We’ve just got hands on with the Motorola Xoom 2 Media Edition, a delightful new 8.2-inch Honeycomb tablet just launched today. While we’ve had our reservations about Honeycomb before, we like what we’re seeing here: could this be tiny tablet we’ve been looking for? Read on for the breakdown.
We’ve just got up close and personal with the Nokia Lumia 800 Windows Phone here at Nokia World in London, where CEO Stephen Elop described it as the first “real Windows Phone” – a slap in the mouth for HTC, Samsung and LG. But after playing with it today, we’re inclined to agree.
The HTC Sensation XL phone is here, and it’s the HTC Titan with Android we’ve been expecting for a few weeks now. It’s HTC’s big gamble against the iPhone 4S and whatever Samsung has up its sleeves for next week, and we got some hands on time with it earlier this week. Read on for our photos and thoughts: it’s not quite what you’d expect.
Here’s the HTC Sensation XE, HTC’s newest Android phone, in the flesh. We got hands on with it at Carphone Warehouse’s press event, held in conjunction with Best Buy, in London, and had a chance to try out its new Beats Audio sonic skills. Read on for our thoughts.
The Sony NEX-7 is the company’s latest attempt at taking on the Micro Four Thirds cameras from the likes of Olympus and Panasonic. It’s not on sale until the end of the year, but we got some hands on time with it today and took it for a spin. Check out our thoughts after the break.
Our favourite device of the show is unquestionably the beautiful Samsung Galaxy Tab 7.7. But our second? It’s not a phone, it’s not a tablet or a laptop, just a mere peripheral: the LG LSM-100 Scanner Mouse.
The Samsung Galaxy Note is certainly the oddest gadget we’ve seen so far at IFA 2011 in Berlin, an enormous 5.3-inch phone that comes with its own stylus, old school style. We grabbed it for a quick scribble: click to see the photos.
Android tablets are nice and all, and often quite a lot cheaper than the iPad. But they’ve never possessed the same lust-worthy aura, build quality and overall sexiness. Until now: the Samsung Galaxy Tab 7.7 has it in spades.
