£160 inc VAT • nokia.com/uk You’d be forgiven for wondering who HMD Global is, but at MWC 2017 the company made a huge splash by launching four new phones with the Nokia brand: the wonderfully nostalgic 3310 (page 28) as well as three midrange Android phones with excellent price tags. The three mid-range phones are the first Android Nokia phones ever, and we spent some time with them on the show floor to find out whether they’re worth buying. Price So far, all we know about the Nokia 5’s release date is that it’s expected to launch in Q2, which could mean there are a few months to wait yet. And when it does arrive, the Nokia 5 will be priced at €189, which should work out at around £160.…

£TBC • sony.co.uk MWC means new flagship phones and Sony is no exception. You might still be waiting for the Xperia Z6 but you might want to let that go and get to know the Xperia XZ Premium. It might be less than six months since Sony launched the original XZ but we have a new one already. Whether you want to call it the second-generation model or not is up to you, but the XZ Premium is the firm’s new flagship smartphone for 2017. The firm also announced the XZs in Barcelona though this smaller and more mid-range model won’t be coming to Europe. A key thing we don’t know at the moment is the Xperia XZ Premium price but we can tell you that it will arrive in…

£169 inc VAT • motorola.co.uk Premium for All’ is Lenovo’s new motto for its G5 phones, the Moto G5 and Moto G5 Plus, which aim to offer the build quality and feel of a flagship device at decidedly non-flagship prices. That’s especially true of the G5, which offers a metal body, rapid charging, and fingerprint sensor controls – all at a sub-£200 price. Price The Moto G5’s best feature is arguably its price: the handset will retail in the UK for just £169 for the 2GB RAM model, and £179 for a version with 3GB. That puts it firmly at the low end of the mid-range smartphone market, and right in line with the usual pricing for the Moto G range. The G5 will release in the UK some time…

£TBC (€329) • huawei.com/uk Huawei took to the stage at MWC to announce its second generation smartwatch, the Watch 2. However, while the original model was for the fashion conscious this has more of a focus on exercise and fitness. Price While Huawei announced the €329 (or €379 if you opt for 4G) Huawei Watch 2 during its event at MWC 2017, we’re still awaiting confirmation on a specific UK launch. While it has been confirmed that the Watch 2 will be headed to the UK, Huawei doesn’t have the greatest track record when it comes to release dates – when it announced the Mate S in September 2015 with an October 2015 release date, the phone didn’t appear until many months later. It’s a similar story with a UK…

£TBC (€1,499) • sony.co.uk While MWC is typically all about phone, tablets and smartwatches, Sony had something completely different which caught a lot of attention. The Xperia Touch is a short-throw projector that can turn any flat surface into a touchscreen. Price Like Sony’s other new products at MWC, including the Xperia XZ Premium, the Xperia Touch release date is set for ‘Spring’ so it shouldn’t be too long before you can get hold of one. Whether you’ll want to at a price of €1,499 is another matter, though the device doesn’t have any real competition. Design The look of the Xperia Touch might fool you into thinking it’s an external hard drive – at least when the device is not in use – but even if it was just…

£192 inc VAT • umidigi.com UMI is undergoing a rebranding exercise, and this Z is the last phone it will release before its name officially changes to UMIDIGI, short for UMI Digital. Somewhat confusingly an almost identical version of the UMI Z comes with a dual-camera at the rear and is known as the UMIDIGI Z Pro. Price The UMI Z is available in grey or champagne gold for just £192. It works with all three UK 4G bands, and runs stock Android 6.0 Marshmallow with an OTA upgrade promised to Nougat in the coming months, so there are no usability issues here. As we’ll see below, it is a real bargain at this price, offering excellent value for money. We would advise caution when buying from China, however, primarily…

£699 inc VAT • lg.com/uk As Mobile World Congress (MWC) got underway in Barcelona, Spain, there were thousands of companies vying for your attention. One that tries to do so every year is LG, and this year it has gone big – literally – with its latest high-end handset, the LG G6. LG has lagged behind the popularity of fellow South Korean rival Samsung in recent years, and with no Galaxy S8 in Barcelona, LG is desperate to make sure the G6 takes all the headlines, thought it faces stiff competition from Sony and even Nokia this year. The design has been overhauled again following the leather-clad G4 and the modular G5 to a debatably more uniform metal and glass affair. LG’s Friends didn’t last long, did they? But the…

£TBC (€139) • nokia.com/uk Nokia is back, and with it comes new Android phones that we expect could fly off the shelves when they’re launched later this year. HMD Global, a Finnish start-up, is using the Nokia brand to bring the three new phones to the market, as well as a reboot of the famous and much-loved Nokia 3310. Here, we take a closer look at the Nokia 3, the cheapest in the new smartphone range. Price The Nokia 3 is the cheapest phone available in the new Nokia Android range, with a price of €139 which we expect will work out at around £120. That means we can place the Nokia 3 firmly in the budget smartphone category, so we’re looking forward to putting it through its paces when…

£TBC (€649) • huawei.com/uk Huawei took to the stage at MWC 2017 to show off its’ 2017 flagship, the P10. It has a focus on portrait photography and design, but does it perform as well as Huawei claims? Price Despite announcing a €649 price tag during the event, we’re not sure about a specific UK price or release date on the upcoming P10 just yet. Design Huawei has a reputation for offering high-end design and materials in its smartphones, and the Huawei P10 is no different. Featuring a refined design reminiscent of the Huawei P9, there are subtle changes to the design of the smartphone that make it stand out from the crowd, following an ‘organic minimalism’ design philosophy. Everything’s a little bit ‘neater’ on the P10, and the curved…

