bModo 12G Windows 7 tablet gets video demo

, Jan 21st 2011 Discuss [1]

With the tablet torrent at CES 2011 we'll admit to having forgotten about bModo's 12G tablet, announced in October last year, but the 11.6-inch Windows 7 slate has now shown up for a full review. AllTouchTablet picked up the $849.99 slate - which runs a 1.66GHz Intel Atom N450 single-core CPU with 2GB of RAM and Broadcom's CrystalHD video accelerator - and found the Windows experience to be pretty solid, with media playback impressing.

Sony Ericsson Vivaz 2 (aka Hallon) gets pre-announce preview

, Jan 20th 2011 Discuss [0]

Sony Ericsson's XPERIA Arc may be the company's most eye-catching smartphone for the first half of 2011, but going by an early preview it might not be the best selling if the mid-range Vivaz 2 has anything to say about it. Mobile-Review has been putting a prototype Vivaz 2 - aka the Sony Ericsson Hallon or MT15i - through its paces, and finding it's far more than just a Vivaz with Symbian swapped for Android 2.3 Gingerbread.

Nexus S Reviewed by TechCrunch

, Dec 6th 2010 Discuss [9]

Focus between the latest two Android-specific announcements from Google, and Samsung, has been torn between the hardware side of things, and the software. While Google announced that the Android 2.3 SDK was available now for developers to download, they also announced in tandem with Samsung that the first Android 2.3-based device would be launching on December 16th, called the Nexus S. It's a smartphone that, unlike the Nexus One before it, wasn't necessarily built from the ground-up for this unveiling, but that's not a bad thing, as the Galaxy S lineage of devices is a great base to improve off.

Kingston 32GB MicroSDHC Class 4 Review

, Nov 17th 2010 Discuss [4]

If there’s one thing we’re used to seeing on mobile devices of late, it’s “microSD cards up to 32GB supported.” Problem is, when it actually comes to fitting maximum-size microSDHC cards inside, your choices have been relatively limited and generally expensive. Kingston is aiming to change that, with a 32GB Class 4 memory card that promises both performance and a sub-$100 street price. Is this the card your smartphone has been waiting for?

Verizon Galaxy Tab Review

, Nov 15th 2010 Discuss [14]

You can’t accuse Samsung of lacking ambition with their recent mobile device launches. After pushing out versions of the Galaxy S across all the major US carriers, they’re doing the same with the Samsung Galaxy Tab. We’ve already looked at the original European and T-Mobile USA versions of the 7-inch Froyo slate; now it’s the Verizon Wireless model on the SlashGear test bench. Read on for the full review.

LG E2360V LED Display Review

, Nov 15th 2010 Discuss [4]

The new LG E2360V, the company would like us to believe, ticks not just one but three categories: it’s a Full HD panel, for entertainment, it’s fashionably slim, at just 12.9mm thick, and it’s also got some decent environmental credentials too. Still, at around $300 it’s not a cheap display, so how does the reality live up to the PR hype? Check out the SlashGear review after the cut.

T-Mobile Samsung Tab Review

, Nov 14th 2010 Discuss [33]

Samsung’s Galaxy Tab is beginning its staggered rollout across the US carriers, and T-Mobile has been the first to make its play. We’ve already comprehensively reviewed the European version of the Galaxy Tab and Verizon Galaxy Tab, finding it an interesting – if expensive – alternative to the iPad; however, the North American models (and the T-Mobile version in particular) differ from what’s on sale in Europe. Read on for our T-Mobile Galaxy Tab review.

Gateway ID49C Review

, Nov 11th 2010 Discuss [0]

Gateway has built a reputation on affordable machines with solid specifications, but the company’s new ID49C aims a little higher than the mainstream. With a lick of aluminum and an eye-catching backlit glass trackpad, there’s more to the ID49 than just its Core i5 processor. Has Gateway done enough to lift the ID49 above its 14-inch competition? Check out the full SlashGear review after the cut.

, Nov 7th 2010 Discuss [1]

Hey gang, welcome back to another installment of the SlashGear Week in Review. The Samsung Galaxy Tab hit the UK this week starting at £99.99 with a new contract or £529.99 sans contract.

Acer Aspire 8943G Review

, Nov 4th 2010 Discuss [5]

Acer’s Aspire 8943G notebook is about as far from the company’s budget netbooks as you could get in a computer and yet still have a battery. A sizeable desktop replacement, with slick, minimalist design and high quality materials, the Aspire 8943G doesn’t stint on specifications, either, with an Intel Core i7 CPU and lashings of RAM. Can an Acer PC really compete, not just on performance but aesthetics too, with Apple’s well-esteemed MacBook Pro line? Check out the full SlashGear review after the cut.

HTC 7 Surround Review

, Oct 20th 2010 Discuss [2]

HTC’s play for the Windows Phone 7 market is arguably stronger in Europe, at least at launch, but that doesn’t mean the company has forgotten North America. The HTC 7 Surround joins the Samsung Focus on AT&T, launching with the US carrier as the HTC Surround, and will also cross the border to Canadian carrier Telus.

Acer Predator AG5900 Review

, Oct 17th 2010 Discuss [6]

We’ve had our fair share of beastly desktops on the SlashGear test bench, but the Acer Predator AG5900-U3092 probably has the most distinctive design. Etched with bright orange pinstripes, the new Predator is pretty striking for its internal components too: an Intel Core i7 chip, fast ATI graphics and more. Check out the full SlashGear review of this $1,350 gaming PC after the cut.
