CES 2012 Round-Up (Droid 4, Droid RAZR MAXX, HTC Titan 2, Nokia Lumia 900, Galaxy Note, and more!)

[tuvok449]

You know, Nokia has some pretty unique design features too, that I think can take on Sony's design! Just take the Nokia N9, Lumia 800 and Lumia 900 design type. I have never seen anything like those phones in terms of design.

[tuvok449]

I think that even though the HTC Titan 2 has twice the megapixel count of the Nokia Lumia 900, I think that the Lumia 900 is better because it has the highly hyped Carl Zeiss lens and the actual sensor is smaller, so it is harder to smudge the lense with your finger.

[shanesmith25]

I'm up to 29min n haven't hurd u talk about the new Sony phone.Didn't have time to watch the whole video but did u talk about it?

Thanks for ur video !

[dkjay22]

thanks for the information

[ShaneDawsonSoAwsum]

Thnxs guys. I'm probably gonna go with Android and most likely a Galaxy S2. I really want the Epic 4G Touch in white. So Android it is.

[BlubberOwl]

I LOVE T-Mobile.The only carrier that cares~ Never had a problem with them the past 12 years.

[mosesE7]

@PhoneDogSydney Any idea which website i could get it from straight from my phone?

[reddnmilla]

I agree with you about distinguishing b/w high end, mid and low end phones... the lines are definitely blurred... I consider my Triumph Mid-Range

[venomloc66]

Damn where the hell is t mobile lol

[SageModeCupcake]

@kiman

[majorsmoo]

I was about to say through this whole thing i didnt hear anything about tmobile phones YIKES! i saw this design for an 'htc ville" but it didnt look like i heard any phones at all wow they are in trouble

[callmemarc]

Sydney, why do you look so gray?

[thachillest1]

Sydney, it's funny how you kept saying that the new Android devices didn't seem to be much different from their predecessors, but when I look at the Lumia 710 and 900, the latter only has a larger screen, a FF camera, LTE, and an additional 8 GB (still negligible in my opinion). Oh yeah, and it does look better - but is that going to be worth an extra 200? Windows Phone doesn't have enough differentiation between its lower end and higher end... and this isn't trolling but frustration.

[skiptopher]

@thachillest1 I think you could look at that two ways. A pessimist would say that the high end devices aren't high enough. You could also say that the low end devices (thankfully?) aren't as low in comparison. Which you do find on android. It's a matter of opinion I suppose

[thachillest1]

@skiptopher You make a good point; however, as an Android user I only purchase high-end devices. So, if I were ever to purchase a Windows Phone, I would like to feel that my money went towards that end. For one, I'm still waiting for a Windows Phone that offers 32 GB or more.

[skiptopher]

@thachillest1 That is a valid point as well. I didn't really understand that's what you were getting at with the first comment. I suppose there are ways WP devices could separate themselves from each other by adding More, to then help justify a higher price point. I would assume they are working on that, but for now I see what you are saying.

[kiman2]

Sydney, do you have a hard stop about the length of the show? I personally don't care if you go over an hour... if I need to go somewhere, I'll just leave. If you want to keep going, I don't think anyone minds.

[thachillest1]

@kiman2 I don't mind, either!

[ROCKSTARARUNESH]

@kiman2 why would u mind u have watch it on youtube

[kiman2]

Photo quality is not only about lens but a combo of sensor size and sensitivity, lens quality, and software (noise reduction, sharpening, etc). On phones, the sensor and lens will be tiny compared to p&s cameras, much less dslr. Cramming in 16mp into a tiny sensor sounds like a desperate move by HTC and is insulting (hey, boost the mp count, the idiot consumers will flock to it!). In general, less pixels in a given sensor area = better quality. IP4S has a better sensor compared to other phones.

[amazinglasers]

I got the GN hoping nothing amazing was gonna come out. Well, what we got here, an LG on verizon to replace the revolution? No, I made a good choice. :P

[cretulicabz]

wow someone who pronounces nokia right

[sdsbhatia]

talk abt the playbook os 2

[Mr2Young2KnowBetter]

am I the only one getting tired of cell phone makers putting out a new phone weeks after they just released one its getting ridiculous how many galaxy phones they have out now. I am not exactly a fan of apple but at least they know how to leave you wanting more.

[thetreverpitts]

Samsung Galaxy Note looks nice

[beasthockeyplayer4]

I wish the lumia 900 was on verizon...

[Gripdagr8one]

Gotta leave'm wantibg more, lol. I know some of us can stand an hour and a half....I watch this from beginning to end every time over here on YouTube and it doesn't seem like an hour.

[Jstroman221]

Droid 4 is not a world phone. Late do sent work well with gsm

[Bsaefong]

@junu7933 the verge

[Jstroman221]

Bigger is always better Sydney. You know that. Even you should last the night with a 3,000 may battery. I'm not a prev

[lordblackbatman]

wow this girl is so beatifull sydney u need to be my girl babe search me in facebook lordblackhulk@yahoo.com i work for marvel comics we come do some work together in the new movie the avengers love your voice

[JasperStevens1]

dancin on that white girl call me john travolta !!!!

