HTC Rezound finally receives an Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich update, available today

Were you one of the people that bought into the Beats branded HTC Rezound last year? Have you been waiting forever to get your hands on Ice Cream Sandwich? If you are this kind of person then we have good new for you. HTC and Verizon have finally released the Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich update to the HTC Rezound. This update is an OTA (over the air) update that brings Ice Cream Sandwich with the legacy Sense 3.6 skin. Do not worry if you do not get the update right now, because updates take a couple days to a week to reach everyone's Rezound. We are not sure of this, but we think that this update will bring some of the Ice Cream Sandwich features like face unlock, settings in the notification tray, etc. For those of you that do not know what the HTC Rezound is, it is a very nice handset that was the first U.S. carrier phone to have a 720p display, and it was the first U.S. phone with the Beats branding. We personally like the Rezound, because it has a great display, offers great performance, and comes with a fantastic pair of iBeats headphones that would regularly cost $100 on their own. The only negative thing about the Rezound is that it has bad battery life and is a little chubby. We are glad to finally see the Rezound get updated, and this update makes the handset still a great buy for consumers. Want more information on the Beats branded handset's update?

Review: The SpongeBob Movie: Sponge Out of Water

It's 7:15 at night. The sun has been below the horizon for quite some time, but it is not yet my bedtime. I go to the cashier and ask her if they are showing my movie. She gives me a puzzled look, checks the queue, and luckily finds the tickets I am looking for. After asking my age she assures me that I have nothing to be ashamed about, nothing to fear. I then pass through the doors and embark on a journey I have been waiting for more than a decade to begin. Back in 2004 Nickelodeon, Stephen Hillenburg, & company released the very first feature film of the SpongeBob Squarepants franchise: The SpongeBob Squarepants Movie . The cartoon had been around for less than five years at the time, and many people did not expect much from its box office release. However, it did do very well for a television cartoon movie grossing more than $32 million opening weekend and receiving average scores of 66/100. This might sound mediocre compared to Oscar winning films, but this is incredib...

Moto G: Moto Grrrreat!

Before the Moto X was officially announced, people speculated that it might be offered at an incredibly low off-contract price. Some people even guessed that it would be $199 off - contract . This was sadly not true, but Motorola did say that they would eventually offer a device similar to the Moto X, but with a lower unlocked price. Motorola also said that the cheaper device would be geared towards more markets than the United States, like Brazil and other emerging markets. They have finally taken off the covers of the Moto G, and it is almost exactly as Motorola said it would be. It looks like a Moto X, but it has less expensive internals. Many other smartphone manufacturers have made cheaper versions of their flagship handsets, but they almost always turn out to be pieces of junk. Is the Moto G a worthwhile handset, even at its $179 off-contract price? Can you be happy with the Moto G as your primary device. Scroll onward to find out, but you can just look at the title if you wan...

Hands-On with the Motorola Droid Maxx and Droid Ultra

Even though the Moto X is going to be on every US carrier, Motorola still feels the need to have a line of Droid handsets on Verizon. Motorola’s Droid Razr HD, Maxx HD, and Razr M were relatively successful products, and they were actually really good. The Maxx HD brought hours and hours of battery life, a speedy processor, and a decent HD display. The Razr M was a very nice smartphone in a small package, and was one of the best small Android phones you could buy at the time. This year, Verizon and Motorola unveiled the Motorola Droid Ultra, Maxx, and Motorola Droid Mini at a launch event a while back. These products are now available for $200, $300, and $100 on contract respectively at Verizon, so we decided to try out the Ultra and Maxx handsets for ourselves. Can these Droids stand up to the likes of the HTC One, Samsung Galaxy S4, and Motorola’s own Moto X? Are these the Droids you’re looking for? Scroll onwards to find out the answers to these questions and more ...
