The new Android Dropbox app has been teased quite heavily by the makers, now it’s out there and should be updating itself on your phone. It’s massively different, turning Dropbox into more of a visual, exciting looking, photo and file manager than the simple sharing utility it was before.
You now get a very swish new front end with a tabbed layout, little icon previews, a drop-down shortcut list beside each file, built-in file manager for sharing things other than photos and videos, a Favourites tab that stores files on the phone, a custom image gallery…
…and it’s all very nice indeed. And just in time to make it easier to manage and upload all those photographs of you pretending to be happy in front of a Christmas tree.
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.
