I’ve given the S850 a separate article as it’s totally different to the S660 and S860 we looked at earlier. In Barcelona we met up with Lenovo and, out of the three new S-range devices they’d announced, this S850 impressed me the most. It’s perhaps the most desirable …

Yes, we know, we only looked at this last week and we even had someone on the stand squashing the thing but it’s arrived here at Coolsmartphone HQ so I figured it was time for just a few more photos. Coming to EE here in the UK it …

Kazam have appeared in the last few months,  offering some cheap devices with dual SIM slots and a few extra quirks. The company was formed by two ex HTC UK staff so they know a thing or two about phones. The Trooper 4.0 is their entry level model …

We were lucky enough to have a chat with the Lenovo boys in Barcelona last week, and had chance to play with all of their new devices. The S860 forms part of their “hero” range and comes with a quad-core 1.3GHz CPU and Android 4.2 (Jelly Bean). However, …

I’ve fancied a change for a while now, something totally different, a change of OS, a change of apps, processes, gestures, hardware and even size. I don’t know what’s happened to me, my normal daily setup of a Nokia Lumia 1020 and a Nexus 5 just isn’t doing …

Well, this video may be a little disjointed but, being as is a unreleased phone being filmed almost a month before release, what can you expect. At least it’s in focus. As for who filmed it, we’re honestly not sure. Someone who likes to show off their quilt …

  If the listing on MobileFun is to believed, you’ll be able to pick up the All New HTC One for a mere £579.99 unlocked. It’ll be available “in two months” and the specs shows that it’ll come equipped with a 2.3GHz quad-core Qualcomm Snapdragon 800 CPU, two …

Well, we all knew that it was bound to happen, but just days after the announcement? That’s pretty amazing. The new Nokia X has already been rooted and the Google Apps installed, this despite having a locked bootloader. THe X has been cracked by members of the XDA …

It seems that, once again, I’ve found myself a device that splits opinion. So, the Lenovo Yoga Tablet 8 is lopsided, has a built in stand and is made by a manufacturer not known for its tablets. Let’s just say that it’s got some persuading to do! Good …

So, we brought you the news today Three have 1.7 million 4G customers. However, we have even better news… The MASSIVE list of cities or towns now due to get 4G this year has appeared online on the official Three site. It seems that the Three deployment has …

A strange thing occurred to me recently. My local high street seems to have less and less shops open. The stores that were there are now behind shutters and the people, it seems, are behind closed doors too. Even those stores that fare well in tough times, such …

Just last month we spotted that the budget-priced Z5 was available in the UK.  Trouble was,  it cost around £145. Now the mighty Asda are doing the dual-SIM device for just £99. Although we’d probably still go for the Moto G, it’s an OK price for a handset …

The boys at Three have sent us some details on how their roll-out is going. Their deployment started in December last year but they’ve informed us that all of their customers are now on a 4G tariff. Three reckon that around 1.7 million customers are already using a …

MWC is over and done with for another year and once again it’s given us a whole lot of stuff to talk about. Dan and Leigh were out there this week covering every last tiny detail, so you can probably guess who this weeks special guest is. Yes …

A few months ago I posted an article about the Motorola RAZR i and the possibility that it would get updated to KitKat (it’s here if you’re interested) and it received quite a bit of interest as owners of the Intel Atom equipped Razr i were hoping to …

I’ve seen a lot of these articles and, looking around the hordes of press people today it all seems to be a pretty similar setup. Usually it involves a MacBook Air, some camera equipment, a phone, another phone, possibly a tablet. So after heading to my makeshift office …

We’ve all seen the Samsung Galaxy S5 and I’m already getting tired of websites calling it “disappointing” (even though it’s not, and will sell by the bucket-load). Oppo, however, have just released an image which basically states that their upcoming Find 7 will be better than the Galaxy …

Here in Barcelona Sony have a set of boxes with small holes in. You pop the Z2 camera onto the hole, take a picture and see how it compares with your current handset. When you focus on the shot there’s pretty much nothing to be seen, so you …

This is the Acer Liquid S2. It’s a monster of a device and I’ve carried around Barcelona for the past few days. It comes equipped with a 6″ Full HD IPS screen at 1920×1080 (368PPI) and has a rather smooth zero gap display with a curved Gorilla Glass …

With Microsoft about to complete the deal to purchase the Nokia handset division, there was a lot of speculation. Would we then see the end of the Nokia or Lumia brand on future phones or will these become Microsoft products? However, the good news for Nokia fans around …
