Editorial: Is Samsung innovative or just riding coat tails?

June 27th, 2012 Andrew Campbell

It’s been all over the web, all over the news and all over the face of the planet.  Apple is consistently suing Samsung for patent this or that (and winning).  It begs to ask the question “Is Samsung innovative or just riding coat tails?”  We all know the Apple brand, we see the fan boys arriving in droves to the newest and greatest release.  While I am an Android Nerd and have been for over a year – after leaving BlackBerry for a superior product – I can’t help but wonder what is Samsung thinking?

StraightTalk To Add Verizon-Powered LG Enlighten Android Smartphone

June 25th, 2012 Andrew Campbell

StraightTalk, one of the most popular pre-paid outfits, is adding another Android to its current lineup.  This coming about 2 weeks after they released the Proclaim.  The Proclaim has been a very popular phone (since root was found) and has unexpectedly sold out online.  The LG Enlighten is a very entry-level phone and the second Verizon-powered at that.  Seems they are moving away from Sprint-powered phones due to quality issues.

The Enlighten as launched on Verizon last year features Android Gingerbread, a 3.5 inch display and a sliding hardware QWERTY keyboard underpinned by an 800MHz Qualcomm Scorpion processor based off of the higher-end Snapdragon core with full support for Flash 10 despite Adobe abandoning further development for mobile devices.

Review: Qmadix Boostpac Eclipse

June 17th, 2012 Andrew Campbell

As a cell phone power user I always find my battery not lasting as long as I would like it to.  Solution – extended battery.  There is a great advantage to having an extended battery; obviously the added life to your phone and you have an additional battery since you had to buy the extended one.  There is also a downfall to this; if you have a non-removable battery, you don’t get the option of the extended battery purchase.  Hit the break for the full in-depth review of this battery pack.
