The smart phone market is ever expanding and many of them allow you to watch movies, take photos, play music, check your email and a whole host of other things. But with so many models out there how do you choose? Well that's why i'm here. In today's post I'll show you my favorite smartphones currently on the market.


iPhone 4S


No guide to smartphone's would be complete without including the daddy of them all - the iPhone 4S. Featuring an iOS operating system as well as a dualcore processor for high speed internet access. This beauty also gives you access to Apple's immense app library.The 4S also comes with Siri which you could describe as a personal assistant - a system that follows your voice commands. Free up memory by storing your photos, music and videos on the Apple cloud giving you access wherever you are.



Samsung Galaxy S II


There aren't many phones out there that can deliver 21Mbps download speeds so the Samsung Galaxy s II is definitely a must for those who like to download on the go. Like the iPhone it uses a dualcore processor. This handset is also light and slim weighing only 116 grammes. The S II has a 4.3 inch screen and has a Super AMOLED display so images are crisp and clear. A great all rounder.



HTC Sensation XL


A brilliant handset for all you music lovers out there. It features Beats Audio and comes with a customised beats headset. but it's not just a music phone. The screen has a large screen at 4.7 inches and is super slim at under 1cm. Also has the ability to record video in HD much like the iPhone.



Nokia Lumia 800


The best Windows phone out so far. Features a user interface much like the forthcoming Windows 8. Has an 8MP camera and comes with 16GB of memory. Gone is Symbian to be replaced by Mango. Check out my full review here.



So there you have it, something for everyone. Some really cutting edge, high quality smartphones featured here. A word of warning if your planning on buying the iPhone 4S - it is rumoured that the iPhone 5 will be released before the summer so you might like to wait for its release instead of buying the 4S as the 5 looks to be amazing!

Say hello to the first handset to be released in a collaboration between Nokia and Microsoft - the Nokia Lumia 800. We first heard about this collaboration back in February and it really doesn't disappoint. So let us take a closer look at the newest Windows phone on the block

The Nokia Lumia is a stylish and sleek smartphone with a user interface that is easy to use and attractive and performs along the lines of Windows 8. It utilises ClearBack display whose super bright display makes it perfect for people on the move. This handset is perfect for keeping in touch with friends and family, listening to music, watching movies and surfing the web.

It is also a smartphone made for social media addicts.It comes pre-loaded with Twitter, Facebook and Linked In and you can pin contacts to the start screen to save time and enable ease of use. Perfect for conversing with your closest friends.

GPS is available out of the box as well as Nokia Maps so it is made for the male who'll never ask for directions. At least now he doesn't need to. Internet Explorer 9 ensures surfing the net is a breeze. You'll also have access to XBox Live, Nokia Mix and Mix Radio. So videos, games and music are easy to access.

It also has an extensive app library. It isn't quite as extensive as the Android App Library but they're getting there. This phone is also perfect for the businessperson on the go as it comes with Microsoft Office.

So what are the specs for this little beauty:


  • Seamless design


    Curved 3.7" AMOLED ClearBlack glass touchscreen display seamlessly integrated into a smooth one-piece body


  • People Hub


    Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, email, Chat, SMS


  • Internet


    Bing, Internet Explorer 9, HTML5, Wi-Fi


  • Camera


    8 MP Auto Focus with Carl Zeiss Optics, 2x LED Flash and HD Video


 

Overall

The Nokia and Windows collaboration have managed to produce an extremely beautiful and good quality handset. The WP UI experience is fully integrated with your apps. The camera produces great quality sharp photos and is very user friendly even allowing you to snap pics while the phone is locked. The video produces high quality HD video footage. This phone does pretty much everything you'd expect from a smartphone and more and it isn't overly expensive either. It isn't the lightest handset out there but its smooth curves make it a joy to hold. I think Nokia & Microsoft can be very proud of their first offering and if your after a smartphone that allows you to easily surf the net, take & store photos, play games, listen to music, watch videos & work on the go then this phone will be perfect for you.
