Android handsets are a lot cheaper than iPhones? Shocking! Feb 19th 2014, 15:50, by Thomas Thorn While it might seem obvious that an Android phone is cheaper than Apple's iPhone range, the average price of a phone running Google's OS is now half the price of that from the Cupertino brand. According to statistics site Statista (where you can see the price differences rising over the years) that difference currently sits at $374 (£224, AU$414), with iPhones selling at an average of $650 (£390, AU$720) and Android's selling with a mean value of $276 (£165, AU$305). That means in 2013 the average Android handset was only around 40% the cost of an iPhone. So what do these numbers actually mean? Global issue In truth, the numbers are more indicative of a worldwide trend rather than that of the western world. While Android flagships like the HTC One or Galaxy S4 do generally come in cheaper than their Apple counterparts, the price issue is much wider. Android handsets have dominated the budget market for quite some time thanks in no small part to the open source nature of Android. No cost to license the OS has led to a proliferation of super-cheap device, and even using the 'full fat' Android OS means lower-cost handsets like the Huawei Ascend G510 or the Samsung Galaxy Fame still bringing a relatively premium experience. This has led to Android becoming the OS of choice in emerging markets such as India and Brazil, areas where the 16GB iPhone 5S currently retails at a high 53,500 Rupees ($860, £515, AU$950) and 2,799 Real ($1170, £700, AU$1295) rather than the $649/£549/AU$869 in the US, UK or Australia. It has also meant that the average global Android handset price has dropped from $441 ($265, AU$490) in the past 3 years to the $276 we see today. It doesn't mean that we can expect the 'All new HTC One' or the Samsung Galaxy S5 to come out half the price of the iPhone 6 though. But will we get a cheaper Galaxy S5? Dolby: mobile gameplay and graphics have really outpaced sound Feb 19th 2014, 15:10, by Kate Solomon Sound quality on mobile devices is letting mobile gamers down, according to Dolby's director of gaming. Spencer Hooks describes sound quality on mobile phones and tablets as "typically subpar" and bemoans game-makers for working only in mono "or at best stereo." "When we look at the mobile gaming market, we can see that gameplay and graphics have really outpaced sound," he told Droid Report in an interview, going on to argue that sound can make a device seem much bigger than its screensize. Surround sound phones "Our vision is that games on mobile move from mono to full 5.1 surround sound and that they fully leverage the powerful audio processing that is resident on devices," he said, hinting at more Dolby-infused smartphones in the near future. The company is working on integrating surround sound into more devices, and showing mobile game developers how to use audio tech on handsets to their advantage. Echoing sentiments heard around the tech-sphere, he added, "The power of mobile devices is growing at such a fast a rate that it's only a matter of time until they catch up to game consoles – even with the massive power of the new generation of consoles." Watch your backs, Xbox One and PS4. Is the games console dead? Naaaah, says Patrick Goss Has the LG G2 Mini been revealed before MWC 2014? Feb 19th 2014, 13:45, by Thomas Thorn Rumours surrounding the LG G2 Mini have been circulating for a while and now it seems the Korean firm has jumped the MWC 2014 gun and gone and announced it - although that's not what LG says. TechRadar spoke to a LG spokesperson who said "we have not released any information on the so called LG G2 Mini." According to Dutch site GSMInfo the information it's posted comes direct from LG - although we're taking this with a pinch of salt for the time being. The alleged specs list show LG G2 Mini may follow its bigger brother the LG G2 with a 4.7-inch qHD 540 x 960 display; we're not really looking at a 'mini' handset here then, measuring 0.7 inches larger than the iPhone 5S and the same size as the HTC One. Worries immediately creep in over the qHD resolution (don't get confused with QHD 2K resolution, that is completely different) as it would be noticeably low res, on par with the Samsung Galaxy S4 Mini but stretched even further and without the Super AMOLED tech behind it. Falling behind already? This means a only 234ppi compared to the 256ppi of the S4 Mini and far less than the 341ppi of the HTC One Mini. The same specs sheet shows that the LG G2 Mini should