The iPhone 4S Is Not The Number One Smartphone In The World Anymore
Update: It has been noted that the figure below encompasses the major U.S. carriers only. Our argument is that if Samsung is number one everywhere else (China etc) it’s pretty difficult for Apple to have the top smartphone. When more refined figures appear we will update this with figures that show this. Ahhh that explains it. All the trolling trials and attempts to destroy Samsung’s image as a company. Honestly some of things Sammy did both before and leading up to the trial were not very wise... Read The Rest →

Purported Galaxy Note 2 Bezel Shows Unexpected Design Direction
You may have seen some of the stories out there regarding the Samsung Galaxy Note 2. Josh Keene investigated the subject of the dubious renders that have been popping up HERE and now we move on to this purported image of the bezel that will be used in the finished product. Surprise it doesn’t match the renders at all. The renders follow a similar design aesthetic as the Samsung Galaxy S3 and this, well you tell me. This one looks to be not so curvy right?

HTC Proto Rumored, Very Nice Mid-Level Specs On Board!!
In the cut throat world of Android phones, HTC has had its peaks and valleys. Just the other year they were on top of the Android world with best-selling phones on multiple carriers.

HTC decided to change their tactics and focus on releasing fewer phones but ones of greater quality and this year has shown that choice with the unveiling of the One series. While the phones have been very... Read The Rest →
The Trial Of The Century (at least for us) Begins And Why We Think Samsung May Actually Win
I won’t get on my soapbox too much on this one as I chronicled pretty well in my last editorial that covered a Samsung legal brief going into the billion dollar trial between them and Apple. Well we got more. Samsung has brought out some pretty interesting information on their designs previous to the iPhone which Apple seems to think the invented (they actually stole it from the likes of LG , Palm, HTC, Samsung and Sony and we can prove it). Case in point Apple has removed a few... Read The Rest →

As one of the world’s chief manufacturers of these displays, they find their way onto many Samsung phones and tablets. Sammy’s displays are known for vibrant colors, great viewing angles, and performance in sunlight. However due to their technology being based on a PenTile matrix there have always been detractors who point out that LCD has a step up in clarity. All that is about to change with news out of Samsung’s... Read The Rest →

There has been some disappointing showings with phones made to play games and not even Sony has been able to... Read The Rest →
