For those of you who’ve heard me banging on about this “MWC” thing for days, let’s just give you a bit of background. Mobile World Congress, or MWC for short, is a rather huge event held yearly in Barcelona. New handsets are launched, services are announced, accessories are …
Earlier on in the week Acer teased us with an image from the rear of an unannounced phone. We covered that here but it seemed they were going to wait until MWC before they actually showed the world what it was. No, they’re not waiting, they’ve gone and …
Remember Google Reader? Well that was replaced in 2011 with the Google Currents app. Now there is currently a update being pushed out to the Currents app. What hat does this update bring to the table I hear you ask? This magical update basically wipes the Google Currents …
As MWC looms ever closer, we’re getting ready for rhe official LG launch of the G2 mini and were a little surprised to see that LG have decided to out the handset today instead. LG G2 mini is set to be a smaller, mid-range version of the flagship …
Tonight we’re hearing some breaking news that Facebook will be buying WhatsApp for a rather colossal $19 billion. WhatsApp are calling it a partnership but, for that amount of money (£11.4 billion in cash and shares), there’s more than a few raised eyebrows. It’s 35% of Facebooks’ total …

It’s another one from serial-leaker @evleaks and adds a small amount of extra detail to leaks we’ve already seen. This image of the HTC One 2, HTC Two or the “New HTC One” (depending what you choose to believe naming-wise) shows the handset in gold.. We’re now assuming …

Not too many years ago we were amazed at the thought of having a 1 megapixel camera on our mobile phone. Little did we know where all this was heading. If you think the current ‘selfie’ craze was big, it seems people sharing cat photos is even bigger! …
HTC today unveiled their HTC advantage scheme, which gives HTC One owners a host of benefits. It’s not just One owners who get benefits, it’s the whole One range so the Mini and Max gets bonuses as well. Unfortunately it is just US only at the moment but …
Well, as we sort-of expected, the possible HTC M8 reveal looks to be after Mobile World Congress. HTC, like Samsung last year, look to have chosen a separate venue to launch their new phone, rather than the ultra-busy Barcelona mobile event. It comes after we revealed how quiet …
Now, I’m not going to talk about those trade-in websites that’ll offer you a few quid for your mobile. I’m actually going to talk about those slightly different websites that constantly ask whether you’ve got any gold. Me, I know the answer already. I’ve got no gold. I …

We’ve seen the HTC M8 leaks, we’ve seen rumoured names like the HTC One 2 kicking around, but one thing we haven’t seen is any invite or news of a launch in Barcelona. Mobile World Congress starts in days. We’re getting on the plane on Saturday and we’ve …
Remember our HTC Desire 500 review? Well, this is the Desire 300, and it’s a …. bit… different. The Desire 500 has a quad-core 1.2GHz CPU, an 8 megapixel and 1.6 megapixel camera. This Desire 300 has a dual-core 1GHz CPU and a 5 megapixel shooter with a …
