New iPhone4 only £12,995 + contract

iphone-4-diamond-edition

As if it wasn’t expensive, the trend continues for the Bedazzled iPhone with an stylish array of diamond crystals. This version of the 32GB white iPhone 4 comes with a “hand finished wallet made from real Ostrich foot” just to turn most women off. For a meagre £12,995 you can have one, but be quick as there are only 50 units will be available for retail. iPhone 4 from Gresso is obviously going to turn some heads and help you stand out. Muggers and burglars, take note.

BlackBerry 9670 video

blackberry-9670-6-400x300

Earlier today we brought you the BlackBerry 9800 video and now we have the 9670 courtesy of salomondrin.net

Not sure how this guy has his hands on the new devices but I want to go round his house to play!

As you will see, this version of the 9670 flip is not running BlackBerry 6 but it does have some new features such as tabbed browsing.

Although the BlackBerry 9670 does look bit strange when open I think it looks really cute when closed. Perfect for slipping into a pocket and not having to worry about scratching the screen.

See what you think in the video below and let us know your thoughts over on the forum.

BlackBerry 9800 on video

blackberry-9800-itw-6

We have seen the BlackBerry Slider 9800 on video before but this new one from salomondrin.net shows what a truly beautiful device the 9800 is.

Not only do we get to see the device in detail but also the forthcoming BlackBerry 6 OS and that too looks pretty sweet. Not quite on par with Apples iOS4 but none of us BlackBerry addicts expected it to be. A definite improvement either way.

Anyway, enough of me yapping. Check out the excellent video below.

Sony Ericsson Xperia X10 mini review

Sony Ericsson Xperia X10 mini reviewIn much the same way as phones went touchscreen in the recent past, it’s now becoming a trend for mobile manufacturers to add ‘mini’ on the end of the model names, then put them through the most minor of changes and call it a day. The X10 mini however is probably the only phone that really deserves the title of ‘mini’ – Sony Ericsson has made some serious changes and ‘X10 Tiny’ would probably have been a more appropriate name.

Whatever they chose to call it, the design also reflects that it is very much the little brother of the original beefy X10. Sony Ericsson showed off both the X10 mini and the X10 mini pro back at MWC in February, where their tiny form factor combined with Android caught many people’s hearts. On the face of it, a small touchscreen may not seem to make sense for sake of usability, and so in the review we’ll find out amongst other things whether having a 2.55″screen and not many buttons is a good idea. The X10 mini is the first of the two to hit the market here in the UK, but can a tiny little phone make a large impression?

HTC Ace – let the rumours commence

htc-quietly-brilliant-logo1_thumb Don’t you just love the internet for it’s ability to spread rumour and speculation? There are always new phones and other devices rumoured and HTC seem to be running a close second behind Apple when it comes to speculation about new and as-yet unannounced handsets.

About a month ago someone messaged me through the site to say that they’d heard that there was a new device coming from HTC called the HTC Ace. They asked if I knew anything about it, at the time I knew nothing and having asked HTC, drew a blank.

We forgot about the Ace for a little while, device names get mentioned all the time and frequently come to nothing. Then about a week or so ago a few more questions about the Ace came my way. More enquiries to HTC but still nothing confirmed, no surprise there.

So this is what we have heard about the HTC Ace, which I must point out is pure rumour at the moment but I’ve had it from a few unrelated sources.

Question: What do you get if you cross the HTC Evo with the HTC Incredible?

Answer: The HTC Ace!

The HTC Ace will be a new Android 3.0 powered smartphone, running a dual-core snapdragon CPU. It will be a large touchscreen device, 4.3″ AMOLED like the HTC HD2 or EVO but styled more like the HTC Incredible. An 8 megapixel camera with flash. GPS and all the other nice bits that we’ve come to expect from an HTC Handset.

Obviously we’ll try to find out more and will have our ear very close to the ground and we’ll post more as we get it!

Samsung S3370 unboxing video

S3370The Samsung S3370 is part of their Corby range but this new low end touch screen device is now packing 3G so web browsing etc wont be quite as frustrating.

Running Samsung’s, now so familiar, TouchWiz UI the S3370 will be a low cost, lightweight basic phone although it does support a vast range of features including email, Bluetooth, 3G, music player, 1.3mp camera with smile detection and integrated social media applications such as Facebook and MySpace.

As I write this I am not sure how much the Samsung S3370 will retail for but I would imagine it will be inline with previous Corby phones and therefore on PAYG should sell for around the £75.00 mark.

Lets unbox and see what we get for our money.

giffgaff goody bags half price

Screen shot 2010-07-05 at 16.26.57

If you have not heard of giffgaff before then now is the time to listen up. To cut a long story short giffgaff are a UK mobile operator (runs off the O2 network) who have some rather attractive deals permanently and at the moment things are even better as their goody bags are half price. 

This is how it works. Order a free sim from them. Buy credit and then buy a goody bag. At the moment £5.00 will get you 100 mins, unlimited texts and unlimited internet. How about that for good value.

I have been using giffgaff for a couple of months now as my review device sim card and have had no issues with them at all. Matt is the same. He has a giffgaff sim in his iPad. Why wouldn’t you for those prices. Online topping up is simple. Their website is user friendly and easy to navigate.

Head on over to giffgaff and get yourself a sim card.

The HTC Vision

HTC Vision

There is a certain photo floating around the internet now and it is of the forthcoming HTC Vision. We must remember that HTC have made no official announcement about this device so I expect that the photo we see here will be a prototype of the Vision.

What we can tell you though is that HTC will release a device like this in the future. We get to here secret stuff here at tracyandmatt. Shall I tell you what else is coming soon from HTC? No, that would spoil things!

Anyway, the Vision looks to be a great device. Essentially a HTC Desire with a slide out QWERTY keyboard and we all know how good HTC are at those. Just look at the Touch Pro 2. That one still has the best keyboard to date if you ask me.

Keep your eyes peeled for more news on the HTC Vision in the future. We are in for an exciting quarter 3 from HTC!

With recent Android flagship devices being released by the likes of HTC and Motorola and also the new Apple iPhone 4 is the Samsung Galaxy S a contender for top place?

Only one way to find out and that is to read on.