also come with a 1.2GHz quad-core Snapdragon 400 CPU backed by 1GB RAM that will keep a skinned Android 4.4 KitKat running smoothly. The skin is set to contain LG's Guest Mode as well as the fantastic Knock-On feature. This is supposed to come wrapped in a 130 x 66 x 10 mm frame so again we're not looking at a 'mini' handset rather a device that could be rather chunky. Elsewhere we are potentially going to see an 8MP rear sensor and 1.3MP front snapper, 8GB of internal storage with microSD support and 4G LTE support. We may also get a 2440mAh battery. It is also expected to launch in the Netherlands in April so we would anticipate a similar launch time elsewhere. The LG G2 Mini will have some serious competition on its hands from the well established HTC One Mini, Galaxy S4 Mini and Sony Xperia Z1 Compact, let alone the rumoured Galaxy S5 Mini, so it'll be interesting to see how it fares. Nokia's Treasure Tags will stop you leaving the house without your keys Feb 19th 2014, 12:37, by Kate Solomon Nokia's quite into treasure at the moment - first it teases us with a treasure map, now it's unveiled the Lumia-friendly Treasure Tag. Treasure Tags are NFC and Bluetooth-enabled gizmos that you attach to fiddly valuables like your keys or wallet. If you try to leave the house without them, your phone gives off a loud honk to remind you to go back and pick them up. That's assuming you haven't also forgotten your phone, of course. Fatal flaw The Treasure Tags work with Lumia phones rocking the Lumia Black update, with apps for iOS and Android in the works too. The Tags will come in blue, yellow, white and black, and will set you back $29.90 (€24.90, around £20) each. They're also proof that sometimes, just sometimes, rumours do come true. It's not quite the booty we were expecting from Nokia's bizzarro pre-MWC treasure map teaser. We reckon there's more to come at MWC 2014. We're more interested in Nokia X - Android on a Nokia phone? Whatever next Galaxy S5 to launch with 'only' a Full HD display? Feb 19th 2014, 11:05, by Gareth Beavis Bored of S5 rumours? Well, here's another: Samsung could be struggling to make enough high-res screens Last week we'd have bet heavily on a few inalienable truths about Samsung's next flagship phone: the Galaxy S5 will have a larger screen, it'll come in two flavours, and the headline model will have a QHD display. But that suddenly looks a little less likely according to ET News, which claims that the Galaxy S5 will launch in two flavours, but the first to hit the shelves will be the Full HD S5 (in early April / late March, according to the latest information) followed by the QHD option later in the year. Separate sources have also confirmed this to TechRadar as well, which means we're inclined to believe the veracity. QHD chicken or Full HD egg? The question is whether it's the display itself that's tough to make, or Samsung being able to increase the graphical processing power to a sufficient level to run the pixels – either way, the QHD panels have not even begun production, according to the report, while Full HD versions (which use a new type of pixel arrangement to improve the screen over the Galaxy S4) are already rolling out. There's also a question over the frame to be used with the S5 – will the QHD model come with a metal frame, or will that be used to give the Full HD flagship some lustre? Rumours suggest that it might be tricky for Samsung to produce metal bodies to the level required for a widespread handset like the S5, which would explain the need to have two options on sale. Either way it's less than a week until we see one of the (likely) big-hitting phones of 2014 – we just can't wait until the speculation stops. What's that? You LOVE speculation? Well, we can help there too with our Samsung Galaxy S5 release date, news and rumors page. Samsung Galaxy S5 to come dust and waterproof as standard Feb 19th 2014, 10:12, by Thomas Thorn There's less than a week to go until MWC 2014 and news about what we can expect from one of the hottest handsets of the year, the Samsung Galaxy S5, is streaming out as leaks spring up everywhere. According to sources in Korea, talking to ZDNet, the Galaxy S5 will be the first fully-fledged Samsung flagship to feature the ability rather than relying on an 'Active' variant as seen with the Galaxy S4. The unnamed source (make of that what you will) claims that "for the previously released Galaxy S4, water-proof and dust-proof capabilities were adapted to the handset's variants. But for the Galaxy S5, the standard model