Free Beats Headphones from Xpango

2011-11-07T23:27:00.000Z

Get Beats Headphones for Free with Xpango!

We have had a busy few days adding new gifts on Xpango; most of the excitement has come from the new Beats headphones that we have added. We have 4 different models (2 over ear and 2 in ear) ranging from 10 - 28 credits. The Beats headphones from Monster have been designed with the help of Dr Dre and have been developed to produce the same sound and quality that the artists produce in the studio.

Here's a quick run through the models:

Beats Studio

The Beats Studio Headphones are the new high definition performance headphones.

Artists and producers spend countless hours fine-tuning and mixing music to get it exactly how they want their fans to hear it. But the vast majority of headphones can’t accurately reproduce the intricacies produced in the studio. Simply put, Studios can.

With precision-engineered, advanced speaker design, powered amplification, and powered noise cancellation, you hear music the way today’s top artists and producers want you to hear.

Beats Solo

The Beats Solo are the new high performance headphones.
The music you listen to in your headphones should capture all the sonic details the artist wanted you to hear. Normal headphones can’t deliver the rich, full sound in today’s digital audio tracks, especially not smaller, lightweight headphones.

Solos high performance headphones, are designed for today’s active lifestyles, deliver sound so real, you’ll be amazed it’s all coming from something so compact and portable.

Beats Tour

The Beats Tour are the new high performance in ear headphones.
With Tour ControlTalk, you get the same amazing listening experience of the original Beats by Dr. Dre Tour, with the added convenience of a built-in Monster ControlTalk.

ControlTalk gives you on-cable control of your music, as well as easy, high quality hands-free calling. You’ll enjoy quick-access music playback control, like volume, play/pause and tracking, without having to dig for your iPod. Plus, the high-grade mic and sound-isolating headphones all combine to let you hear and be heard much more clearly than you ever could with your phone to your ear.

Beats iBeats

The iBeats Headphones have the signature Beats sound with an iconic, sleek, compact design.

Small Size, Big Sound: High Performance In-Ear Headphones for iPad, iPhone, iPod. If replacing busted buds over and over again is getting old, when you step up to iBeats, you not only get stylish in-ear headphones built to last. You also hear what you've been missing.

Engineered to deliver extraordinary HD audio from your iPad, iPhone, or iPod, it's amazing how such a big sound comes out of so compact a package. Once you go iBeats, you never go back.

If you need more information then please visit the gift section to view all the Beats models in more detail.

Free Apple iPhone 4S added to Xpango

2011-10-12T09:33:00.001+01:00

Last week saw the launch of Apple's much anticipated iPhone 4S (Not the iPhone 5 the world expected!). Unfortunately last week also saw the very sad passing of Steve Jobs. Our sincere condolences go out to his family and everyone at Apple.

The iPhone 4S is Apples latest offering which is a more powerful, responsive and efficient iPhone.

So what's the iPhone 4S got that the iPhone 4 hasn't?

At Xpango we reviewed the new model and made a short summary:

The new A5 processor - Apple's new A5 chip delivers twice as much power and up to seven times faster graphics than the earlier iPhone 4. This makes the iPhone 4S quicker and responsive, which makes all the difference when you’re launching apps, browsing the web, gaming and doing just about everything.

An 8 Mega-Pixel Camera - The iPhone 4S has a new 8-megapixel resolution and a custom lens with a larger f/2.4 aperture. (60% more pixels than the iPhone 4) The iPhone 4S also boasts improvements to backside illumination, auto white balance, advanced colour accuracy, face detection and reduced motion blur sensors.

Shoot stunning 1080p HD video - With the iPhone 4S’ new optics, the light is always right, the colour is always vivid and everything will look better than you remember. Video stabilisation steadies shaky shots; and you can edit and share video’s as fast as you shoot!

Siri -Apple have introduced their latest addition to the iPhone 4S – Siri

Siri on iPhone 4S lets you use your voice to send messages, schedule meetings, make phone calls and more. Ask Siri to do things just by talking the way you talk. Siri understands what you say, knows what you mean and even talks back. It searches the web for anything and everything you need to know. It plays the songs you want to hear. It makes calls. It schedules meetings. It helps you remember. And it wakes you up. Siri tells you almost everything. And it even speaks for itself!

In Summary...

So what do we think? The iPhone 4S is has received some big upgrades so it should be faster and allow for quicker multi-tasking with the addition of the new A5 chip.

