It's been a while since we've seen interesting Sony Ericsson leaks and we thought they don't have any upcoming phones worth leaking. But we were wrong. Meet Shakira, a phone reusing XPERIA X10 design all over again. If we assume the original XPERIA X10 is about size XL, and the XPERIA X10 mini is about size XS, then we can safely call the Sony Ericsson phone codenamed Shakira size M. Sony ... Read More

BlackBerry 9800 Slider has been leaked a bunch of times till now, but only this time we managed to have a look at a bunch of clear photos portraying the device. Berrytimes.cn gets the credit for this leak and we have to mention that these nifty images don’t come with specs attached, although we’re already familiar with some of 9800’s features. The phone’s sliding keyboard looks pretty usable and BlackBerry OS ... Read More

Sprint has just launched Samsung Restore m570, but that may interest you a little less than HTC EVO 4G, also launched by the carrier a couple of days ago. For those of you who still like Restore, you might want to know that the handset is eco-friendly and comes with a full keyboard and an alphanumeric one. Samsung Restore m570 is 84% recyclable and packs a QVGA display, Sprint Navigation, a ... Read More

RIM is supposedly readying a refreshed BlackBerry Bold model, the 9700a and some specs have already surfaced on the web. Apparently, the device will feature 512MB RAM, a 5 megapixel camera and the BlackBerry OS 6.0 platform, including the new Webkit browser. The handset pictured above is a Photoshop work that should portray the new device in some way. BlackBerry 9700a is expected in a couple of months and it’s most ... Read More

Nokia seems to be having a field day. The Nokia E73 Mode just went official and just as expected, it's headed to T-Mobile USA. Reading through its spec sheet though, there are plenty of similarities between the E73 and E72. A staple of the E7x phones is the portrait QWERTY keyboard and surprise, surprise... it's available on the Nokia E73 Mode too. Running the Symbian S60 3rd edition was also to ... Read More

A pair of low cost phones, the Nokia C1-01 and C1-02 are very similar in specification except that one has a camera and one does not. Before we look at these handsets in more detail, we have to say that we think that the model names indicate the mess that Nokia have made with their new naming conventions. The C1-01 is the one with the camera, the C1-02 is the one ... Read More

One of a trio of low-end "C1" handsets from Nokia, the Nokia C1-00 is distinctly different from the other two in that this is a double-SIM handset aimed primarily at emerging markets. By "double SIM" we mean that the C1-00 has two internal SIM slots, but only one is active at any one time and the user can swap between them by using a menu. This is different from "dual SIM" ... Read More

Nokia's first full dual-SIM phone, the Nokia C2 is a basic entry-level device aimed primarily at emerging markets, but with a feature set that should give it a pretty broad appeal worldwide. Priced at just €45 before tax and subsidy, the Nokia C2 comes with Bluetooth, a microSD slot, a multimedia player, FM radio, VGA resolution camera, a 3.5mm audio connector, and in addition the standard sales package includes a Nokia ... Read More

The first signs of the BlackBerry 9300 (code-named Kepler), there were indications that it would be a modest follow-up to the BlackBerry 8500 series Curves. Now that the first pictures of the device have surfaced, we can see that sums it up pretty nicely. Compared to the 8520 and 8530, the only real additions in the 9300 are Wi-Fi 802.11n (which in my experience doesn’t amount to a lot), 3G ... Read More
