Verizon is apparently looking to add the upcoming LG G Pro 2 Lite to its portfolio with that device getting caught at the FCC. As you would imagine, this is a lower-end version of the G Pro 2, boasting a slightly smaller 5.7-inch screen with 720p HD resolution, 1.2GHz quad-core Qualcomm Snapdragon 400 chip (MSM8926),…
T-Mobile will soon launch a new low-cost Windows Phone, Nokia Rise. According to EVleaks, this will the carrier’s version of the upcoming Lumia 530, which is an entry-level Windows Phone 8.1 device that supersedes earlier Lumia 520 and Lumia 525 models. While we’re not sure what this unit is all about, we’re guessing it will…

Huawei announced two new phones, both of which could further help the Chinese firm cement its position as one of the world’s biggest handset makers. First comes the Honor 3X Pro, which is made to compete with the likes of Xiaomi Redmi Note. This phablet comes with a 5.5-inch full HD screen, 13-megapixel rear and…

The process has seemingly started in Germany, though we would guess that other parts of the world will be quick to follow. Major new things included in this release are the Kids Mode, which turns the smartphone into…
Another day, another Galaxy S5 Active rumor. This time we’re going into specifics. First, we’ve learned that just like its predecessor, the Galaxy S5 Active will also have physical rather than capacitive buttons. Simply put – this is a must-have for a water-resistant device since capacitive keys may not work perfectly under water. Second, the…
Acquiring Motorola was just one of the moves Lenovo had in store for this year. The Chinese firm is also working on its very first Windows Phone device, which according to German website Mobile Geeks will most certainly launch later this year.

Smartisan is everything but a household name in the West. Even in its home turf of China it isn’t as known as major handset makers.
