The Samsung Steel – exclusively on Vodafone this June
Another shiny metal slider, kind of similar to the old (three months is a lifetime in the phone world) Samsung Soul – but changing the specs to give it a slightly more obvious multimedia angle.
On the HARD FACTS side of things, the Steel has a 2.2″ screen, does HSDPA for better web speeds if you’re facing in the right direction and standing on something high enough to get a good reception, plus there’s a 3megapixel…

CECT Wrist – Casio G-Shock crossed with iPhone
The CECT Wrist is out now. Out now for actual buying. It exists. The watch phone dream has been MADE REAL! You can, if you have about 150 pounds to spare, buy one today. For delivery in however long it takes stuff to get to where you live from wherever Specialphones.eu is based.
The CECT has had a rather sizeable – and successful, if you ask us – redesign since is was first revealed, with its initial gaudy selection of low-grade plastics now replaced by…
UK mobile phone call costs could fall as tribunal investigates
The high cost of calling to and between mobile phones could drop in the future thanks to investigations by the Competition Appeal Tribunal (CAT).
The CAT found that Ofcom’s calculation of how much it should cost to call a mobile phone from a landline is still too high, something that BT agrees with, claiming consumers are overcharged £1bn each year…
Samsung launches F480 'Touchwiz' handset in Europe
Another day, another iPhone wannabe, this time from Samsung with its F480 ‘Touchwiz’ handset, which is heading to Europe…
Mobile phone projectors COMING SOON – Texas Instruments says end of 2008
Awesome. Just what we need. Another XXXXing way for XXXing inconsiderate complete XXXing XXXXs to XXXXing invade our XXXXing personal XXXXing space while on the XXXXing bus. Or on the XXXXing tube.
As if the tinny sounds of MP3s ringing out of cheap Chinese speakers everywhere you go nowadays wasn’t bad enough, Texas Instruments is about to UNLEASH HELL – and bring fully-functional projection cameras to mobile phones before the end of 2008.
John Van Scoter, company senior vice president of TI’s projection business, reckons that companies are already building devices using the TI Pico projector – and they’ll be ready…
Will Christian Dior be joining the hordes of fashion labels, and produce a mobile phone?
You’re not a proper fashion designer unless you’ve tried your hand at designing a mobile phone (see: Motorola and Dolce & Gabbana, LG and Prada, Samsung and Armani amongst others), and considering Dior is one of those labels even your accountant has heard of, it’s surprising we’re only hearing about a possible product launch this year.
The above blingtastic handset has been shown over at Engadget Mobile, although little else is known about it. Swarovski crystals are a go-go, however, according to the photo, as well as its own…remote control….
Shiny Video Review: Sony Ericsson K660i
Slightly more upmarket than the G502 that we had a look at this morning, the K660i also has HSDPA connectivity, and comes in a lovely black and pink, or white and lime green colour choice…
Shiny Video Preview: Sony Ericsson G502 HSDPA mobile
The G502 was announced by Sony Ericsson a couple of weeks ago, but I managed to get my hands on a preview model just two days later. It’s being dubbed as the ‘most affordable HSDPA phone ever’, and should make the average consumer quite happy, with Google Maps, push email, a 2.0-megapixel camera, media player and the usual Bluetooth technology….
HTC Diamond Vs. Apple iPhone – the ultimate specs comparison
The Touch Diamond handset was announced on Tuesday by HTC, and as expected, every blog and newspaper is calling it the first real ‘iPhone killer’. And here was me thinking we’d expired that term!
Obviously, the Diamond and iPhone have some similarities (even hired similar hand-models!), but the main difference which is dividing everyone’s affections boils down to the original format wars – Mac vs. PC. Want a concise break-down of the pros and cons of each mobile? Whoomp, there it is – below the jump…
