At the MWC, the korean company showed us an updated version which does not only look more sexy but it also seems matured. Read on for the spec list and pics!

HTC's first quad-core device - the HTC One X

At Mobile World Congress, HTC introduced a new lineup of smartphones - called "One". The most high-end device of them is called the HTC One X. Aside from amazing specs you can read below, it also sports some new specialities like shooting full-size pictures while recrding in 1080p and a LED flash with support for 5 levels of automatic brightness control.

Samsung unveils Galaxy Tab 2 (10.1)

Mobile World Congress hasn't even officially started but some companies have already shown us something new. One of them is Samsung with its Galaxy Tab 2 (10.1). As the name suggests, it's the successor to the original Galaxy Tab 10.1. Go ahead to find out what's changed.

CG presents... Galaxy Nexus - Google's newest flagship!

Here it is! Google's brand-new smartphone hits the shelves! After the Nexus One (built by HTC) and the Nexus S (built by Samsung) it's the third device of Google's "Nexus" series and as the name "Galaxy" suggests, this one is again built by Samsung. So, what's special/new about it? Well, there are two things that come straight to my mind.

First: Ice Cream Sandwich. It's the first device with the newest version of Android (4.0).

Second: Super AMOLED HD. The Nexus' display features a resolution of 1280x720 pixels which brings us to a pixel density of 316 ppi (pixels per inch). That is the highest ppi of any smartphone over 4'' (sorry iPhone).

Read on for a full spec list, some pictures and our hands-on video of the device.

CG presents... MustHave Game - Sonic CD

Hi folks! Some months ago, we introduced the "MustHave Apps". Remember?

Now it is time for something new: The "MustHave Games". As the name suggests, we will present you an actual game of which we believe it is worth buying and, of course, playing. Our first episode is about one of the world's best-known video game characters ever. He is called Sonic, Sega's mascot!

Looks like Acer is gonna be the first release a tablet with the long anticipated Full HD resolution (1920x1200 in this case). And not only that. It'll also be powered by NVIDIA'S newest Tegra 3 processor (quad-core).

CG presents... MustHave App - UberMusic

Ever thought about bying a WP7 device only because of its snappy and beautiful music player called Zune? Well, I did. Even though I prefer Android most of the times, I've always been keen on Zune with its slick UI. If there was just a way to get Zune on Android...

Google is starting to roll out ICS for the Nexus S!

Jep, since yesterday, Google has finally started to roll out the latest version of Android! They are planning to upgrade the Nexus S devices in the next four weeks. Surprisingly, the version will not be 4.0, but the latest, 4.0.3, which is not even running on the Galaxy Nexus. But there is also a problem, though.

CG presents... the Galaxy Note from Samsung!

In the last two years, tablets achieved great success, not only because the iPads were released, but also Samsung with its Galaxy series contributed a lot. 

About three and a half months ago, we reported about Samsung's plan to build a device which should close the gap between a smartphone and a tablet. And yes, they did not only manage to produce it, but also to create a new “Smarttablet” experience. The name of its device: Galaxy Note!

CG presents... the new Motorola RAZR!

"Hello Moto". Not too long ago, when we heard those two words, we were instinctive thinking about a phone that just blew everyone's mind with its thinness, extremely good build quality and an amazing design: the origninal Motorola RAZR.

It's been seven years now since it launched back in 2004. In the meantime, Motorola released a few other models of the RAZR family - but none of them could really live up to the success of their predecessor. To our mind, that's about to change! Go ahead to watch our hands-on of the 2011 Motorola RAZR.

Kindle Fire: the iPad's hardest competitor!

If you compare the market share of all available Android-tablets to the iPad's, the result is pretty disillusioning. Even though Apple sells only the iPad and the iPad 2 and there are like 20 Android tablets available, Apple still has a market share 65.6 %.

Apparently, Android is going to have a slow start in that department - just like it did back in 2008 with the smartphones. But thankfully - for all Android lovers at least - one tablet gives us hope: it's Amazon's Kindle Fire. Read on to find out why.

CG presents... MustHave App - RepliGo Reader

Comeback of the year: The new Motorola Droid RAZR is out! (UPDATE!)

It is the comeback of the year! Some hours ago, Motorola demonstrated their newest smartphone: the Motorola Droid RAZR! Wait...RAZR?! Aren't they those legendary flip-out phones? Jep, 1000 points!

Asus EeePad Slider - this month in the USA!

To us, it seems like forever since the Asus Silder was announced at the CES in Las Vegas. And if you look at the date, we're not so wrong with that. The CES took place in January, which means we've been waiting for eight months now. Why we're telling you this, now? Well, because we finally see a light at the end of the tunnel. It has been assured, that the device will ship at the end of September. Read on for the pricing and - in case you don't know them already - the specs.

Galaxy Note - higher resolution than stated!

Earlier, we mentioned in our report of the Samsung Galaxy Note that it would sport only a resolution of 800x480 pixels. Given the fact that this would mean a very low pixel density, we were kind of disappointed! But now we've been told something completely different: The Galaxy Note will be shipped with an amazing resolution of 1280x800 pixels. This results in a pixel density of 285 PPI (pixels per inch), which literally blows my mind. Sorry Samsung for spreading the news that this device would only have WVGA.

Further on, Samsung released the first spot of the Note. Watch and enjoy!