will have them immediately". We might be tempted to write this off but we've already heard news that Samsung may be moving to make all its flagships waterproof starting with the Note 4. It's certainly no major stretch to imagine that Samsung could have the tech in place for the S5 and would give buyers much greater confidence their prized possession isn't going to fall apart at the first sign of drizzle. Wet finger bandits? Because of this supposed waterproofing the source suggesting that users will be able to wash the Galaxy S5 under the tap as it can survive short periods whilst submerged. This would certainly put the Galaxy S5 on par with the Sony Xperia Z1, as well as the highly anticipated Xperia Z2. The reports also 'confirm' our suspicions that the Galaxy S5 will feature a fingerprint scanner built into the home button, requiring a side swipe rather than the finger press that is needed on the iPhone 5S. This feature is reported to be supplied by US fingerprint solution firm Validity, as well as using an ultraviolet coating rather than the sapphire used by Apple. We'll be here to bring you all you need to know about the Galaxy S5 from MWC so stay tuned. We'd hate to leave you hanging there, so why not check out what we know already about the Galaxy S5? Samsung Galaxy S5 to be released end of March 'at the earliest'? Feb 19th 2014, 09:59, by Hugh Langley While we know Samsung will be revealing the Galaxy S5 at MWC 2014, it might be some time before we actually get our hands on one. Samsung's flagship handsets tend to hit shelves around a month after being unveiled but the company is said to be taking its sweet time ordering certain components for the S5. According to one anonymous local parts supplier speaking to ZDNet Korea, Samsung's handset won't be arriving in our hands until the end of next month "at the earliest." Dilly dallying The source said that Samsung "is yet to place an order for parts" as it may still change some of the phone's features. But don't take this as gospel because "anonymous sources" will "say" anything at this point in the product cycle. With the S5 announcement taking place on February 24, we can't imagine Samsung will delay the phone's release for long after that. We expect we'll hear an official release date at the big event next week - and we'll be there to bring you the news as it happens. Why is Samsung trying to hide the Galaxy S5? Updated: T-Mobile's free iPhone offer didn't go over well with BlackBerry users or CEO Feb 18th 2014, 23:30, by Michael Rougeau Update: A T-Mobile spokesperson sent TechRadar the following statement clarifying its current relationship with BlackBerry: "Customers can purchase some of the latest BlackBerry devices from T-Mobile - including the Q10 and Z10 that we have carried since they launched. They can buy and direct ship devices from more than 3,000 T-Mobile retail stores and as an additional courtesy to our BlackBerry customers, we will begin offering free expedited shipping of BlackBerry devices by Friday. Customers can also bring unlocked BlackBerry devices to T-Mobile. We are happy to be a BlackBerry partner and apologize for any confusion." Original story follows… BlackBerry's most loyal customers responded angrily on social media recently when T-Mobile offered them free iPhone 5s, a move that BlackBerry CEO John Chen has called "inappropriate and ill-conceived." "As we were never told of their plans in advance, I can only guess that T-Mobile thought its 'great offer for BlackBerry customers' would be well received. T-Mobile could not have been more wrong," Chen wrote in an official blog post. He continued, "I can assure you that we are outraged too. What puzzles me more is that T-Mobile did not speak with us before or after they launched this clearly inappropriate and ill-conceived marketing promotion." He said BlackBerry customers' "passion motivates us every day as we navigate our turnaround," and hinted at an upcoming offer specifically for BlackBerry users on T-Mobile. Harsh words Chen's words are quite an admonishment, but apparently the offer was so offensive to BlackBerry diehards that T-Mobile CEO John Legere himself took to Twitter over the weekend to respond. "BlackBerry users, I'm hearing you loud and clear. Let me work with the team and get back with you," Legere tweeted. "We give our customers choices, but you don't have to give up your #loyalty," he said in a follow-up message. To their credits, both Legere and Chen have remained #allclass so far. "To T-Mobile, I would like to remind you that our