Welcome to another episode of the Coolsmartphone Podcast, joining me this week were Craig, Garry and Ian. Craig is this weeks special guest, he used to part of the team here at Coolsmartphone and I recently met him at March of the Droids in Bournemouth. This weeks topics …
A few weeks ago LG sort of announced the three new sizes in their G-Pad range. A smaller 7″ model alongside the expected 8″ model and a larger 10″ model. The strange thing was that they didn’t give us any specs or much detail at all. Having had …
OK, OK. Here’s the token World Cup news post. We have been bombarded with emails from PR agencies who are trying desperately to make their accessory, phone or app have something to do with football. This, though, is the official app from FIFA. FIFA have been accused of …
Here at Coolsmartphone we’ve already had a look at the cheaper smartphones and we’re always quick to let you guys know if there’s a good deal online. However, let’s be honest, for the most part phones are an expensive habit. The old way of getting a handset used …
No, you’re not going to get one completely free. It’s not like some crazy person is standing on a street corner dishing these out. You’ve got to buy something else first, but it’s a rather good deal still, so that’s ok. Buy yourself a Samsung Galaxy S5 online …
Another day and another leak for the LG G Watch… One of LG’s worst kept secrets now. @UpLeaks have got hold of the specifications for the LG G Watch which is expected now to be available on the 7th July possibly making an appearance at Google IO this month. …
It’s dawned on me that I’ve got three handsets here which are pretty interesting. I’m also aware that I’ve not published one of our “Week with” features for some time, so this could be an ideal combination. In my possession I’ve got the HTC Desire 816, which has …
One of the main factors that frequently draws me back to Android after using Windows Phone is the endless customisation available. Nowhere is this more apparent than in the launcher. With fond memories of using SPB Shell, a 3D launcher on the old Windows Mobile phones, I had high …
This evening I am having a meeting. This meeting will be taking place in a bar. Some drinks will be drunk and words will be exchanged. It sounds quite dull and mundane. However, the meeting is with a very interesting chap by the name of James Hepburn. Chances …
Headphones are ten a penny. Getting the right ones is a tricky task and sometimes you’ll either need a software equalizer or that rather clever Beats technology to make the sound better. These headphones, Meze, are made from handcrafted beech wood. This, according to the makers, produces a …
In case you had somehow failed to notice, the World Cup kicks off in Brazil later tonight, with the start of 64 games over a month in 12 different cities across the country. World Cup Scheduler is an app that keeps you up to date with who is …
Google Now is slowly getting cleverer and cleverer as the days go by as Google learns more about our life. It wasn’t that long ago when the only uses were a few voice commands and even then you were really lucky if you got what you wanted. Since …
There are some hotly anticipated phones that just don’t ever seem to come out on time when they really really needed to. I’m thinking of the Palm Pre 3 as one of those cases and the original HTC One as another. Now the OnePlus One seems destined to …
Remember those mini satellites we told you about? They’re about the size of a shoebox and whizz around space with fairly standard (compared to other satellites) technology inside. The company responsible for them is called SkyBox and Google were sniffing around them last time we covered the tech. …
In February we managed to get a brief hands on the Desire 816. Sadly we didn’t get long with it and, at the time, nobody was allowed to turn it on. This week we’ve got some proper hands-on time with the handset. I’ve already fiddled with it for …
You may remember us talking about a smartphone projector some months ago. For really not-that-much-money you it’ll project the image from your smartphone screen onto your wall. Just before I went on my little bike ride the buys from Luckies of London delivered us a review unit, so …
You can imagine the scenario: you’re stuck on the station platform, you’re underground and cannot get a signal and you’re unlucky enough not to use a network for which free wifi is provided, yet you’re desperate to keep up to date with the Russia vs. South Korea score. …
The Nexus 5 was reviewed favourably when it was released back in November. Offering a stock Android experience, now updated to 4.4.3 KitKat, it includes a decent screen and powerful processor. The price has changed over time, but Carphone Warehouse are now selling it for a bargain basement …
