Techcitement Review: Will the Samsung Conquer 4G Capture Your Heart?
Recently, Samsung sent us their newest Sprint phone, the Conquer 4G. This phone is meant to be the first “budget” 4G phone, coming in at $99 after contract. But is it worth even that?

Last night, Samsung announced the long awaited U.S. launch of their Galaxy S II smartphones, which are available from AT&T, Sprint, and T-Mobile.

Techcitement Review: Samsung Nexus S 4G
The Samsung Nexus S 4G is not a new phone, I’ll cop to that. However, in light of the recent recent OS update coupled with today’s big news, I thought I’d give it a whirl. Right out of the box, the Nexus impressed. It’s packaged nicely and looks well made. While the housing is plastic […]
Techcitement Review: Samsung Droid Charge
The Samsung Droid Charge is the hottest phone in Verizon’s current lineup. Or at least, it had better be, with a $300 price tag even with a contract. Even though I was anticipating a chance to play with this phone, which has a tremendous 4.3” display on a black slab and silver border, the build […]

Apple managed to get an injunction from a German court blocking the sale of the […]
