| The Samsung Galaxy S4 ($699) is the most hotly anticipated smartphone ever from the Korean brand, and with a glut of top end features, it’s the most powerful and desirable device Samsung has created yet. One of the most impressive things about the phone is the fact the size hasn’t changed from its predecessor - the Galaxy S4 comes in at 136.6 x 69.8 x 7.9 mm, meaning there’s no extra heft to try and work with in your palm. |

| Smartphone Sony Xperia Z (16GB) Review (Part 2) |

|
| Smartphone Sony Xperia Z (16GB) Review (Part 1) |
| Sony’s jump to a Full HD display is obvious to the naked eye when working with high-res images and text. Web pages and eBooks are rendered beautifully and at 443ppi (pixels per inch), the Z’s display puts plenty of breathing room between itself and rivals like the 326ppi iPhone 5. |

| Karbonn A9+ - Surprisingly Brilliant |
| SIM Cards slotted in, Micro SD card fixed and we were all set to test the phone. Starting with the basics, the calling function works like a charm and the sound quality was perfect on both ends. The 5 megapixel camera offers great performance in both daytime and during the night (thanks to the LED flash). |

| Mobile Phones Have Changed the World |

| Nokia Lumia 720 - Windows Phone 8 with Long Battery Life |
| The Lumia 720 sports a distinctively plastic finish, but the unibody design means the Lumia 720 has a solid construction giving it a reassuring presence in the hand - although there’s not much grip to be had. At 128g it is a decent weight and it’s a well-balanced handset providing a relatively comfortable hold. |
|
| Nokia's Lumia 920 - The Windows 8 Star |
| The super-smartphone competition just got hotter with the launch of the Lumia series from Nokia and the 920 is the flagship, which is ready to lead from the front.

| Battle Of The Superphones - Bigger, Better, Bolder! (Part 2) |
| The Galaxy S4 has a plethora of cool features that were showcased during their amusing presentation, including dual-camera mode and moving images. Whereas some of these features might be a bit gimmicky, but there is no denying the fact that the 13MP snapper on this S4 is really good, but low-light performance might not be as great as the HTC, which seemingly has the Ultrapixel advantage. |
|
| Battle Of The Superphones - Bigger, Better, Bolder! (Part 1) |
| The theatrical manner in which Samsung announced their latest and greatest mobile phone to an amused audience should only make you wonder I what is going on in the world of smartphones. During the entire 2 hour or so presentation, not once did Samsung mention anything about Android, the quad-core (US version) and octa-core (International version) CPU, the 2GB of RAM or any such awesome spec. |
|
| HTC One Phone - A Spectacular Piece Of Engineering |
| HTC claimed that the camera in its new phone can capture 300% more light than the cameras in existing phones. It can also produce better HDR pictures and videos. Just like the camera in Lumia 920, the camera in HTC One features optical image stabilization. Considering that HTC have announced the phone a week before one of the largest events in the mobile industry - The Mobile World Congress, this must be considered as a bold move. |
|
| Huawei Ascend W1 - An Excellent Windows Phone |
| The Ascend W1 does feel a bit bezel-heavy especially below the display, with the three navigation keys housed in a sea of black coupled with the chassis peeking out below. This adds extra length to the W1, but it’s not too much hassle in terms of the size as the W1 measures a manageable 124.5 x 63.7mm. |
|
| It Is All About "10" For Blackberry In 2013 |
| Blackberry have also announced a device with a keyboard that will hit the shelves in April, called the Q10 (possibly the internationally branded X10) and confirmed Ranbir Kapoor as their new brand ambassador. So here is what we thinks about the new Blackberry OS 10. |
|
| All That You Need To Know About The App Universe |
| Nokia was probably the first ones to create phones that were Java based and allowed third party app installations on its devices. You must have heard about J2ME in the early 2000's. This is probably what led to the birth of the app industry. |

