HTC HD7 Review

 The last Windows Phone 7 device we reviewed, HTC Mozart, left us highly disappointed. Although the hardware was quite decent, the software failed to impress us. Apart from being slick and visually appealing, it had little more to offer, whether it was in terms of built-in features or third party applications. In the light of such strong competition from Apple and Google, Microsoft's latest offering just comes across as an incomplete package with a large "Work In Progress" sign over it.   Today, we have another Windows Phone 7 device with us and it's called the HTC HD7.

Nokia X3 Touch and Type Review

Nokia might be selling a lot of smartphones but their primary product continues to be the cheaper Series 40 phones. But despite that Nokia never thought of bringing S40 up to speed compared to its rivals.

Samsung Galaxy S LCD GT-I9003 Review

Samsung Galaxy S GT-I9003 is branded for India as Galaxy S LCD 4GB but elsewhere it is available as Galaxy SL (16GB version). Personally, I would call it a toned down substitute of Galaxy S I9000. It indeed was surprising to see this version out so late and almost a year after the launch of Galaxy S I9000 handset.

Samsung has introduced this new Galaxy S LCD 4GB loaded with Android 2.2.1 Froyo by default. Despite clear technical differences...

Samsung S8530 Wave II Review

When we reviewed the original Samsung Wave, we were greatly impressed by the overall performance of the phone. But what we really liked about that phone was that despite the laundry list of features that it had, it was quite affordable. Due to shortage of its Super AMOLED displays, Samsung had to discontinue that phone but since it was its flagship bada handset, it couldn't just let it go. So, in its place, comes the new Samsung S8530 Wave II.   The new phone brings some notable changes. First of all, the display is now bigger and instead of Super AMOLED, Samsung is now using...
