Is it Christmas? Samsung’s brought a turkey [Samsung Galaxy (again)]

by Ben Smith 8th October 2009

by Ben Smith 28th September 2009

Within seconds of its announcement I knew I wouldn’t be buying Motorola’s new DEXT (CLIQ in the US) Android handset, however exciting their social aggregation platform BLUR looked. It’s an exclusive to Orange at launch…
However, it is an important release…
For Android-fans (that’s me) handset choices have been far too limited. HTC’s build quality has been [...]

by Ben Smith 21st September 2009

I’d been looking forward to seeing the Samsung Galaxy for some time…
Having fallen in-love with Android on my G1, but out of love with its poor build quality and chunky dimensions HTC’s Hero was looking like the only option for a better-made, better-specified device (until LG and Motorola’s announcements last week) and even that was [...]

The Million project; a Marketer’s dream come true

by Vikki Chowney 15th August 2009

Vikki Chowney: Samsung’s NC10 netbook on O2

by Vikki Chowney 26th April 2009

Originally published on BitchBuzz.com, Vikki Chowney takes a look at Samsung’s smash-hit netbook.
I’ve been a fan of the very light, super-transportable netbook for some time, and in my last review back in December, I looked at Vodafone’s Dell Inspiron 9. It’s the perfect size for instant access when travelling and though I still use a [...]
