Philips X650: The Everlasting Battery!

Philips X650We all know that Philips is known for their phones – specifically they are known for their phones because of the fact that their phones last forever.  The Xenium series is the one with the battery life and I am pleased to report that they have a brand new phone to add to the family … the Philips X650.  This particular phone is actually a slider and it is so cool looking that you might think you are in the future.

The Philips X650 features a 2.4-inch TFT LCD display with 240 x 320 resolution and 262K colors, a 3.2MP autofocus camera, an FM radio, a 30MB internal memory, a microSD card slot, Bluetooth, a USB port and comes with an remarkable battery lifetime that lasts up to 8 hours in talk-time, or up to one month in stand-by mode.

Although the pricing and availability is still a mystery, it has to be said that the Philips X650 is a phone that people are going to want … me included!

The LG LX290 Slider Phone For Sprint!

LG LX290To be honest – I try to avoid Sprint phones simply because the Sprint service all together is terrible.  I used to be a Sprint customer for years, however I switched on over to T-Mobile and I could not be happier!  However, Sprint is coming out with some of the coolest phones in the world … the LG LX290 is one of the them.  This phone is actually a slider phone and it is by far one phone that I think that you may need to check out.

While it is little, it is still a slider phone that is pretty cheap (it runs about $29.99 after $50.00 mail-in rebate), the cool thing about this phone is that you have all of the technology of the bigger phones in a small phone.  The LG LX290 offers a 1.33 x 1.77 inches QVGA TFT screen, a 1.3MP camera with 2x digital zoom, GPS (Sprint Navigation), Picture Messaging, Bluetooth, NFL Mobile Live, a 2.5mm headset jack and a 950 mAh battery for up to 6 hours of talk time.

All of this for that low price?  Incredible!  So give Sprint a chance and at least check out this cool looking LG phone!
