Yes, that headline confused me too, but back in the day when we only had a few dozen TV channels instead of a few thousand, we located things without GPS. Back then, when people lost their keys, they could buy a little gadget, which I’ll call a “doo-hickey”, …

We took a look at the Ready Action harness last month. My demo, unfortunately, was a little unexciting and resembled something from a cooking show that was perhaps trying to be a little creative. Anyhow, this harness – which straps to your chest and gives a stable and …

Welcome to the Coolsmartphone Podcast. This week is our 100th episode and to celebrate we decided to get as many people on as possible and try and break the Internet. Joining me this week were Garry, Leigh, Mark, Nirave and Ravi. Topics this week revolved around our thoughts …

The 4G version of the Nokia Lumia 630 is this, the Lumia 635. If it tickles your fancy you can head down to a Phones 4u store or get online to bag one today. It’s completely free from just £18.99 per month on a 4G contract or, if …

Sony release a new flagship device every six months, not only does this annoy customers who bought the previous model but it also keeps Sony current in the face of the marketing juggernaut that is Samsung. As it’s been a few months since the Xperia Z2 was released …

Just a few days ago we published our look at Pressy. It is, if you’ve not spotted our updates, a button which sits in your 3.5mm audio jack and lets you quickly access apps or functions on your phone. Now, how about getting one that’s almost the same …

Remember our review of the Luckies Smartphone Projector ? It’s a rather clever cardboard construction which will send the image from your smartphone screen over to a wall or another flat surface. On the whole it worked jolly well and you can see our review here. However, the …

The LG G3 is the talk about town at the moment, people can finally start to buy it and make up their own minds whether it’s the phone of the year. I’ve currently got mine and the review will be coming very soon, but it seems like some …

If you were lucky enough to order your LG G Watch from MobileFun rather than Google Play directly then you could be receiving a little present through the post in the next day or so a little ahead of schedule. It was set to be released on July …

Wearables are very much the “in thing” at present. It is pretty much a free-for-all as to what they do and what their purpose should be. This is pretty interesting state of affairs because, due to the fact that everyone is having a shot at wearables, it means …

This is a special one for me, because – apart from using Windows Phone in a few example videos over the years, I’ve been a really big Android and iPhone user. Put it this way, Windows Phone has a big hill to climb with me. It’s going to …

The people from WinZip contacted me. I figured I’d listen because I’ve pretty much used their software for absolutely ages, so I owe them. Anyhoo, they’ve now announced a new iOS app which costs a mere £1.49 (provided you buy it either today or tomorrow). There’s now support …

As expected, a smaller version of the Samsung Galaxy S5 has been announced today. It features a 4.5″ HD (720×1280) pixel Super AMOLED screen and a quad core 1.4GHz CPU with Android KitKat, so it’s no slouch. Around back there’s an 8 megapixel camera with autofocus and a …

OK, here is the short version. I’ve not really gone near Windows Phone for a while now. Years in fact. Some of you have taken exception to my first thoughts of the OS whist looking at the new Lumia 630 yesterday. However, I want to tell you a …

Samsung have announced 4 new members of the Galaxy range of smartphones. They’re all aimed at the mid to low end of the market. The models are the Galaxy Core II, Galaxy Star 2, Galaxy Ace 4 and the Galaxy Young 2 (we’re not sure why the Core uses …
