HTC One X unboxing video

The HTC One X is the first of three new Android phones from the HTC stable to announced at MWC this year. All three will carry the “One” name but we’re starting off with the biggest. The One X has a whopping 4.7″ display manages to cram in 720×1280 pixels. It may sound like it’s going to be a monster in terms of size but HTC’s clever design and styling means that it really doesn’t look or feel as big as you might think.

The HTC One X is all about performance and thanks to the QUAD-core 1.5GHz CPU it doesn’t disappoint in this department either. Check out the benchmark results in the video below but I can tell you we’ve ended up with the highest benchmark numbers ever seen.

There’s no Micro-SD card slot on the One X but fortunately there’s 32GB of internal memory to store your photos and media.

You can find the unboxing and first impression video below and we’ll have another video for you later on where we’ll look at some of the other features in more detail.

Archos 101 G9 Unboxing Video

Archos have been confusing the market lately by releasing a new version for their current line almost every month. This original version for the Archos 101 G9 weighs in with a Dual Core 1ghz processor, 512mb of RAM and 8gb of storage, Essentially what we are looking at is the original, basic version of their flagship device however over the last six months there has been a number of revisions to the specifications for you to consider.

The Archos 101 comes in four flavours, with roughly three variants of each flavour.

1. Archos 101 G9 – Dual Core OMAP4, 1ghz, 512mb RAM with the option of storage size. 8/16gb flash or 250gb HDD storage
2. Archos 101 G9 Turbo – Dual Core, 1.2ghz, 512mb RAM, 8 / 16 / 250gb storage
3. Archos 101 G9 Turbo 1.5 – Dual Core, 1.5ghz 512mb RAM, 8 / 16 / 250gb storage
4. Archos 101 G9 Turbo 1.5 – Dual Core, 1.5ghz, 1gb RAM, 8 / 16 / 250gb storage

Quite a lot of choice. Each model weighs in at a different price point however it might be more difficult to find the first options and even then it might be old/unsold stock. There is no 3G/Wi-Fi option as with many other tablets on the market. Instead Archos have given the customer the option to upgrade to 3G later if they so choose buy purchasing a 3G modem USB stick that slips snugly into the USB host port on the back.

The Archos tablet puts video playback first, and always has. Armed with a host of licensed codec’s the Archos will playback any and all major video formats you throw at it. The Archos also has SMB and other network storage streaming features built into it’s native video player to make it just that little bit easier to handle media servers.

It is important to note the unboxing features Android Honeycomb, however the final review will feature Ice Cream Sandwich.

Angry Birds Space – Game Play Video

Angry Birds Space has been on the horizon for some time now. Available now to download for Android and iOS as well as PC and Mac the game is typical Angry Birds with a twist. After all, being set in space you would expect some gravitational changes.

After a giant claw kidnaps their eggs, the Angry Birds chase it into a wormhole and find themselves floating in a strange new galaxy – surrounded by space pigs! Luckily the Angry Birds have super powers of their own…

Angry Birds Space features 60 interstellar levels on planets and in zero gravity, resulting in spectacular game play ranging from slow-motion puzzles to lightspeed destruction. With regular free updates, brand new birds, brand new superpowers, and a whole galaxy to explore, the sky is no longer the limit!

White BlackBerry Bold 9900 – Unboxing Video

The BlackBerry Bold has been around for some time now. We had our unboxing video and review up back in November last year however It occurred to me recently we haven’t been hands on with the white variant. So a quick phone call to RIM and one arrived.

Clearly the difference between the white and the black version is only the colour so don’t expect anything new here. However, if you are looking to purchase the BlackBerry Bold 9900 it is worth considering the white one as it does look beautiful.

If you fancy a look at what it is all about you can see a quick unboxing below:

Third-generation Apple TV unboxing video

Apple’s big March announcement was very much dominated by all things iPad but there was a short section of the presentation dedicated to a tiny little black-box product called the Apple TV. At the event we were introduced to the third-generation of the Apple TV which, from the outside, looks just like the 2nd gen predecessor.

However, there are a lot of changes inside that little box the result of which is the ability to playback full HD footage, 1080P at up to 60Hz.

The redesigned user interface also makes and appearance here and this not only makes third-party add-ons easier to use but also gives the interface a more modern feel and aligns it with what we see on iOS devices.

Here’s a quick unboxing video of this little wonder.