The new 8 mega pixel camera and 1080p recording will match the quality of the Samsung Galaxy 2 so it should be popular with anybody who uses their phone as their main camera or can't afford to carry both.

The original upgrades from the iPhone 4 are also still there such as the Facetime, Airtplay and Airprint so the iPhone 4S really is a more refined model.

The most talked about feature on the iPhone 4S is Siri. Some people are saying that the "S" stands for Siri!

Siri will be a great addition to people that need organisation. The system can book meetings, remind you to call someone when you walk out of the office and research for you while you're on the move!

Will the iPhone 4S be available on Xpango?

Of course! You can sign up to Xpango today and register for your Free iPhone 4S or existing members can login and select an iPhone 4S as their chosen gift. We have also reduced the number of credits needed for the iPhone 4 & iPhone 3GS.

The Latest Consoles - For Less Credits

2011-08-18T10:37:00.002+01:00

Console wars between the major manufacturers often focus around price and this time of year it is no different! We have seen price reductions for the Nintendo 3DS, the Sony PS3 and Nintendo Wii. The pricing of the Sony PS3 has now been brought more in-line with the Xbox 360.

At Xpango we always try to ensure that the credits required for a gift are matched as closely to the price as possible, so if prices come down - so do our credit requirements.

In light of the price decreases, we have reduced the number of credits needed for the following consoles;

Nintendo 3DS - 14 Credits (was 20)
Nintendo Wii - 12 Credits (was 18)
Sony PS3 160GB - 21 Credits (was 25)

It's worth noting that an Xbox 360 4GB is also available for just 15 Credits.

It's only August but now is a great time to start earning credits towards a gift for Christmas! Perhaps treat a loved one by getting a gift from Xpango, or hey - why not treat yourself?

And finally...

We have some great new offers this week for our members who live in the US! Including;

Free Blackberry Playbook & Amazon Kindle

2010-11-25T13:32:00.005Z

With the launch of the New Xpango website last month, you may well have noticed a new gift range we now feature - Macs & PCs! We've been bombarded with requests for iPads and netbooks and hence this section was born.

Christmas is coming and there's no doubt that many people will have netbooks or tablets on their christmas list and we've been busy delivering many of these items to members already.

With this in mind, we have 2 new gift additions for you, 1 for the present and one for the near future. These are the hugely popular Amazon Kindle and the forthcoming Blackberry Playbook Tablet.

Want to know more about these gifts? Read on...

Free Amazon Kindle

Amazon claim this is their best selling and most wished for item for the last 2 years, so its fair to say the Kindle is pretty popular and you can see why. The Kindle is a remarkable device. If you love to read then the Kindle offers a truly unique way of doing so via the eInk system is uses. Text looks extremely crisp and just like printed ink, rather than screen text. The result gives you a beautiful screen, but a screen that is not effected by glare. You can read books on your Kindle, in normal sunlight.

The Kindle is a small and very light device, not at all heavy to hold and is capable of storing over 3,500 books. It's easy to add new books or buy new books via the Wi-Fi that the device has.

Another great feature is the battery life, 1 full charge can last up to a month, which is the sort of battery power tablets and netbooks can only dream about at present!

The Amazon Kindle is now available for just 12 credits and is perfect Christmas present for book lovers.

Free Blackberry Playbook

We all know about the Apple iPad, a great device and is currently one of the most popular items members sign-up for on Xpango...but Blackberry may well be about to change that...

The Blackberry Playbook is RIMs first venture into the Tablet market and this looks to be a brillant device.

The Playbook features a 7" LCD touch-screen, dual HD cameras (front and back), 1GB of RAM, HD Video, Wi-FI and much more.

This looks to be a fantastic device, with plenty of power and features, plus the ability to link it with a Blackberry Smartphone to use features such as BBM and more.

The Playbook is considerably smaller than an iPad and a little lighter too (plus cheaper) so we fully expect this to be a very popular item on it's release early next year. Xpango members can now select this gift and begin earning credits towards it, in time for its release early next year.

New iPod Touch and iPod Nano now available from Xpango

2010-09-16T22:51:00.005+01:00

Apple have recently updated their range of iPods, including a new Apple iPod Touch, iPod Nano, and iPod Shuffle so Xpango have followed suit and updated the range of iPods you can receive for Free!

So what's new? Xpango have added the new Apple iPod Nano and iPod Touch, read on to find out all about these new models;

Free Apple iPod Touch 4th Gen from Xpango

The new iPod Touch now features FaceTime Video calling (as found on the iPhone 4), Retina High Resolution Display HD Recording and Game Centre.

