Hands On with the HTC Droid DNA for Verizon
Today, 12:14 PM   updated Today, 1:30 PM

If the "phablet" category of super-phones blurs the line between phone and tablet, HTC is now blurring the lines even more with the Droid DNA for Verizon. With a 5-inch screen, the Droid DNA is notably larger than high-end phones with 4.7-inch screens. But put it next to a Samsung Galaxy Note II, and it's clear that the DNA doesn't quite qualify as a phablet, either. This is just one really big phone. And that 5-inch display sports ground-breaking 1080p HD resolution. We spent some time with it this morning. Read on for our first impressions.

Microsoft May Be Developing Its Own Smartphone
Nov 2, 2012, 8:39 AM

Microsoft is testing a smartphone with Asian component suppliers that it designed, reports the Wall Street Journal. Citing sources familiar with Microsoft's plans, the Journal says that the Redmond-based company is developing a Windows Phone handset with a screen that measures between four and five inches. Microsoft has not determined if it will move forward with any such plans. Traditionally, Microsoft licenses its operating system (Windows Phone) to hardware makers such as HTC, Samsung, and Nokia. These third-party OEMs then make their own smartphones using Microsoft's platform. Were Microsoft to develop its own hardware in addition to the software, it would break with the company's traditional business model. Microsoft did not comment on the Journal's story.
