Strapya has done it again. And by it, I of course mean they designed a phone accessory that looks almost exactly like real food (I’m pretty sure if you look up “it” in the dictionary, that’s the proper definition). Not a crafted felt case, but a goodness to honest realistic food case. Available in eggs with bacon, bento, tonkatsu and ...

Clamshell cellphones are well on their way out, quickly being replaced by flat touchscreens. In fact, we haven’t even posted about a clamshell style device since 2008. I’ve gathered quite an arsenal of broken cellphones over the years, whether they were dropped in the toilet or just plain overused, a lot of clamshell models had relatively short lifespans, at least ...

While there have been plenty of performance comparisons between the iPhone 3GS and the iPhone 4 and even the iPhone 4 and other big name smartphones, I haven’t seen any thorough examination of the differences between all four of the models in their entirety. This video shows just how drastic the performance differences are between the first device and the ...

The ironic thing about this End Call decal is that once the decal is put over the antenna, touching that area will no longer interfere with your signal. I love the idea, I really do. And oddly enough, if Apple decided to officially license this decal, it would probably make a lot of money. Especially at $29 a pop. But, ...

The Japanese equivalent of our homeland’s NES, the Nintendo Famicom (short for Family Computer) system is no doubt the system that influenced modern Japenese game designers the most during their childhood. Everyone had one. It was like the Dial Soap or the Michael Jackson’s Thriller of the Japanese youth. Famicom made a splash worldwide for the long-lasting effect it would ...

It’s no mystery that Apple’s App Store dominates the mobile app market they way things currently stand. The closest competitor is Google and they don’t even release their numbers. So it’s hard to really place a marker on the current gap between the big two. A quick glance at the infographic after the jump tells you a few things you ...

Poor iPhone 4. Born with an open wound. Bound to a destiny of dropped calls and low bars. All because of an injury that could have been healed if handled by the right engineers. iPhone 4, your life was cut short and it’s not fair. We understand. And that’s why we have every intention of covering your wounds with Antenn-aids. ...

Right from the horse’s mouth. Steve Jobs announced at the iPhone 4 press conference that Apple will be giving all iPhone 4 users a free case for your phone. But since they can’t make enough Bumpers to fill the demand, Apple will allows users to pick their own cases which Apple will source. If users still aren’t happy they are ...

Scandal. Outrage. Schadenfreude. All words easily used to describe Apple’s little iPhone 4 situation. Rumors today suggested that Steve Jobs was well aware of the iPhone 4’s reception issues, possibly as early as last year in the very early design stages of the device’s development, thanks to a heady antennae expert by the name of Ruben Caballero. A “carrier partner” ...

OK, so it might not be an Apple-approved model, but it gets the job done. For $250, which is more than the phone itself, even when bought with a new wireless contract, ColorWare will paint your iPhone 4 (much like they did for previous models) in any color combination you desire. So, yeah, for $250 you’re paying for a little ...
