Breaking news, information, and analysis on the latest mobile phones and mobile technology
Let me start by saying this – the Jabra Storm is by far the best Bluetooth headset I’ve ever used. Period. I know there are (arguably) better models, but I haven’t been able to play with one of those. The Storm offers a great sound quality, it’s easy to carry around (you can forget you…
These days we get to see a number of different smart watches. There are those that look and act like small computers, running a kind of specialized operating system, like Apple Watch, Samsung’s Tizen watches, Pebble and an array of Android Wear devices. Products made by Martian are different. First and foremost they look like…
Chinese (handset makers) are coming and they seem ready to take on the Korean giants. Just last week, I got a chance to play with the Mlais M4 Note, a phablet-sized device that offers an amazing bang for the buck. That’s $159 for those who count. At first glance, the M4 Note looks like a…
If Chinese handset makers like Huawei and ZTE don’t cut it — due to security and “all that jazz” — perhaps the best contender to take over BlackBerry is Amazon. There are a few reasons why this could be a good move for the online retail giant: 1. Amazon wants its own eco-system, not the…
After phones and tablets, we look at hot accessories and wearables that were announced at Mobile World Congress 2015. As you’re about to see, there are quite a few of these, and not all of them are available immediately. Quite the contrary, for most products listed here, you’ll have to wait for at least another…

I do understand that Windows Phone was written from scratch, but still… this sounds so…
Last time we talked about new smartphones that were announced during Mobile World Congress; now we’re talking about tablets, namely those running Android OS. Surprisingly, or not, there were not that many of them. Perhaps it’s the shrinking margins to blame for this, or perhaps the big boys focused their efforts on launching new phones.…
It’s quite a show here in Barcelona. Many companies announced new devices, including HTC and Samsung which — rather than hosting their own events — returned to MWC to unveil their flagship phones. In this post we want to sum it all up for you; to show you all of the phones that were announced…
BlackBerry is returning to the slider phone design later this year! It’s like the Torch on steroids, powered by BlackBerry OS 10, which as you know – enables running of Android apps. During a press conference at Mobile World Congress, the Canadian company shared the image above on its Twitter account, without going into much…
Samsung Galaxy S6 and HTC One M9 are two of the most interesting devices announced at Mobile World Congress. While you can’t miss with any of these two — both are top notch — we know that some folks “can’t live with a Samsung phone” or “just hate HTC.” Some man you just can’t reach.…
