Remember when we all watched those big TV’s? They were big, heavy and you had to get two people just to carry the thing. Remember teletext? Oh how we laughed…. In those old days we used something called “BBM” which people, who owned BlackBerry handsets, used to communicate …
When we first saw the iPhone 5s and 5c we had a small worry. Deep down we knew that the Apple brand was so strong that people really wouldn’t want the “second best” and today Reuters have reported that people seem to be preferring the 5s over the …

Using iTunes on your iPhone? Of course you are, but if you’ve thought about trying Google Music it’s really not been possible. Not fully anyway. However, there’s rumours suggesting that this will change pretty soon indeed. Engadget are stating that the iOS version is already being tested and …
The iPhone has become somewhat synonymous with quality, it’s seen by some as the ultimate status symbol. I’ve never bought into that idea, almost resisting it, just because rather than by choice. But now and again I do like to see how the latest iPhone shapes up. Whether or …
Not happy with your current phone and want to upgrade to a new iPhone? Trading it in is always a quick fix. Your phone gets valued, you get cash, then you go out and buy a flash new one. Simple. If phones were cars and “WeBuyAnyCar” suddenly saw …
A fake Apple advert claiming the new iOS7 software makes iPhones and iPads waterproof has apparently fooled some users into destroying their devices. The “advert” circulating on social media sites claims that updating devices with the operating system installs a “smart switch” that cuts off the phone’s power …
The New York Police Department has started handing out flyers outside the city’s Apple stores, asking people to update to the latest version of iOS. Well, it would appear that the police in New York are entirely fed up of chasing after iPhone thieves. In New York, iPhone and …
Depending on which side of the fence you sit, this morning was either carefully orchestrated planning or a sure sign of the iPhone success. Many waited patiently at large Apple stores up and down the country, eager to get their hands on, let’s face it, the iPhone 5s. …

Further evidence is emerging this morning following our earlier story on the iPhone 5s stock situation. It all began when we started seeing lots of pre-order offers for the iPhone 5c but absolutely none for the iPhone 5s. Yesterday we then spotted that O2 would not have any …
Three have finally revealed to us the pricing for the new iPhone 5s. It comes on the day that the handset goes on sale across the country. Three are the last of the networks here to announce their pricing. It’s perhaps because many are interested to see what …

If you intend buying a shiny new iPhone 5s and want it to look really old then it’s simple. Just post it to me, I’ll scratch it to flip, crack the screen, install loads of apps and send it back. The best bit? I only charge £400 for …
Let’s face it, the super-cheap iPhone 5c failed to really materialise. Sure, it’s here, but is it super-cheap? No. What you’re left with is (effectively) an iPhone 5 with a bit of colour or, if you’re loaded, the all-new iPhone 5s. Today Vodafone have revealed their prices for …
There’s a few games that people really latch onto and generally become huge. Where’s My Water? is definitely one of them, and has kept my son (and wife) entertained for quite a bit. Now there’s a new version, cunningly named “Where’s My Water? 2”. Oh and get this, …
We’re fairly used to seeing swish smartphone covers here at Coolsmartphone, so this rather different iPhone 5 case defnitely raised a few eyebrows. It comes via the Rakuten Japan website and, as you can no doubt see, features a rather perfect egg on some lightly browned toast. You …
Now that the dust has settled, I’ve had a chance to think about the announcements that Apple made on Tuesday, without getting caught up in the heat of the moment. Overall, I think Apple did well, even if they left many disappointed. iPhone 5S Flagship phones are getting …

All of us here at Coolsmartphone Towers have our favourite device however it can be taken for granted is that for each one of us that device is different. James P loves his Galaxy Note 2, Ravi loves his Nexus 4 while Dan likes anything new. Mark Peters …
I’ve already had two people tell me how they intend to pay or upgrade to the iPhone 5s this morning, so it’s worth letting you know where you can get one or an iPhone 5c. Firstly, we should point out that all the major networks will be picking …
Two key elements of the iPhone 5S announcement last night was the improved camera and the fingerprint scanning home button called Touch ID.

The mobile industry is incredibly fast and cut-throat. Microsoft learned that too slowly in my opinion, and the supposed launch of BBM for Android / iPhone yesterday showed yet again just how quickly things change. Earlier we heard that the BBM app was available. It turned out to …
Morning. I’ve been a little undecided about posting this one. Yes, if you love your iPhone you might be swearing at your screen shortly. However, based purely on the amount of “Thumbs ups” this video has received. I’m guessing that many iPhone fans enjoyed it too. So it’s …
Well folks it’s official…… Apple have just sent out invites to a press event at their Cupertino HQ where at least one iPhone is expected to be announced but with many rumours we will actually see two. The different colour dots on the invitation would sort of hint …
