We were expecting the Samsung Galaxy S II to cost THE EARTH when it arrives on the SIM-free retailers on May 1st, but the damage looks like it won’t actually be that bad.
Samsung has reduced the “cost price” it asks the shops to pay for the handset, resulting in retailers being able to sell it on to the likes of us for less. One such shop is Unlocked Mobiles…
…which will do you one for £497.98 plus £5.99 for delivery. Still a rather painful amount to authorise in one go, but nothing like the £600 we were expecting when the huge Android phone was announced back at MWC.
The Panasonic Eluga marks the company’s return to the European mobile phone scene years after several years of absence, and it’s come back to us with a moderately high-spec Android model that features a rather stylish, slim case.
The HTC One V is HTC’s third entry in its high-profile new HTC One range, offering a smaller 3.7″ display running on a single-core 1GHz processor. It is is very much the “affordable” option in HTC’s newest Android series, but…
The HTC One S is the piggy in the middle of HTC’s 2012 line-up, offering a 4.3″ AMOLED display inside a very slim and stylish aluminium chassis. The end result is a phone that’s very, very slim and stylish.
HTC’s new quad-core monster, the 4.7″ flagship for 2012 that introduces the Tegra 3 processor to mobile phones, updates HTC’s range to Android 4.0 and brings us the supposedly streamlined version 4.0 of HTC’s Sense user interface.
Sony returns with an all-new mobile design for 2012, pairing a dual-core processor with a 720p display. It’s a lovely phone, but is it enough to end our Samsung and HTC obsession?
LG’s updated Prada phone comes with an absolutely crazy black & white theme, but is it just for fashionable suit wearers who want to make themselves look a bit more interesting?
