The IAAF has launched an Android app, designed to let athletics fans stay up to date with the world of track and field sports. It’s best used in conjunction with live events, like the 2013 World Championships that are currently underway, giving users live results as they happen, medal tables, news, photos and much more to leaf through.

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.
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?
