The HTC Rezound is now available on Verizon Wireless. The big draw of the Rezound is its heavy Beats by Dr. Dre integration and its 4G LTE connectivity. We got a chance to check out the device when HTC unveiled it on Nov. 3 and found it to be another strong entry into Verizon’s library of LTE phones. It’s the third of four known dual-core 4G LTE devices coming to the carrier this year. The Droid Bionic and Droid Razr are already out and the Samsung Galaxy Nexus is coming in the next couple weeks, from what we hear. 

We’ve included some links to our hands-on impressions and videos of the device in action below, but here are some specs. The handset has a 4.3-inch screen with a 720p display, a 1.5GHz dual-core processor, 1GB of RAM, an 8MP rear camera that can shoot slow motion (HTC has industry leading cameras), and cost $300 with a two-year contract. The Rezound will ship with Android 2.3 (Gingerbread), but HTC has promised an Android 4.0 (Ice Cream Sandwich) upgrade in the coming months.

This is the iPhone concept of my dreams
iPhone concept mimicking iPad Pro desgn.

It’s an odd day to be talking about iPhone design. Yesterday, Apple delivered what can be called the pinnacle of tablet aesthetics with the 2024 iPad Pro, which is even slimmer than the iPod Nano. Today, Bloomberg reports that Duncan Kerr -- a design executive from the legendary Jony Ive group and was a key figure behind the iPhone, iPad, and Mac products since 1999 -- is leaving the company.

It’s a great loss for Apple and disheartening news for iPhone enthusiasts. Apple almost seems obsessed with the design language it introduced with the iPhone 11 series. And if recent leaks are any indication, we are going back to the iPhone X days with the non-Pro iPhone 16 models later this year.

I spent five days wearing an Apple Watch clone, and now I’m angry
A person wearing the Huawei Watch Fit 3.

The Huawei Watch Fit 3 really makes me angry. Not because of the way it works or anything it does, but because of its lazy design, which makes it look like an Apple Watch.

It’s not a passing resemblance, it’s not subtle, and no one will need the similarities pointed out to get what I’m talking about. It’s a straight clone, and it’s extremely disappointing. What makes it worse is that the Huawei Watch Fit 3 is actually a very good smartwatch underneath — assuming you can get past its Apple Watch "inspiration."
