As Britain limps in disarray towards a badly-handled Brexit, we still have a few more months being part of the EU. It means that we can fly to France, Spain, Germany, Cyprus, Greece or Sweden and make calls, text or browse just like we were back in the …

OK you lovely Coolsmartphone reader. How does 10GB of monthly data sound? How does using the Three network sound? How about 4G data speeds? Unlimited texts, unlimited calls? Good? How about all that for just £13 a month? That’s a deal isn’t it? iD Mobile, which sits on …

Moving from 3G to 4G now seems like a distant memory. Indeed, on the very, very odd occasion that I do drop to 3G I suddenly think… My God! 3G is terrible. How did we cope with this?! But wait, forget about 3G. We’re using 4G and already …

No real fanfare here, but it looks like our friends at Three have removed the usage caps on tethering. From now, the “Personal Hotspot” usage limits on 4G mobile plans will be ditched, so no need to worry about hooking your laptop onto your phone in future. The …

I’ve absolutely no idea why you’d want this. I’m perhaps even struggling to describe the thing. It’s, umm.. it’s a robotic finger that you can attach to your phone. Once you’ve attached it then… errr… Well, the people behind this, the MobiLimb, tell me that it.. …aims (to …

Today in London HMD have announced the latest device under the Nokia brand, this time called the 7.1. I’ve already been impressed with their recent Nokia 7 Plus during my recent review, but this updated version brings better performance, enhanced cameras and a new screen technology. It’s hoped that …

No, I’ve no idea why either. Well.. actually I do. I lie. It’s to promote their 4G network, the fact that it works in more remote spots and the return of 4GEE Cinema. Yes, students from Goodwood Flying School were hoisted into the air, given popcorn (which, of …

If you need to send a parcel, there’s probably less and less of us actually going to a Post Office. Now there’s a myriad of parcel companies and couriers who can come to your door and pick up. However, there’s a problem. You need to know the dimensions …

Here in the UK you’ll find that students have already been back at school for a month. The new pencil cases and all that posh stationary is already looking worn and, although it’s not always fun, education is an all-important part of your life. With the aid of …

I mentioned a 256GB microSD card earlier and, although it offered a huge amount of storage space, it was also £64.49. So, if you want a 128GB card and only want to spend £18.99, this Kingston Select microSD will do the trick. It’s a Class 10 and comes …

Although we all use our phones to pass the time and check out the latest social media trends, we can also use them to make a bit of cash, or save it. Sure, it might seem too good to be true but there are some clever ways of doing …

As you know, I’m on the lookout for a new phone. This morning I stumbled across this Xiaomi Redmi 6 which is now just £85.96 if you whack in the code YPTDR8. You may remember us featuring this one a few weeks back. It was already cheap back …

As you’ll know, I’m pretty terrible at backing stuff up. I recently broke my Huawei phone and I still haven’t managed to get the thing fixed. All the photos were on there and I’m using an old Samsung with a cracked screen at the moment. Doah. So, if …

Recently Wileyfox announced some new handsets with one year’s free screen replacement insurance. Now they’re rolling it out to all of their handsets. It’s something that Kazam did back in the day and now Wileyfox are doing it too. As of now, anyone who purchases a Wileyfox smartphone …

Yes, it’s getting dark early, it’s getting cold and people keep talking about Christmas. Tesco Mobile are doing a bit of a deal to keep you warm though, and – if you buy a Galaxy S8, S8+, S9, S9+ or Note 9 with them – you can grab …

I’ve literally just unpacked this one. It’s a slim, pebble-like wireless charger which will top up your smartphone quickly. It’s $14.99 from Amazon US and now just £11.79 from Amazon UK, if you’ve got a compatible handset, it’ll charge supported devices up to 1.5 times faster than a …

VR is definitely gaining momentum, not to the One Billion active users that Mark Zuckerberg is famously aiming for the usage is on the rise. Now more than ever, there are more ways to get into VR with the likes of PSVR, Rift, Vive and Gear VR finding it’s …

Virgin Mobile are doing some great offers right now, especially if you are in need of a SIM-only contract. The company run their network off EE signal, which gives them access to a huge 4G footprint already built, and still improving all the time. Until now customers have …

Here is something a little bit different for us to review, especially on a site originally dedicated to smartphones. It is a review of a laptop. Not just any laptop though, this is a laptop that hides behind a diminutive form factor (at least for its size). That …

Roaming plays a big part of your decision-making when choosing a network. Being connected is more vital now than it has ever been. Many customers on Three have been asking when they will get access to 4G roaming that other networks have offered for a while now. Whilst …
