HTC Butteryfly Unboxed! The HTC Butterfly was announced late last year and it made quite a buzz due to the quality of the display and the specifications.

Unbox Rating: 4/5 Although you don’t really classify the Wonderful Wizard of Oz as fairytale, it does establish itself in the echelons of the Classics. I mean who hasn’t heard of Dorothy and the odd-group pairings of the Cowardly Lion, The heartless Tin man and the Brainless Scarecrow? And what witch hasn’t gotten the stereotypical look based from the […]
Sony Xperia Z Unboxed! Woohooo! As you guys probably can surmise from our initial hands-on, we’re pretty psyched up about the Sony Xperia Z.

Both are candybar type phones with the familiar alphanumeric keypad. However Nokia made sure to “level-up” the feature phones so that they are actually relevant and useful in this […]
