The history of the Nexus brand has always been very solid. One device a year, sold in one style with unlimited potential. Samsung doesn’t seem to think it should be limited to just one look though. They have been on a  whitewashing bender lately, pushing out white variants to the Galaxy S II on...

I don’t know what it is about this device that is so pleasing. It is to big, in my opinion, to be a phone. Yet, it is too small to be considered a tablet. The newly tossed around name for such an odd size is ‘Phablet’. Which is rather fitting. If any other company had done something...

And the Galaxy S III leaks just keep on coming! Just yesterday we reported that the Samsung Galaxy S III would be revealed at Mobile World Congress 2012 in February and today we have a leaked picture taken with a Samsung Galaxy S III to go along with it. According to European site EuroDroid, a device...

  Samsung and Apple just keep going back and forth, with their lawsuits on their patents, but it seems like Apple always strikes first. Unfortunately though, Apple gets to put a check mark in the win column this time. The U.S. Patent and Trademark Office has awarded Apple a patent for their “core...

Rumors and speculation of new devices can get a little hairy at times. I think it is late enough in the year and close enough to Mobile World Congress to toss out a little hope though. Last year at MWC Samsung showed off the Galaxy S II. It, of course, was a huge hit and continues to be around the world....

I remember back when I worked at T-Mobile I had a number of people wanting to get a second SIM card so they could have a work number and a personal number. Of course that just wasn’t possible back then, or technically now without an app or call forwarding. To add more fuel to the fire, switching...

Samsung has apparently put Ice Cream Sandwich back in the deep freeze for the Galaxy S and the original Galaxy Tab and wait for it; because of TouchWiz! That’s right folks it seems that the layering TouchWiz over Android 4.0 causes the Galaxy S and Galaxy tab 7 inch to run too poorly to consider...

The battle for design infringement has raged across the globe this year. Fortunately for Samsung a German judge has said that the changes they made to its exterior design are different enough from Apple’s iPad. (Top image is new version) From what I can tell they wrapped the metal trim, that normally...

Everyone loves some free stuff right? Especially around the holidays when the bank account is at an all time low. Samsung is currently running a 2 month-long promo called “Get Best Games for FREE!” Not the their most brilliant promotional name, but it works. If you happen to own one of the...

I’ve just started really playing with the Samsung Galaxy Nexus from Verizon and I wanted to start by posting a few video camera samples using all threee resolutions available; 1080p, 720p and 480p.  As you are probably aware, Samsung decided to include a 5mp Camera into the Galaxy Nexus, whereas...

We’ve all gone through the dilemma of painful battery life on our Android devices. You root your device just install a custom ROM from one of the awesome developers in the community simply to get battery life from the optimized kernels. But the question that is asked time and time again is Why...

According to Pocketnow, AT&T will be landing the Samsung Galaxy Note sometime early next year. Labeled simply as the SGH-I717. The Note will incorporate the same 5.3-inch display with a 1280X800 resolution and still have all the functionality that makes this tabphone awesome. Reports are coming in...

Let’s talk CES for just a minute. If you’re unfamiliar, CES stands for Consumer Electronics Show. It’s the largest electronics trade show known to man. First held in 1967, the event, which is not open to the public, is held annually in the Las Vegas Convention Center and sees about...

The new SuperPhone from the guys over at Google, the Samsung Galaxy Nexus has launched on the Verizon network and you can pick one up for a huge discount through the AndroidSPIN Cellphone Store. [quote]The Galaxy Nexus for Verizon Wireless is the first handset...

  Samsung appears to be enjoying poking fun at the iPhone faithful with their latest Galaxy S II ad campaign. In this newest Samsung video, the target is movies and music using  iCloud.  The video starts off  showing iPhone fans waiting in line again as the SGS2 guy approaches the topic is...
