HTC Glamor Spotted in the Closet, Possibly a Cross Dressing HTC Bliss?
June 24, 2011 by android news · Leave a Comment
Anyone remember that rumor about HTC’s female-centric experiment codenamed “Bliss?” Well, it seems that another female-based HTC phone has been spotted hanging in a closet, which gives us the hint of a female target audience. Anyway, not much (if anything) is known about this “glamorous” device, and there is some speculation going around that this could very well be the HTC Bliss we’ve been hearing about. At this point, we could speculate about anything and everything, but apparently the HTC Glamor will be walking the runway sporting a variety of “hot” colors, including pink, yellow and light blue. This is a far cry from the rumored forest/sea green of the HTC Bliss, but maybe that’s what the focus group was for. What do you think ladies

June 23, 2011 by android news · Leave a Comment
Sharp has been trying to get a decent Android device out there for quite some time, and unfortunately, they missed the mark on this one as well. The device above is a leaked Sharp Android phone that’s likely headed to North America, as well as Europe and Asia. It’s being referenced as the SH8188U, and it’ll be packing Froyo, a WVGA display of unknown size, 3G connectivity, WiFi, an HDMI port, 5MP camera with HD video recording, and possibly a front-facing camera. No word on the processor, but I for one am already disappointed that the device is running Froyo instead of Gingerbread

Remember the Kyocera Echo? Unfortunately, so do we. From the beginning, the concept of a dual-screen device seemed like a good idea, but only if the right company manufactured it..
