Nokia has today unveiled two new mobile phone models as it continues to accelerate its strategy to connect the next billion consumers to information and the internet. The Nokia 110 and Nokia 112 have been designed to appeal to young, urban consumers who want to experience a fast, affordable online experience.
Both devices are perfect for communicating across Facebook, Twitter and social media networks. The internet experience is also smooth thanks to the Nokia Browser. This innovative technology allows users to consume less data by up to 90%, by compressing websites in the cloud. Both devices offer direct access to Facebook and Twitter from their home screens. The Nokia 112 also features preloaded eBuddy instant messaging service right out of the box, so users can use popular chat services to keep conversations going 24/7.

The death of WiMAX has been greatly exaggerated. Well, maybe not, but there’s still a few phones coming out with the wireless standard, all of them apparently from Taiwanese manufacturer HTC. In addition to the HTC EVO V 4G on Virgin Mobile here in the states, Japanese carrier KDDI will be launching the HTC J this summer. So much for that “hero device strategy”, eh HTC?

The J is essentially a One S variant, but it sticks much closer to its source material than the DROID Incredible 4G LTE on Verizon. It’s got the same 4.3-inch

Generally, I think of smartphones when I hear the KDDi name. Smartphones aren’t all that the company is about and KDDi is getting ready to launch an Android 4.0 set-top box. Looking at the photo of the rendering from the official announcement, it’s clear somebody in the design department really likes the Nintendo Wii.

The rectangular set-top box looks very much like the Wii. The remote is shaped like a Wii controller right down to the rectangular opening on the bottom of the remote. I’m not sure product designers have got the memo

Yesterday we mentioned that the specifications and a couple pictures had leaked of the HTC Desire C entry-level smartphone. One of those leaked photographs was an official press shot that came from an errant early publication in a catalog. I’m not sure if the launch was always planned for today, or if HTC figured it might as well just give up the goods after the leaks. Whatever the case, we have a slew of official images of the Desire C in multiple colors.

The hardware mentioned yesterday was accurate with the smartphone offering up Beats

While pre-release benchmarks have a very hit or miss record for clues as to what future devices will bring, they almost always raise eyebrows. Nowhere is that more true than in a round of NenaMark2 testing uncovered this weekend: a previously unknown Samsung SCH-i535 for Verizon has tipped up sporting a 1.5GHz, dual-core Snapdragon S4 instead of

As you can imagine, we love nothing more than sitting next to a roaring log fire and diving into a good owners manual. As luck would have it, we'd just finished the last one, and then this lands in our laps. Yes, if you've already decided that you will be treating yourself to Samsung's latest mobile darling, you can start boning up on all those ne

The wait is over, the EVO 4G LTE is here. The name says it all; instead of going by the EVO One (in reference to its HTC One X bloodlines) or the EVO HD (a nod to the 4.7” 720p display), Sprint has chosen to stick with the EVO 4G nameplate and bill it as “a true successor to the original.” For a phone with such pedigree, this is a bold claim.

This has led to various devices getting the latest OS by Google at different times. In addition to that, when carriers are thrown into the mix, it makes the process that much more complicating and time-consuming. That said h

For most people who are familiar with the FCC, you would know that it regularly offers us the information which indicates that a device will soon be landing on US markets. Sometimes it gives us information about a device that is anticipated while at other times it gives us the scoop about devices that we didn’t even know existed. As for today, it s

The South Korean technology giant, Samsung has been known to have a vastly different mobile device strategy than its fierce rival Apple.

Back when we reviewed the LG Optimus S a year and a half ago we came away amazed that such a low-end device could perform so well. Now LG is back with the Optimus Elite for Sprint. The follow-up improves on the original by adding a bigger display, better camera and NFC connectivity. Can this new low-end Optimus live up to its predecessor’s p...

For many, one of the biggest causes of jealousy after the Samsung Galaxy S IIIlaunch event wasn't that 4.8-inch screen, or the new Exynos innards, it was that beautiful looking Android version of Flipboard. Alas, the Korean mobile giant had enough cunning to secure that little gem all for themselves -- for the time being. That is, unless, you're
