Woaha. Remember the Huawei Ascend Mate that we saw in Barcelona? Well, I’ve got one. It pushes the term “phablet” as close to “tablet” as you can get. The screen is a 6.1″ 1280×720 IPS unit and the handset itself is pretty huge. Specs include an 8 megapixel …
The Huawei Ascend W1 is one of those entry level Windows Phone 8 devices, you know the ones with 512MB of RAM yet they still run really well. Well O2 are having a clear out, no doubt down to the killer prices of the Lumia 620 and 520. …

Got £200? Good stuff, because you can always donate to keep us on the air 🙂 If you don’t fancy dishing out money to a worthy cause you can perhaps have a look at the Acer Cloud Mobile for £199.99. It’s got rave reviews and has a gorgeous …
After arriving in London for a 4 day break I knew I was going to be enjoying 4G speeds thanks to my existing EE account and having both a HTC One and Sony Xperia Z with me. However using internet on these drains the battery and these mobile …

OK, we’re confused. Sure, it’s bad enough trying to pronounce the company (is it He-oo-wii or Ho-wah-way or He-oo-way or somewhere in between?) Now.. now we have this.. errr.. picture. The jury is out on what exactly it is. Perhaps an egg gently nestling between two firm, round.. …

Yes, I know. Whenever the headline reads “less than £200” you know it’s going to be 1p less. But hey, it’s a good price for a great handset. The P1 has a definite “Galaxy SII” feel about it but we were suitably impressed in out Ascend P1 review. …

Until now Samsung had the market pretty much sorted when it came to large phone/small tablet size devices in both the Note 1. More recently the Note 2 arrived with a massive 5.5 inch display. If that’s not big enough for you and you want something with killer …
I’ve said it many, many times before and I’ll say it once again… in bold font… Watch out for Huawei When I looked at the Ascend P1 I was amazed at how good it was. It’s nothing short of fantastic, and their kit is getting better by the …
