Review: Virgin Mobile EVO V 4G Wants You To Despoil It

Mordechai Osdoby — Fri, 17 Aug 2012 21:00:13 +0000

The biggest plus of a service like Virgin Mobile is that you can save a lot of money using no-contract phone service, as long as you pay up-front for a phone. The biggest minus, however, is that the available phones were not much to write home about. Sure, the HTC Wildfire and Motorola Triumph are […]

Review: HTC EVO 4G LTE For Sprint Is Full Of Sound And Fury

Mordechai Osdoby — Mon, 09 Jul 2012 18:30:45 +0000

Sprint first introduced its EVO line in 2010 with the classic EVO 4G. This 4.3″, WiMax-connected behemoth did a great job as the company’s flagship phone, spinning off the EVO Design, Shift, and 3D, all fine phones in their own way. None, however, seemed to get as much attention as that first model. We at […]

Should You Buy Sprint’s HTC EVO 4G LTE?

Part of being techcited is not wanting to wait too long for the latest tech. As such, we were really down when the Evo 4G LTE (and HTC One X) were held at the border. The delayed smartphones began trickling in last week for eager beavers who had pre-ordered, but it’s only today that we’ve […]

Now, the company is giving us the third generation of the EVO franchise, and while at first glance it just seemed like a […]

Amazon’s Penny Pincher Sale Adds Some Pennies

Mordechai Osdoby — Mon, 28 Nov 2011 15:07:38 +0000

When I wrote about Amazon’s amazing “every single phone for a penny” sale last week, I was very excited. Even the latest and greatest phones — that didn’t start with an “i” — were a penny. That’s when I did something stupid. I waited. I took care of other things and figured I would get […]

Opinion: Why I use an LG Optimus instead of a “Superphone”

M. Gilden — Fri, 10 Jun 2011 19:20:05 +0000

With all the low budget Android handsets cutting corners, its easy to overlook the merit of the LG Optimus line. I picked one up on the Sprint network a day after the launch expecting mostly to do a review and not keep it. I’m used to owning “Superphones” (read: whatever was the most expensive from […]
