HP Pre 3 UK price drop outed on official site
Like UnlikeFiled in: Cell PhonesHPPre3
It looks like the long-awaited HP Pre 3 UK price has been outed on the official site, but won't be there for long.
We spoke to the official representatives, who told us that the page was 'likely going to be taken down soon' and the Pre 3 won't be put on sale directly.
However, and take this following statement with a HUGE pinch of salt, the chap we spoke to on the phone said that high street retailers 'such as The Carphone Warehouse and PC World' will be taking stock of the phone, although couldn't confirm the price would be the same.
A retro classic in the making
We're interested to see if this pans out - considering customer service 'facts' are wrong nearly every time, we're not holding ou...

Sony Ericsson announces Xperia Arc S with 1.4GHz CPU
Like UnlikeFiled in: Cell PhonesSony EricssonXperia arc
Even today, the Sony Ericsson Xperia Arc is one of the sexiest phones to ever exist in my book, hindered only by its late 2010 specs. Well, Sony Ericsson just announced the Xperia Arc S, and slightly beefed-up Arc with a 1.4GHz processor. Whether or not it’s enough to make us want to pick one up is another story but it’s still the sexy beast we’ve come to love.
So what exactly does this spec bump bring to the tablet? Well, Sony Ericsson claims the 1.4GHz CPU will allow camera start-up and media conversion times to be up to 25% faster, and 20% faster web page rendering compared to the original. You’ll also see some new features like Sony 3D panorama shot, as well as Music and Video Unlimited.

DROID BIONIC teaser campaign begins
Like UnlikeFiled in: Cell PhonesMotorolaDROID BIONIC
Verizon Wireless just had a high-security briefcase hand delivered to our office, and it sure looks like the Motorola DROID BIONIC hype machine has started. First off, the briefcase is covered with the DROID logo, and there’s also a plaque on the briefcase that says that this is #2 of four pieces in existence. Sure enough, a visit to www.droiddoes.com/bionic allowed us to input a special code engraved on the object inside the case. So what is inside the briefcase? Check out our gallery below for images and hit the jump for the text engraved on the inside of the case.

BlackBerry Bold 9900 now available at T-Mobile
Like UnlikeFiled in: Cell PhonesRIM BlackBerryBold 9900
RIM’s latest batch of BlackBerry smartphones have been gradually working their way out to various carriers over the last few weeks, and now there’s yet another notch to scratch. T-Mobile now has the BlackBerry Bold 9900 on sale for $299.99 on a two-year contract, as expected. That pricetag is a little on the high side, but up here in Canada, Bell has already slashed the price to $100 on a three-year contract, so expect a few cuts in the near future.
The BlackBerry Bold 9900 is spearheading RIM’s latest efforts, offering a 2.8-inch touchscreen with a 640 x 480 resolution, 1.2 GHz processor, 768 MB of RAM, and a 5 megapixel camera with 720p video recording. The operating system is more or less...

White Samsung Galaxy W caught in the wild
Like UnlikeFiled in: Cell PhonesSamsungGALAXY W
Of all the new Android phones Samsung has recently announced, it seems the Galaxy W will be their biggest seller, with Three UK already adding it to its “Coming Soon” pages. Specs wise, it sits somewhere between the original Galaxy S and Galaxy S II, though boasting a smaller 3.7-inch screen. In that sense, I guess the W is made for people who think phones with 4-inch and bigger displays are too bulky to carry around. I can understand the argument, though I don’t agree with it completely.
Anyway, the news is that in addition to the “default” black version, Sammy’s “W”onder phone will also be available in white, or at least the image above suggests so. I like white phones and can see the Kor...

Radio Shack to give its customers a thrill; the LG Thrill 4G will be offered for $79.99 on contract
Like UnlikeFiled in: Cell PhonesLGThrill 4G
News about the LG Thrill 4G has been coming quickly now that AT&T has confirmed the September 4th launch of the 3D enabled phone as we reported. While AT&T plans on offering the LG Thrill 4G for $99.99 with a 2-year contract, a leaked picture of a Radio Shack internal document shows that the retailer plans on offering the phone for $79.99 with the 2-year pact. Without the contract, the Shack will ask you for $549.99 to get a Thrill 4G.
At $79.99, Radio Shack would match the price that Target is expected to ask for the phone, as we informed you. The stereoscopic 3D effects do not require any special glasses and the handset comes loaded with 3 games, N.O.V.A, Let's Golf 2 and Asphalt 6. In the...

