Adobe Photoshop Touch for Android Review

0 comments
Photoshop Touch is one of six new Touch Apps that Adobe has released for Android tablets running Honeycomb. It is designed to bring many of Photoshop's most popular features to Android tablets, allowing creative professionals to integrate these tablets into their mobile workflow.
The Photoshop Touch app is no replacement for the desktop version of Photoshop, but it does bring many popular Photoshop tools, filters, and effects to Honeycomb tablets with a finger-friendly touch interface. Photoshop Touch connects to Adobe's Creative Cloud so you can move your work back and forth between the tablet and the desktop. You can also share images via email and Facebook, though sadly there was no Twitter option.

Samsung Galaxy Nexus Review

0 comments
In the world of Android, we see a lot of new phones -- and inevitably, some of them are destined to be forgotten. Samsung's new Galaxy Nexus is not one of those devices.
The Galaxy Nexus, available now in the UK, is an exceptional phone, arguably the finest Android handset to date. It's the first device to run Google's just-released Android 4.0, Ice Cream Sandwich, and will serve as the flagship phone for the platform. The Nexus name means Google had a close hand in developing the device, and that level of involvement certainly shows.

Body and display

First things first: The Galaxy Nexus is no small gadget. The phone measures 2.7in x 5.3in x 0.4in, thanks in part to its jumbo-sized 4.65in display. Despite those daunting figures, I haven't found the new Nexus to feel the least bit bulky; the phone is sleek, thin, and light - weighing in at just 4.8oz - and perfectly comfortable to hold and carry around.
It's worth noting that the LTE version will differ somewhat in its dimensions: Google lists that version of the phone as being a small amount thicker and heavier than the HSPA+ model I've been testing.
