Perhaps I’m getting a little old or a bit “fuddy duddy”, but this seems a bit wrong to me. Sure, my four-year-old son plays with an iPad. We restrict his time with it because, along with a Nintendo, he can quickly get addicted. However, this Fisher Price product …

Have a look around you. Go on.. can you see someone with a Samsung phone? Is it a Galaxy device? Yeah. It’s the success of the Galaxy smartphones that have helped to boost the profits of Samsung by a massive 76% in the last three months of 2012. …

Now and again you come across something so cool on YouTube you just have to share it. Today is one of those days. @mr_bridger from Twitter has been busy with his Nexus 7 and his car dashboard. He has basically removed the old panel, got a new one …

Sure, things aren’t fantastic. Windows Phone handsets haven’t caught the imagination in quite the same way as Android and iOS devices, but there’s something to celebrate at least. Stats from Kantar Worldpanel show that Windows Phone market share has hit 5.9% here in Britain. Whilst that may not seem massive …

We’re expecting Samsung to reveal an 8″ version of the Galaxy Note this year at MWC (last year, you may remember, it was all about the 10.1″ model) and now there’s some apparent photos of the device over on dday.it. The snaps seem to have been taken accidentally-on-pupose …

I love Kickstarter, it’s a great website. Since I backed Pebble almost a year ago I have been backing other projects all over the place, I just can’t control myself. Someone in the same position as me described the Pebble as a gateway drug that fueled their addiction …

There is always one late comer to every party.  In this case, Samsung announced the Windows Phone 8 touting Ativ S back in August of 2012 but didn’t actually manage to release it until December, almost a whole month after the Nokia Lumia 920. Still as the saying …

Regular listeners (and now viewers) of our podcast will know that I recently moved from a Galaxy Note 2 back to the iPhone 5.  I won’t go into the reasons why here, as it’s worth a good article on it’s own. On the whole, I’m happy with that …

Nokia have announced their turn-by-turn navigation software, Drive+, is no longer a Lumia exclusive, and is available on all Windows 8 handsets in the US, UK, and Canada. It is specifically noted that the software is in Beta, so don’t expect perfection just yet (*cough* Apple maps *cough*). …

This is the third in the RHA series that we here at Coolsmartphone have reviewed following on from the MA350’s and the CA-200 headphones. Both the 350’s and the CA200’s were impressive with the RHA-MA350’s being particularly good. So, how do the current top of the range MA450i’s …
