Online super-discount tech retailer Play.com has popped up product listings for the SIM-free versions of both the X10 Mini and the X10 Mini Pro, with the prices clocking in way down on what we’d usually expect to pay for an unlocked Android phone… Read the rest

Dating site Match.com launches official Android app
Now, we’re not suggesting you’re single and looking and that you spend all your spare time browsing profiles on dating sites, but if you are, this app from Match.com has just “gone live” this evening:
It’s slightly unsettling and a little bit sad that Match.com has chosen to feature HOT WOMEN in the promotional images for its Android app, but we guess that’s the world we live in today… 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

Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo review

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.
