handset as we speak.
And no lunch breaks until it’s finished.
The Panasonic Eluga marks the company’s return to the European mobile phone scene years after several years of absence, and it’s come back to us with a moderately high-spec Android model that features a rather stylish, slim case. The Eluga’s powered by a 1GHz dual-core Texas Instruments OMAP processor, which is running a 4.3″ OLED [...]
The HTC One V is HTC’s third entry in its high-profile new HTC One range, offering a smaller 3.7″ display running on a single-core 1GHz processor. It is is very much the “affordable” option in HTC’s newest Android series, but it still arrives running the same HTC Sense 4 interface we saw in the excellent [...]
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.
Some camera samples taken with HTC’s quad-core Android monster.
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?
We’ve spent most of the last week captivated by the staggeringly sharp screen of the new Sony Xperia S, while putting together what will hopefully be something resembling a review for you all to read very shortly. In the meantime, to be getting on with, here are a few sample photos and videos, taken using [...]
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?
£30? For a phone case? It had better be good.
Samsung’s official Galaxy Nexus case. Costs a lot. Has a glittery little logo.
Fresh from reviewing the cheap and cheerful FlexiShield case for the Galaxy Nexus, we’re back with another protective offering from industry veteran Case-Mate. Although this particular product retails for around the same price as FlexiShield’s TPU option, it’s quite a different proposition. Review submitted by extremely patient retro gaming advisor Damo. As the name suggests, [...]
Seeing as we’ve just reviewed the brand spanking new Galaxy Nexus, we’re in the mood for some accessorising – and we don’t mean earnings and handbags. To that end, we’ll be covering a few Galaxy Nexus-themed items over the next few weeks, starting with the FlexiShield Case. Review submitted by reader, writer, gamer and occasional [...]

/ October 5, 2010Sounds like I should work there, I dont get any lunch full stop lol
Maybe after Froyo they should work round the clock again to sort out the terrible RFS system files that have made a super fast phone only work to half its potential….oh wait a minute, Samsung have washed there hands of that and left it up to the community, mainly XDA developers.
What should be happening is a Froyo update with a new fresh RFS system that works without lag. If it wasn’t for Ryan’s lag fix and the super amoled screen I would be really considering going for the HTC Desire HD..
When you pay that kind of money you don’t expect to have to mod your phone to get it working properly….work round the clock???….your having a laugh.

/ October 6, 2010Funny funny guys.
Froyo has been out officially since before this handset was released. It’s been in beta for many months prior to that.
I don’t know about everyone else, but for me the reason Froyo is so damn urgent is the activesync bug in 2.1 – HTC provided their own fix for their users; Moto supply a FREE COPY of touchdown to all their users.. Samsung? When I called their support tech they didn’t even acknowledge the issue….

/ December 8, 2010Yeah…they are working around the clock my butt. They released galaxy tab with Froyo and its taken them THIS long to release it for the Galaxy S? Goes to show they care about new customers than existing ones. I bet they worked hard to get it working on their Galaxy Tab but now just trying to play “catch up” with their phones by “working around the clock.” Last Samsung phone I buy.