long-standing partnership was once productive and profitable for both BlackBerry and T-Mobile," Chen said. "I hope we can find a way forward that allows us to serve our shared customers once again. Notwithstanding the current challenge, we remain very excited about BlackBerry's future." Mystery Jakarta phone turns out to be BlackBerry Z3. ZTE bringing another 6" Android beast, new Firefox phone to MWC Feb 18th 2014, 22:58, by Chris Smith The mist is beginning to lift in smartphone world, and we're starting to see an ever-clearing picture of which devices will and won't be on show at next week's MWC 2014 in Barcelona. With seemingly nailed-on launches from Nokia, Samsung and LG, it's now ZTE's turn to show its hand ahead of the biggest mobile event on the calendar. The Chinese manufacturer plans to showcase an 'ultra-slim' 6-inch Grand Memo II LTE handset, a successor to the original device launched at the event in 2013. Details are thin on the ground, but the company did say a new version of the MiFavor UI it users to paint over Android will sit within the device. Fox on deck Also on deck for an MWC launch is the company's latest handset running the open source Firefox OS from Mozilla. ZTE launched the Firefox-running Open last year. The Open C will make its bow running v1.3 of the software and is likely to be another budget effort from the company, aimed at emerging markets. We're likely to get the full skinny on both devices when MWC kicks off on February 24. Team TechRadar is raring to go and will be on the floor to have a nose at ZTE's offerings. The Galaxy S5 is highly likely to be on show at MWC. Here's what we want to see... Windows Phone may be MIA at MWC 2014 Feb 18th 2014, 22:13, by Chris Smith New handsets running Windows Phone will be conspicuous by their absence at next week's MWC 2014 expo in Barcelona, according to reports. Recode sources claim there will be zero new devices at the show packing Microsoft's slow-growing mobile operating system, despite MWC's status as the biggest show in the mobile calendar. That's no Windows Phone from Nokia, HTC, Samsung or anyone. Microsoft-owned Nokia is likely to make an appearance, but with its first Android phone, the Nokia X. Microsoft seems to be planning on saving itself for the big Windows Phone 8.1 reveal at its annual Build conference in the beginning of April. Holding court Despite the lack of new phones reportedly slated for the event, Microsoft will hold court with the media on Sunday night, prior to the commencement of MWC, where it plans to discuss some of its future plans in mobile. However, at an event notorious for setting the smartphone stage for the year, will the absence of a fresh crop of handsets running Windows Phone affect Microsoft's ability to make an impact in 2014? Time will tell. Microsoft does have one hit on its hands in the form of the Xbox One. Swype-like keyboard spotted for Windows Phone 8.1 Feb 18th 2014, 19:55, by klee Windows Phone 8.1 is shaping up to be a real shake up for the mobile OS as it's looking like we're in for changes all the way down to the keyboard. Unleash the Phones posted a new video demoing a new Swype-like keyboard complete with a new emoticon-filled text prediction engine. Similar to Android's Swype keyboard, users can slide their finger across the screen, linking letters together with a thin line while the handset predicts what they want to type. The video also shows how certain words will bring up suggested emoticons such as a smiley face for "happy." While the video might lack some validity, The Verge confirmed with sources in the know that Microsoft is indeed building a Swype-like keyboard directly into Windows Phone 8.1. It's a big change up for Microsoft to include an additional option over the old hunt and peck-style typing, but users can also disable the feature for traditional keyboard input. YouTube : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PEdVSMrs0Rw Big changes are coming Last week a developer on Reddit revealed an almost complete overhaul is on deck for Microsoft's mobile OS. The recent leak revealed the smartphone OS would begin a merger with Windows RT. Along with a more unified mobile OS, Windows Phone 8.1 will also supposedly reassign the back button to slip apps in the background rather than closing them outright. Meanwhile, WP8.1 users will have their hands on new apps for separate video and music, podcasts, a new layout for the default camera, and the recently rebranded OneDrive. The most visible shakeups however will be the additions of a new notification