You will notice the iPod Touch 4th Gen now looks a lot more like an iPhone 4 from the front and now includes many of the new features found on the iPhone 4, such as FaceTime and the High Res Retina display. The addition of the Game Centre App is interesting and allows you to buy and play games on your iPhone Touch via Wi-Fi.

The iPod Touch is available in 8GB, 32GB and 64GB models.

Xpango have added the 8GB version and 32Gb version which are available for 19 and 25 credits respectively.

To read more about the new iPod Touch 4th Gen - click here

Free Apple iPod Nano from Xpango

The iPod Nano has always been on of Apple's most popular iPods, mostly due to size and cost and the new iPod Nano is certainly going to be popular with it's new 'Multi-touch' screen.

Gone are the buttons of previous models, these have been replaced with a small touch screen which we must add is very impressive for a device of this size!

Some say that Apple appear to have taken the previous model and chopped it in half, with the top half being the Nano and the bottom being the shuffle and we can see what they are getting at. The new Nano is tiny.

The Touch screen allows you to tap, flick and swipe your way through songs, artists, Genius playlists, radio stations and more. Plus you can listen to FM Radio, which also includes a Live Pause feature, which is a very nice addition.

The iPod Nano is one of the most popular gifts from Xpango and this new model is certain to be popular with members. We feature the 8GB and 16GB versions which are currently available for 13 and 16 credits respectively.

Free Xbox 360 Kinect from Xpango - Coming Soon!

2010-08-23T17:50:00.005+01:00

Kinect for Xbox 360 - you are the controller...

Nintendo started it all with the hugely popular Wii - physical movement of a controller to control gameplay.

Well, Microsoft (and soon Sony) are due to take that to a whole new level with the Kinect Sensor - movement to control a game, without a physical controller.

The Kinect system was previewed a few months back at the E3 Conference and looks like it will be bringing full motion gameplay to life within the Xbox 360.

What do Microsoft say about Kinect?

"Kinect brings games and entertainment to life in extraordinary new ways - no controller required. Easy to use and instantly fun, Kinect gets everyone off the couch moving, laughing and cheering. See a ball? Kick it. Control an HD movie with a wave of the hand. Want to join a friend in the fun? Simply jump in.

With Kinect technology evaporates, letting the natural magic in all of us shine. And the best part is Kinect works with every Xbox 360."

Gameplay without a controller?

That's right - The Kinect Sensor picks up to 48 parts of your body and detects movement from these.

The Kinect Sensor is due for release in November and will be available with the Kinect Adventures pack or as a bundle with an Xbox 360.

The Kinect could well change the way games are played and will certainly open new doors whilst attracting those that perhaps don't often play video games. Fitness games, dance games etc will be very well suited for the Kinect and early game releases appear to focus on these. But don't let that put you off as the Kinect is due to cater for regular gamers too, Star Wars Kinect looks to be an intriguing addition! We look forward to seeing how that works.

Whilst the Kinect is not out until November, you can now begin earning credits towards the Kinect to receive it for free from Xpango.

Oh and Playstation and Wii fans - don't worry! We will be covering the Wii Motion + and Playstation Move very shortly ;)

New Xbox 360 Slim Available from Xpango!

2010-07-28T14:48:00.004+01:00

Exciting times for gamers! Microsoft have recently released a new version of the Xbox 360 - The Xbox 360 Slim!

So what's new?

Well the clue is partly in the title - The new Xbox 360 is significantly slimmer than it's predecessor, but that's not all - its smaller and much quieter too. Any Xbox fan will tell you that the previous model could be a little noisy at times, but Microsoft claim the new version is 'whisper quiet'.

The Xbox 360 slim also comes with a built in 250GB hard drive, 250GB providing more than enough room for games, movies, music and much more. Wi-fi is also now available as a built in feature, a much needed improvement.

250GB or 4GB?

Shortly after releasing the 250GB version, Microsoft announced the addition of a 4GB version. This is essentially the same console but with a smaller hard drive (and cost) and if you don't download much onto your Xbox, the 4GB version is a great option.

Both of these are now available from Xpango.

Kinect...?

Heard about Kinect? The new Kinect sensor for Xbox 360 brings games and entertainment to life in extraordinary new ways – no controller required. This will shortly be available from Xpango too (watch this space) and we will blog about this is coming weeks. It's worth noting that both of the new Xbox 360 consoles are 'ready for Kinect' and compatible with this new technology.

Get your new Xbox 360 Slim 250GB or 4GB from Xpango!

