Way back in March 2014, before I started going grey after typing a ber-zillion posts a week, I took a look at the banana-shaped G Flex from LG. What they were basically trying to do was make an impact. People had seen the same old political parties slab-shaped …
You guys come here, hopefully, because you love your gadgets and smartphones. Even those who don’t have a vested interest in the latest technology probably still have a smartphone of some kind, and they’re probably more than capable of surfing the web, getting Facebook updates and plugging themselves …
Yay! Just a few weeks to Mobile World Congress and we’re getting the inevitable leaks ahead of the event. Yesterday we found some early details on the HTC One M9 but now we have some prototype photos and, as expected, it looks very similar to the already award-winning …
Picture the scene. You’ve been held up in traffic for ages. You’ve got sunburn from the brake lights of the car in front. Eventually, after shuffling along on the motorway for what seems like hours, you see the cause of your misery. A truck, on it’s side and …
Whether you’ve got a big microSD card in your phone or you’ve got plenty of on-board storage, backing your stuff up to the cloud is always a good idea. There’s a big selection of online storage providers, or you can get yourself a NAS drive and backup those …
Packing an always-on display, 400mAh battery (which is enough for a day of activity) and powered by Android Wear, this is the LG G Watch. It’s both dust and water resistant, plus you can just say “OK Google” to ask it questions, such as “Come on KITT buddy, …
Yes, you really are seeing this. That “joke picture” circling around the internet featuring a guy holding his phone on the end of a stick is an actual product. It’s called the Me-Shot Deluxe and, to be fair, is a bit more than just a big stick. A …
We’ve already seen LG announce details of the case for the G3 before it’s even been announced (which was… weird) and last night we saw a massive stack of videos. Now another shot has appeared, courtesy of the usual suspect. Blimey, just a few leaks then! Now, we …
During our time with Lenovo last week we got chance to have a look at a couple of software additions that you’ll find on their new handsets. The first is SHAREit – which is an app you can download on iPhone and Android. It’s an incredibly simple way …
Not too many years ago we were amazed at the thought of having a 1 megapixel camera on our mobile phone. Little did we know where all this was heading. If you think the current ‘selfie’ craze was big, it seems people sharing cat photos is even bigger! …
Don’t you just hate it when you hand your phone to a friend to have a look at a picture you’ve taken and they then start looking through the rest of your shots? Well there’s an app for that now. Focus photo sharing deals with this exact problem. …
It’s your special day you usually need to splash out on a photographer. They’ll sell you a package which includes cards, an album and perhaps even a DVD. Your wedding will also get captured on a very expensive camera or two. However. What would happen if your photographer …
Every now and then, usually when I’m just falling asleep, I have mad ideas for the site. I tried to stick a smartphone to my car once to try and create a cheap version of the GoPro sports camera. It didn’t work. The phone fell off somewhere up …
Take yourself a quad-core 1.2GHz CPU, 4GB of on-board storage (plus a microSD card slot for more space) and a 4.3″ WVGA screen. Sounds good so far. Add a dash of GPS, a 3.5mm audio port, Bluetooth 4.0, DLNA, WiFi and the Beats Audio technology. All this stuff, …
Yes, I’m busy writing another review, but I figured you’d like to see some up-close shots of the new Ascend P6 from Huawei. The specs include a 4.7″ 1280×720 display, a quad-core 1.5GHz processor, Android 4.2 and is an just 7mm thick. On the lower left of the …
So, I’ve told you how to see the International Space Station easily, now let’s move onto that meteor shower everyone is talking about. Yes, you’ll be needing your phone again. Yes, you’ll be stood in your garden at night using the camera on your phone. Yes, it’s possible …
Morning all. I’ve got two bits of good news for you today. First, it’s Friday. Secondly, we’ve got a beautiful red HTC One for review. Yay! Now, I’ll let you into a secret. Come, follow me around the back of the Coolsmartphone servers and we’ll have a quick …
For years now many have said that a phone camera will never replace a normal standalone digital camera. However, has that now changed with the introduction of smartphones such as the Nokia 808 PureView, Samsung S4 Zoom and the 41 megapixel Lumia 1020? These new advanced low-light optics, …
We’ve got a few precious days with the ever-so-slightly-smaller brother of the HTC One. Sure, the CPU, memory and storage on the HTC One mini is not quite as good as the bigger HTC One, but it’s still a gorgeous looking handset which packs the BoomSound technology, Beats …
Recently I went on a holiday I have always wanted…. a week in New York. I was also lucky enough to have a Lumia 925 on me at the time (big thanks to Nokia Connects). The camera is really good at low-light photos and the PureView technology meant …
So you’ve taken a nice picture and want to edit it. What do you do? Well, some handsets have some on-board editing tools and you could shove a picture into Instagram but here’s something a bit more in-depth. Fotor is a complete multi-platform solution. You can get in …
Flickr the original photo sharing website has had a bit of an upgrade during the night, as part of Yahoo’s new direction Flickr has had a refresh and the main selling point here is a whole Terabyte of storage. That’s a whole lot of photos, Flickr have actually …
Remember that story about Goldilocks and the three bears? The little tike broke into their house, gobbled up some porridge, tried out some chairs and then went and had a kip on all the beds. The naughty little sausage. But what’s “just right” for you eh? The big …
As mentioned in my initial impressions, the lovely people over at Clove.co.uk have leant us a Samsung Ativ S for a little while. Today whilst walking my dog I thought that I would take some snaps. It was early in the morning just as the light was beginning to …
We’re expecting Samsung to reveal an 8″ version of the Galaxy Note this year at MWC (last year, you may remember, it was all about the 10.1″ model) and now there’s some apparent photos of the device over on dday.it. The snaps seem to have been taken accidentally-on-pupose …
Following the back-lash from users, photo-tweaking-and-sharing site Instagram has now returned to their original terms and conditions. A blog post has been added which states…. The concerns we heard about from you the most focused on advertising, and what our changes might mean for you and your photos. …
As Promised in my review here are some photos I have taken with the LG Optimus 4X HD.
So, we took a walk over Cannock Chase this weekend and I … crashed the car into a rock. Wehay! No seriously. I properly broke the car. Anyhow, before all that happened I’d had requests from you guys for more example photos from the Huawei Ascend P1. We …
A few websites have been throwing around a possible launch date of the new iPhone – August 7th. If true this gives us less than a month away. There have been leaked photos (like the one below) of what we are expecting the new flagship phone from Apple …
HTC have sent us their new, and very red, Desire C. Previously known as the “Golf” this does remind me of the HTC Wildfire now that I’ve got it in my hand. The Desire C has only a 600MHz CPU and 3.5″ 320×480 pixel screen, but the rather …
So, the Galaxy SIII. What’s your favourite colour? Well, don’t ask us. It’s not like we can just rustle up the Samsung Galaxy SIII in white and blue is it? I mean, next you’ll be wanting some up-close shots comparing both of them together. You’re kidding, right? These …
It’s time for a bit of close-up photo-time with the Xperia P. We were there for the launch so we figured you’d like a few more pictures, just because we can. As we mentioned earlier, the Xperia NXT phones have different screen sizes. The Xperia S has a …
Friends of the site CLOVE are running a great competition where you can win a whole host of goodies and all you need to do is share photos… it’s that simple!. Over on their official site there is a lot of information which we have copied below for …