£259 • motorola.co.uk Lenovo’s Motorola Mobility used MWC 2017 to show off its new Moto G5 (page 52) and Moto G5 Plus, which are brilliantly priced smartphones that offer some of the features of its flagship but without the cost. We spent some time with both devices on the show floor to give you a closer look at the new smartphones and offer our initial thoughts about them. Price The Moto G5 Plus is set to arrive in ‘mid-spring’ but there’s no further announcement just yet. We’d expect that to mean an April release date, but we’ll keep you updated on that here. We do know that it will be available from Carphone Warehouse, though, and that it will start at £259, which sits it neatly in the mid-range category…

£TBC ($249) • lg.com/uk The LG Watch Style is one of the first watches to boast Google’s new Android Wear 2.0, which brings with it a new design, better navigation, and Google Assistant, along with a host of other tweaks. Price So far LG hasn’t yet confirmed that the Watch Style or its sibling the Watch Sport are coming to the UK, but we are expecting them to announce a UK release eventually. You’d expect that they’d want to manage a release before too many other watches get Wear 2.0 though, so we don’t think there will be too long to wait, especially since the Style is already out in the US. As for pricing, it costs $249 in the US right now, so we’d expect a UK price in…

Snapchat is increasingly facing competition from the likes of Instagram and its new Stories feature, and with the company in need of something big and new to keep customers engaged talk has turned to the idea of a Snapchat smartphone. But is Snapchat really going to launch a phone? Fact or fiction? It has to be said that a Snapchat phone would likely be one of the best selfie phones you could buy. But Snapchat is not a smartphone company; it makes mobile apps and has recently ventured into Snapchat Spectacles, which should be getting a wider release outside the US later this year with parent company Snap pledging to “significantly broaden the distribution of Spectacles”. However, there is some evidence to suggest Snapchat has something bigger planned, with several…

£TBC (€229) • nokia.com/uk Nokia is back, and with it comes four new phones that look set to disrupt the market. At MWC 2017, the brand, which is now part of Finnish company HMD global, unveiled three new Nokia Android smartphones and a reboot of its classic Nokia 3310 (page 28) complete with the iconic Snake game and its familiar ringtone. The Nokia 6 isn’t completely brand new to MWC 2017. It was launched exclusively in China in January, and according to Nokia it sold out in 23 seconds with more than one million preregistrations. Thanks to that huge success, Nokia has decided to bring the Android smartphone to the rest of the world in the second quarter of the year, positioned at the top of its new range alongside…

£TBC (€50) • nokia.com/uk If you’re going to trade on nostalgia for a brand, you might as well trade on nostalgia hard. That’s clearly the thinking at Nokia, which has managed to overshadow its own range of new Android smartphones with the announcement of a phone that doesn’t have a touchscreen, won’t let you install any apps, and doesn’t do much of anything except make calls and play Snake: the Nokia 3310. That’s right, Nokia is ready to party like it’s 2000, with a sort-of re-release of one of its most iconic feature phones. Strictly speaking, this is more of a combination of a few of Nokia’s old devices – along with a handful of modern conveniences – so it should feel immediately familiar to anyone who’s ever held a…

£499 inc VAT • uk.blackberry.com KEYone is going to be the best BlackBerry phone on the market when it comes out in April. It just should have existed about three years ago instead of the Passport. Or, the Passport should have run Android. But after we took the KEYone for a spin at MWC in Barcelona, maybe we can forgive BlackBerry for its tardiness. The KEYone was just about worth the wait, and is a strong Android device regardless of the brand. Price The KEYone will be available in the UK ‘during April’ according to BlackBerry and we will report the official sale date as soon as possible. It will retail for £499 in the UK. Design It’s no secret anymore that BlackBerry phones are now designed and manufactured by…

£259 inc VAT • samsung.com/uk The tablet market may have petered out but Samsung hasn’t give up on it, even if it seems the likes of Sony, HTC and Google have. At MWC 2017 it exclusively launched tablets, one of which is an iPad Pro rival. While we wait for the Galaxy S8 launch, Samsung has some new tablets to keep us entertained. We finally have the Tab S3 alongside two new Galaxy Books running Windows 10 – these seem to be a follow up to the Tab Pro S but with a different naming system. Price There’s not too long to wait until the Galaxy Tab S3 is available with pre-orders starting on 17 March ahead of its 31 March release date. At the time of writing Samsung hadn’t…

£349 inc VAT • lg.com/uk Rewind two years and you couldn’t move for wearables at Mobile World Congress. This year is a bit different, with only the Huawei Watch 2 launched at the show. LG’s Watch Sport joined it on the show floor following its announcement earlier this year. Price There is still no official UK pricing or release date information for the LG Watch Sport, though Mobile Fun has it available for pre-order in the UK for £349 at tinyurl.com/zrf46mj. Design There’s no doubt that the LG Watch Sport is a premium thing. The heft is evident as soon as you pick it up, housed as the main unit is in a metal chassis. The attractive circular screen is a 1.38in P-OLED that brings Android Wear 2.0 to life…
