Samsung Galaxy Z

Samsung’s new Samsung Galaxy Z phone has a trick up its sleeve. It’s the first phone from Samsung to operate Samsung’s new Tizen system. Tizen is based on Linux (as is Android), but you can consider Tizen as being a “fork” of Linux as Samsung go their own way with the system. A plus is that, since it’s based on Linux, developers won’t have a problem developing for Tizen, and users will still be able to access Google Play for apps.

Nokia Lumia 635

So here, we have the Nokia Lumia 635, and a decent phone it is too! There is one caveat though, and that is that the only difference between the 635 and the Lumia 630 is that the 635 has 4G LTE and the 630 has 3G, so it really depends on how much speed is important to you. The phone is reasonably light too at 134g.

Samsung Galaxy K Zoom

This phone is a bit like a solution looking for a problem. I’m trying to work out what market this phone is aiming for, and it’s not easy to identify. Essentially, it’s a camera with a phone attached. This means that if you are ready to drop your prosumer camera and have it conjoined toyour phone, or you are a phone junkie that just has to have a biggest camera on the market, this is the one for you. There are other camera phones that also do a good (if not better) job of all the above (the Galaxy S4 Zoom and the Nokia Lumia 1020) with less hardware. Well, you make up your own mind, but I don’t think mum would want one, Dad might and the kids want other bell and whistles.

Now for your edification and delight, LG has introduced the all-new G3 phone. It sure is the business. The screen itself is a 5.5” display with a stunning 538ppi, which translates into 4 x HD. The difference between this phone screen and an HD phone is very easy to see. Colours are sharper, they stand out far better and the contrast is superb.
