I thought it would be a good idea to take you on a tour around Hall 7 here at Mobile World Congress. Indeed, we got to see the Gionee S8 5.5″ Android handset with a full metal body and Intex, with their Cyanogen-based handset. Unfortunately, somewhere along the …

This isn’t the Nokia you know and love(d). This is the network side, but it’s good to see the name getting such massive exposure here in Barcelona. The stand they have here is nothing short of colossal, with lots of unused space just… because they can. There’s a …
Intel have quite a few innovations on show here, including tracking sensors and a pair of glasses with a miniature TV screen in to show you how fast you’re running or how far you’ve cycled. The glasses are called the “Recon Jet” (don’t ask me why) and display …

Right, let’s attack this straight on shall we? The booth babes aren’t here. Not strictly speaking, no. However, in reality a lot of companies have put very attractive ladies right at the front of the stands. It’s an age-old “trick” to attract the thousands and thousands of suited …
Ask me about a smartphone with a projector and I’ll probably point out the Samsung Galaxy Beam that we saw here in Barcelona some four years ago. It made a bit of a comeback in 2014 and Lenovo gave it a bash last year too. However, for reasons …

Short version. I’ve been doing this for a good amount of years now and I’ve developed my own way of covering live events. Also, after cycling over the pennines and from London to Paris with nothing more than a backpack, you learn to “go light”. So, here’s my …
In the madness of Mobile World Congress, you’ll quickly put together an article to meet the click-hunger that surrounds a large mobile phone launch. Last night, as we started seeing the phones in the flesh, there was an elephant in the room. These handsets may, to some customers, …