[zd111809]

when i hold my wp7 mango device even with a single core 1 ghz processor i never have lag.. i have 20 or so games downloaded and maybe 15 apps and i never lag.. sometimes specs dont always matter.. you have to take into consideration performance.. having over 100+ apps/games just to show off to your friends isnt that important to us with sense.. wp7 is slowly rising in popularity and slowly people are going to realize that quality over quantity is what truly matters..

[bluekillz1994]

@zd111809 Same here. What WP7 phone do you have? I have the Samsung Omnia 7. Apart from the battery life it is amazing.

[zd111809]

@bluekillz1994 well i just got the htc radar from tmobile on the 4th.. i've always wanted a white phone haha.. i know its no htc titan 2 or anything like that but wow.. no lag no bugs or anything.. dont think ill ever go back to android.. not even for the s2.. ill take my ghz processor with no problems over android anyday.. the only thing id leave wp7 for now is prob the iphone.. if tmobile ever gets there..

[sukiaki96]

could you do some coverage on intel's phone?

[PhoneDogSydney]

@sukiaki96 It was on my list but we didn't have time for it. We might discuss it next week if it's still in the news.

[DitzyDom]

the 16 Megapixel camera isnt going to be as good as the 900's camera, the lens looks tiny,the images are going to be huge,yes, but they wont be great, the sensor on the 800/N9 is awesome,simple as

[SageModeCupcake]

@rose200619 Fag

[SofaKingAwesome23]

[alzain16]

[alzain16]

[alzain16]

[harrypotterfancemm]

You dont like timescape you dont like motorola user interface. Do you like the Lg' s interface???? Or touchwiz

[PhoneDogSydney]

@harrypotterfancemm TouchWiz is probably my favorite. Timescape is growing on me though.

[ortegaguadalupe]

@plshack no

[rose200619]

@ROCKSTARARUNESH and as for u wat i was trying to say is we got a better options in android than in windows mobile and then again its an individuals point of view... wat i see is better spec at the same price range... and adding to that if spec doesn't matter y all the mega brands bringing in dual core...quad core chipset... again in my point of view having a better spec makes u feel like having a desktop at ur palm.....

[rose200619]

@ELxVATOxVATO yeah... sure but if there are better spec we can do a lot of customization and make the device some thing unique and enjoyable...

[ELxVATOxVATO]

@rose200619 specs arent evreything

[rose200619]

nokia lumia 900 not worth the money when we can get a great spec phone for the same value!!!

[JSernProductions]

@rose200619 fag

[ROCKSTARARUNESH]

@rose200619 dude it the most awesome phone

titian 2 is also great

[ROCKSTARARUNESH]

@rose200619 what the fcuk r u saying

specs aren't everything

[aaqib9018709016]

OMG she is fucking good............

[JvBeanies]

What phone do you have?

[miskyhusky]

10 mins video pls



[WWEDXFANOFWWE]

Sydney What operating system would you use if windows phone never existed?

[PhoneDogSydney]

@WWEDXFANOFWWE The only two other options I would consider are Android and iOS, really. webOS doesn't have any new hardware and BlackBerry never appealed to me as a consumer, though I think it's a great OS. I still use an Android device on a daily basis along with a Windows Phone device so I'd probably stick with Android.

[WWEDXFANOFWWE]

@PhoneDogSydney I was hoping you would say that!! I'm glad to hear that you would go with Android b4 IOS. I am a Android fan myself and i would also go with Windows phone if android never existed so virtual high-five Sydney!

Ps what happen to Symbian os?

[kelkimble]

I clicked this video because of this girl.

[plshack]

hi,will Samsung galaxy s3 be coming out this year?

[whoryanp]

ya this is about the skyrocket... its all about $... they add a lil thing here and a lil thing there each time so people keep wanted the new one. i bought the skyrocket… and i will not be getting the HD one.

[ConnellDaneLaurance]

what aspect ratio is the iPad?

[gamester1416]

The sony devices had the better specs

[Winterfang]

I haven't watched this for a long time. Did you guys take a break?

[PhoneDogSydney]

@Winterfang Nope. PhoneDog Live is every Friday on Ustream!

[gunjeetsingh]

just curious shouldn't your you tube account be called "Phonebitch"? Btw kool video. I enjoyed all the updates.

[PhoneDogSydney]

@marshalsdas The Flyer is a great tablet for the price, especially now that it has received the Honeycomb update. I'd say that's a good choice.

[marshalsdas]

@PhoneDogSydney Thank you for the help...

[junu7933]

its a phablet !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[junu7933]

Galaxy Note: its not a phone its not a tablet what is it ?

