We’re big fans of the super-sized Galaxy Note here at Techcitement. While not the first device to blur the line between tablet and phone, Samsung was the first company to not stink at it. (We’re looking at you, Dell.) LG recently introduced its own 5″ tablet, the Optimus Vu. However, this 5″-fronting, LTE-Living, stylus-sporting handset […]

Review: Samsung Galaxy S III — Does The Third Time Charm?
I confess a weak spot for Samsung’s Galaxy line, and I’m clearly not the only one as Galaxy phones managed to take the number one spot for smartphone market share in the first quarter of 2012. That’s a pretty impressive feat considering we live in a world where most people react to seeing a new […]
Review: Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G Surpasses Expectactions
The Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G (clearly another victim of the Android Phone Name Generator) is billed as a mid-range alternative to the Galaxy S II. Normally, I’m not a huge fan of mid-range phones, because they tend to be sad, underpowered compromises that trade performance in favor of a cheaper handset price. That’s why […]
Apple Gets Samsung’s Galaxy Tab Pulled Off U.S. Shelves
Apple’s been doing well in the lawsuit department lately. Sure, Apple’s patent case against Motorola was thrown out of court, but the company that Jobs built managed to seriously delay HTC’s recent hot phones earlier this month.

Windows Phone 8 Surfaces, Current Windows Phone Devices Need Not Apply
Microsoft is making it a habit to surprise me when it comes to Windows Phones. After years of frustration with the power user-centric Windows Mobile OS, Microsoft managed to put out a viable, consumer-based smartphone operating system aimed at the general public. Indeed, the tile system used in the OS has proven popular enough that […]
Samsung’s Galaxy S III Coming To The U.S. This Month
Good news, everyone. You can stop being so envious of European techies. While they’ve been lucky enough to have Samsung’s new flagship for a month now, we in the U.S. can get our hands on it this month. Samsung announced that the device will come out shortly for multiple U.S. carriers. T-Mobile, Sprint, and Verizon […]

This week, Judge Lucy Koh of the U.S. District Court for Northern District of California, ordered Apple and Samsung to pare down their list of complaints against one another.

Techcitement Review: Samsung Galaxy Note Is The Medium-Sized Man On Campus
We all know tablets are huge these days. Everyone wants to third screen in, but the big barrier is, as always, the cost. Sure, tablets aren’t that expensive. Even if you can’t afford a $500 iPad, a $200 Kindle Fire is usually within reach. But that’s not the only cost customers are facing. Unfortunately, the […]