Sprint Galaxy S II (Epic 4G Touch) outed before announcement
Like UnlikeFiled in: Cell PhonesSamsungEpic 4G Touch
We’re only a few hours away until Samsung takes the stage and announces the Galaxy S II for the US of A. Just in case you needed a little more confirmation before the official announcement, some slides of the Epic 4G Touch have appeared in a Samsung online training manual.
We already knew that T-Mobile’s version of the GSII, the Hercules, would get a screen bump to 4.5 inches from 4.3, and it looks like the Sprint variant will also gain a couple of fractions of an inch. According to the training slides, the screen is actually 4.52 inches of Super AMOLED Plus goodness, and we’re just fine with that.
The Galaxy S II is Samsung most popular phone to date, selling over five million units before ...

Motorola Pro+ announced - Just a slightly beefier Droid Pro?
Like UnlikeFiled in: Cell PhonesMotorolaPRO+
Verizon was first to get it, and Sprint just did but now AT&T will soon have its own version of Motorola’s wannabe BlackBerry phone. The Droid Pro or Xprt aren’t the worst phone’s we’ve seen but both are lacking in the spec department. Luckily for AT&T, the Motorola Pro+ has seen a couple of spec-bumps.
The Pro+ really isn’t anything special. It ships with more memory (4GB vs 2GB), Android 2.3 Gingerbread instead of Android 2.2 Froyo, and Gorilla Glass now adorns the face of the display but that hardly sounds like much of an upgrade if you ask me. From the looks of it, the battery has actually shrunk from 1860 mAh to 1600 mAh, which is just another reason to start scratching your head. T-Mob...

Samsung Vitality with Muve Music serenades itself to Cricket
Like UnlikeFiled in: Cell PhonesSamsungAdmire
If you remember the Samsung Admire at MetroPCS, then the manufacturer's Vitality handset will look mighty familiar. It's coming to Cricket and will join the Suede (a feature phone) as the network's only smartphone with Muve Music. Like the Admire, it features an 800MHz CPU, 3.5-inch HVGA touchscreen, a 3.2MP camera and runs stock Gingerbread. While its price and release date remain elusive, we're told the requisite plan will ring in at $65 per month -- a spendy leap for the network that goes chirp in the night. Perhaps that's the rub when you combine an Android plan with unlimited song downloads, ringtones and ringback tones. Hey, nobody ever said it'd be cheap to be law-abiding.

BlackBerry Torch 9860 burns up Telus for $99.99
Like UnlikeFiled in: Cell PhonesRIM BlackBerryTorch 9860
Not far behind Bell, Telus has launched the BlackBerry Torch 9860, RIM’s first all-touchscreen phone in a long time. The pricetag is sitting at $99.99 on a three-year contract, for $549.99 with no strings attached.
The BlackBerry Torch 9860 has the biggest, sharpest screen we’ve seen on a BlackBerry to date, measuring 3.7 inches and 800 x 480 pixels. The 5 megapixel camera on the back can shoot 720p video and has an LED flash for low-light conditions, and the whole package is powered by a 1.2 GHz processor with 768 MB of RAM. The software is a modest iterative upgrade on the old BlackBerry OS, including a few goodies like augmented reality support, a 3D-capable graphics rendering engine, and...

Samsung “Omnia W” to have a 1.4 Ghz processor, NFC?
Like UnlikeFiled in: Cell PhonesSamsungOMNIA
SamFirmware, who is a good source of pre-release Samsung ROMs, have just tweeted that Samsung’s new Windows Phone 7 handset will feature a 1.4 Ghz processor and support NFC.
They also mention the device has a 3.7 inch screen, making it likely they are talking about the rumoured Samsung Omnia W, which according to earlier leaks have a 512 Mb RAM, 3.7 inch screen, and 5 megapixel camera, decidedly low-end specs for 2011, not to mention 2012.
Having a 1.4 Ghz processor and NFC will go some way to make up for it, and if it is wrapped up in a sleek and slim shell it may well be a worthy successor for the Samsung Omnia 7 after all.

Rumors say the next Apple iPhone will have a metal back, small screen
Like UnlikeFiled in: Cell PhonesAppleiPhone 4s
By this time next month we’ll know either: 1) The exact specifications of Apple’s next generation iPhone, including pricing information and availability or 2) The date when Apple plans to unveil said iPhone. Until either of those two events happen however, it’s going to be rumor madness until the final moment. The latest iPhone rumor, courtesy of Taiwanese news site Digitimes, who has an above average track record of getting these things right, says that the iPhone 5, or iPhone 4S, whatever it’s going to be called, will have a metal back, replacing the fragile glass that many iPhone 4 users have accidentally destroyed, this writer included. It’s also now been predicted that the next iPhone w...
