Samsung’s ChatON app, which is a cross-format messaging app with plenty of social features and a very enjoyable trailer, is now live on Android. You don’t need a Samsung phone to make it work, just something with Android 2.2 or higher and some people to talk to.
Tick those boxes and you get a heavily customised, super-colourful and quirky messaging app, full of photo-sharing and ranking tools that lets you keep touch with any friends you may have that are still using old Samsung “feature” phones. And there’s a version for Bada phones, too. Poor Bada.
An entirely separate button just for inserting emoticons. This is definitely not the app for me. If your life is this happy and colourful and filled with smiling people in ironic hats and glasses, ChatON is on the Android Market here.

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.
