Sony Ericsson Zylo review

zylo-main The Zylo is a mid priced Walkman mobile from Sony Ericsson and is a hefty addition to the Walkman mobile phone range. The Zylo is a substantial feeling device. It weighs in at 115 grams, which is by no means excessive however the Zylo certainly has a quality feel. It does a great job of setting itself aside from the lower priced Walkman devices in the range.

The Zylo is a classic slider device with numerical keypad and classic Walkman control on its face.

Read on to see what I think of one of Sony Ericsson’s latest Walkman handsets.

HTC 7 Trophy – hands on video

HTC 7 Trophy

The third HTC Windows Phone 7 device I had time with at the launch event was the HTC 7 Trophy which will be available on the Vodafone network.

With a 3.8 inch screen this one sits in the middle in terms of size compared to the HD7 and the HTC 7 Mozart. Like the rest it also comes with 8GB or internal storage and records video in 720P HD. Vodafone have installed a few 360 features but nothing that takes away the standard WP7 UI experience, thank god.

See the video after the break and also a reminder of the Trophy’s specs.

The Samsung Omnia has popped up on the T-Mobile UK site already and you can pre order the WP7 device for delivery in ten days.

The device is available from free with a 2 year contract at £35 per month. This will give you the following:

  • 900 minutes

With its 4 inch Super AMOLED screen the Samsung Omnia 7 will more than likely be one of the most desirable Windows Phone 7 devices. Why got get in early?

Everything Everywhere to open 6 dual branded stores

The shops will be located in Tooting, Palmers Green, Weston-super-Mare, Hertford, Bridgend and Dorchester.

Everything Everywhere staff were informed of the trial in early October via an email from Orange retail director Sonia Whitely-Guest confirming the store locations.

The locations have been chosen because they have either a T-Mobile or Orange store in the area, but not both, Everything Everywhere VP of retail Andrew Coull told Mobile.

Palm Pre 2 photos (allegedly)

palm-pre-2

It was only a few days ago that we posted about the possible specs for the Palm Pre 2. Now it would appear some photos have leaked thanks to a French website.

The photos don’t look like too much has changed on the Pre 2 apart from the improved ridge around the keyboard that I always said I could shave with.

Apparently the device is running WebOS 2.0 and has 1GHz with 512mb of RAM

Looks like good news for Palm fans. This could be just what you were looking for.

We have side on photo after the break…

Dell Venue Pro – hands on video

Dell Venue Pro – hands on video

dell_venue_pro

The dell Venue Pro is not a device that we are due to have here in the UK for a while. That’s a shame as I kind of liked it. I was talking with a Dell product manager at the launch event who said we would get it at some point but at present it is exclusive to a US carrier.

As you will see in the video below the Venue Pro is a monster of a phone. I thought my BlackBerry Torch was big but the Dell dwarfs it! With a 4.1 inch screen and a sliding full QWERTY keyboard could the Venue Pro tempt some BlackBerry users?

 

See my hands on video below and also me comparing it with my BlackBerry Torch.

HTC 7 Pro will come to the UK

HTC 7 Pro will come to the UK

HTC 7 Pro

We missed out on the HTC 7 Pro at launch here in the UK but it is coming, trust me. The device is rumored for a European launch early next year. At a secret meet up last week where I used all the UK HTC WP7 devices we were told that the HTC 7 Pro would be available to all networks when it arrives here. Could this be a nice sim free solution?

The 7 Pro has some great specs as well as that stunning looking tilting keyboard. We all know that HTC are experts at producing great designs like this. Just look at the HTC Touch Pro 2. That was one of only a few phones to instantly be snapped up by all major American carriers when it launched there.

Anyway, enough of my waffle. See the HTC 7 Pro’s specs and some more photos after the break.

Samsung Omnia 7 – Hands on video

samsung-omnia-7

Samsungs UK offering to WP7 is the Omnia 7. With a 4 inch Super AMOLED screen it has the best display seen today by far. It is however more square looking and feeling than the others but will sell well I suspect.

Like the others it records video in 720P HD but only has a 5MP camera. I say only but its not a bad thing. Samsung produce great cameras and 5MP is more than most people need.

 

Video after the break along with the spec.
