Google recently released the Pixel XL 2, their newest attempt at a top of the range Premium Smartphone. After all the rumours and speculation before release, is the new Pixel 2 XL an improvement on the Pixel XL? What are the differences between the two?

One of the best new features that Google have embraced is the ‘Always on Display’, also recently adopted by Samsung and other manufacturers. This is a welcome addition to the Pixel 2 XL and even features a mode that shows you what song is currently playing in your vicinity. Another interesting feature is the ‘Active Edge’, which enables you to launch Google Assistant by simply squeezing the edges of the device.

With the Apple Watch 3 hitting the market recently, interest in the Smartwatch sector is at an all time high. We have a look into the Apple Watch range, and see why having one of these devices can supplement your everyday life.

At its most basic, a Watch is designed to simply display the time to the wearer. The Apple Watch complies with this trend, with the screen flicking into life with a twist of the wrist. But as this is a Smartwatch it's understandable to expect more, which is where the Apple Watch really comes into its own.

After a rocky few years for Samsung's Note range, the newest iteration arrives: The Note 8. Sporting the same 'Infinity Display' as the S8 and S8+, the Note 8 is a sleek and practical addition to the line-up. 

The most striking thing about the Note 8 (also the S8 and S8+ for that matter) is the screen. Samsung state that the Note 4 boasts a 83.2% screen to body ratio, which when coupled with its AMOLED 521 pixels per inch LCD, gives a vibrant and vivid display with no bezels.

If the reports are to be believed then smartwatches could be about to play a bigger role in the world. According to global market intelligence firm IDC over a 100 million units were sold last year, which is a 25% annual increase and a big reason why many of the big fashion brands are now joining the trend.

The demand for wearable tech is high with many wanting to get outdoors without the need to take their handsets and risk losing or damaging their phones. Durable, water-resistant and innovative smartwatches have finally become important.  

Here we look at the best three smart wrist wear on the market.

Keeping secrets is virtually impossible these days. Samsung recently found this out after details of their much anticipated Galaxy S8 found its way onto the web.

However, the leak may have worked in their favour as many of the new features reported have caused quite a much needed buzz for the Korean giant.

There has been a delay in the unveiling of the new flagship handsets to the 29th March with worldwide release on the 21st April.

Mobile phones are a huge part of our lives now but it’s surprising at some of the things we don’t know about them. Just take a look at 30 interesting facts below.

1. IBM launched the first smart phone back on the 16th August 1994. It had a touchscreen, stylus and came with preinstalled functions like an address book, calculator, calendar and note pad

2. The Highest ever mobile phone bill was $201,000 and was charged to Celina Aarons. Celina’s brothers were deaf and mute and so communicated via text, one brother sent over 2000 texts and downloaded videos at a cost of over $2000 per vid whilst on a trip to Canada.

Yes, you heard right. Our favourite Italian plumber makes his move to iPhone in a brand new adventure this Christmas, and from what we can tell it looks to be a pretty decent game.

Designed to be a side scrolling platform game in which Mario constantly runs, you have to make him jump over obstacles and avoid enemies and traps to reach the final flag pole. With easy controls it looks to be a simple but fun game using just one hand to tap and make Mario jump. Depending on how you tap the screen, Mario will jump in different ways so it will be completely down to you to keep him safe and gather up all those coins as he sprints through each level.

It’s been a mixed year for Samsung, with the huge success of their Galaxy S7 and huge failure with the Note 7 overheating and blowing up. However this hasn’t deterred their customers and many eagerly look forward to the new flagship phone, the S8.

There are very few facts about the S8 yet but many rumours have been floating about. Boasting of improvements to the design, the processor, the screen and even the Selfie cam…finally…..

We all want our phones to stand out and have cool accessories, but some of the things on sale are just weird. Take a look at 12 of the strangest ideas we have found for you.

Solo cam

• Another Selfie stick adaption, this one allows you to broadcast or record interviews and vlogs and even comes with a reporter style microphone.

Cell Mate

• A metal headband that stretches over your head to hold your phone for you. Surely Bluetooth is a better idea?

There are many hidden features on iPhones that can save a lot of time and effort and you’ll be amazed that you never knew. We take a look at some of the top hidden features here.

Alphanumeric passcodes

• There is an option for a more secure passcode under the passcode options screen, using numbers with letters, making it even harder for anyone to guess.

We have all heard of the leading smartphones such as the Samsung Galaxy S7 edge and iPhone 7, but with these costing a huge amount brand new, it can be a bit too expensive for most. So instead of buying these new handsets on 24 month contracts why not check out some cheaper alternatives?

Budget phones often get overlooked, with people assuming because they are cheap that they are poor quality. Although it’s true that budget phones are not top of the range with everything, they still retain decent features depending on what you need from them, and for such a cheap price you can’t really complain as it is good value for money.

So let’s take a look at some of the best budget phones around...