The Xbox 360 Slim 250GB is currently available for 20 Credits, whilst the Xbox 360 Slim 4GB model will shortly be available for 15 Credits - sign up for yours today!

iPhone 4 - The best iPhone yet?

2010-06-10T12:27:00.004+01:00

A few days ago Apple unveiled the latest version of the iPhone to the world - the iPhone 4.

As some of you may have already seen, a prototype was leaked around a month back, so you may have already got a glimpse of this phone, but we now get to take a proper look at a very exciting handset from Apple.

So what's new?

Quite a bit actually, here's a summary of new features;

New Design - 24% slimmer with a flat glass front and back and a stainless steel band around the outside of the phone. Apple claim the new iPhone 4 will be the slimmest handset available on the smart phone market. It will also be available in the usual black and white colours.
High Res 'Retina' Display -Apple claim this to be the sharpest, most high resolution phone screen ever. Quite a statement, but Apple have achieved this by fitting in 4x the amount of pixels into the screen (im comparision to the iPhone 3GS) to give a far higher resolution screen.
HD Video Recording & New Camera - Apple have finally improved the camera found on the iPhone, this is now a 5.0 MegaPixel with LED Flash. In addition to this, the iPhone features HD recording (in 720p) which allows you to record and edit movies on your iPhone 4 using iMovie.
Facetime (Video Calling) - The iPhone 4 includes front and rear cameras to allow you to record video and in this case, use Video Calling (Apple have named this 'Facetime'). The clever feature here is that you can use the rear camera to show a person what you are looking at without having to flip your phone around.

In Summary...

So what do we think? Well the iPhone 4 is certainly a big improvement from previous version and it should be faster and allow for multi-tasking with the addition of the A4 chip, which is also used in the iPad.

We particularly like the design changes with the more subtle cornering on the phone. The addition of a better camera and video recording is likely to prove very popular with users too.

Apple have raised the bar once again and whilst there are many fantastic smart phones now available on the market, there is no doubt that the iPhone 4 will be one of the most desirable on its release, which is due on June the 24th in some countries and being available across the globe before September.

Will the iPhone 4 be available on Xpango?

Of course! We will add this handset in the new couple of weeks once we have a better idea of pricing from Apple, keep an eye on our Blog/Facebook/Twitter for updates!

New Phones - Free Nokia N97 Mini, Motorola Milestone & more...

2010-03-17T16:14:00.005Z

Looking for the latest mobile phones? Well, you will be pleased to hear that we have been busy this week updating our range of free mobile phones you can receive from Xpango!

We've added some great new handsets and have also updated credit requirements for a number of others too. In all, we've added 7 new handsets so far this week. Here's a small summary of 3 of our favourites;

Free Nokia N97 Mini

Hot on the heels of the popular N97, Nokia recently released the N97 Mini. The N97 Mini is smaller and lighter than the previous N97, around 12% lighter apparently. It seems that Nokia have been keen to reduce the size and weight of the handset and make it a bit more appealing to those who like to make more of a fashion statement with their mobile phone, as the N97 Mini is also available in 3 colours.

Despite being a little smaller, the N97 Mini is still packed with features, including an 8GB internal memory with SD Card for more if needed, a slide out full Qwerty keyboard, 3.2" screen and a 5MP Digital Camera.

Click her e to read more about the Nokia N97 Mini, or select this gift from Xpango.

Free Motorola Milestone

It's fair to say that over the past couple of years, we haven't seen to much to get excited about from Motorola! Back in the day Motorola were making waves in the mobile market with striking handsets as the Motorola RAZR or functional ones such as their P series smartphones!

It would seem that they've taken some time to develop something new and low and behold, they have now released the Motorola Milestone. The time out seems to have helped as this handset is receiving rave reviews and you can see why. It's the first smartphone to be using Google's Android 2.0 operating system, plus is has a 3.7" touch screen and slide out full Qwerty keyboard. The phone is also said to be lightning quick to use and great for running multiple apps (take note Apple!)

A good return to form from Motorola.

Free Sony Ericsson Vivaz

Sony Ericsson have recently announced a whole new wave of modern handsets, but we were particularly interested in the Vivaz. Why? Well this is the first handset from Sony Ericsson that offers HD Video recording (720p) which is a fantastic and very impressive feature.

The Vivaz also includes a striking design with a lovely 3.2" touch screen and an impressive 8.1MP Digital Cybershot Camera.

Free BlackBerry 9700 Bold & 8520 Curve added!

