    Camera quality (pixel content)

    I'm wondering about those "large" pixels... I have a degree in photography, which I got back when we were still using film (!!). I see a lot of parallels with this larger-pixel sensor and high-ISO film. High-ISO film also takes better pictures in low light, BUT the trade-off is that the grains...

    VERIZON Nexus 6P Q&A

    I saw the radio specs on the Play Store page, but I don't know what VZW uses. Will the 6P work with Verizon? Network specs for the 6P: GSM/EDGE: 850/900/1800/1900MHz UMTS/WCDMA: B1/2/4/5/8 CDMA: BC0/1/10 LTE (FDD): B2/3/4/5/7/12/13/17/25/26/29/30 LTE (TDD): B41 CA DL: B2-B2, B2-B4, B2-B5...

    Verizon GN4 5.0.1 Update available now!

    I just did my near-daily check for an OS update and - surprise, surprise - there is one! I did a quick web search and found that this is still 5.0.1 and the official list of changes is small and disappointing, but I can't help but be hopeful that this update fixes some/most/all of the issues...

    I directly compared the R with the Urbane

    So I got a G Watch Urbane when they first came out and was generally happy with it. However, I learned that the G Watch R was basically the same inside and had the same screen. Since I preferred the looks of the R and it was $100 cheaper, I decided to order one of those as well. I was smart...

    Camera button!!!

    I'm really excited to be getting a dedicated camera button again! I can't remember the last time I had one. I know it may not be a big deal to some, but I didn't realize how much I've missed it until I saw it on the Z3. Is it just me? Why has there been no mention of this in the media?

    Full size or compact??

    I'd been waiting for the new Moto X, but these two Xperia Z3s came out of nowhere to blow it out of the competition! So now my only remaining question is - full-size or compact?? I *love* that the compact has nearly the same specs - awesome move, Sony! But I'm starting to think that maybe I do...

    Bluetooth OR Wi-fi toggler

    Hi dev people, I'm a programmer but don't have time to learn Android programming right now, so I'm going to gift you with this idea. All I want in return is a free copy. :) I noticed that most of the time when I'm using bluetooth, I'm not in a wi-fi area. (Walking the dog with bluetooth...

    Help Issues since OTA .604

    Hi everyone, I believe that my DX is worse after the .604 update (ironic, considering how eager I was to get it). I've had to pull the battery once, and earlier today I was unable to answer a phone call by swiping the lock screen! I figured I'd make a central area to post issues since the...

    Yet to receive OTA?

    My wife and I have yet to receive the OTA update for our DXes. I verified my system version is still .516. Every time I hit "System Updates" it either gives me a quick "can't do that right now" message or it sits and spins forever on "checking for available update". I have not received any...

    Accessories Accessories - good job, Verizon!

    I just want to give props to VZW for having a lot of good accessory choices available at launch, and keeping them in stock! I went to a company store over lunch today and browsed at least six cases for it (and bought two). They even had the kickstand one that's out of stock online. So, good job...

    FYI: Ebay has 19+ EVOs for sale from I/O devs

    If you want an EVO right-freaking-now and are willing to (over) pay for it, you can have it! I just counted at least 19 Google I/O developers who are selling their free gifts on Ebay. It appears they come with free network usage for a limited time, but I didn't really investigate that far. The...

    EVO fees: take action!

    If you're like me and upset about the extra fees associated with the EVO, I urge you to take action! I wrote to dan@sprint.com and voiced my concerns. You should too! I hope that if enough people write in with their concerns about the extra fees, Dan and company may reconsider. They have a...

    SCOOP: Nexus One Dock hits the FCC

    Hi everyone, Did my daily check of the FCC today for HTC postings and I found this nifty little gem. HTC is preparing to release the "Nexus One Dock" (CR B410) in the (near?) future. Nothing super exciting about that, *except* that it has built-in Bluetooth for some reason. Weird! I'm excited...

    The name game

    So... If Verizon carries the Passion/Dragon, and they want to build this whole line of "Droid" phones, I wonder what the official name of the device is going to be? Droid Dragon? Something else entirely, like how the Hero turned into the Droid Eris? Discuss! :)