[DitzyDom]

@junu7933 a Phablet

[junu7933]

@DitzyDom yes a phablet phone + tablet= phablet

[Marcthegeek]

I had the Iphone 3g, 3gs, 4 & just got bored of the UI, 5 years with the same UI, is like having the same phone for that long. Even being Jailbroken I got bored. Apple only gives you wallpapers and everybody goes nuts over that, Really!???

I switched to the Epic Touch 4G and Love it, Screen size and Speed is amazing. And all the customization is insane. And apps store has catched up, Yes it has.

I can see myself getting the Galaxy Note, cause its like a small tablet with phone features.

[harsimransingh13]

I wish my girl was tech savy as you ! - haha Cute

[LOLhahahahaa]

OMG, but I thought women weren't allowed to go to CES.....

[xxxecutive1]

Sydney,Is Quad Core Really a Big Deal Compared to Dual Core Phones? What do you think?

[PhoneDogSydney]

@xxxecutive1 For Android it is. Nvidia's new Tegra 3 processor is also more battery efficient.

[Cryengine]

loosen up that shirt sydney babydoll...

lulz

[scarfire87]

y u so 360p? >.<

[Chillz261088]

Dang.. You look soo palee today

[angel2901]

You always bitch about Android!

[Cryengine]

@angel2901 yup

[JaBunGa23]

wow a year ago htc had 10-20 phones on their website......now they have 53

[TheSlipknot9161]

I met aaron at ces he's a nice guy irl

[Zanbanana1]

we do enjoy it

[3babyjo]

u talk too much adn ht to understand

[Phenom69ll]

@ShaneDawsonSoAwsum Iphone is a very reliable, good battery life, responsive display, very good, small OS . Android is a little slower, highly customizable, and its open source, which means ppl can make custom frimwares.

So its really yours to decide.

[pyro74boy]

@Phenom69ll In what way is Android slower vs the iphone? that sounds like a very misleading comment to me what Android phone are you trying to compare to the iphone? . The only I agree with you about is batery life the rest of this is untrue,.

[Jferrari427]

4 inches on a phone is plenty. Above that the phone because cumbersome to use, and funny looking near your head while your on a call.

[mosesE7]

Ive been asking this everywhere how do I get the newest android market mine got downgraded when i got a new Inspire.I would like the official update if possible.

[PhoneDogSydney]

@mosesE7 You can download the .apk from the internet. Just do a simple Google search for it. However, your phone should automatically update it eventually. It shouldn't take very long.

[TeddieBearRAWR]

were there any iPod Touch competitors announced at all?

[TheJermanRamirez]

@ShaneDawsonSoAwsum I suggest android if you want more, but you have to know what your doing. also pick a good android they are all different some worse than others. at the moment the best are the galaxy nexus or galaxy s2 (imo the s2 is a bit better) but it might be better if you wait for the s3

[ShaneDawsonSoAwsum]

Should I go with iPhone or Android?? What do y'all think??

[vmmini91]

@ShaneDawsonSoAwsum android if ur into customization and specs iphone if u want something basic

[pyro74boy]

@ShaneDawsonSoAwsum Android all the way don't mess with the iphone you will be sorry if you do.

[Xylotomist]

lol @ people who are hating on us Verizon users complaining. The Razr MAXX isn't anything new. Just a Razr with a bigger battery and the Droid 4 is a Razr with a keyboard. Wow, that's so exciting. You can still get unlimited data too, there are work arounds/tricks to getting it. So everyone can shut it. Yeah my Razr might be getting ICS but I'll probably have to wait until the end of damn 2012.

[khans620]

sony xperia s

[zd111809]

i think my limit is 3.8 to 4.0 inches.. even 4.3 is okay.. but 5.3.. wow

[zd111809]

@zd111809 oh and btw id totally buy a dual core 4 inch super amoled display phone.. if its cheap.. wow $50 is nice omg

[djletitrock1324]

Damn. People on Verizon are ungrateful. U have like 6 phones getting ICS and yaw don't come out wit enough good phones? There's a new member of the Droid Family every month? I'd go to Verizon but can't get unlimited data. Just stfu dude.

[halfcab123]

such a hottie... :)

[halfcab123]

@pyro74boy how was that a fail, Verizon has the Galaxy Nexus...

[WhosYourChubby]

What a B**ch. 

[pyro74boy]

What was Verizon thinking when they did not put the Samsung GS2 on there network. This was a huge epic fail

[Fpricky]

Verizon meed to go out with some more phones

[pyro74boy]

The iphone is one of the most over rated devices off all time. END OF STORY.

[lilpackerfreak]

i just got a new phone cuz i couldnt wait for the Nokia Lumia. Now i kinda wish i waited.

[Xylotomist]

damn verizon not releasing any good phones, ugh.

[FantomLightning]

@Xylotomist Try being on Sprint... You have no right to complain... You guys have the RAZR series

[rKanoRx1]

Are any windows 8 phones gonna come out? :P

[ipie1000]

Awesome video! First!
