Review: HBO GO Application for iOS and Android

HBO GOThe HBO GO Application for iOS and Android devices is a great addition to the world of apps for content consumption. It offers many people who are fans or occasional watchers the ability to access HBO content from virtually anywhere on the go. Currently they have nearly 1,500 titles that include movies, documentaries, original series, comedy stand-ups, and even late night content.

Samsung Focus Review

Well, a few weeks ago was the HTC Inspire, so apparently it's time to do a 180 degree turn and review something developed by Microsoft instead. And so, like a plot twist in a bad movie, in comes the Samsung Focus, practically dripping Windows ubiquity, right when needed. As a somewhat jaded Microsoft PC user, the question is as follows: how will the Win7 Phone OS stack up against the other available mobile OSes, and would it be enough to warrant a switch?

Samsung SCH-LC11 4G LTE Hotspot Review

Samsung Hotspot

The Samsung 4G LTE Hostspot is one of the 4G devices we saw at CES at the Verizon press conference. It is the Samsung SCH-LC11 hotspot which fully supports the Verizon Wireless 4G LTE and 3G networks. The hotspot supports up to 5 devices simultaneously and works similar to your home router. The LED lights on the top of the device tell you connection strength and which network you are connected to. For example a yellow light could mean that the signal strength is getting low while green is for a great signal. Read on for the full review.