| BWC 7” HD Tablet - Super Slim and Light 7 Inch Android Tablet |
| The budget tablet market is awash with devices vying for your attention, and the latest to enter the fray is from BWC. At seven inches, the tablets utilizes the standard black slab look, but with a wide bezel encompassing the slightly odd 1,024 x 600 resolution screen. |
|
| BWC RazerThin 10 Inch HD - Widescreen Android Tablet |
| The first thing you'll notice about the BWC RazerThin is the complete absence of any major features on its front or back. The familiar black slab look is in full effect here, just like the 7” offering, but the metallic back is a welcome addition. |
|
| Acer Iconia Tab A510 - The Most Comfortable Tablet |
| The action is all powered by a quad-core 1.3GHz Nvidia Tegra 3 processor, which is backed up by 1GB of RAM, and there’s a healthy 32GB of on-board storage for all your digital files. This can be increased by up to 32GB more by making use of the microSD. |
|
| Asus Transformer Pad Infinity |

|
| Sony Xperia Go - A Mid-Range Smartphone |
| Sony’s first rugged handset since ditching Ericsson as its partner, the Sony Xperia Go has taken a number of design hints from its fellow Android Xperia-branded siblings, lining up with an appealing aesthetic that detracts from the hard-wearing rugged nature of the svelte smartphone. |
|
| Sony Xperia Tipo - Android Touch Phone |
| The Sony Xperia Tipo is the latest addition to the Xperia smartphone range, and it’s undoubtedly the baby of the family. It comes in at around $150, with an 800MHz single-core processor, 512MB of RAM, 2.5GB of storage, 3.2MP camera and a 3.2-inch 320 x 480 display. |

With stock Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich and a dual-core Tegra 2 processor, the Grand X sets out to give you a lot of bangs for not a lot of bucks. |
|
| Kogan Agora - A Big Screen Android Mobile |
| Dual-SIM support is rare enough in any handset and to see it pop up in such a low-cost phone is a real treat. The software support for a double SIM setup is good and you could easily combine work and home SIMs, or save the second slot for the cheap local SIM you buy when you are travelling and don’t want to get stung by roaming costs. It’s a nice option to have. |
|
| LG Optimus 4X HD - A Slate, Multi-Touch Smartphone |
| LG really needed to do something to keep up with the power and popularity of the Samsung Galaxy S3 and HTC One X, so it’s joined the quad-core gang with the LG Optimus 4X HD - but is it too little, too late? |
|
| Motorola Razr Maxx - Extended Phone Battery Life |
| The Motorola RAZR Maxx is the same phone as the Motorola RAZR, albeit with a more powerful battery and a slightly bulkier chassis. We gave the original RAZR four stars and everything we liked about that handset can be found here. Even though you lose some of the slender goodness, the benefit of having a larger battery is quite clear. |

|
| HTC One - Great For Music-Lovers (Part 3) |
| The HTC One runs Android 4.1.2 with HTC’s Sense 5 skin. It’s a vast improvement over previous versions of Sense. It’s quicker and lighter than in the past, the cartoony graphics have been largely replaced by a more mature styling and there’s far less bloat. |
|
| HTC One - Great For Music-Lovers (Part 2) |
| Even though HTC has made the One about much more than its core specs, the device is still bleeding edge and still holds its own against all. There’s a quad-core Krait processor clocked at 1.7GHz, Adreno 320 graphics and 2GB of RAM, which all help things move along as smoothly as possible. |
|
| HTC One - Great For Music-Lovers (Part 1) |
| The power button is located on the top-left of the phone, and is a little hard to reach. However, it doubles up as an IR port you can use to control your TV. It's one of the most welcome additional features we've seen in some time |
|
| Huawei Ascend P1 Android Smartphone |
| The Ascend P1 is a brave new step for Huawei, a company that has been quietly making budget smartphones for years and has produced some impressive network-branded phones for Orange in the past. |
|
| Blackberry Z10 - It’s Up Against Some Tough Competition |
| Unlike many BlackBerry handsets, the Z10 doesn’t have a physical keyboard; all input is made using its touchscreen. Physically, it’s a fairly uninspiring black rectangle with rounded corners, but it feels tough. There’s no flex at all in the body, and the rubber rear means you’re unlikely to drop it. |
