PHOTO SAMPLES: Images taken with an Acer Liquid A1
Ahh, the Acer A1. Looks a bit chunky, runs a marginally customised version of Android 1.6 and boasts a whopping great 3.5″ touchscreen running at 480 x 800… Read the rest

Mewbox, the new music-buying app for Android we did something about what seems like ages ago, has finally launched on the Android Market – with an updated v1.3 yours for the having right now… Read the rest
High-resolution Nexus One photos still fail to impress
What is it with the Nexus One? Does it have some sort of cloaking device to stop people taking NICE photographs of the thing?.. Read the rest
Swift App for Twitter updated to v1.2
Oh, we love a bit of Swift. It’s a superb and cute-looking little Android Twitter client that’s still our #1 choice for mobile Tweeting, despite strong and alarmingly aggressive challenges from TwitterRide and the astonishingly polished Seesmic… Read the rest
RUBBISH APP: Chicago Transit Tracker Lite
Honestly, who lives in Chicago? Anyone? Anyone at all? No, didn’t think so. We’d be surprised if Chicago even existed, which makes the need for an Android app to track Chicago’s bus times possibly even more pointless than the entire “Health” section of the Android Market… Read the rest
Swype alternative Android keyboard reviewed, ripped and dumped on the internet
A few weeks ago, mobile news site MobileCrunch featured a sound and thorough look at the upcoming Android version of the Swype alternate keyboard for touchscreen phones, a gesture-enhanced QWERTY job which claims to speed up typing and make sending text sending text messages on Android as easy as, say, it was in 1999 on a very old Nokia… Read the rest
People have *ROOTED* their Nexus Ones now!
Seriously, what is going on? It makes no sense. Google’s still-not-announced phone, which EVERYONE IN THE WORLD seems to already have, has been rooted by a man on the internet – despite the “Google Phone” not even officially existing yet… Read the rest
GOOD APP: appSharers
Here’s another Android app-sharing tool, operating under the name appSharers. It’s a bit very extremely like Appshare, only it looks quite a bit better and more streamlined than Appshare, plus it has a prettier, more Android-like interface… Read the rest

Galaxy Nexus review
Google’s third Nexus is bigger, once again made by Samsung and features the new Android 4.0 or “Ice Cream Sandwich” version of the OS. It’s obviously going to be good. But how good? -
HTC Sensation XL review
The HTC Sensation XL is an odd one by HTC. It updates the screen size of this year’s HTC Sensation to 4.7″ and includes Beats Audio enhancements, but you lose a bit of processor speed – the HTC Sensation XL is powered by a single-core 1.5GHz brain… Read the rest

Motorola RAZR review
Motorola’s latest flagship dual-core Android monster is a massive, original powerhouse, that’s a big improvement on previous MOTOBLUR mobiles – but still isn’t a total winner. -
Sony Ericsson Xperia Ray review
A slim and glamorous phone from Sony Ericsson, with the sharpest display around. It’s no powerhouse and the screen’s not the biggest out there, but we don’t mind. Because it’s cute. -
LG Optimus 3D review
LG’s first glasses-free 3D phone is a heavy, fat monster, with a clever 3D effect that works rather well. As a smartphone, though, it’s heavy and underwhelming. -
Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo review
A very shiny thing from Sony Ericsson, with a 3.7″ screen and Android 2.3.3 inside. But is it exciting enough to win fans in today’s spec-obsessed market? Can man live on one core alone? -
Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo review: Camera and video samples
To accompany our Xperia Neo review we’ve put together this collection of photos taken using Sony Ericsson’s latest Android phone, which features an 8megapixel Exmor R sensor… Read the rest

INQ Cloud Touch review
INQ’s Android phone is an interesting “boutique” piece of hardware, packed with unique interface customisations that go far beyond the headline Facebook integration. We like it a lot.