center to match Android KitKat and iOS 7, plus a Siri-like voice assistant called (and voiced by) Cortana. If it all turns out to be true Windows Phone 8.1 might be the most well-rounded mobile OS Microsoft has released. We'll be able to check out all the features when it likely shows up at Build 2014. Microsoft is giving all their OSes a makeover. Check out what's new on the desktop with Windows 8.1. Samsung promises better Galaxy S5 camera thanks to fancy new flash LED Feb 18th 2014, 19:17, by Michael Rougeau The Samsung Galaxy S5 will have quite the camera, if all the rumors turn out true. And the most recent tidbit isn't even a rumor - Samsung itself has confirmed that its next Galaxy flagship will feature a new "reflector-integrated flash LED" that will lend it some specific perks. The new Galaxy S5 LED flash will grant the phone's camera a wider field of view, even in small spaces, and better daylight and nighttime photos, Samsung has claimed. It will also reportedly ensure that every person in a photo, not just those in the center, is illuminated by the flash. Say cheese Samsung recently revealed a whole host of new handset camera LEDs, though the one with the reflector built in (called the 3432 1.8t (FH341A)) appears to provide the most benefit to devices. It reportedly features its own optics and diffusion features. The new LED flash will hit devices starting in March, after Samsung introduces the Galaxy S5 to the masses at MWC 2014. After enjoying a brief head start Samsung will then sell the new camera component on the open market in the second quarter of 2014. Galaxy S5 rumors The Galaxy S5 was previously said to have a 16-megapixel camera, based on rumors dating back to August 2013. Other Galaxy S5 rumors include a fingerprint sensor - like the iPhone 5S. But some reports show that the Galaxy S5's specs might actually be not all that impressive - though we won't know for sure until next week. Don't forget about the Samsung Galaxy S4 - here's TechRadar's review! Samsung Galaxy S5 price may come in lower than previous Galaxies Feb 18th 2014, 18:25, by JR Bookwalter You certainly can't fault Samsung for trying to throw everything but the kitchen sink into last year's flagship Galaxy S4, but this year's model may try to compete on price as well as specs. Bloomberg has the word that Samsung may be feeling pressure to lower pricing on its next flagship Android smartphone, which an unnamed source credits to "encouragement" from one or more wireless carriers. The current-generation Samsung Galaxy S4 can be found for as little as $0 to $5 monthly repayments on a 24-month plan and is also be found outright in Australia for about $700. After last year's so-called "life companion" fell short of expectations, it may take lower prices to satisfy customers, reviewers and market watches. It's just a matter of how low Samsung is willing to go. Specs unpacked The report also notes Samsung is planning a larger, sharper 5.2-inch display for the Galaxy S5, which is expected to be unveiled early next week at the company's "Unpacked 5" event during MWC 2014. According to the usual "person with direct knowledge of the matter," Samsung plans to improve the camera and battery life on the handset as well, which will reportedly be introduced alongside a refreshed Galaxy Gear smartwatch. Samsung has been widely rumored to introduce technology to unlock the Galaxy S5 using a fingerprint or even retinal scanner, particularly after sales of the Galaxy S4 reportedly suffered a noticeable setback in the wake of Apple's latest iPhone 5S last September. We'll all know soon enough, as Samsung has scheduled its main event for next Monday. Keep tabs on the latest iPhone 6 rumors to see what Apple might be up to!

The current-generation Samsung Galaxy S4 can be found for as little as $0 down plus 24 equal monthly payments of $26 on T-Mobile US ($624 in total) and is also available SIM-free in the UK for £629 and AU$899 in Australia. At one point, US carrier AT&T was selling the S4 for $250 (about £149, AU$277) on-contract, though that price eventually fell to $199.99 (about £119, AU$221) before the phone went on sale. The 32GB version of the phone remained at $250 on AT&T and Verizon.

