To be frank, I just wrote an article about 2 minutes ago relating to Rogers plan deals. Usually I get sick of the same old crap, over and over again. But this is different because I can smell the Christmas tree already, and it looks like Virgin Mobile is baking the gingerbread cookies. That was lame...

I personally am not a big talker. Like many average Android users, I utilize text-messaging and data more than anything! But if you reside in Canada and need more “bang for your buck” when it comes to talk communication contracts, Rogers has you covered. Starting on November 7, cell customers...

The amount of iPhone replica’s the public  has seen is too many to count. The majority of these “clone” devices run crappy operating systems that often crash, or stop working. It is really the test of time to see if the hardware, or software burns out first. Alongside the release...

If you have been waiting for a Motorola ATRIX HD but wanted to have the special “Developer Edition”, here is your shot! Though Motorola devices have been notoriously known to support locked bootloaders, the manufacturer decided that the device will follow the path of the RAZR M and RAZR HD. With...

It seems like the majority of articles I have been writing lately have been focused on the upcoming release of “mid-range and budget-range” Android smartphones. But when you think about it, those type of devices are more popular than ever. More families are focused on modern bang-for-your-buck...

Sony reminds me of the “Android Octomom”. The manufacturer has released a bunch of devices based on the Android OS and yet another one has popped up, this time on the Japanese carrier KDDI. That’s right, Sony’s “newborn” is known as the Xperia VL, a mid-ranged Android...

It looks like Sprint is hitting customers with more bargains, for a head start on the upcoming holiday season. To show the holiday cheer the carrier will soon be releasing the Galaxy S2 in a “Titanium Grey” color. So, is the body really made from titanium material? To my knowledge…no....

Nevertheless here at AndroidSPIN, we like to keep you informed with all the latest and greatest tech. This of course includes the newly released Sony Xperia...

I haven’t been the one to choose Sony-made phones. In fact, I have never owned a Sony branded smartphone. But those who carry the popular name really appreciate their devices, thanks to the beloved Xperia series. Though that “most” of the Sony products on the market are solidly built,...

Without the Millennium Falcon, it just wouldn’t be Star Wars. Han Solo’s vehicle of choice is an icon for all those who love the “Far, Far Away” series. More than that, the Falcon has created much success in the Lego franchise, and a variety of other games. In addition, the developers...

You know Bloomberg. It is renowned for being one of the most famous television stations that covers financial, economic, and business media 24 hours a day. Really though, it is a non-stop financial jamboree. They are even so nice to provide a “live broadcast” on their website for free. They...
