Some sites just treat mobile devices like crap. In a new blog post, Google discusses two mistakes that some sites still make when dealing with mobile devices, and we all know how it feels like. The first issue they discuss is explained in the photo above. When you click on any specific part of a site, and it notices you’re on mobile, it redirects you to… Read more
As you’ve probably noticed, we haven’t had any Intel powered Android phones in the US. Europe got the Motorola RAZR i (the Intel brother of the RAZR M), along with other not so well known devices. There are also quite a few Intel smartphones announced to come out internationally, but it doesn’t seem like any plans have been made to bring them to the US…. Read more
G-Project has made some fantastic products for even better price tags (and our reviews really show that), but their latest duo of speakers is made for the budget crowd. They have announced both the G-ZIP and the G-POP, two tiny speakers ideal for traveling and portability. The G-ZIP retails for only $20 and has a retractable 3.5mm cable. The G-POP is… Read more
Intel has been pushing their way into the mobile processor game, and they took MWC as an opportunity to talk about their current line of mobile chips. The dual core Atom Z2420 has a 32nm architecture and can be clocked all the way up to 2 GHz. Now, if you just scoff at the mention of dual cores, remember that x86 and ARM chips are different beasts and… Read more
Mobile payments are the future, but they are still so unpopular. Google Wallet has been a push for NFC payments, but being restricted to a handful of devices really doesn’t help. There are a few Google Wallet competitors out there, but none of them are widespread. Carrier-friendly system Isis is coming eventually, and now we have a new Visa/Samsung… Read more
Ubuntu has been working hard on their mobile OS, showing off the software on the Galaxy Nexus not long ago. Developers will soon be able to get a taste of it soon, namely February 21st, with the developer preview. On that day, Canonical will release builds of their OS for both the Galaxy Nexus and Nexus 4 (we’re glad to see the Nexus 4 being included,… Read more
Skype is advertising a new feature lately called video messaging. Unlike video calling, video messaging is recording videos (up to three minutes long) and sending them to a person. So it is to video calling what texting is to instant messaging. It’s a pretty good idea, a more personal way of talking to someone when both parties can’t sit down for a long… Read more
HTC and Sony have had a deal for awhile that allows select HTC devices to access the PlayStation mobile app store. Well, it looks like a few more devices have been added to the list. Sony has added three new HTC devices, the One XL (Snapdragon S4 North American variant of the One X), One X + and EVO 4G LTE. This adds to the already present list of the… Read more
Pandora has been testing their service in Australia and New Zealand for a while, but it has never been accessible outside of a web browser. Today, people in those two countries can make accounts and use Pandora anywhere. This includes the mobile apps, which Pandora says account for 75% of their traffic in the US. This is big news, as these two countries… Read more
This is the Archos GamePad, newly released in Europe. We just covered it and talked about its features. Like I said in the earlier article, it seems like a mid end device with a controller bolted onto it, nothing special and definitely nothing revolutionary. That’s purely first impression, of course. Because if you look a little deeper, Archos may have… Read more
