The UK Galaxy Nexus launch hasn’t gone quite to Google’s plan. Not only did exclusive retail partner Phones 4U accidentally sell a developer prototype in place of a consumer handset to the very first buyer, but now it seems Samsung has managed to share the contact details of the first 100 early-adopters with each other. “Congratulations [...]
What do you mean, you’ve never wanted a springbok-horn decorated, motion-sensing music controller glove? The musos at Jazari would be disappointed with you, though you can probably make it up to them by downloading their new Android app, Voloco. Voloco is basically a real-time automatic tuning, pitch-shifting and vocoding app, based on Jazari’s custom vocal [...]
Vodafone New Zealand has been forced to delay its launch of the Sony Ericsson XPERIA Play, after its entire launch stock was stolen. According to the carrier’s Facebook page, a “major security” breach saw thieves make off with all the gaming phones. The carrier shared a (tiny) photo of what looks to be a store [...]
The things we here at Android Community will do to get our hands on the latest gadgets! Samsung invited me to crank the traditional unboxing process up to 11 last week, taking to a 300bhp Subaru Impreza rally car to talk about the company’s new flagship Galaxy S II Android smartphone in the most unusual [...]
Was a group of Japanese robotic businessmen the only thing the Dell Streak needed to successfully quash the iPad?

You can enjoy the ninja-based fun at http://www.youtube.com/ninjaunboxing2, and don’t forget to have a good swing of [...]
We don’t actually advocate shooting your Galaxy Tab, even if it is with a CO2-powered pistol rather than a “true” firearm, but it’s a good way of demonstrating your confidence in the Gorilla Glass front panel. YouTuber metafonic braved his Samsung slate with three metal pellets from around a meter away. At the risk of [...]
We’re obviously far too mature to laugh at this sort of thing, but we will admit to a sly smile at the sight of Samsung’s Galaxy Tab with a “Porn” button in the menus. No, this isn’t the Korean company’s attempt to corner the tablet erotica market – that Steve Jobs so memorably said the [...]
Ever wondered what’s inside Google’s endearing little Android mascot? Garry Booth’s Exploded Andy t-shirt spills all – including the cogs – and would, ironically, have been the ideal thing to wear at Google IO last week.
Accessories for this MID is already starting to surface even though the phone has not been announced officially for any carrier. The launch date isn’t even set, Dell seems to have more tricks up their sleeve for this device. The dock looks interesting but there is not much information on it.
