Google’s just uploaded the whole of yesterday’s staggeringly exciting press conference to YouTube, so you can relive the events as they happened.
GASP as the web-based Android Market is revealed. TREMBLE as the man says it’s gone live as he speaks. LOOK ON IN AMAZEMENT as the Honeycomb tablet version of Android gets shown off in quite some detail. IMAGINE how worried Steve Jobs is going to be feeling.
Sorry about last night. Got way too excited by it all.
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 [...]

/ February 3, 2011This has to be one of the most interesting Google presentations ever. Much more polished, with the exception of the videocall with Ladykiller. They forgot the old adage to not work with animals children and celebrities (okay, in invented the last bit, but it demonstrably applies).
Honeycomb is a pivotal development of Android that will make or break the tablet devices using that particular OS. So far, running tablets with Android 2.x is disappointingly dull. From what is seen on this presentation video the future exciting indeed.
And what of the competition? It can only be good for us all if there is a truly viable alternative to the tablet device and OS that broke the mould and created this game in the first place. Everyone said it could not be done, that tablets would fail as they have done before. The short history of this genre of tablets has proved otherwise. So it is u to Android and the other OS to step up their game. Android has certainly done that in Honeycomb.
I predict a resounding success :-)
