    DSA Smartphone Technology Laboratory

    This is the Center for Smartphone Technology Discussions. Here, is where we will find an abundance of information regarding mobile device progression.

    You can expect to find:

    - Video Reviews on the latest smartphones
    - Comparisons between the latest phones
    - Rumor News
    - Unboxing's and detailed explanations of their software
    - Deals and Promotions for phones that are available across all carriers.

    That's right, we are stepping our game up to ensure that the DSA has knowledge and understanding on the newest and freshest tech on the market. From Remote play capable powerhouses to business oriented phablets, this will be your Go-To institution for finding all of your smartphone answers.

    Recently, I have just been employed by Market Source at one of the most successful mobile stores in the San Antonio Region. This location will be upgraded into a full on E&E store within the next few months. (Electronics and Entertainment (E&E) is like Best Buy on crack; With Promotional deals that surpass what the retail stores (AT&T/SPRINT/VERISON) can ever provide).

    What intrigued me the most about this position was that it was literally one mile away from home, and their new compensation plan that is sooo awesome. I will be getting compensation on pretty much everything. The traffic here is great, so I'm very excited. I will actually have the opportunity to get paid more than I was as an Automotive Research Chemist.

    It is my actual profession, to research and understand the ins and outs of the newest mobile devices for both now, and in the times to come. Although I do have my favorites (AHEM Xperia Series) I will be bringing the information on ALL the BADBOYS like Apple, Samsung, HTC, Huawei, and more.

    Get ready ladies and gentlemen, it's time for phone porn.

    If you have any videos or news articles you personally would like to share, feel free to do so. It is for the edification of our DSA members here, to know what is in the market.

    Stay tuned!

    Lets start off with some of the newest phones just released over the past few weeks. Kicking things into high gear, we have the Samsung Galaxy S6 edge



    While a bit flashy, the edge delivers an extremely premium look and feel. Here are comparisons between the edge, and the initial S6




    If you feel as if you may be more interested in a regular S6; you may find this in depth unboxing and review a very good source for understanding the software and capabilities of the Galaxy S6.

      Its David Vs Golliath in this Sony Xperia Z3 vs Samsung Galaxy S6 raw smackdown comparison.

      The S6 has recently released with next generation specs. 810 snapdragon processor with an Octacore cpu. It is a beast.

      But that beast, is put up against one of the best underrated phones of 2014, the Sony Xperia Z3. Watch the fight, and see how the last year flagship manages to hold it's own against a brand new threat.



      Thats right, the Sony Xperia does tend to keep up and even surpass the S6 in some key areas. Although the S6 has raw processing power, it lacks the razor sharp discipline of the Z3.

      And great news, the Z3 has made a comeback from retirement at T-Mobile with a 130 dollar price cut. Now is a fuckin badass time to snag one of these classics.

      The handset was supposedly discontinued a while back, but now it's offered for even less than before. Earlier this month T-Mobile decided to discontinue...



      In related news, the Z4 has just been launched exclusively for Japan. Talks of a Z5 being a proper instalation for western markets coming in the 4th quarter of 2015.


      Rumored specs of the Z5/Z5 Ultra:

      -820 Snapdragon Graphics processor
      -4 GB of Ram
      -Octacore Processor
      Qualcomms 3D ultrasonic fingerprint scanner technology
      -Quad HD display in some markets
      - Micro SD card with up to 128GB expansion support.
      -Further Waterproofing technology upgrades using SuperHydrophobic Access Port Materials.
      -Battery Longevity Improvements
      -Unknown Upgrades to the Front and Rear Camera Sensors.



      So I dont blame you if you want to wait for the Z5. However the Z3 is still fantastic and one of the best overall experiences you can get with android.

        DetriotBORG Unboxes and breaks down the Z3 like no other. By the end, you basically know how do do everything with the phone. Thats how good he is at explaining stuff. Its soo badass.




        If you are too drunk to pay attention, It's all good man. I even got Drunk Tech Review guy here to speak your language on the Z3 with his drinking buddies.

          The Iphone 6 is a top seller for a reason. It is very accessible for people of all ages. It's simplicity is what makes it very attractive to consumers. Safety and security are embedded in it's IOS software. People get hooked to this phone. Lets take a look at both the 6 and the 6Plus... With a microscopic level of detail.




          If you are interested in more, here is a breakdown of the unboxing experience.


          Fear not Drunkards!! Drunk review Tech Guy has got you covered as well. So throw down a cold one and check out the 6 by a drunk point of view if need be.

            Possible leaked image of the Sony Xperia Z5.

            This may just be a concept model but you can see that they are planning to use a side placed fingerprint scanner.



            All open ports will be waterproof, just as in past models (headphone jack).

            I cannot wait to get more information about this.

                Sounds awesome bro. One of my samsung reps was telling me all about the S6. He mentioned that instead of claiming that it was water resistant (like the S5), they just made it like that without promoting that it was resistant.

                They knew that the phone may not have been waterproof, so Samsung wanted to prevent any confusion.

                Have you heard anything about this?

                  We can really make an awesome thread here. I'm pretty excited about being able to organize all of my research into one place. This is about seeing the market from alot of different possible angles.

                  Enter, the HTC One M9



                  There are quite a few attractive aspects to this phone. One that allows someone to stand out from the crowd with a respectable flagship device.


                  Sound interesting? Well I recommend again, DetroitBorg to explain all the neat details. Here he unboxes the M9, enjoy!

                    Galaxy Note 4 Series comparison.

                    Grimm Fury has this phone, he says it's a beast.



                    Branching off from the two, you can choose to learn more about each smartphone.

                      I believe this was a good course of action for Samsung. The design of the charging port on the Galaxy S 5 used a door, and if it was removed as it loses that ability. With the design oh the S6 it makes it easier to seal and it just makes sense. This is Samsung seems to me as it's answer to those who requested a more premium look over the past polycarbonite material.

                      Take a look at this S6 Edge water test. it's pretty good.
