For example, there is a gap for the SIM card slot on the AT&T version that isn’t needed for the Verizon skin. The Sprint version is identical to the Verizon version as well. Design wise the iPhone 4s is actually nearly identical to the original iPhone 4 they are very similar. Remember though, all iPhone 4 Screens should fit perfectly across all the iPhone 4 variants regardless of carrier.

Alright, that’s all for now. See you guys next time!

When the Motorola Xoom was launched, it was termed as an iPad killer. And, it was especially priced expensively compared to the iPad. The fact is that there is very little that makers of tablets can do in order to differentiate their creations from others in the market. However, Motorola seems to have done enough to stand out from the rest with some tweaks in design. Featuring an all-black tablet, the Xoom has round edges with a rubberized and textured rear that breaks a quarter way from the top. You will find the top part more velvety and smoother than the bottom part. Similar to other tablets in the market, the ports can be found at the edges. It features mini-HDMI and mini-USB ports at the bottom along with the charger port and docking input, and it has a 3.5mm headphone jack along with a SIM card and microSD slot.

Compared to other Android tablets, the Xoom doesn’t feature any buttons on the front. You will just find a front camera along with the 10.1 inch screen. You may feel that the lack of buttons may reduce its ranking but surprisingly, the Xoom achieves the opposite. It helps give a modern and more sophisticated look to the Xoom compared to other tablets. Compared to its newer rival: the Galaxy Tab 10.1 , the Xoom is more a double handed device. It’s larger and heavier and can’t really be used too long being held by a single hand. However, you would notice that the Xoom feel sturdier than the thinner tablets in its class.

Its features include Android 3.4 OS, a 10.1 inch diagonal capacitive touch screen, 1GB LP DDR2 RAM, Dual Core NVIDIA T20 processor, and expandable microSD memory slot with maximum capacity of 32 G. For those who are more eager to know the camera configurations, the rear camera is a 5.0 megapixel feature with flash and the front camera is a 2.0 megapixel feature. The connectivity features on Xoom include wifi b/g/n, 3G, upgradeable 4G and Bluetooth 2.1. The tablet has an overall weight of 1.61 pounds. Compared to the 0.75 inch bezel found in the iPad, the Xoom is slimmer with a 0.5 inch bezel round the screen. It may be a tiny difference, but it is still a major variation in many ways. When you are holding the tablet in portrait, it is easier to get the thumbs across the screen. This makes easier to thumb type on the screen as compared to the iPad.

The Xoom really makes a lot of score when it comes to the keyboard. It offers you sufficient space between the virtual keys, making typing easier in both portrait and landscape orientations. The Xoom keyboard also offers multi-touch support for fast typing along with emoticon keys, dedicated tab and a dedicated button that helps you instantly jump to the keyboard settings. You will find the Xoom keys a little more rectangular and smaller compared to the iPad keys. However, you will find the performance to be faster and more precise.

Back in the spring of 2011, the Xoom became one of the hottest selling Skinomi Screen protectors of all time. Even months after it was released our protectors for the Xoom are still selling well which means the device hasn’t been forgotten, even with all of the new Android Tablet choices like selection of Asus Transformer, Screen and Skin Protectors. If you own a Xoom or are looking into owning one. Check out some of our Carbon Fiber Xoom Skins, or Skinomi Lightwood Xoom Skins or Skinomi Darkwood Xoom protectors. Skinomi Skin protectors arn’t just for show, they can really go a long way in protecting your devices from scratches, dents, and wear.

In its continuous contribution to add a set of killer devices, HTC has released its amazing handset Amaze 4G. There are two things special and direct about the Amaze 4G – it is among the fastest T-Mobile phones and it has among the best cameras you can find anywhere on a phone. The HTC Amaze 4G is a step ahead of the Sensation 4G released a few months prior. It has a better display a more proficient camera and faster data speeds. Even though the design has stuck to the earth-colored hues, there are slight changes with techie black and silver taking the place of deep brown. It has a 4.3 inch screen with qHD resolution of 960 x 540 pixels. This high resolution makes graphics, icons and text look smooth and clean.

