Обзор PocketBook A10: планшет с имиджевыми свойствами

Когда звонит Цукерберг. Обзор смартфона HTC Salsa

Идея создания смартфона для Facebook давно лежала на поверхности, однако владельцы социальной сети до сих пор не имеют собственного устройства. Зато сторонние производители подсуетились, и в результате устройств, которые можно было бы назвать Facebook-смартфоном, сейчас уже достаточно. В их числе HTC Salsa, о котором сегодня и пойдет речь. Вы же ... Читать дальше

Samsung Captivate Glide review: Thumbs ready

The Samsung Captivate Glide for AT&T Wireless is long overdue. The market is brimming of dual-core Android devices and the slide-out QWERTY packing Samsung Captivate Glide has only just arrived. Interestingly enough, it’s been a relatively quiet year for the fans of the hardware QWERTY droids. The offerings are few, while the potential users are ... Читать дальше

Samsung Captivate Glide review

Reviewing the Samsung Captivate Glide right after the Samsung DoubleTime is a study in contrasts. The DoubleTime is outdated, slow, and ugly, while the Glide is modern, fast, and sleek. The natural successor to the Epic 4G, the Glide is a hybrid of the Galaxy S and Galaxy S II — it has a nice 4-inch Super AMOLED screen, an acceptably recent ... Читать дальше

Motorola Xyboard 8.2 review

The march of the Honeycomb tablets goes on, playing a tune that's starting to get a bit muted thanks to the promise of fresher beats coming from Ice Cream Sandwich. Still, there are plenty of ways for manufacturers to add their own bit of swing to the same 'ol song. Motorola, of course, paved the way for all these slates with the Xoom. It's hard ...

Samsung Series 7 Slate PC review

All quiet on the Windows 7 tablet front? Well, no, but we haven't exactly seen many shots fired lately. Sure, HP recently refreshed the Slate 500 with the Slate 2, but for the most part, products like this have been eclipsed by excitement around Windows 8. Of course, Redmond's tablet-friendly OS won't ship for another year, so for now tablet ... Читать дальше

Verizon Galaxy Nexus review

It's the Galaxy Nexus. It has LTE. It's the phone we've been waiting (and waiting) for. Sure, some of our more globe-trotting members of the staff were suitably sated by the HSPA+ version that shipped a few weeks ago, but the rest of us domestic types simply need more bandwidth. Or, at least, we like to think that we do, and this $300 ... Читать дальше

Galaxy Nexus review (Verizon LTE)

As you may know, I reviewed the Galaxy Nexus back on November 17th, when I was able to get my hands on the international, HSPA+ version of the phone. Verizon has finally released its 4G LTE version into American waters, and I've spent some time testing the variant. Overall, there are very few differences between the two models, and as such, much ... Читать дальше

Sony Tablet P review - Always know when to fold

Tablets, like smartphones, are ten a penny now. You can get a rubbish one for \xA380, or a really great one for \xA3400. They usually all look pretty much the same, are mostly either about 10- or 7-inches in size and are mostly comprised of a screen. The Sony Tablet P, on the other hand, offers something unique: a folding clam-shell design. The ... Читать дальше

Motorola DROID XYBOARD 8.2 Review

As we take a trip back down to memory lane with the Motorola XOOM, the very first device to feature Google’s pure tablet-optimized platform, we realize that things didn’t necessarily go as planned for the tablet. Besides the late incorporation of a 4G LTE radio, it was quickly overcome by other Honeycomb tablets that snatched the spotlight – like ... Читать дальше

Asus Eee Pad Transformer Prime

The Asus Eee Pad Transformer Prime isn’t a robot in disguise, but it does have a few tricks up its sleeve that any Autobot or Decepticon would be proud of. This new Transformer improves upon the original version from earlier this year, adds more power and funky new styling. But is this update worth the substantial price - it's more than a budget ...
