Earlier this morning, while we were all still asleep in our nice soft (or firm if you like it that way) beds, a pretty sweet concept, which is turning into a reality pretty quick was introduced. We’ve all seen the Motorola Atrix 4G, and the add-on dock that you can purchase with it; well ASUS [...]
I’m not sure how many times we’ve heard about the Motorola Droid X getting it’s well overdue Gingerbread update. Almost a month ago we posted news indicating that it was coming soon. The Gingerbread leaks have been around long before that if you didn’t mind rooting your phone. Now it’s official and you don’t have [...]
So, I know we have all been keeping a close eye out on what US Carriers will receive the Samsung Galaxy S2 (SGS2), and what their names will be as well as the features. Friday I received confirmation from my Sprint source that they will in fact be getting the Samsung Galaxy S2, and that the [...]

Our good friend David over at TMONews.com received an interesting screenshot today.

Earlier this morning the official twitter account for the @googlenexus put out a small notice that gets the curiosity flowing. They stated “We have a surprise for you today. Stay tuned!”.

According to well known Galaxy S developer supercurio via a s pecial source this could be likely. This means despite the controversy that surrounds Samsung, the future devices offered could be even more developer friendly.

Note: This article does not reflect the views of AndroidSPIN. Better late than never, and in a last ditch attempt to survive, Sony Ericsson decided to jump on the Android bandwagon and release their X10 range of phone this time last year (in the UK at least). It was announced in the previous November [...]
I am in SHOCK!!! I’m not joking, this amazes me. The first phone that was going to push the limits of what Android could be. The hardware sounded like it could easily have lounged at the top of the food chain but Sony Ericsson decided to launch it with a very outdated version of Android. [...]
An interesting comment that we touched on earlier, also contained the anonymous users views on hardware, quality, pricing, and functionality.
