I’ve posted my review of the Motorola DROID X for Verizon on MobileBurn.com, and I didn’t spend only a few hours with it like so many other guys that wrote reviews.  Ahem.  In any case, I like the device quite a bit, but wouldn’t tend to use one personally since I like smaller phones with [...]

Busy couple of Android-related days here. I’ve just made live my full length review of the LG Ally for Verizon. It’s a very slick Android 2.1 smartphone with a great slide-out QWERTY keyboard, a WVGA resolution display, and some of the best calling abilities I’ve come across in a very long time. You know. For [...]

I don’t really have to to re-write everything that Google just announced for Android 2.2 (Froyo), so I’m going to take the easy way out and just include the text from my original post on MobileBurn.com. This morning at Google’s Google I/O conference in San Francisco, Google officially launched the Android 2.2 “Froyo” smartphone operating [...]

I’ve posted my full review of the Motorola BACKFLIP for AT&T on MobileBurn. Oddly enough, I like the device more now than I did originally, which bodes well for how real world users might react to the phone. I still dislike the large keyboard, and I think the BACKTRACK directional controller’s a bad idea, but [...]

I meant to post this yesterday, but the business side of this web stuff got in the way (tax season approaches, you know).  In any case, here are my two videos of the Motorola BACKFLIP for AT&T.  I’m currently working on a full written review for MobileBurn.com, but I can share the videos and some [...]

Lots of video to put up today, as the floodgates have once again opened in our review queue over at MobileBurn.com.  The first up are Russell Jefferies two videos of the HTC Legend that he received late last week.  This beauty of a phone sports a solid aluminum/aluminium body, and optical joystick, and a sweet [...]

I’ve posted my full-length Google Nexus One review on MobileBurn.com.  You should jump over there and give it a read (and watch the videos, if you haven’t watched them here already). In short, I like the device, but don’t love it. Text input is a big weakness, as is the 3G data. The 3.7-inch AMOLED [...]

Here are the two videos I shot for my upcoming written Google Nexus One review on MobileBurn.com.  I should have posted them here right away, but, quite frankly, I forgot. Oh well. In any case, here they are.  First one directly below, the second after the jump.

I finally got around to putting together a review specific to the U.S. versions of the HTC Hero, Sprint’s own Hero and the DROID Eris for Verizon.  They are largely the same as the original Hero found in Europe and other parts of the world, but as a U.S. site, it made sense (pardon the [...]

I posted my review of the Samsung Behold II for T-Mobile USA earlier this afternoon.  A real mixed bag on this one.  I like the hardware quite a bit, especially the camera and the AMOLED display, but the software leaves much to be desired. There are some real wonky text input bugs, for example, and [...]
