GOOD APP: Make It Default Browser
Can you guess what Make It Default Browser does?
Yes, we suspect you probably can – it makes Opera the default browser on your Android phone, if you were so impressed by Opera Mini 5 that you want to use the over-complicated, oddly-rendering browser as your Android default web reader instead of the standard Android one… Read the rest
GOOD APP: UK Rail
This little independent production popped up on the Android Market earlier today, and fills a massive gap – by providing a simple, searchable database of train departure times… Read the rest
GOOD APP: AutoRotate OnOff

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
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 RAZR review
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. -
Sony Ericsson Xperia Ray review
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 Optimus 3D review
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. -
Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo review
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? -
Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo review: Camera and video samples
