LG’s smartphone range has, to date, had some interesting models — but nothing that’s been truly captivating, leaving Samsung and Apple to have the really high-end battles. LG, it appears, is well aware of this, and plans to make up the difference in 4G LTE phones — but not this year.
Every year it’s the same rumour: “the new iPhone will have a 16:9 display”. It even circulated before the first iPhone came out. And it happens with the iPad too. This year isn’t different. But does it make sense? Would the next iPhone really have a 16:9 screen?
Nokia has been very aggressive — and necessarily so, given its dipping position in the global smartphone stakes — in promoting its Windows Phone 7 handsets. But an advertisement running for the Lumia 900 may have accidentally leaked upcoming Windows Phone 7 features.
You probably take for granted the fact that turning your phone on its side automatically puts the display into landscape mode. But do you really know how the tiny accelerometer inside your device can detect those changes in orientation? After watching this video you will.

A complete stranger nearly — very, very nearly — destroyed my phone the other day. That got me thinking. Plenty of phones die a rather unnatural death, and really, I’ve been lucky — but what’s the worst you’ve ever done to a phone?
HTC’s One X is an excellent phone, but it’s currently only available for Optus and Vodafone customers. What happens when you take an excellent phone and add 4G to it?
Samsung’s launching… something at the end of the month. It’s not saying what it’s launching — but the indications are pretty clear that it’s the Galaxy S III.
