Get blasting some asteroids with Satellite Assault for the BlackBerry PlayBook

Posted by James Richardson on 9 Feb 2013 1:35 pm
Satellite Assault for the BlackBerry PlayBook brings back a few memories for me. If you are old enough to have played Asteroids on the Atari back in the day you will remember what fun it was. Satellite Assault is not that different, apart from clearly things have improved over the last 20+ years. You control a space craft that must avoid contact with asteroids that appear on screen. Blasting...

Three UK will offer customers LTE without the premium price

Posted by DJ Reyes on 9 Feb 2013 12:35 pm
At the moment, EE is the only carrier to offer LTE (or 4G) in the U.K. Even though Orange and T-Mobile are part of EE, you must go on an EE specific contract to avail of the 4G speeds. This also comes at a premium and with it only reaching certain cities around the country, some may say it is not currently worth getting an EE contract for 4G just yet. Three UK has recently announced that...

Feature Focus: BlackBerry Z10 camera

Posted by Simon Sage on 9 Feb 2013 10:17 am
The camera on the BlackBerry Z10 has been a point of contention among many reviewers, so we thought it prudent to take a closer look at the quality of pictures it takes and the software features available. We already touched on the broad strokes in our BlackBerry Z10 review, but just to recap... Camera Specifications The BlackBerry Z10 has a ⅓-inch 8 megapixel back side illumination sensor (...

How to change the default search engine in BlackBerry 10

Posted by Bla1ze on 9 Feb 2013 12:33 am
If you've picked a BlackBerry Z10, opened up the web browser and found your default search engine set to Bing there is a good chance you're looking for a way to quickly change that. Unless of course, you like Bing. Getting it changed was quite honestly a bit of a task on BlackBerry 7 but with BlackBerry 10 it only takes a few seconds to accomplish: Open up your web browser and start typing a...

The ability to hide your porn now requires an app on BlackBerry 10

Posted by Bla1ze on 8 Feb 2013 7:54 pm
*UPDATE* - I found another way as pointed out to me by Dave at BBThemes. If you zip files using the file manager, you can preview them from within the zip but they won't get indexed in the pictures app. Thanks, Dave! Look, like it or not people keep porn on their smartphones. You've all likely heard the stories of phones being returned with porn on them along with all the documented accounts of...

First Look: BlackBerry Z10 Multimedia Pod

Posted by James Richardson on 8 Feb 2013 4:37 pm
It was only yesterday that we posted regarding the possibility of a charging dock for the BlackBerry Z10. Whether there would or wouldn't be an official one was still up in the air - until now. The above image arrived in my inbox today (named multimedia pod) and it is safe to say that this will be the official BlackBerry Z10 sync/charge pod. I'm pretty stoked to see this as I hate not using...
