We’ve had an exciting couple of weeks with two of the most popular Android device manufacturers releasing their flagship devices: The HTC One and the Samsung Galaxy S 4. The One was able to get a little bit of head start on the S 4 being released on Friday, April 19th for Sprint and AT&T and T-Mobile only days later. This last weekend, the S 4… Read more
The HTC Butterfly saw some good success around the world, where it sold so well, HTC faced shortages. We’re guessing HTC wants to capitalize on that success, as chief marketing officer of HTC Ben Ho said that there will be a successor to the device. It will share the Butterfly name, but aside from that, we know nothing else. Not specs, not release date,… Read more
Though the Sony Xperia Z has just been released (and in only some parts of the world), we’re already hearing rumors of its successor. While not quite comforting for future Xperia Z owners, it’s still interesting to hear what’s in store for us. This new device, currently referred to as the Xperia C670X, will boast some high end specs that would be… Read more
Here is a great piece of news. The head of HTC UK and Ireland, Phil Roberson, had a briefing with Omio and they discussed the One lineup for 2013. We all wondered whether it would be a repeat of 2012. HTC promised to simplify the lineup with only three phones, yet managed to release three more One series devices before the year was over. It was a… Read more
A new rumor is claiming that the HTC M7 will be released as the HTC One. What a simple name, blending with their current One series but taking the crown without any meaningless suffixes. We love it. Of course, we don’t know if this is accurate, but we really hope it is. M7 sounds cool and all, but it’s only a codename. What do you guys think of the… Read more
The HTC DROID DNA is a pretty damn powerful phone, so we can assure anyone but the most hardcore of users or storage freaks that it is well worth the $200 price tag. It does come with a 5″ 1080p display and a Snapdragon S4 Pro quad core at 1.5GHz paired with 2GB of RAM. However, not everyone can afford a $200 phone. Amazon to the rescue! You can get… Read more
Along with the Huawei Ascend Mate, Huawei announced the Ascend D2 at CES 2013 yesterday. With a dense 5″ 1080p display similar to the DROID DNA, an in house 1.5GHz quad core, 2GB of RAM, a 3,000 mAh battery, 32GB of storage, and a 13MP camera, it’s looking to be quite a powerhouse. Here is Taylor from PhoneDog with his hands… Read more
The HTC DROID DNA might be HTC’s best device in a while, but it’s a Verizon only device. There is also the HTC J Butterfly for Japan, but Europe was left out. However, the HTC Deluxe seemed to be the answer, as the international model of the HTC DROID DNA. But in a strange twist of news, HTC Germany stated that the Deluxe will not be coming to Europe….

HTC and O2 have teamed up to reduce what may very well be unnecessary waste, and save a few bucks along the way. They claim that 70% of all phone buyers already have a wall charger, thus they will not be including one with their new HTC flagship. They’ll include a microUSB cable, but no wall adapter. This is what they had to say: “I have a simple… Read more
The Sony LT29i has been rumored for several months, but the new flagship phone has been left nameless until now. Sources familiar with the matter have confirmed that the Xperia GX-like variant will hit the market as the Sony Xperia TX. The company’s new naming scheme positions the TX above its mid-range Xperia T (LT30p) handset. If past leaks are… Read more