Video: Everything we've heard about the Sony Xperia Z2 Feb 18th 2014, 17:16, by Owen Hughes Sony isn't one to stick around: less than six months after launching the Xperia Z1 - which itself was released just seven months after the Xperia Z made its debut - the Japanese tech giant is once again prepping a new flagship phone. The Xperia Z2 has seen its fair share of leaks recently, most notably the bare-all video uploaded to YouTube earlier this week. Said clip seems to confirms a couple of the rumours we'd be hearing about the device, but what else does Sony have in store? Well, for starters we reckon it's inbound for MWC 2014, and could be bringing a 5.2-inch 2K QHD screen in tow. For everything else we know – or at least, think we know – about the Sony Xperia Z2 so far, check out our roundup video below. YouTube : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q8Zd_j7Or8k Is this the HTC One 2 in all its glory? Feb 18th 2014, 17:09, by Hugh Langley Someone reckons they've got hold of the HTC One 2, and has posted the pictures online to (apparently) prove it. The leakster took to Google+ to show pictures of both the front and rear of a metallic, HTC One-looking handset. It's difficult to tell with the less-than-brilliant lighting, but it looks as if we could be looking at a gold variant of the device here. While on the front, the lack of physical buttons come as no surprise given what we're seen and heard so far. The images were also captioned with some specs – 4.7-inch 1080p display, 2GB RAM, dual camera on the rear and a 5MP snapper on the front - which also fall in line with previous leaks and rumours. Mini debate The person who posted this claims it's the HTC M8, and while Redditors have been speculating that the smaller speaker grills suggest it's actually the HTC M8 mini, we still think there's a good chance we're looking at the flagship. For one, we think the M8 will have smaller grills anyway, but it also seems far too early for us to be seeing the Mini - we'd expect HTC to leave a few months for the the M8 dust settle. The HTC One 2 is in trouble - it's going to have an awful name X marks the spot for Nokia's MWC 2014 reveal Feb 18th 2014, 17:05, by James Rogerson While most phone companies tend to keep their invites and teasers fairly straightforward, Nokia has decided to make us work by posting a treasure map and two similarly cryptic accompanying images to its Chinese Weibo page. First up there's an image of two monkeys, one in a tree, one on the ground. The fact that there's two of them could mean Nokia plans to reveal two phones, but that's pure guess work. The one in the tree also seems as though it could be a person in a monkey costume. Perhaps that's an obscure reference to Android? With a person that resembles a monkey rather than a robot that resembles a person. It's definitely a stretch but the next image also points towards Android. Cracking the clues The second image is of the same tree, without the monkeys, but with its DNA-like roots visible. We're not sure what relevance the DNA has, but a section of root is clearly highlighted in green, making an X shape, which could surely mean nothing other than the long rumoured Nokia X is on its way. Finally the third image features the aforementioned treasure map, which again features an X. While there's no tree on the last image, it does have a tag in Chinese which translates roughly to 'What is hidden under the tree? Lets find out together on February 24!'. So clearly the X is the focus, which means Nokia's Android phone is almost here as we expected. But is there anything else to be deciphered in these cryptic pictures? All will presumably be revealed on February 24 at MWC 2014. The Nokia X / Normandy might not be the only Android phone we see from Nokia this year. HTC crack squad will fix your phone screen for free Feb 18th 2014, 14:00, by Kate Solomon HTC is rolling out a new scheme to keep its customers happy: if you smash your phone screen in the first six months of ownership, the company will replace it for free. It's part of an initiative HTC is calling HTC Advantage, which it hinted at on Valentines Day and applies to the HTC One family - the HTC One, One mini and One max. This isn't a free pass for butter fingers, though - you'll only be able to have your screen replaced once and when you've had your phone for six months, the offer ends. It's the one As well as the smashing offer detailed above, HTC has also committed to "future software innovation" (which means keeping your One up to date with new Android versions as quickly as possible), as well as storage and back-up solutions that make better use of the cloud with up to 50GB of free storage on Google Drive. The new scheme is available only in the US for now, with no word on whether or not the company will expand it to other countries in the future. Worth investing in a One?
