Last night I was chatting to someone about Gionee. We saw them at Mobile World Congress a few years back. They do some very nice phones, but you won’t often see them on the streets of the UK. They have a decent presence in places like India, Thailand, …

During Mobile World Congress we paid a visit to the KAZAM stand. The UK company had grown quite substantially, and had a rather grand display of handsets plus a much larger presence at the exhibition. We attended just a few days after reviewing their super-slim (and rather nice) …

Quad-core phone? Oh, you’re so last year. How about one of these new Kazam phones, with 8 cores? Better yeah? There’s not long to wait either, these will be available across Europe from Q2, although we don’t currently have details on any networks. Meet the new Tornado range, …
