Headset Droid is a very, very clever idea. It manages to rewire the functions of Android headphone buttons, so if you’re using a pair of supplied phones that have physical next/previous/play/pause buttons on an inline remote, it’ll be possible to allocate them new functions.
Works with Android 1.6 phones and above.
It’s a paid app costing the equivalent of £0.87 on the Android Market. It’s picked up some very decent reviews so it’s almost certain you’ll get at least 87p worth of use from it.
£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… Read the rest
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… Read the rest
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?
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’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?
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’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.

/ April 25, 2011It’s a pity the supplied headset with my HTC DHD (unsure what others are like: review Gary??) is dreadful. (uncomfortable and poor sound)
I use Sennheiser’s and Dr Dre’s with Power Amp Pro.
