Samsung, like Sony Ericsson and Nokia, had a press event today in Barcelona to kick off the opening of Mobile World Congress. And like SE, Samsung had a few surprises in store for those who came. The first was the next version of the highly successful Galaxy S. That smartphone has sold over 10 million units worldwide, and Samsung (along with...
AT&T will begin selling iPad accessories at 50 percent off, starting Sunday, Feb. 13. As noted by BGR, this could be a suspicious turn of events: AT&T doesn’t usually put items on clearance sales unless a replacement is near. The timing seems in-line with reports that Apple will be announcing the iPad 2 before the end of the...
It's the next Galaxy Tab! That's right, the next Galaxy Tab was introduced today at Mobile World Congress in Barcelona, and unlike the original, this one will use a 10.1" display. It's hard to say if Samsung felt that a 10.1" panel was superior to the 7" one that they used in the existing Tab, but either way, there's a bigger screen being...
Sony Ericsson really came to play at this year's Mobile World Congress. On top of the Xperia Pro and the PlayStation Phone (which isn't actually called that, for whatever reason!), the Xperia Neo was also unveiled. It's an interesting play for SE. It's basically an Xperia Arc, but with slightly lower-end features. We're guessing this will...
The world’s first PlayStation certified smartphone is a reality. Sony Ercisson officially revealed today in Barcelona a phone that the world has known about for months: the Xperia Play. It's odd that SE isn't just calling this the PlayStation Phone (or the PSP Phone), because that's pretty much exactly what it is. This device is what...
Mobile World Congress is underway in Spain, and already new mobile products are flowing. One of the ones that Sony Ericsson managed to keep under wraps until the show is the Xperia Pro, launching for the first time in Barcelona. It's a pretty big phone, with a full QWERTY slide-out keyboard for those who prefer real keys over virtual, on-screen...
Think tablets are the main score in 2011? We're actually guessing that mobile devices in general will have a banner year this year, and none of that will be possible without advanced mobile graphics. The NVIDIA Ion GPU has changed the landscape and expectations for graphical performance on the mobile side, and this year NVIDIA is apt to have...
AC Ryan may not have the name recognition of Western Digital or Seagate in the media player industry, but with the explosion of digital content, lots of smaller companies are able to get in while the market's hot. This is an example of one of those companies taking advantage. The Playon!HD2 and Playon!HD Mini 2 were both announced a few months...
It's that time again folks! In conjunction with our friends at OCZ, Intel, WD, Gigabyte, and Xigmatek, we have assembled another <HOT> rig to give away this month! We're announcing a new sweepstakes where you could win a full Intel Core i7-870-based system, complete with a Radeon HD 6870 graphics card, some super-fast DDR3 RAM, an OCZ...
One of the reasons that Nokia decided to partner with Microsoft to embed Windows Phone 7 into future Nokia handsets was this: there's too big a risk for phones to become "commoditized" with Android. In other words, Android phones are a dime a dozen, and just about anyone can build one. Nokia simply didn't want to become "one of the crowd,"...
Are you a hardcore overclocker? Do you never settle for factory, always pushing your gear to the absolute limit? If so, this record will most likely interest you. The Corsair Dominator GT was just used in a world record breaking journey. The DDR3 memory was the memory of choice when used to shatter the MaxxMem benchmark record with Intel's...
One of the most overlooked video display devices out there is the projector. Compared to HDTVs, they simply get no love whatsoever. But for anyone who has had the privilege of using one, it's a pretty remarkable experience. A far bigger image, way better for movies and way better for immersion. Acer spends most of their time producing notebooks...
If you own Seagate's GoFlex TV or FreeAgent Theater+ HD media player, and you also enjoy using your iPad, iPhone or iPod touch, there' a new control app that you should consider. For now, the only real way to control either of those boxes is with the remote that ships inside of the box. But that's a hassle. Why not use a device you already...
Believe it or not, we have actually heard of a quad-channel USB 3.0 stick before. They certainly aren't "everywhere" yet, but they're becoming increasingly popular as more and more notebooks start to ship with USB 3.0 ports. Sharkoon, an accessories and peripherals company, has just introduced their newest USB stick, a USB 3.0 device that...
