Another one of the BIG BOYS has woken up to the existence of Android, with UK retail giant Sainsbury’s finally bringing something to Android after a long period with only an iOS offering out there.
The Sainsbury’s Android app isn’t a full shopping experience, sadly, only offering a selection of the current deals available in store – plus Nectar card integration so you’re also sent offers relating to its loyalty card scheme if registered and signed in.
Plus there’s a rather useless store finder, as if we have any trouble locating its MASSIVE ORANGE SIGNS. Still, nice to have official recognition. Check it out on the Android Market.
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.
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’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.
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?
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.
