I recently bought a new mobile phone, and it is actually the first phone I have ever bought that I am still happy with three months later! Over the years I have managed to pick out some pretty terrible phones, but this time I think I have hit the jackpot! Not that it was hard to do – there has been so much publicity around the new I Phone 4 that I knew I was getting a great product. I ... Read More

Every year I try to get a cheap mobile phone, and every year I fail! I think this is because I actually go for low cost contracts, and in the end I end up exceeding the limitations on the contract, meaning that anything on top of my free minutes and texts I pay through the nose for. I have recently done a very boring task, and I have gone through each and every one of my bills from my last ... Read More

Whenever I am trying to find a new phone I always find that it is almost impossible because you just can't see the wood for the trees. I will be searching for a particular type of phone, but you just get hit by an enormous amount of different phones anyway, because all of the sites are optimising their sites so that you end up seeing something completely unrelated to what you searched for! Personally I think that there is ... Read More

If like me you are looking for a decent phone that has excellent musical capabilities then there is plenty of choice out there for you. I was pretty overwhelmed when I started a search for a phone online recently, but in the end I managed to narrow it down to one. The biggest problem at first was flitting from one site to the other, looking at hundreds of phones from hundreds of different companies. A pattern soon started to emerge ... Read More

The HTC Desire is one of the hottest phones currently on the market and its popularity has led to shortages in stock levels. If you are planning to pick up a Desire with the intention of taking it abroad, then its roaming abilities should not disappoint. The Desire is compatible with the majority of international networking standards and its quad band compatibility means that it will operate well in both Europe and the USA. Selecting a network by hand or ... Read More

The Belkin BodyGuard Cinema iPhone Case looks like it is one of the most useful iPhone cases we have seen so far, as it features a built in kickstand, which lets you stand the iPhone on a desk or any flat surface. Personally I think this is a great idea, and this is one case I will definitely be buying, as I wont have to rest my iPhone on something next time I go on a plane. Unfortunately there ... Read More

Over at Gadzooki, I share five reasons why I’m excited about the Nokia Booklet 3G, the Windows 7 netbook announced yesterday by the dominant mobile company. Now that my initial excitement has worn off, here are four thoughts from my inner late-blooming skeptic: Courtesy Nokia Specs: Too Good to be True? 12 hours of battery life is awesome! But Nokia has learned to play the battery overestimation game? Will actual battery life be more like 3 hours, as ... Read More

At below $300 unlocked, the Nokia 6600i Slide seems to be the manufacturer’s to offer stylishness for the budget-conscious consumer (or at least in the case of the US, buyers who are willing to spend a bit more on unlocked phones, but not too much). The quad-band sliding phone features a washed metal finish, 3G capability, a sliding form factor, and a 5 megapixel camera. It comes in black and silver. The use of S40 limits the phone’s potential somewhat, ... Read More

I finally updated my cell phone, not because I wanted to but because my other half put mine through the washing machine. I am pretty impressed with my new LG Reveal so far. It's light, easy to learn and the buttons are just about right for texting and entering in all of my old phone numbers. The battery went down pretty quick but I think it's because I had a bubble on the front page showing useless news all day. ... Read More

Nokia’s audio-centric XpressMusic 5610 serves as a niche device for those who want a portable jukebox packaged in along with their phone, but without all the bulk of a full-on convergence device like the iPhone. We liked the highly practical form-factor, feel and emphasis on an easy-to-access media player, but also felt it needed some more tweaking on the software side. As part of its full-on pitch to music fans, Nokia has equipped the XpressMusic a personal media player, ... Read More

Hop-on has a new handset that targets senior citizens - the HOP1890 phone, also known as the ChitterChatter. I wonder whether the number in the naming convention has anything to do with the average birth date of its target market, but I digress. Just in case you’re wondering what the ChitterChatter is all about, it is a phone that offers a call center service round the clock, where operators are able to place calls, offer directory assistance as well as ... Read More
