Mobile Review : BlackBerry Bold 9790

BlackBerry may quietly (or perhaps not so quietly) be finessing its plans for world domination with its upcoming BBX handsets, but it's not letting the other operating system go to waste, with a stream of BB7 devices being churned out right now, among them the BlackBerry Bold 9790.

Up until now, the cock of the school has been the BlackBerry Bold 9900, the premium BB offering that showcased the then new BB7 OS and replacing the tired Bold 9700 and 9780 lines.



And we thought that was it. Until the BlackBerry Bold 9790 landed on our doormat, promising what appears to be the best bits of the 9900 in a shell that's like the lovechild of a Bold 9700 and a Curve 9360.

We're slightly unsure why it exists, since it's very similar in all but size to the Bold 9900 and makes it feel like RIM is over-saturating its own market here.

Mobile Review : Samsung Infuse 4G

[caption id="" align="aligncenter" width="247" caption="Samsung Infuse 4G"][/caption]

The Samsung Infuse 4G feels a bit like a phone with an identity crisis. It costs the same as the Epic 4G Touch, but is excluded from the Galaxy line. It's got a 4G right in the name, but it doesn't boast 4G speeds.

And at 4.5" it's also large enough to feel almost like a tablet - albeit one rocking the stale Froyo Android OS. But is it a good phone?

The first thing anyone will notice about the Samsung Infuse is its gargantuan 4.5" Super AMOLED display. Samsung is no stranger to large displays; its flagship Galaxy S2 rocks a 4.3" screen, and the Samsung Galaxy Note is actually, legitimately, a tablet-phone crossover poised to launch stateside in early 2012.

But no matter how its predecessors feel, the Samsung Infuse's large screen and small borders make it feel bigger than it actually is.


This is at least in part due to the phone's thickness and weight - at only 131g (less than .30 pounds) and 8.8mm at its thickest the Samsung Infuse is thinner and just about as light as the Samsung Epic 4G Touch.

Mobile Review : Motorola Razr XT910

The Razr brand of cellphones from Motorola has always been associated with style and sophistication. The lineup so far has had 3 phones – V3, V3i and Razr2 V8 – each of them loved for their design. After four years of the last RAZR phone, Motorola has now launched the RAZR XT910 – a smartphone that not just has a stunning design but also top-notch hardware.

At just 7.1mm, the RAZR XT910 is the slimmest smartphone currently available.

The Razr has a 4.3-inch capacitive touchscreen Super Amoled advanced display with a 540 x 960 pixel resolution. After Samsung, Motorola is the first one to use the Super AMOLED technology to power its display.

Mobile Review : Samsung Galaxy Nexus with full specification

The Galaxy Nexus is  better, faster and smarter than any other Android phone on the market.

Not that current Android phones fall short in machine power. Rather, much like the androids of the silver screen, the operating system has been the weak point. Previous versions of Android have lacked some intangible spark.

[caption id="" align="alignleft" width="425" caption="Samsung Galaxy Nexus"][/caption]

The smartphone runs Android 4.0, aka Ice Cream Sandwich, the latest iteration of Google’s mobile OS.

By using your thumb to slide the screen to the side in most native apps, you can bring up (and dismiss) these hidden menus. Pinch-to-zoom is incorporated more intuitively into apps, too. In the calendar, for example, reverse-pinching on a list of the whole day’s events zooms in on a specific block of hours. Touch-typing has also been revamped to receive user input more accurately.
