Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1

Posted by & filed under Featured, Tablets.

This review has been a long time coming. Partly because of recent life changes, but mainly because I’ve been reluctant to let go of this device. This will be my last review for a few months, while I take a hiatus to work on other projects. Hope to resume again in the Fall. Introducing the… Read more »

Droid 3

Posted by & filed under Phones.

The Motorola Droid 3, the natural followup to its predecessors Droid 2 and Droid 1 (the latter reviewed here previously), was released late last year. My first smart phone was a Droid, so I was very curious to see how things have improved since two years ago. The specifications of the phone are decent –… Read more »

HTC Incredible 2

Posted by & filed under Phones.

This review is long overdue, and I apologize! The HTC Incredible 2, released earlier this year, is the successor to the first generation HTC Incredible (previously reviewed, favorably). At first glance and overview, this particular phone strongly resembles the first generation Incredible, and under the hood, it sports modernized electronics that are of similar caliber…. Read more »

Droid Charge

Posted by & filed under Phones.

The Droid Charge, produced by Samsung, was buzzed as being yet-another “iPhone Killer”, an unhelpful appellation that gets thrown onto pretty much every new phone that comes out that isn’t made by Apple. As a member of Verizon’s recent class of 4G LTE smartphones, along with its fancy AMOLED, two cameras, HDMI out, and a… Read more »

Motorola Xoom [Tablet Review]

Posted by & filed under Tablets.

The Motorola Xoom is one of the main Android-based (3.1/Honeycomb) tablet competitors to Apple’s iPad.  With dual cameras, a 10.1″ screen (capable of 720p HD), 3G and wi-fi capabilties, 32GB of onboard storage and a 1GHz dualcore processor (see full specs), it certainly shows promise. Because this is my first tablet review, the format may be… Read more »

HTC Thunderbolt [Phone Review]

Posted by & filed under Phones.

For my first phone back on the review beat, I was given the HTC Thunderbolt. The name, suggesting speed, is a nod to the phone’s combination of being both a “4G” phone and having the speedy 1GHz Snapdragon processor and 8GB of RAM. On the local side, it also supports 802.11 b/g AND n, so… Read more »

Coming Soon, the reviews return! [Tech Review]

Posted by & filed under Technology.

I am back in the saddle with Verizon reviews. Currently in the process of reviewing the HTC Thunderbolt (so far, so good!), and hope to have the review up next week. Coming up shortly after are the Droid Charge and Motorola Xoom tablet! Disclosure notice: Reviewed tech hardware provided indirectly by Verizon; however, I am… Read more »

Microsoft Kin 2 [Tech Review]

Posted by & filed under Phones.

My second review phone was the Microsoft Kin 2. I had seen many ads for this around the Internet, and was very excited to try it out. The phone focuses on social media and sharing content. Up to now, I have not used any phones or devices by Microsoft, so I wasn’t entirely sure what… Read more »

HTC Incredible 1

Posted by & filed under Phones.

UPDATED: Some corrections about the SD card issue. Details below. The HTC Incredible is aptly named. After using my Motorola Droid for a couple of months now, it’s going to be difficult to go back to it after using this miniature powerhouse for only a week. At face value, there are plenty of specs to… Read more »
