A Look at DROID 4 Accessories: Two LapDocks, Two HD Docks and Wireless Keyboard with Trackpad

by: | posted 11.27.11 | Accessories, News

The DROID 4 should be here in just a couple of weeks on December 8, so I’m sure some of you were wondering what the accessory situation would look like. Since the DROID 3 missed out on LapDocks and other webtop goodies, would this phone get compatibility with them? It most certainly will. As you can see in the image up top, the whole array of docks, LapDocks, car docks and keyboards are on the list. The wireless keyboard with trackpad seems fairly new, so we’ll be on the lookout for the improvements made to it over the standard Bluetooth option.

This truly is a RAZR with a keyboard and slightly smaller screen. Check out the full specs here and press shots of the device here.

Living Social Deal: $25 for $50 Worth of Verizon Accessories or to Spend on a New Phone

by: | posted 11.25.11 | Accessories, Deals, News

In the spirit of Black Friday, we thought we should point out today’s Living Social deal. If you fork out $25, Verizon will give you $50 to spend on accessories or towards the purchase of a new phone. So drop $25, get an extra $25 to spend on new toys. Not a bad deal at all.

Buy.

Cheers Andrew and Ilan!

Lucky DL Reader Cruises Into Verizon Store, Walks Out With Galaxy Nexus…Accessories

by: | posted 11.17.11 | Accessories, News

Such a tease, I know. A reader was lucky enough to walk into a Verizon store and pick up some accessories ahead of the Galaxy Nexus‘ launch though. Stores started to receive them last week, but most were unwilling to sell them to anyone. Aside from the case and screen protectors you are seeing above, we are also expecting there to be a desktop dock available for $59.99 and a car mount for $39.99. No word yet on if there will be an extended battery and cover – from what we’re hearing now, it’s just like any other LTE phone on battery, and could certainly use one.

Galaxy Nexus Accessory List Shows Standard Battery of 1850mAh, HDMI Portrait-style Desktop Dock Priced at $59.99

by: | posted 11.14.11 | Accessories, News

The Euro version of the Samsung Galaxy Nexus that will be available this week (November 17), is powered by a 1750mAh battery. That’s not too shabby for a standard battery these days. Most of us in the states though, were worried that there may not be enough juice in that size of battery to get us through a day of use on Verizon’s 4G LTE network. Talk of it being bumped to 1850mAh surfaced within the last week or so, and I’d say we just confirmed that with the screenshot you are seeing above. In the top right corner, you can see that the “in box” standard battery will be 1850mAh. Feel a little better about the phone now?

Also on the list is the an HDMI portrait-style desktop dock, vehicle mount and a bunch of your other standard accessories like cases and screen protectors. Picture of the dock with a $59.99 price tag after the break.   

DROID RAZR Accessory Pricing, MotoACTV Will Be Available Via Direct Fill

by: | posted 10.27.11 | Accessories, News

If you pre-ordered a DROID RAZR today, then you are likely looking at the massive list of accessories that can accompany it. HD Dock in mind? One of the two Lapdocks catch your eye? What about MotoACTV, Motorola’s fitness watch that can notify you of texts, calls and calendar items? Well, you now know exactly how much you will be paying for each of them on November 10 (the date Verizon told us to expect the device).

Speaking of the MotoACTV watch, it looks like you won’t be able to pick them up in stores, hence the “DF” note on there. “DF” stands for Direct Fill which means that Verizon would have to order it for you. If you want one, remember that they go on-sale November 6 at a variety of big electronics stores and REI for $249.

Ice Cream Sandwich Enables The Use Of Gamepads And Controllers For Your Device

by: | posted 10.21.11 | Accessories, News

Romain Guy, an Android engineer, sent out an interesting tweet this afternoon. According to Mr. Guy, Ice Cream Sandwich will let users use USB gamepads to enhance your mobile gaming experience. While some of you may just see this as another accessory you will have to spend money on, this is pretty exciting news for any gamer.

I’ve previously used Xbox controllers on my computer and it delivers a new and exciting experience to computer gaming. While some Android games work just fine on our small devices, others feel cramped and deliver a lackluster experience. Am I the only gamer smiling about this news – are any of you with me?
