PhoneArena Awards 2012: All posts in one place

0. phoneArena posted on 21 Dec 2012, 03:01

We can't deny that 2012 was a year full of excitement. And what is it that gets a geek excited? Gadgets, of course! We got to play with a whole bunch of smartphones and tablets, some of which we weren't that impressed by, while others we simply fell in love with. And now that 2012 is coming to an end, we decided that doing a thorough wrap-up would be a great idea. Over the past couple of weeks, we took a look back at the products and events that shaped up the mobile industry and highlighted the devices that had the most impact...

Thank you so much Phone Arena.. In spite of your sometimes bias to Apple, I really do like your website and enjoyed your articles with really wonderful readers and friends here..
God bless you and keep it up.

Yeah, PA is awersome. I like the simple and cool layout, quick and frequent news updates, and good writers/editors.

Yeah, some of the editors, I can claim are biased a little. But hey C'mon, the bias is so less compared to other sites. We can get over it. And by the way I would say PA is very very infected by the fanboys. Maybe I am also one, but mostly I try to think even. Everyone should do the same.

And finally Humour. We love your salty, sometimes caustic sense of Humour!

what i love here on PA compared to other "tech-based" websites is that, PA is a place where people really interact with each other. On other sites, commentators don't bash and complement the way we do.

Cheers! Happy Holidays everyone! :D

What I love here is the biased apple loving reviews, but all they talk about is android and without android this site wouldn't have anything to write about

I can't believe the Motorola Razr Maxx didn;t make the list. As a phone it neats any that are out there for reception and clarity. It's 4G, has a large clear screen and let's not forget the 3300 battery I need aphone top be there when i need it and this one lasts at least 2 days.
