If you couldn`t tell from my last post on NFC, I find the idea of paying for things with NFC or doing anything with NFC an exciting prospect. Now a hack has appeared over at XDA Developers that allows Nexus S owners outside the US to set up Google Wallet on their phone. Hit the [...]

Hotmail, the worlds longest standing free cloud email solution has finally delivered an official app in the market for Android. With a reported 355 million active Hotmail accounts worldwide at the end of 2010 (compared to Gmail figures of 193 million), it’s surprising that it’s taken Microsoft so long to deliver an app for Android [...]

Since the iPhone 4S has just been announced by Apple, we thought we’d put it head to head against some of the leading Android devices currently available and the rumoured specs of the Nexus Prime. All of them are dual-core, all of them are sparkly, but some are apparently more revolutionary than others. Find our [...]

I recently got my hands on the Xperia Play (thanks, Sony Ericsson!) to have a play with some of the new games that had been announced exclusively for the device. One of those games was Minecraft Pocket Edition. Being a massive fan of Minecraft on the desktop I was interested to see what the mobile [...]

A free app that allows you unlimited messages and calls through your data connection can be a bit of a trap for new players. But for those of us that have either a high data plan, or understand that VoIP connections can chew through a lot of data are in the box seat to use [...]

The Sony Ericsson Xperia Ray is the sleek, compact yet powerful new phone in the Xperia range. The Ray can best be considered as a baby version of the Arc, with which it shares CPU, screen resolution, battery size, camera and memory, but with a few added features such as a front camera. Due to [...]

It’s not often we review games on Ausdroid, but when they are made by Australian developers, we’re keen to make sure we take the time to play them and show our support for the developers where we can. As the name would suggest, Platinum Air Hockey (made by Australian Developer, Platinum Apps) is a simulated [...]

iOS has iTunes native to it, although there are a number of ways to get your iTunes library onto your Android phone none are truly native with an app that is designed for the device. Nokia (prior to the downward spiral that it’s currently riding) had the Ovi Store, now Android has Google Music. Although [...]

The last time I reviewed an LG device, it really didn’t blow me away, in fact I couldn’t wait to get back to my everyday device. The LG Optimus 3D is a little bit of a different story. It was a breath of fresh air, still the same air mind you, but fresher. To find [...]

The Sony Ericsson Neo is a beautiful-looking phone. With its curves, chrome sides and black to blue colour transition on the back I immediately fell in love with this phone. Is the love more than skin deep? Read on to see.. Google+

Now that all of the major and minor carriers have announced their pricing for the Galaxy S II superphone, we thought we’d do what you guys seem to enjoy – or at least enjoy arguing over – and that’s to do a brief comparison of what each carrier will offer you at a certain price. [...]

The HTC Salsa is the 3.4-inch touchscreen version of HTC’s two Facebook phones, and I have to say I recommend it only to the most hardcore of Facebook addicts. If you’re interested in the other ‘Facebook Phone’, check out our HTC ChaCha review, if not, hit the break to get into the Salsa review. Google+

The rumour of HTC manufacturing phones for Facebook may have been false, though the idea of the creating Facebook phones was on HTC’s mind. That’s where the HTC ChaCha and HTC Salsa come in. Both of which are closer to the low-end of the smartphone market, but are targeted straight at the Facebook addicts of [...]
