New York? No. We’re in London. It’s almost the same. In just a few minutes we’ll get our hands on the new OnePlus 6T as it receives the official launch treatment. You can watch the live video at the bottom of this page or, just for the kicks, …
You’ll know from posts like this that we’ve been around the internet for quite some time now. We remember when a Palm device looked like this, but now a “Palm” is going to look like this… In my head this is a lot like the Unihertz Jelly Pro …
After the trials in April, Vodafone have become to the first network to switch on “full 5G” in the UK with live traffic going over a site in Salford. OK, so you can’t use your smartphone on super-fast 5G just yet, but instead this mast is helping provide …
Well, I totally busted the content of this story in the title didn’t I? Well, there’s a minor caveat – you’re going to have to spend £50 per month for this particular contract and £29 up-front – but you do get 26GB of monthly data for that. Other …
If you want to see more about the new Huawei Mate 20 Pro, look no further than our video hands-on.. It’ll be on sale on October 26th, but you can pre-order it already. First of all, Sky Mobile (who use O2 masts) have announced prices, which start at …
OnePlus are quickly becoming a huge player in the smartphone business, making the phones people want at an affordable price. Until now in the UK, your only network of choice was O2 unless you bought an unlocked and used your own SIM, however this comes at a cost …
The Pixel 3 has a 5.5″ (FHD+ flexible OLED at 443 ppi) 18:9 display and measures 145.6 x 68.2 mm. The Pixel 3 XL has a 6.3″ (QHD+ OLED at 523ppi) 18.5:9 screen and measures 158 x 76.7mm. Both run Android 9 Pie, both have 12.2 dual-megapixel cameras …
As Britain limps in disarray towards a badly-handled Brexit, we still have a few more months being part of the EU. It means that we can fly to France, Spain, Germany, Cyprus, Greece or Sweden and make calls, text or browse just like we were back in the …
During IFA we took a look at the Sony Xperia XZ3. It has a 6″ 2880 x 1440 OLED screen, a 19 megapixel Exmor RS MotionEye camera at the back, a 13 megapixel up-front and an S-Force speaker. Powered by a 3,330mAh battery, it has a Qualcomm Snapdragon …
The CTO at Vodafone UK, Scott Petty, wanted to show us what 5G can really do last week. The new tech will definitely make everything faster, but how will it benefit our lives otherwise? Well, with the aid of England and Manchester City Women’s Football Captain Steph Houghton, …
We’ve rattled on about the new iPhone models quite a bit today. However, if you’re not blessed with pots of money or just don’t fancy carrying a £1000+ lump in your pocket, you can now get yourself an IMO Q2 Plus with Vodafone. This budget smaertphone is just …
Yes, I know that pre-orders went live on Friday, but real life took over and I had to fit some blinds. Apologies folks. After our big iPhone XS and iPhone XS coverage you should know everything you need to know. However, if you want to get it from …
So Vodafone called. They said, “Hey man, we’ll give you a holiday in the Caribbean and brand new Audi R8 if you mention the fact that we’re doing to Huawei Mate 20 lite.” “What?” I said, “You mean the one we mentioned last week? The one that’s well …
A couple of weeks ago I was lucky enough to be in the USA. As it was a quick visit, I’d not really organised any local SIM and took my normal Vodafone handset. When the plane touched down I received the usual text message from Vodafone advising on …
We’ve seen quite a few devices from Vodafone lately which aren’t phones. Whilst some of these gadgets are definitely aimed at businesses (automotive tracking, smart cameras and the like), we’ve felt a definite push for gadgets that you could use at home too. Three years ago we took …
I’m kinda lucky at home. I’ve got 300Mbps broadband from Virgin Media, but although it’s marketed as “fibre broadband” it – and many other “superfast fibre” connections – actually aren’t delivered via fibre all the way. Instead, the last bit, from the local street cabinet to your house, …
My job now sees me based on a farm. The signal there is, let me tell you, non-existent. Strangely, on the drive in, the signal on the country road is fine, but when you’ve gone up the long drive it suddenly drops down. All the networks, and believe …
For some, switching networks is like switching banks. They just don’t do it. Just recently I met someone who still thought he was on “Orange” as he hadn’t upgraded for so long. So, if you do jump networks, it can be a surprise if things don’t quite match …
Seven cities will become 5G test areas for Vodafone. Birmingham, Bristol, Cardiff, Glasgow, Liverpool, London and Manchester will then see deployments beginning in October. Vodafone will be pushing “Gigabit UK”, where customers can enjoy ultra-fast connection speeds of one gigabit per second via 5G. Across those cities, engineers …
Are you looking for a new deal? Looking to start a new contract? Well, if you’re perhaps with another network right now and you’re looking to switch to Vodafone, listen up my friend. The nice people at TopCashBack have let me know that, for the next two days …
