Nokia Lumia 820 Review Most of the attention of the Nokia Lumia line-up went to the flagship, the Nokia Lumia 920. However the younger sibling, the Nokia Lumia 820, is quite a gem itself. It sports nearly identical internal specifications and comes with a smaller form factor at 4.3-inches. There’s no PureView camera but it […]
BlackBerry Z10: Best BlackBerry Ever Made We’ll jump the gun and say that the BlackBerry Z10 is the best BlackBerry ever made. It is lightyears ahead of it’s most recent batch of predecessors, the BlackBerry Bold 9900 and 9790.

HTC 8X Windows Phone Review We’ve reviewed a lot of smartphones and tablets here on Unbox. The device that got the most number of comments when we took it out (next to the iPhone 5 prior to local launch) wasn’t an Android phone. It was actually a Windows Phone — the HTC 8X. Why does […]

Here’s the REAL Cherry Mobile Omega in the Flesh Ladies and gents, the Cherry Mobile Omega has landed. What’s weird though is that this isn’t the same phone that made a lot of Pinoy techies drool a few weeks back (especially when Lazada “leaked” the specs). From what I gather, Cherry Mobile changed the actual […]