When it comes to signal, the Amaze 4G performs great on the signal tests. It was found to be always connected during tests and never dropped down to touch the edge, and the speed was also regularly fast. The Amaze 4G has a larger display, a dual core 1.5 GHz processor and a fast 4G access. All this means it needs to have a good battery. If you are going to use it regularly, then it needs to be charged at night. The Amaze has the latest Sense 3.0 software along with Android 2.3.4 Gingerbread. The home panels on the Sense are almost the same as found in the earlier versions. There is the regular weather widget along with new watch and music widgets.

There are many ways you can listen music on the Amaze. You have the FM radio, Slacker and the HTC music player. Even though the music application is not entirely Android, it has a new skin to blend with the Sense 3.0, but the features are unchanged. When using Google Music, you will have to download the latest Android music player for access.

When you want to enjoy video, the HTC Amaze 4G has several options available. You have the Mobile TV app from T-mobile, the YouTube app and one latest service known as Watch. This is a movie rental or download service from HTC. It has a home screen widget where you can scroll through the library of videos you have purchased and you can play them directly on the home screen.

The HTC Amaze 4G has an 8 mega pixel camera having special buttons, image stabilization, constant focus, face and blink detection and lots more. You don’t have to unlock the phone in order to use the camera. You will find some easy controls on the screen’s side for adjusting the modes and flash without accessing the menu. You can also use these controls to jump between the video camera and the camera facing the user. Other controls can be found only in the menu button. There is the unique feature of touch-to-focus, where if you want the camera to focus on a spot, you can touch press it. The Android browser in Amaze has new looks from HTC. It is fast no doubt, but it has slicker looks compared to earlier version.

Skinomi’s Amaze 4G Skins are currently available right now. Our Full Body designs completely cover the device and are very easy to install. As of this writing our Carbon Fiber Skins for the Amaze have become especially popular enhancing the black vs white build of the device. But our Natural Wood series skins are also receiving praise for durability as well as adding some color to the “Storm Trooper” look of the phone as one customer pointed out. Our screen protectors are also on sale on AMAZON.com Check them out, Skinomi TechSkin protectors add protection without adding any weight and are no doubt “Amazing” in their own way.

The Amazon Kindle Fire was one of the hottest selling devices over the holiday season. (It was literally a… fire sale.) The Kindle Fire, was the first truly capable Android Tablet for 199$. It features a vibrant 7″ IPS screen similar to the iPad, a swift Dual Core Processor, the revolutionary Amazon Silk Web Browser, and instant access to the massive breadth of Amazon Apps, Books, Videos, and Games. Probably the most important aspect of the new Kindle Fire is its incredible price point that break a family’s budget or bring geeks everywhere further into recession.

Most Android tablets are placed close to the the price point of the iPad or iPad 2. Unfortunately perhaps because of a combination of ridiculously high prices (like the  650$ Xoom?) as well as the painful lack of options in apps and games. Android tablets in general are not doing as well compared to the iPad, iPad 2, and the New iPad. As of this writing there may only be about 3.4 million Android Tablets sold compared to the far lager numbers of Apple iPads in the field. However this trend may have been turned around with the Kindle Fire.

The Kindle Fire, though lacking the larger screens, newer processors, and fancy 3D cameras of its other Android Kin has the complete backing of Amazon. The focus of the Kindle Fire is going to be very similar to the Kindle E Readers, which will be to sell great Amazon Products: Amazon Music (is already one of the great contenders to iTunes with its DRM free easy downloads), Amazon’s Books (which will soon outnumber those found in every library in the world),  and Movies (which will be great for Amazon Prime members). Going forward, as Android apps continue to improve in quality and numbers the Kindle Fire should continue to be a great entertainment source for those who purchased it. There are currently rumors of a new larger Amazon Tablet on the horizon. Will a larger Amazon tablet finally take on the iPad in the numbers game or culturally at that? Only time will tell.

Finally, despite the Kindle Fire’s great price and decent build quality it still needs the best kind of protection out there. If you haven’t done so already check out our selection of Skinomi Kindle Fire Skins and Screens. For each product we create, our designers make sure that design is custom tailored for each device for an easy, perfect fit, with every installation. We offer a wide range of options such as Carbon Fiber, Natural Wood, Brushed Metal, and Dry-Install options.