You’ll often find some interesting things when searching the network “Coming Soon” pages. This time it is Vodafone who have something. The company have two new branded smartphones showing as coming soon… The Vodafone N9 would appear to be mid-range device featuring a 5.5 inch HD+ quality screen …
Vodafone have today updated their popular ‘Bundle’ deals for customers who are on PAYG and do not want a contract. The network still offers unlimited texts on all offers but have improved either with more minutes or data. These improvements are highlighted in red above, and still include …
This offer comes via mobiles.co.uk and delivers unlimited texts and unlimited calls. You get 4GB of data too. Yes, there’s the small matter of the £135 up-front payment, but you could probably sell your old phone and cover that. Also, there’s £10 off with the voucher code, so …
After 10 years in charge of the Vodafone Group, today Vittorio Colao has announced he is to stand down. Colao has been key in the turn around of the company over the recent years, including the $130bn sale of their share in Verizon Wireless in America several years …
VOXI is a brand from UK network Vodafone that’s aimed at the youth market. If you love your social media and want good pricing, VOXI is for you. The catch was to be a VOXI customer you had to be 26 or under to get a SIM, however …
When I was a kid, “sports” was something you did in PE (Physical Education) at school. There we would be, standing in a freezing cold field, wearing nothing more than a T-shirt and shorts. The PE teacher, with a cigarette hanging out of the corner of his mouth, …
The Introduction Just a week or so ago we posted the Sony Xperia XZ1 review, so it would only be right to follow it up with the newer XZ2. As they have done so many times in the past, Vodafone UK kindly loaned us one so we could …
Yes, the A8, not the S8. The Galaxy A8 is a new mid-range device which fits into that uncomfortable “it’s a bit like an S8 but I bought the cheaper version” slot. It’s a tad heavier than the Galaxy S8, but still has the 18.5:9 screen and glass …
Just a week after securing the largest block of 3.4GHz spectrum for 5G, Vodafone have already started testing it on their network. The company paid around £370m to get a 50MHz allowance of 5G spectrum, the largest of all networks, and have started to test in Manchester and …
As far as phones with a stand-out features go, the ZTE Axon M is definitely one of the most interesting to look at. We took a look at it in Barcelona and about the only thing we didn’t like was the price. Two expensive screens instead of one …
Vodafone have sent an email to let us know the Sony Xperia XZ2 and XA2 devices announced at MWC are now available. Missed the launch? Don’t worry, we’ve got you covered with all the details here. The XZ2 is the flagship phone and brings a dramatic new design, …
It only seems like yesterday we were talking about the 4G spectrum here in the UK. That was to support the “next” generation of networks. However, we’re now seeing the first deployment stages of 5G, and the results of the auction are in. O2 won big with snapping …
The Introduction Sony have had a mixed reaction to their phones. The design has changed very little since the launch of the Xperia Z, and even with a high megapixel numbers in their camera, some people have had varied results. In comes the Xperia XZ1, which takes the best …
Vodafone operate a scheme called the “Community Connection Award” where it donates money to great causes across the UK. Today we have received information of a £1000 donation made in Weymouth to help young people in the area. This will go to the “STEPPs Club For Young People”, which …
You can, according to the press release we’ve just had, head to your local Voda store today to get the new 9.7″ iPad. It’ll also be coming to the website on Thursday 5th April, 2018. Pricing depends on the amount of data you’re after. If you’re mostly using …
Vodafone have always had some great roaming offers, and they often get quite public about being the best network for roaming. They’re are not just just great on their pricing abroad, they offer the most locations for 4G roaming from any UK network, and when I tried in …
With Vodafone? Wanna be with Vodafone? Wanna get the new P20 or P20 Pro? Listen up, my friend, listen up. Both the Huawei P20 and P20 Pro are now available to pre-order at Vodafone UK. You can grab the Huawei P20 with 16GB of data for the price …
Just the other day Vodafone confirmed that they were going to range the P20, P20 Lite and the P20 Pro. To be honest we knew that the P20 was coming but we weren’t aware that there was going to be a P20 Lite or a P20 Pro. What …
Ah.. now. We’re in a tricky position again with this. Technically none of the handsets actually exist yet. They’ve not been launched, but Vodafone have confirmed that they’ll be ranging them soon. Whilst this is good news, but the launch hasn’t happened, and it won’t do until March …
Yes, the moon. The actual moon. Methinks they’re going to need a bigger coverage map. They’ll be using “Ultra Compact Network” kit, the lightest ever developed. It weighs less than a bag of sugar. In a partnership with Nokia, the Vodafone 4G network will enable the first live-streaming …
