  • HTC EVO 4G meets magnetic macro lens, shoots gorgeous closeups

    HTC EVO 4G meets magnetic macro lens, shoots gorgeous closeups

    As phone accessories go, protruding lens attachments are rarely top of our wishlist, but this one here might just alter our perspective a little bit. Good and EVO have gone to the trouble of obtaining a magnetically mountable macro lens to test out how well the EVO 4G's camera performs with a little more optical prowess. The answer is that in spite of the inevitably goofy appearance, the jumbo Android handset delivered some highly impressive imagery, getting really up close and personal with its subjects and picking out exquisitely tiny details. The results are certainly of a caliber unobtainable with the default optics and well worth checking out -- the source link is where that party's at.

    Samsung already working on a Galaxy S Pro, complete with physical keyboard?

    Sometime yesterday afternoon, some new information started floating around the Kingdom of Ol’ Rumorton. “The Samsung Galaxy S… another version is coming,” whispered the trees of Rumorton, “and it’s called the Galaxy S Pro! And it has a physical keyboard!” The rumors were in a bit too shaky of a state yesterday for us to cover [...]

    This Windows Phone 7 tablet concept toys with our hopes and dreams

    Windows Phone 7 has a gorgeous interface. Everyone can agree with that. But this concept shows that it even transfers to a 8-inch slate just fine. Plus it throws in a a built-in stand, two analog joysticks and a keyboard for good measure. We like. Click through for a quick demo video.

    Video: HTC Legend gets an early unboxing

    Can’t get enough of the ultra gorgeous, uni-body HTC Legend? Neither can we. That’s why we’re glad (and a bit jealous) that our buddy Chris Davies over at SlashGear got his mitts all over a near-retail version of the device, and proceeded to give it a proper unboxing. We say “near-retail” version because there seems to [...]

    No web filter: Sony to stop offering the XEL-1 OLED TV (in Japan)

    Say what you want about it (too expensive, too small etc.), but I've always liked the world's first commercially available OLED TV, Sony's XEL-1. It's just an 11-inch screen and costs $2,200, but the picture quality is just gorgeous. Today, however, Sony announced they won't produce and sell the device on the Japanese market anymore.

    Lumigon T1, S1 and E1 packs Android into some gorgeous hardware

    Hardware specs and software and application support are probably the biggest things we look at when deciding on a new phone, but sometimes we quickly dismiss design and aesthetics. Now we can have a generous serving of both thanks to Scandanavian manufacturer Lumigon.

    The Qisda QCM-330 is gorgeous, headed for Vodafone, and quite possibly Android-powered

    When it comes to bar-shaped smartphones, it takes a good amount of effort to design something visually appealing. There’s really only so much you can do with a flat slab – and whatever can be done likely already has. With that said, there’s just something about this handset, the Qisda QCM-330. I’m not sure what that [...]

    Drooling over the Android-powered Lenovo Lephone? Bask in it while it lasts, friends – as far as we know, these brand new press shots (and our fantastic hands-on with the device) are about as close as any of us outside of China are going to get with it any time soon.

  • Motorola Calgary is like the Droid, but horribly ugly

    Motorola Calgary is like the Droid, but horribly ugly

    Their seems to be two distinct camps when it comes to the Motorola Droid. One group looked at it and said, "Wow! That is a gorgeous phone!"; the other looked at it and said, "Wow! That is a horrendous phone!". I, personally, am in Camp 1 - I think the Droid is pretty stunning. The same can not be said for Motorola's other Android phone for Verizon, which just leaked all over the place.

    HTC HD2! United States! Q1 2010!

    Bam! There we were complaining that it would likely be a long time before the mind-blowingly gorgeous HTC HD2 showed its face stateside, and SlashGear managed to get a date out of them. According to HTC CEO Peter Chou, we should see this hit the shores sometime in Q1 of 2010. Sure, it’ll still be [...]

    Sony Ericsson “Rachel” is the XPERIA X3, Specs leaked

    Oh man, Expansys. Either you've got someone who doesn't know how to punch in embargo dates properly, or whoever is in charge of determining when your product pages go live likes to live on the edge. Expansys has leaked or confirmed details on more handsets than we'll even bother to count. This time around, they've shined a light on Sony Ericsson's first (and oh-so-gorgeous) Android handset, Rachel.
