Samsung Galaxy Note 8.0 Review

Ever since Apple’s release of the first iPad, Samsung has been churning out tablets to battle them on so many fronts it’s starting to look like overkill. With so many larger Galaxy Tab and Galaxy Note varieties out there, it makes sense that Samsung would try to compete against Apple’s latest offering too, the iPad mini. The Samsung Galaxy Note 8.0 caters to a crowd that wants in... 

Nokia Lumia 720 Review

The Lumia 720 is probably the most sensible WP8 package the Finns have designed so far. For all its progress over the past year, Windows Phone is still largely considered as a distant third in the smartphone race, which is dominated by iOS and Android.

Here goes the full list of talents, which the HTC First has to offer. Key features Quad-band GSM and quad-band...

Statistically, this means that every step of their product line, from 5** all the way to 9**, has been backed up by a fresh WP8-rocking alternative. OK, that’s nothing out of the ordinary and actually well on time. The Lumia 520 was announced at this year’s MWC, along with the Lumia... 

Sony Xperia E Review

The Sony Xperia E and Xperia E dualare nearly identical, with the number of SIM slots the only notable hardware difference. It boils down to what makes more sense to you as a user – dual-SIM support or the more recent Android 4.1.1 Jelly Bean. When talking entry-level smartphones, a single-SIM package usually has to try harder to make itself noticed. Dual-SIM versions are usually regarded as...
