TechPowerUp Application Now on Android Market
Can't stay a moment off TechPowerUp? Have school/college already figured out, and find the class boring? Find your daily commute over public transport worth something more than social networking and repetitive gaming? Do zombies run the IT at your work, that blacklist sites you love? We know how you feel, so do we. So we figured out we could put TPU on your Android smartphone, with more features, and to run without a bloated mobile web-browser. Presenting the very first TechPowerUp Android application! We started this project a few weeks ago, after gauging your interest in a recent front-page poll.
The TechPowerUp application is now on the Android Market. It is heavily optimized for small-screens, including screen scaling, and performance. It gives you access to our News, Reviews, and Forums; complete with all our content. Don't just read our stuff, comment on them. Now you're never too far away from your TPU.DOWNLOAD: TechPowerUp Application for Android smartphones (free)

I can't afford a new hypermega-cool android phone : (
I've got this one for less that 140€, brand new.

The free games, free pocket references to [whatever you study], superb selection of applications of any type, it will pay itself, and I'm actually surprised. Don't want to encourage anyone to buy something they won't need, but I found it very useful and I just didn't want an android phone. no way. I'm still on symbian phone.
Just keep in mind that if for some reason you decide to go for an android tablet you have to take some things into consideration (like cpu, amount of ram, screen type, etc)
but then again, a rss widget with tpu's rss feed is also pretty sweet, which i got already
Also maybe call it Techpowerapp?
Yap just downloaded the app on my Samsung Galaxy S2, love it :)
Keep on improving it :)
PS: the first review i read using the app is the review on AMD Radeon 7850 & 7870 :))
Edit: Accidentally sent the post while trying to edit a mistake. Still a great app... EVO 3D
I love having the most recent reviews at the top, and each news item has a large picture and a link straight to discussing it in the forums. its the familiarity I'm looking for on the tablet. this is porbably most relevant to the news section alone.
thankyou so much for taking this onboard, and I'll just add that the web version does fit the screen and resolution well, but its the lack of optimisation that gets me, when I scroll through items the screen tears and the writing is maybe just a tad too small...
thanks again W1z!
I actually found it flawless, with a lot of room for extra functionality.
Of course the widget with notifications would be a plus. what about notifying about upcoming news also.
Thanks! I really like the reviews, move from left to right to change page. Great APP!!!
interface with the techpowerup.org
give you link or ability to just embed in the post
would be awesome
but idk if this is a insanely hard wish.
oh and can i say i love the android app more each day great improvements wizz;)peeps be noticeing..
and i just realised i too have tpu power 24/7 now wow ,next time my rig aint bootin i wont have to endlessly tare my hair out, bonus:D
