Galaxy SIII, iPhone 5, HTC One X+ and 8X shootout
|
 When we look at the quality of recorded video on the Samsung Galaxy S III, Apple iPhone 5, HTC 8X and HTC One X+, the iPhone 5 comes out as winner, even if it's not by much. Runner-up is the Samsung Galaxy SIII, which has reduced sharpness when you enable image stabilisation. When it's turned off, the Galaxy SIII looks better, but then the footage is jerkier instead. The camera of the HTC 8X records very sharp but slightly dark video.

Samsung Galaxy Xcover review: robust smartphone
|
|
The Samsung Galaxy Xcover did not really manage to impress us. Granted, a rugged smartphone isn't judged by its performance, and the Xcover has been out for quite a while, but the performance is too mediocre to ignore it completely. The hands-on experience with this phone wasn't any better, we were not impressed by how slow everything went. Add to that the poor screen with low resolution and brightness, not to mention the viewing angles, we see no reason to not spend a little more money and instead buy the Sony Xperia Go. For slightly more you have durable phone that's more recent, performs better and has a much better display.

Samsung Galaxy S3 Mini – a small S3
|
|
The Samsung Galaxy S III Mini convinces as a smartphone. The hardware may not be the latest and the greatest, but it's powerful enough to ensure a smooth user experience. However, the 'S III' in the name creates expectations that aren't entirely met. Sure, the software and all the features are there, but the hardware just is a bit too underwhelming. Especially considering the £300 you'll reportedly be asked to pay for this device. If you're not particularly bothered by the software and all the interesting features it has to offer, then the Galaxy S Advance may be the better option for you. This has the same hardware, but doesn't give you the 'S III' look and feel. It is, however, cheaper than the Mini.

Samsung Galaxy Note II Review
|
|
The Samsung Galaxy Note II is big. Colossally big. It's important to get that description out of the way because anyone who sees or holds the Galaxy Note II will have no choice but to be taken aback by how large is the phone-meets-tablet.
The same predicament made doubters believe that the original Galaxy Note was too big to succeed, but millions of phones sold later, that proved to be a false prediction. The Galaxy Note II is a smooth and dynamic experience from top to bottom. It's probably too big as a phone or too small as a tablet for most, but many will find it's a comfortable compromise between the two form factors.

Motorola DROID RAZR MAXX HD Review
|
|
Take a look at a smartphone from a few years ago compared to something available today and you'll find a number of major differences. Screens, processors, operating systems and more are advancing at a breakneck speed. However, battery tech has been stuck moving at a relatively glacial pace, as evidenced by even some of the highest spec'ced smartphones of today struggling to make it through a full day of use. This is where Motorola stepped in with the original RAZR MAXX by infusing the DROID RAZR with a large battery to keep even the heaviest of power users satisfied. Fast forward to today and you'll see they're at it again with the Motorola DROID RAZR MAXX HD...

Samsung Galaxy Note 2 (16GB Sprint) Review @ TechReviewSource.com
|
|
With a fast quad-core processor, a big, gorgeous display, and features galore, the Samsung Galaxy Note II delivers everything a huge-screen smartphone should, but Sprint really needs to build out its LTE network. If you think other phones are too small, and prefer something big enough to double as a miniature tablet that (barely) fits in your pocket, the Galaxy Note II reigns supreme."

Pivos XIOS DS Media Player Review @MissingRemote

|
Have you ever wanted to play those games from your Android smartphone on your big screen? Pivos is relying on a significant amount of these types of users with the introduction of the Pivos XIOS DS. This is a tiny device which runs either a version of Android or Linux and is a crossbreed between being a media player and casual gaming device. With a retail price of $129 (street at the time of publishing around $99) the Pivos XIOS DS is priced higher than popular streamers such as the Roku or AppleTV, but do the extra capabilities of a fully connected Android device make it worthwhile? *"
