We’ve all seen the ridiculous Samsung videos where they pit some clueless iPhone users against one of their experienced gurus in an attempt to show how you can do more with a Samsung Android device. Well, one Android user decided to switch over to the iPhone to see for himself which of the operating systems was truly easier or “simpler” to use. After 30 days of using an iPhone, he finds iOS to be much more frustrating and actually more difficult to use. Well, not so much “difficult” as cumbersome.
There have been tons of Samsung Galaxy S III rumors and leaks, and while most have been downright laughable, this next one appears to be the real deal. A leaked video and some photos show the innards of the Samsung Galaxy S III encased in a plastic dummy shell (and being charged by a BlackBerry micro-USB cable) to keep the final design under wraps. The good news is the unit was fully functional and able to provide us with a look at a slew of specs.
Friday the 13th has long been viewed as an unlucky day in America, so much so that one of America’s top grossing horror franchises was named after the superstitious day. While many people are quick to disregard such mumbo jumbo, I’m betting a few Google employees are now believers. It appears Friday the 13th has struck the Googleplex, and after some late night rain, has turned building 44 into Camp Crystal Lake. Rising from the depths of Crystal Lake is the left-for-dead Eclair, hellbent on enacting revenge upon his fellow fun-loving desserts. After a couple attempts to take out Gingerbread, Eclair is finally stopped by a few brave Google employees willing to get their feet wet. All-in-all it was a one-of-a-kind day at Google — let’s hope they never release a sequel.
HTC is extremely proud of the new EVO 4G LTE and wants to give consumers an inside look at what went into designing this soft touch, hairline finished, kickstand beast of a phone. It’s a neat look into the design process and shows that they don’t just slap on any old chassis and call it a day. There’s been a lot of complaints about the glossy top half on the back of the device as most users seem to prefer the soft touch, but we’ll have to wait until we actually have it in our hands before we can make an official judgement.
There’s no question mobile cameras have advanced tremendously over the years and they’ve even become a main feature focus for many consumers and manufacturers. One such example is the hype over the HTC One X camera. HTC has made a pretty big deal over their new ImageSense software as well as the custom ImageChip, f/2.0 lens, HDR technology, and super fast capture. We’ve seen a few sample photos, some good, some bad, but what about some real world tests against a couple device also known for their camera prowess?
