The Sony Xperia Z2, a really great smartphone ( and, if I’m not mistaken, their latest flagship ) has recently gone on Pre-Order i early April, having a few of those said orders shipped around April 15. The wide handset launch was delayed, though, due to a few stock shortages probably caused by a few sudden bottlenecks. It was later ... Read More »
As is tradition for Google to do each month, they AGAIN released a chart determining the percentage of usage for each Android version. The most significant development, it seems, for April was that KitKat actually gained quite a bit – some 3.2 point – thus bringing its overall market share to 8.5%.

As you might have heard, Xiaomi, a fairly large Chinese phone company has had quite a lot of success with its MI-3 brand of phones. They’ve made so many sales, actually, that they even decided recently to expand to more countries and increase ( which, frankly is quite a big deal considering the company is pretty young ).

The Sony Xperia E1 – one of the newest low-budget phones from Sony. Off-the-bat, I think I should mention that this device is also available with a Dual-SIM – that version being called the Sony Xperia E1 Dual – but from a technical point of view, they have the same features. For that exact reason, I deem it enough to tell you ... Read More »
As you may already know ( if not, here’s a little reminder ), the retailing mega-giant known as Amazon thought it wise to try and get into the smartphone field, based on the wide success of their tablet ( which was intended to be taken as an e-book reader, but it was way more powerful than that and people sort of ...

Good news for some major-countries and a few countries in Asia – Xiaomi, one of the more interesting phone-developers from last year has recently announced that they’ll be selling to 10 more countries this year, which frankly is really good considering how well their devices did.
