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... 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.

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!

Samsung Galaxy Note with 5.3" display unveiled!


Finally! We've got some informations about Samsung's fusion of a smartphone and a tablet. The picture above shows you the brand-new 5.3 inch monster - called the Galaxy Note. With a screen of this size, at the moment it's the only device worldwide blurring the lines between tablet and smartphone. The only clue we have, that it is indeed supposed to be more like a smartphone, is its software. It's running Android Gingerbread - the smartphone version of the OS - and not Honeycomb.
