Bangalore: Samsung's newest Galaxy S4 smartphone is just a revamped version of its top-selling S3 phone with a bigger screen and a few software gimmicks, reviewers said.

If this were Apple, who adds the letter S to denote a slightly upgraded model ("iPhone 4S," for example), Samsung...

New York: The BlackBerry has finally caught up to the world of touch-screen smartphones. It took time - six years, from the launch of the first iPhone - and it may be too late to save the company that makes it. But the BlackBerry deserves to be taken seriously again. Why? Because the new BlackBerry Q10 from Blackberry is a successful marriage of the modern touch-screen smartphone and the iconic...

New York: I've seen Android phones get better and more powerful over the years, as Google and phone manufacturers pack devices with more and more features. There comes a time, though, when less is more. I'm afraid we've reached that time. Samsung's new Galaxy S4 smartphone is an excellent device from a hardware standpoint. Measuring 5 inches diagonally, the screen is slightly larger than that on its predecessor, the Galaxy...

The e2o is an electric car developed by the Mahindra Reva Electric Car Company. It's the successor to the Reva India's first electric car.

Mumbai: In a strange sort of way they're are strong reminders of the 200 but this is a very different motorcycle. The riding position is exactly the same and the 10mm lower seat makes no difference. At low revs, there are clearly more vibes and all the test ride bikes had vibration dampers at the bar-ends. But it smoothes out after 3500rpm or so and from then on, is always...

Los Angeles: Until now, my problem with social music services has been this: Following friends doesn't really turn up much music I actually want to hear. We didn't become friends because we share musical tastes, and too few of them are using the services I'm trying out. Twitter's new music service solves this problem. It helps that it's free. With it, I'm able to sneak a peek into the musical...

Cast: Charlie Sheen, Regina Hall, Lindsay Lohan, Simon Rex, Ashley Tisdale, Snoop Dogg Director: Malcolm D. Lee Rating: 1 out of 5 If you are weak-hearted, then this film is for you!

Cast: Adil Hussain, Amey Wagh, Bhanu Prakash, Veena Sajnani, Uttara Baokar, Roshni Achreja Director: Unni Vijayan Rating: 3 out of 5 "Never run away from things that terrify you," was a lesson that JA Krishnamurthy had instilled in his daughter Smriti when she was young, and he probably regrets doing so, for the results could be terrifying. A reality one should wake up to. Released under the PVR Director's Rare...

Cast: Saoirse Ronan, Max Irons, Jake Abel Director: Andrew Niccol When an alien enters the body of a nice teenage girl, her original spirit refuses to leave, her head now crowded with two voices that want different things, including two boys who aren't particularly fond of each other. Stephenie Meyer, author of the Twilight books, recycles the same love triangle formula, only replacing vampires and werewolves with a sci-fi spin....

Cast: Emraan Hashmi, Konkona Sen Sharma, Huma Qureshi, Kalki Koechlin Director: Kannan Iyer A very different beast from 'Makdee', his charming directorial debut from eleven years ago, 'Ek Thi Daayan', co-written and co-produced by Vishal Bhardwaj, sees the filmmaker revisit the mythology of witches once again. But where 'Makdee' was an old-fashioned fable about a village witch who supposedly turned humans into animals, 'Daayan', set in the modern, urban world,...
