There was a plethora of these phones available in the area I was visiting and I figure when I am done using this solid Android smartphone I'll still be able to sell it for the same amount I paid if not more using Craigslist or some similar outlet on the web, maybe Swappa.   I purchased the Vivid fully knowing the phone is sold to operate with AT&T service, but I knew the good guys … [Read more...]

A minor update is said to be headed to the HTC Evo 3D now or as soon as E3D owners make the phone manually find the update.

It is no secret that HTC is reporting a loss in sales for the 4th quarter of 2011. The HTC Rezound is a great phone with its fast 1.5 GHz dual-core processor, excellent 720p resolution display, Beats Audio, and more, but it was quickly overshadowed by the Motorola RAZR and the highly anticipated Samsung Galaxy Nexus all on the Verizon Wireless Network. The HTC Rezound can be bought outright for $649.99 or for $199.99 with a new 2 year contract. If you want a smooth, dual-core Android phone … [Read more...]
