The EVO 4G in 2010 was a big deal for Sprint. Not only was it the first U.S. phone to offer WiMAX, but the device was also fast, beautiful and stood out as probably the best (at the time) Android smartphone on the market. But Sprint began to lose its way, resulting in a lull of

HTC One X Review – AT&T Gets a Winner
We fell in love with the international HTC One X and we’ve also just spent the past several days with AT&T’s 4G LTE model. There are few differences between the two phones; the most noticeable of which is AT&T’s decision to launch the One X with 4G LTE support and a dual-core Qualcomm Snapdragon S4

Asus Transformer Pad 300 Review – Quad-Core Tablet at an Affordable Price
Five months ago, the Asus’ Transformer Prime was hotter than Suzanne Collins’ Hunger Games. Not only was the tablet fast, sleek, and well built; it was the first device that made consumers question the iPad’s dominance. (And did we mention it came with Nvidia’s much hyped Tegra 3 chip?) In a nutshell, the Prime finally
Canon PowerShot G1 X Review: The Point-and-Shoot Revolution
The Canon PowerShot G1 X hoodwinked the digital camera market when it was announced back in January at CES.

HTC Titan II Review (video) – Big Phone, Big Camera
I loved using the old Titan. It was big and beautiful, and helped develop my love of massive screens. Best of all, it convinced me that Windows Phone has a chance. There have been a lot of great handsets since the first Titan launched, however — Galaxy Note, HTC One X, Lumia 900 — meaning
Sony Cyber-shot DSC-TX66 Review: This Tiny Cam Packs a Punch
18.2-megapixels, Full HD video, a 5x optical zoom, 1.2 million-pixel capacitive touchscreen and dozens upon dozens of shooting features and technologies in a camera the size of a stack of business cards?

Sony SmartWatch Review
Overview Smartwatches have never quite caught on with consumers, and yet they continue to fascinate we on the fringes of Geek Chic.

Kinect Star Wars Review – Fails You, the Controller Does
If there ever was a sci-fi universe that deserved wonderful polish and a brilliant set of motion control mechanics, it’s Star Wars. Elements of the fan-loved space epic offer up so much potential for hardware like Microsoft’s Kinect; too bad the execution here doesn’t do the franchise justice.

Overview Quick, what was the first thing I did after coming home from CES this past January? Sleep it off? Nope. That was the second thing I did. First thing I did was dig out my old iPod nano and register for Apple’s replacement program. Why? Because I’m an uber-nerd. And also because I caught
