The Palm Pre. Palm’s quick-thinking solution in order to get into the new age of smartphones. Has it? It surely has, that you can say. While webOS 1.4 though has gotten faster and more responsive, it still leaves much to be desired. Review is after the break.

By far one of the cheapest cameras around, the FH1 is a 12-megapixel point-and-shoot camera with an HD video mode. It retails with a MSRP of $159.95, so that’s probably one of the closest rock-bottom prices you’ll find for a camera. Despite the cheap price, extremely modest looks, and of course the branding, the FH1 isn’t the type of digital camera you can mess around with in modern times: 5x optical zoom, a 28mm wide-angle lens, High Speed Auto Focus, HD video recording, Optical Image Stabilization, and an ISO range of up to 1600. Does it take great pictures? Read on to find out.

The first camera ever to show up here is a little over a year old. That doesn’t mean the Stylus Tough 6000 has lost its ability to take pictures. It’s waterproof to 10 feet, shockproof to 5 feet, and can withstand temperatures of down to 14 degrees Fahrenheit. Since this is a pretty simple point-and-shoot I’ll just go over price, durability, and the pictures and videos it takes. Check out the review after the break where we see if this $300 camera is worth it.

Say the word “Blackberry”. The first thing that comes to mind is an elegant young man walking around New York City with his briefcase, sleek and expensive suit, and his – Blackberry Storm2. The Storm2 improves upon the mistakes of the original Storm, while still retaining its good looks, great network, and reasonable price. The look and feel of the Storm2 is a nearly well-crafted experience; a strong presence, but not intimidating. In simpler words, it has enough solid features to make it the “flagship” BlackBerry. In-depth review after the break. Oh, and better late then never, right? We’ve finally reviewed a Blackberry.

With all of the buzz surrounding the M11x, the smaller sibling of the Alienware gaming notebook line, the M15x had to eventually come in and show which notebook can really perform. The Alienware M15x is all about power. And only power. It weighs a full 9 pounds with a 9-cell battery installed. And a side note for you all: you’ve probably read a thousand reviews of the M15x with a Core i7 processor, but have you ever read one with a 2.0 GHz Intel Core i7? Not many of those for sure. That’s why it’s the most powerful (and awesome looking) ever featured on LaptopMemo. Full review of course is after the jump.

MSi released the X600 as the larger cousin of the X340, a line of ultraportables that are slim, inexpensive, and look very good for their price range. To phrase it all up in a simple sentence, the X-Series line is a “poor man’s Macbook Air”. Although the price is much lower than its main competitors, the X600 has power and affordability that has yet to be matched by other ultra-sleek computers. That of course, does not mean everything is “happy go lucky”. Nevertheless, the X600 packs a serious punch.

Remember the T-Mobile G1? The very first Android phone? Remember that it has no sense of style and nearly no battery? Well, if you don’t, let me refresh your mind. With talk of the “Official” Google Phone right now, aka the “Nexus One”, it is probably good policy to give a review of the phone that’s closet to being the official Google Phone. I’ll be dividing the review into a few important categories so it’s easy to read and understand. Check it out after the jump.

The Samsung Behold II is a disappointing smartphone. From the looks, buttons, interface, and even the screen, the Behold II needs tons of improvements. And it was this close to being a great contender against Android phones like the Droid and HTC Hero. It’s talent wasted.

You saw the hands-on and now you see the review! To start off, this loaner handset was provided by HTC for review, as well as all other handsets reviewed on LaptopMemo. Read the Disclosure Policy for more info.
The Sprint Hero itself:
You have Android 1.5, and even though it’s old, it gets the job done. Now to clarify the latter sentence. It gets the job done, it doesn’t blow it out the window. Explanation: Google Maps works great, Sprint 3G is great, the multitouch feature is perfect for those missing the iPhone’s pinch and zoom feature. Even Android 1.5 is great with the Sense UI installed, but the only problem is….
