Samsung Galaxy S II has been priced by a couple of UK retailers and the category they've placed it in is the distinctly high end.

Expansys is listing £630 ($1,020) for the unlocked handset, while Play.com has it at £600 ($971) and is promising a March 31st release date.

But do not forget the fact that Play was showing the cost only yesterday, so pricing still seems to be fluctuating and finding its sweet spot.

March 10th has been announced as the HTC Thunderbolt final release date. This info comes by way of a “handset line up” sheet from Best Buy.

However we are unsure if the person how posted it took the picture today, yesterday, last week or even last month.

 

Good news for those having a Windows Phone 7 device and looking for some more games.

Beginning on April 6th, six new games will be hitting the Marketplace.

It will be Angry Birds, Plants vs. Zombies, Doodle Jump, Hydro Thunder Go, Sonic the Hedgehog 4 Episode 1 and geoDefense.

Moreover, all six of these titles will be Xbox Live friendly which means you will have access to the achievements, leaderboards and more.

The MEDIAS N094C is manufactured by NEC Casio Mobile and will be available via Docomo in Japan on March 15.

The world's thinnest smartphone has 7.7mm body of metal, with a weight of only a 105g.

It features a 4″ Gorilla Glass LCD (854 x 480) display, runs Android 2.2, a 5.1 megapixel camera capable of shooting fast shots, an e-wallet function (NFC), a 1Seg digital TV tuner, infrared, Bluetooth, GPS and WiFi.

Android-powered HTC Merge is released and is going to come to “multiple carriers” later this year. 

The device features 3.8-inch display, a full slide-out QWERTY keyboard, a 5-megapixel camera with auto-focus and flash, GPS, WiFi, and global 3G roaming capabilities, also it is powered by Android 2.2.

HTC Merge is the perfect device for those customers who are looking for a reliable mobile experience with the features and functionality of a smartphone, whether it’s at home or travelling around the world, as noted Jason Mackenzie, HTC Americas president.

Huawei handset has been revealed today by FCC. The device is running Android 2.2 (Froyo) and is going to be headed to T-Mobile.

It supports 3G/4G network and is packed with Bluetooth, camera, 3.5mm headset jack, and microUSB port.

Unfortunately, there are no further details about this device.

Best Buy has informed us that the much-anticipated HTC ThunderBolt is delayed untill March 4.

Sadly, such delay will be little more than an irritation for those itching to get their hands on Verizon’s first LTE handset.

The HTC ThunderBolt runs Android 2.2 Froyo with Sense customizations on top, has a 4.3-inch WVGA display, 8 megapixel camera with dual LED flash plus front-facing camera, 8 GB of storage with up to a 32 GB microSD memory card, 1 GHz processor with 768 MB of RAM, and the usual stuff like Wi-Fi b/g/n, GPS, and EV-DO.

The highly anticipated Android 2.3.3 update is finally rolling out to Google Nexus One and Nexus S handsets. The release will begin to roll out tonight and will take a few weeks to hit all Nexus handsets.

The latest rumor also suggests both of the Nexus-branded handsets may be the only handsets to see Android 2.3.3 as an update. The remaining recent Android handsets from Motorola, HTC and others will jump past Android 2.

The last time we heard about the HTC Thundebolt pricing, it was $249 via Best Buy.

Now the things have changed and it is available at Best Buy for $299 with a two-years agreement. The price increased for $50 for some reasons we don't know about.

If you are intended to obtained the device without contract, you will have to pay $749.

 

Reports from around the internet suggest the first Windows Phone update may cause different problems with phones and may brick them during installation.

Many Samsung owners report an extended delay during the update when the Zune software fails to complete the update.

Disconnecting the phone from the computer during the hang up forces a reboot and the original version of Windows Phone 7 is restored.
