Tablet wars: the New iPad vs Asus Transformer Prime
Comparing the new iPad and the ASUS Transformer Prime (TL201) is a bit like watching two mighty gladiators in full combat.
Apple definitely gets the honours for taking tablets mainstream with the first iPad. When it came out, I worked on an HP TC1100, which is a smashing tablet which becomes a laptop computer with a keyboard and stylus, but back then no one was really interested. It's a fabulous machine which still works beautifully after six or seven years.
Although the ... -
Tiny Android PC sells for US$74
First we had the Rasberry PI, now there's the Smurf-sized, ultra-teeny Android PC and by our reckoning, it's no bigger than a USB drive.
We're fairly chuffed at the specs of this 3.5-inch PC. It has an AllWinner A10 single-core 1.5GHz ARM CPU, half a gig of RAM, a (pretty weak) Mali 400 GPU and an HDMI port for sound and picture.
There's also a USB 2.0 and a micro-USB port, as well as Wi-Fi. It seems pretty simple to run an OS ... -
Concept Instagram camera crosses over into our dimension
Except it's not called the "Instagram Camera". It's been named "Socialmatic" and it's as attractive as a tech sandwich can get. Mmmm... tech sandwich.
Antonio De Rosa is the inventor of Socialmatic, and we use 'inventor' very loosely as he scrounged the hardware stylings straight from the Instagram app icon. But look at the concept image of this beast. It's very iPhone sexy.
Let's see what Socialmatic can offer.
16GB storage, Wi-Fi and Bluetooth, 4:3 touchscreen (makes sense, the camera will be a ... -
Reason #57 to divorce your iPhone: Get Flipboard for Android now
Some time ago, iPhone users walked around haughtily brandishing their Instagrams and Flipboards, but no more. Instagram launched officially on Android recently and now Flipboard has leaked out too.
Flipboard was set to launch exclusively for the new, hyped-to-the-extreme (and then some), Samsung Galaxy S III, but it would be only a matter of days before the enterprising Android community skimmed the APK and released it into the wild.
Over at the XDA Developers forum, you can now download the APK to ... -
Netsurfer Touch review [Video]
The Netsurfer Touch. They call it the people's tablet, but is it the tablet that the people want, or need? Gearburn says "yes" so have a gander at our video to see what we think of this wallet-friendly, Android 2.3 tablet. It's a great tablet, and one of the first to come out of South Africa. There's plenty to love, but also a few niggling issues which really let down the overall package. Don't let that stop you from buying one ... -
Water-proof, life-proof: the Motorola Defy+ [Review]
When I first saw the Motorola Defy+, it was sitting in a glass of water. The poor phone hadn’t even been in the office for five minutes and it was already being tested to see if all of this “water tight” PR propaganda was true. It wasn’t immersed a meter deep for half an hour -- its advertised tolerance threshold -- but it survived nonetheless. Considering the fact that I’m still a bit upset that my last laptop was fatally ... -
Samsung denies India the Galaxy Nexus
The Galaxy Nexus won't be sold in India, with Twitter being the platform Samsung decides to break the bad news on. India seems like a strange country to isolate from Samsung's flagship Android 4.0 smartphone users. One user demanded an answer and Samsung shot back. @TifosoTuli The Galaxy Nexus will not be launched in India. Watch this space for the next big thing!— Samsung India (@Samsung_India) May 2, 2012 "Watch this space for the next big thing!" says Samsung. Well, the next ... -

A smartphone was launched with the power to bend metal with its very thoughts. The Galaxy S III is so powerful, if can power your househould with a single app. The S III is so fast that simply turning it on rips a wormhole in the fabric ... -
Samsung Galaxy S III rumour roundup
Thanks to the German branch of Amazon, there's a truck load of official (?) stats for the Galaxy S III, which is hopefully being released today. Let's dig in. According to the site, the screen is a 4.7-inch monster, which makes it 0.5-inches larger than the Galaxy Nexus S. It's a Super AMOLED screen, which is pretty much inline with how Samsung treats its top of the range smartphones. The S II and Nexus are part of the Super AMOLED and ... -
