Today is the day when people either lose their calm, get into a fight over saving £9.99 on a TV in a store, enter a spiral of misfortune and wake up in a prison cell… or they don’t. Luckily we know the Coolsmartphone.com readers to be more clever …
Right. We’ve just about to explode with the amount of Black Friday deals that have been dropped into our mailbox. Black Friday apparently lasts for well over a week now, but as we actually get close to the actual day we’re seeing some of the best ones. First …
I have been glued to a community forum for the past few days, and… I think I may have a problem. However, the reason for this is due to the fact that the Eve V 2 in 1 (Surface competitor) was launching. Well, it launched on Monday at …
Memory. We have memories of when smartphones used to be amazeballs with 256MB internal memory. Nowadays that just doesn’t do the job any more. Most people in the world use an Android smartphone at the moment, and the majority of those devices have expandable memory, thanks to MicroSD …
Years ago, before flat screen monitors, we had big chunky PC’s with big chunky CRT monitors. Laptops weighed half a tonne and smartphones were just a dream. The internet? You’re joking son. If you were at work in these times (which, granted, seems like something from the prehistoric …
Thinking of getting a smart home? The clever learning thermostat, Nest, and the indoor camera, Nest Cam Indoor, have both been reduced in price this weekend. From today until 8AM on Monday both items have been reduced by £30. That brings the thermostat, which we reviewed here, down …
We’ve written about it on Coolsmartphone.com. We’ve talked about it on the Coolsmartphone Podcast. We’ve bought some, and some of us use one daily. The Amazon Fire 7″ is now £29.99 at Amazon. Running Fire OS, Amazon’s distribution of Android, with microSD expansion, and sporting a pretty sturdy …
OK, now we’ve got Sainsbury’s contacting us. They’ve never done that before, but now supermarkets want to talk to us. Nothing from Waitrose just yet, but I doubt I’ll ever mix in those social circles. Anyhoo, Sainsbury’s tell us that they’ve got some electrical kit in their Friday …
Doing a review of a solar charging system at this time of year isn’t perhaps my wisest decision, especially not here in the UK on a cold and wet November day. It’s going to be dark by 4PM, but I’ve got a solar charging device from Archeer. This …
Right. Yadda, yadda, yadda, Black Friday. Deals. Bargains. Offers. Spend lots of money. Take many years to pay it back. Stress about it, but bury your head in the sand and look at the shiny, shiny. Yay. Today it’s Argos, and a load of Black Friday deals have, …
A price reduction is good, but to be reduced twice this week? That’s something. This is the Huawei Watch and I’ve actually just had a “moment” while looking at the Amazon listing. “Ohh”, I thought, “That looks nice, I wonder what it’s like?” Yeah. I’d actually forgotten about …
EE announced today their intentions for Black “Friday” which apparently runs from Wednesday to Monday in their eyes! Pay Monthly Mobile Deals EE will offer a range of deals including a £149.99 saving on either the Apple iPhone 6s, Samsung Galaxy S6 or Huawei P9 handsets on pay monthly …
VaragtP Studios have today launched a cute garden game called Planetera. The purpose of the game is to create your own virtual garden with cute creatures of various shapes and sizes called helpers.

We’re quickly heading towards the credit-card bashing Black Friday sales and, amongst the emails this morning, I spotted that Honor were getting ready to drop their already-cheap Honor 8 to just £299 on Friday. The handset, which normally retails at £369.99, has two 4-core processors, a 5.2″ Full …
OK. Are you ready to have your mind blown? To be honest I was going to put “This will blow your mind – charge your iPhone and your Android phone with one cable” in the title, but it sounded a little too click-baity. Whether your main handset is …
A brand new waterproof phone without a 3.5mm headset? No, it’s not that one. This is a new handset from HTC, although I should call it new-ish because it has already been on sale in the USA as the HTC Bolt exclusively on Sprint. The phone arrives with …
As the internet continues to become more prevalent in day-to-day life, so too does the role of tech gadgets. We now use smartphones, tablets, laptops and other devices to perform a myriad number of functions that in years past required individual, separate devices. From basic math calculations to …
Matchmaking. Internet dating. Online relationships. These are all words and phrases that used to carry a certain amount of embarrassment, but those days are now in the distant past. Now there’s all manner of dating and relationship apps, from the sublime to the ridiculous. This one claims a …
Black Friday apparently started weeks ago! Somehow I think some vendors have forgotten the Friday element. Anyway, I am not complaining! Deals we have seen so far: Google Chromecast Audio £15 @ Currys www.wbca.st/JZCKvw Sony Smartwatch 3 Classic now £69.99 @ Currys www.wbca.st/lJkX1w SIM Free LG G5 Smartphone …
It has been a few weeks now since the latest Acer tablet arrived on my desk at Coolsmartphone towers. In that time I have been using it as my main day-to-day device for media consumption. I have not really been using it for very much in the way of work …
