Sony could make a pretty great Windows Phone device

When Microsoft originally unveiled their new effort Windows Phone, I remember there was quite a bit of support for the company's effort. It made sense, though, considering how much support there...

I've almost stopped using widgets

I don't know about you, but I have a tendency to use my phone a lot right when I pull it out of the box. For the first week, couple of weeks or maybe even the first month --it all depends on the...

Which company are you expecting the most out of in 2014?

I'm sure you've heard the sentiment that a New Year is a Fresh Start. With 2013 closing out, just as any year before it, the days ahead are a way to wash the slate clean and start anew. For people...

I'm not all that excited about potential eye scanners

When it comes to 2014, I don't have any doubts that we're going to be pretty excited to see what companies create. Next year is a big year! We've got the new, new iPhone! Microsoft should have...

I may move away from carrier-branded devices

I have a confession to make. While I've been straightforward about switching phones a lot, I've been keeping a secret. It's a big one, too. Because when most people switch devices often enough, they...

I don't have a favorite Android manufacturer anymore

I can still remember when Android as a whole was still struggling for relevance across the mobile market. Back then, a lot of people thought Google's mobile endeavors were going to just fall flat on...

What doesn't Samsung need to change?

So, I'll admit that I've been pretty hard on TouchWiz lately. I went as far as to say that I disliked the Galaxy S 4, which is admittedly a pretty great device as a whole, simply because I'm not a...

I want to merge the Moto X and Lumia 1020

When I go from device to device, in search of that perfect phone, I do what probably everyone else does: go through the routine. I check out the screen with some high definition videos. I check out...

What did you get this year?

As I write this, I’m watching my social media streams fill up with pictures and well wishes. This is the time of year, probably now more than ever, that I’m inundated with before-and-after images....

After displays, what's going to get our focus?

I’ve been told in the past that I’m a big fan of pixels. A “pixel junky,” even. Obsessed. I’ve dismissed devices in the past as my personal device simply because the screen wasn’t up to par. Whether...

Let me turn proprietary software off and on when I want, without root

Back when I was using Android almost exclusively, I was also going out of my way to put custom software on it, too. More often than not I’d pick a phone to start using based on its developer support...

I want a bigger iPhone, not a bigger iPad, Apple

We’re now just a few days away from the end of December, and with it, the end of 2013. It also means that we’re inching our way closer to some brand new devices — just as we always are. But with...

How would you change the Pebble smartwatch?

The future of smartphones is a tricky thing to try and pace out. We can look at what we’ve seen over the last year, see where things have changed, what’s picking up steam, and what’s being left to...
