Until recently, Nothing had only launched two smartphones, and never has there been so much fuss over Nothing in the mobile industry. The Nothing Phone (1) and Nothing Phone (2) were both hyped more than any other new mobile phone in living memory, and the interest from our readers was palpable. But in the shops, …
Taiwanese Asus really wants to be a mobile phone manufacturer. And you have to admire their persistence. Despite the fact that they have not yet managed to achieve great commercial success, they have made 10 model generations and a large number of variants of their Zenfone mobiles since 2014. Many of them have excelled on …
The Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra isn’t the phone that most people buy, but we’ve chosen to take a closer look at it as it’s the absolute flagship of the series. Like last – and the previous – year’s Ultra model, the Galaxy S24 Ultra is still a Samsung Galaxy Note in disguise. Ergo, it comes …
While Asus’ excellent Zenfone mobiles will forever remain a secret to most people, the ROG models fare somewhat better. Here, Asus is on home turf, speaking to an audience that already knows them as a manufacturer of serious gaming gear. The Asus ROG Phone 8 was presented at CES in Las Vegas at the beginning …
The idea is a no-brainer: a pocket and wallet-friendly compact version of the top model – but with just as much power in all key areas. The Google Pixel 8 we’re testing here is built on the same platform as the Google Pixel 8 Pro, which we recently recognised as the high-end smartphone of the …
At the beginning of the year, Chinese company Xiaomi came out with a new top mobile phone with a Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 processor and a camera developed in collaboration with Leica. The Xiaomi 13 Pro had a lot to offer, but the price was high and compared to other smartphones in the same price …
Fans of this type of foldable mobile phone, which is basically a hybrid between a smartphone and a tablet, have so far had no trouble deciding which model to buy. The selection has been sparse, with the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold dominating. It was renewed again this summer and is now available in its fifth …
After years of looking for Google mobiles that were only launched in other countries, it was finally our turn last year. That’s when the Google Pixel 7 Pro, Pixel 7 and Pixel 7a were released and performed very well in our tests. We also got the Pixel Buds Pro earbuds, but not the Pixel Watch. …
After this year’s big Apple event, the launch of the new iPhone models in September, we had mixed feelings. It felt like the base models got many of last year’s Pro features, such as the bright display and Dynamic Island, as well as the 48MP camera. Whereas the Pro models merely got a new processor …
“Don’t mess with a working system,” as the saying goes, and Sony’s mobile strategy with the Sony Xperia 1 V is as usual. Sony is targeting the geeks and semi-professionals who are happy to take a turn with the manual camera settings, care about high-resolution sound and could easily stream for hours on Twitch while …
Although Asus is a large electronics manufacturer, the company is one of the smallest in the mobile phone market. So it’s only fitting that their smartphones are also quite small – but with great electronics. The Asus Zenfone 10 is a relatively compact mobile phone with a diagonal measurement of 5.9 inches. That’s between half …
It’s only been about six months since the Google Pixel 6a was launched in Scandinavia, so why is the sequel coming so soon? Well, it’s because the cheaper a-model is set to arrive six months after the flagship Pixel 7, which saw the light of day in October. In other words, it was the 6a …
Earlier this year, we reviewed the Xiaomi 12 Pro, which we called Xiaomi’s first true flagship. It featured Qualcomm’s then-fastest mobile processor, a bright, high-resolution screen and a sleek, almost Scandinavian design. The price was accordingly, for the Xiaomi 12 Pro was also the most expensive smartphone so far from the Chinese manufacturer. However, it …
HMD Global, now the company behind Nokia mobile phones, is betting big on environmental friendliness. Which is both sympathetic and necessary, because the 1.5 billion or so mobile phones manufactured worldwide each year use an inordinate amount of resources. And what good is a new mobile if there’s no life left on Earth? Thus, the …
We’ve called Motorola the ‘King of the Middle Class’ so many times, it’s getting embarrassing. It’s time to find a new way to phrase it. Because of course we’re counting on Chinese-owned Motorola to keep launching affordable, high-quality smartphones. Like the so-called Edge series, of which this year alone we’ve tested two phones – the …