2009-12-04T18:22:00.004Z

Xpango have now added 2 new Blackberry models, both of which will sure to be popular with our members. The New BlackBerry 9700 Bold & 8520 Curve include a full range of great features - which handset is right for you? Read on...

BlackBerry 8520 Curve

The 8520 Curve is a lightweight handset featuring BlackBerry's new trackpad navigation system and a range of dedicated media buttons - both these features are designed to make it quick and easy to do what you need to do on your BlackBerry!

Essentially the 8520 Curve is very similar to the 8900 Curve but with a few differences. The biggest difference in this case is the price, with the 8520 costing less than the 8900 meaning that if you want a BlackBerry but don't want to earn quite so many credits, the 8520 is a great option and at the time of writing is available for just 18 Credits from Xpango! (The Bold is currently 37).

The 8520 is still packed with all your usual BlackBerry features such as instant email, a 2Mp Digital Camera and Wi-Fi, but does have slightly lower resolution than the 8900 and misses GPS, so a few factors to consider, however the 8520 is a great BlackBerry handset and the differences are minimal, we also really like the trackpad navigation feature. We recommend the 8520 to any Xpango member who is looking to pick up a BlackBerry as it offers great value.

BlackBerry 9700 Bold

The New BlackBerry 9700 Bold is an updated model of the previous 9000 and is BlackBerry's best balance yet between a comfortably narrow phone and conveniently wide keyboard.

Like the 8520, the 9700 also features the new trackpad navigation, which is much like what you would find on a laptop and is very clever for navigating your way around.

The 9700 is feature packed, with 3G, Wi-Fi, High Resolution Screen and a 3.2 Mp Digital Camera and yet, this model is smaller than the previous Bold model and certainly less in width.

If your looking for a BlackBerry that has it all, the 9700 certainly seems to tick every box, however this is a more expensive model and at the time of writing is available for 37 Credits. That said, it's still less than an iPhone 3GS...

So there we have it, an overview of 2 fantastic new BlackBerry's available from Xpango. To read more about each, click here.

Free PSP Go from Xpango!

2009-10-15T17:32:00.004+01:00

Xpango have now added the new Sony PSP Go to the selection of gaming consoles members can receive for Free!

The Sony PSP Go was announced back in June earlier this year and has now been released by Sony.

It's worth noting that the PSP Go isn't seen as a replacement for the PSP 3000, but simply a smaller, lighter and slimmer version, with a 3.8 Screen and slide down keypad.

Sony have removed the UMD format capability from this version to slim down the console, with games being available for download onto the systems 16GB internal storage. The PSP Go features Wi-Fi to enable internet browsing and game downloads and also includes Bluetooth connectivity.

So what's the verdict?

There is no doubt that the PSP Go is an impressive handheld console and boasts a much improved screen clarity and is certainly very portable in size, being 43% smaller than the PSP 3000.

However - it's worth noting though that having taken away the ability to play UMD Format games on the console, if you already own a PSP its unlikely that you would want a PSP Go as you won't be able to play any games you already own on it! This would explain why Sony state this is not a replacement console. The console is also quite expensive - £220 in the UK and $250 in the US, which is quite a bit more than the PSP 3000 and for a little more you can get a slimline PS3!

In summary, an impressive console, probably the best of its kind for screen display and size, with some great games available too, but perhaps best for members who don't already own a PSP.

The Sony PSP Go Console is available for 21 Credits from Xpango, click here to read more

New Apple iPod Nano & iPod Touch available at Xpango

2009-09-17T16:24:00.006+01:00

As expected, last week Apple announced some updates to their hugely popular iPod range.

These have included new updates to the iPod Nano & iPod Touch, such as;

FM Radio, Video Recording and a Larger Screen to the iPod Nano
A larger 64GB iPod Touch, plus the addition of 3.1 Software and a reduction in price on the 8GB & 16GB models.

Probably the most interesting of these updates are found on the iPod Nano, with the addition of Video Recording and an FM Radio, the Radio feature has been long, long overdue and has taken Apple 5 generations to add this to the Nano!

You may also notice the camera (for video recording) has been added to the rear of the nano, whilst the nano also benefits from a 'polished anodised aluminium finish' which has been added to the design to give the nano a particularly nice finish.

The iPod Nano 16GB also benefits from a reduction in price, as does the 8GB and 16GB iPod Touch.

You can receive an iPod Nano 8GB for just 11 Credits and now receive a 8GB iPod Touch for just 15 Credits from Xpango.
