LG KC910 Renoir vs the Samsung Pixon M8800

Comparing camera phones

Mobile@Mail.Ru put together great comparison shots of the LG Renoir vs the Samsung Pixon. Both phones are 8 MP camera phones and if you’re unsure which one you should buy, these comparisons should help you make up your mind.

Spec-wise, the Renoir is the better camera phone. According to BGR, “the Renoir offers a Schneider-Kreuznach Lens and a Xenon flash which on paper (and in practice) outperforms the cheap plastic lens and dual LED flash of the Pixon. The Renoir also has an active autofocus which the reviewer deems superior to the Pixon’s passive autofocus.”

P@sco, a cool Italian dude posted a review of the N85. The review is entirely in Italian and contains some decent screenshots.All About Symbian picked it up and one of their members translated the key points of the review.

I’ve taken a few points from their article, but I recommend checking All About Symbian for more.

iPhone SMS threading makes for amazing conversations

iPhone threaded sms

How great is this photo? I have no idea what this person is talking about but if there was an award for Most Amazing SMS Conversation, it would win. This is the first time I’ve seen something worth posting on a tech blog from LastNightsParty. Usually it’s models who are on the verge of OD’ing on cocaine. Actually wait, this is probably no different.

Virtua Fighter Mobile - a little before its time

Virtua Fighter Mobile

It isn’t quite time for Virtua Fighter Mobile. We have the processor power to handle vs battle games, but we’ll need some better controls first. The hardest game to play on mobile has got to be Street Fighter. At least Virtua Fighter is mostly based in the P,P,P,K kind of fighting, whereas Street Fighter is like QCFx2 + P. That’s just not happening on mobile.

Free iPhone porn sites reviewed

iPhone porn grid

These kind of articles might dissuade advertisers to post on the site but that’s just too bad. The world needs to know that there is no such thing as free iPhone porn. Sorry. I’ve done a ton of research on this subject. I have gone to every single site that claims to offer “free iPhone porn” in an attempt to write a review and showcase the best one, but none of them offer anything close to what redtube dot com, for example, could offer.

I’m not the kind of guy whose ready to start paying for iPhone porn, so although I’m sure there are great sites out there offering quality paid porn, I’m not down. Pornography should be free and only if you’re into some wild kinky niche stuff should you have to pay. I mean, balloon popping porn is hard to shoot and takes a really creative mind to put together, so that stuff needs funding.

Cute French girls love the iPhone and mobile web

Cute French girl

This is a video of a cute girl from France
talking about how much she loves her iPhone and how helpful it is for University. In the video she mentions the following benefits:

  • I can use my mobile Internet to access course notes
  • I can listen to music
  • I can listen to online news to prepare for a lecture
  • I can check where my lectures are located before leaving for school
  • She also says that “it’s true that many sites are not accessible on the mobile, and it’s becoming increasingly frustrating.” After the girl talks about her phone, you can listen to various French experts talk about how the mobile web is becoming increasingly part of our lives and how important it is. I just want more of the French girl. Ah the benefits of being Canadian. Understanding hot French chicks. Lovely.

    The future of mobile web browsing - better than PC

    the future of mobile web browsing

    I was reading a post today on MobilizedTV, coming from the Mobile Content & Marketing Expo in San Jose California. Back at CTIA, we gave you a first look at the Skyfire mobile web browser. Nitin Bhandari, CEO of Skyfire, had a keynote at MC&ME where he talked about the future of mobile web browsing and it got me thinking.

    Mobile Content 2008: Best Mobile Game

    The Best Mobile Game category was taken by Sketcher 2. Sketcher 2 is a really great game that involves simple keypad buttons and fast-paced action. Personally, I’ve always felt that a good mobile game creates an experience that is entertaining, but doesn’t require too much user input. It should almost play the game for you. For example, one button games don’t require much input, but they can provide a ton of fun by what that one button does. Sketcher 2 doesn’t require many buttons, but the cinematic effects that follow a simple button push, make the game incredibly fun. According to Mobile Content 2008, a good mobile:

    “is regarded as the most popular content in the mobile era, delivering fun and enjoyment to users. Using 3D and broadband technologies, it provides not only virtual reality but also connected experience with other synchronous users. The category encompasses all the games made fit on mobile handsets and devices.
