+1^ It frustrates me to no end when people complain that the phones 'only' have a 5 MPx camera! Seriously? That's already overkill. You're just filling up your storage with sensor noise at that point. Please... Better optics > more Mpx.

Buying an iPhone (or any phone for that matter) off contract isn't worth it. I pay the same for my plan regardless of whether I bought the phone outright or am on contract... the only difference is of course is the contract. But there's no benefit to being off contract except the illusion of...

I remember when I could tether my Palm PDA via blue-tooth to my phone. Have we evolved backwards? Why do these devices need their own data plan? It would make more sense for it to tether to your smart-phone. Just imagine one data plan that either device can use when it needs. Seriously, the...

The Samsung Omnia and LG Optimus look better than their US counterparts. Maybe it's just me but I don't like the excessive roundness and prefer the more rectangular look. It (the rounded design) makes the phone look bulky since visually there's more 'dead' space around the screen. I'm really...

theuerkornTrue, kind of. In my experience 3 - 4 MPx is a bit low for anything bigger than 5x7 photo prints. Of course the 13 MPx in this package are likely to be riddled by blur and noise to effectively render a picture quality that's probably closer to 6 MPx in this package.However, marketing...

If they had not wasted time developing the Kin and focused on making a Zune Phone I would have been interested. Which is what WP7 is I guess, just kinda late to the party.

Also one thing to check is make sure your TV and/or video card aren't over/underscanning. By default the TV will chop off a few pixels around the image and re-size it... which is fine for watching TV and rids the image of any edge artifacts that may or may not be there. On the TV: For my...

RamarThis reminds me of the FPS debate. If the eye can only see 30 fps [give or take] why does 100 fps look so much more fluid than even 60? 24FPS is the threshold where a series of still images looks like motion, not the limit of the eye. So the more FPS the more fluid it looks. That is not...

As devnull3 mentioned the home screen is the best feature of Android and win7 based phones. 90% of the time when I use my phone I check mail, the weather, call someone, send a text message, check/make appointments in calendar or load the web browser. Even without a home page to 'clutter'...

"imagine your 3 megapixel camera getting upgraded to 12 megapixels" This doesn't increase the resolution of the image, just the effective ISO right? So a more appropriately your 50 ISO sensor would act like a 200 ISO which is good because as you crank up the sensitivity you get more noise so...
