Samsung Vibrant [T-Mobile] Questions & Requests

John Walton — Sun, 01 Aug 2010 18:24:00 +0000

Well, my time with Magenta's flavor of the Galaxy S has come to an end. I enjoyed my time with the phone and am impressed with Samsung's deliberate and dramatic 180 on the Android stage. But, as stunning as the device is in terms of specs, UI, display, and overall "wow," I still see room for improvement in the chasis department. I guess Sammy still has some... Read more

myTouch 3G Slide photo and video samples

John Walton — Sat, 19 Jun 2010 18:29:07 +0000

It seems like photo and video samples are one of the more popular requests I've been receiving lately. And after posting photo and video samples from T-Mobile's Garminfone yesterday, a number of you contacted me indicating that you want more samples under a wider variety of conditions on future posts. I was also told that my videos need more sound. Well,... Read more

T-Mobile Garminfone photo and video samples

John Walton — Fri, 18 Jun 2010 18:44:13 +0000

I've been receiving quite a few requests for photo and video samples from T-Mobile's Garminfone, and no wonder; it's packing a 3.15MP cam with no flash and the highest resolution video it captures is 320 X 240. Can this thing compete on the photo front with even low end feature phones in today's market? Well, my answer is yes for sharing still photos but... Read more

New server, new life

John Walton — Sun, 13 Jun 2010 15:08:53 +0000

The first thing I need to say here is thank you, readers, for your patience regarding DroidDog's recent server troubles. If you are a regular visitor to the site, there's a good chance you've come across an error while browsing our pages in the last few months; most likely indicating a problem establishing a database connection. Or, you've seen the "no... Read more

Here is my first video response to your questions and requests regarding HTC's myTouch 3g Slide. As I explain in the video introduction, I haven't received as many questions and requests on this device as I have on others. However, I do have enough for a very short second video, if nothing else. Go ahead and send in your questions and requests by texting me... Read more

HTC Droid Incredible: your questions and requests

John Walton — Thu, 27 May 2010 21:54:07 +0000

I just finished up a month with HTC's Droid Incredible as my primary device and it's time for another set of Questions and Requests videos! I always enjoy reading and answering your messages for these, and I wish I could have taken a few more for this stunning Verizon beast. A recent move (a pretty big one) cut my work time short for a couple of weeks, so... Read more

LG Ally [Verizon] full video review

Breon Nagy — Mon, 17 May 2010 13:39:18 +0000

Df_nWpwdTmk A lot of video hit the cutting room floor, due to the YouTube ten minute time limit. Much of what I cut was answers to specific questions. I want to answer your questions, so I'm going to piece together the excess footage. I won't be able to record any new video, so I apologize if you're question doesn't get answered visually. The...

Sometimes it’s good to be in the Doghouse

Breon Nagy — Sun, 18 Apr 2010 03:54:26 +0000

Actually, the only part that is remotely true is "News Editor" (a boy can dream). So grab a napkin, because I'll be feeding your maw with tons Android news and... Read more

Sony Ericsson X10 camera review, final Q&A

John Walton — Sat, 03 Apr 2010 05:35:44 +0000

This is the one I've been looking forward to. At times (due largely to buggy software that drapes a layer of meh atop what I suspect could be a great experience), Sony Ericsson's XPERIA X10 feels like a camera with a phone rather than a phone with a camera. In the video below I wrap up my *video* responses (more written to come) to your questions and... Read more
