Samsung Galaxy S4 review
Two years ago, when you bought your last phone, there's a good chance you thought about buying the Samsung Galalxy S II before spending your money on an iPhone. This may not be the case again this year. The South Korean manufacturing giant has been through an immense brand evolution in this short time, so much so that the Galaxy S4 is probably at the top of your new phone shopping list.
HTC One SV Review
The HTC One SV is a mid-range 4G LTE smartphone that, despite it’s confusing name, really has nothing to do with the HTC One V. More accurately, it’s closer to being an upgraded version of the HTC One S. While it’s true that HTC we expect HTC to unveil some shiny new gadgetry on February 21st (three days hence), we still thought that we’d grab ourselves a One V and take it for a test run.
HTC One Sydney Event
It’s a constant of the tech industry that no matter how many spec sheets, reviews and opinion pieces you read you’ll never really get a proper feel for a device until you hold it in your hands and use its key features. Fortunately for us, HTC held a belated HTC One launch in Sydney last night and we got to do just that.
HTC One SV Hands-On Impressions
We haven’t been giving much love to mid-range Android handsets of late and we apologise for that. To try and make up for it we thought we’d get our hands on HTC’s latest 4G LTE mid-ranger, the HTC One SV (not to be confused with the HTC One S or HTC One V) and put it through its paces.
Optus' 4G Milestone Event, 2012
Optus held a small but lively event today outlining its network expansion so far in 2012 and some of its plans for 2013. Among the talk of the wireless broadband race and increased 3G reception were also some of the 4G LTE devices that Optus will be offering, or is already offering, on its new 4G infrastructure.
Humble Bundle #4 on Android Review
The Humble Bundle is a game package-deal that crops up now and again. The idea is that customers pay as much or as little as they want for a pre-set pack of games that have proven themselves as popular in the recent market. Not only is the price chosen by the purchaser, but the distribution of the funds as well. How the money is split between the developer, charity and the Humble Bundle organisers is decided by the payer. As an added bonus, customers who pay above the current average payment are gifted with an extra game (sometimes multiple), adding more incentive for customers to pay slightly more and more as time goes on without actually enforcing anything.
HTC One XL Review
The HTC One XL is the 4G LTE enabled version of HTC’s current flagship device: the HTC One X. The One XL is available in Australia on the Telstra 4G network and is definitely one of the better 4G smartphone options in Australia, especially if you’re buying Android.
HTC One V Review
The HTC One V is a budget smartphone currently offered by HTC. It is currently the cheapest device from HTC’s One range of Android phones and is the spiritual successor to the HTC Hero and Legend smartphones. The One V borrows a lot of its aesthetic design from the HTC Legend and HTC Hero. It’s a fairly small device, coming in with just a 3.7 inch display and 9.2mm profile.
Samsung Galaxy S3 Review
The Samsung Galaxy S3 (aka S III) should need no introduction. It’s the latest record-breaking Android flagship device from the world’s #2 smartphone manufacturer. Bringing more than just upgraded specs to the table, the Galaxy S3 is the fastest-selling Android smartphone to date with an estimated 19 million units to have shipped by the end of Q3 of 2012.
HTC One S Review
The HTC One S is the second smartphone down the new HTC One line of phones comprise of the One X, One S and One V in descending order of hardware specs. The One S is a sleek device aimed at providing a solid, modern Android experience without charging premium rates or relying on OS updates. We grabbed a hold of one to see just how successfully HTC managed to deliver this reliable yet affordable experience to its users with our HTC One S review.
