Considering how little choice there is when looking for a smartphone with physical keypad, the release of the BlackBerry KEY2 should be cheered for at least bringing a little more variety to the table. The only other notable phone with a keypad on the market is its predecessor, the BlackBerry KEYone.
How does the two phones compare? Is it a big enough leap? Does the older device look like a better deal now?
Samsung has just launched its flagship smartphone in the shape of the Samsung Galaxy S II (2) (GT I9100). With MWC 2011 finally over, we can now all have fresh perspective on the best devices slated to be released into the hands of smartphone lovers worldwide in 2011. First off, the Samsung Galaxy S II is seriously impressive. The big question, of course, is just how amazing is it, and, for that, we’re going to need to compare it to arguably one of the best non-Android phones around – the Apple iPhone 4.

It wasn’t long ago that Motorola brought us its latest flagship, the Moto X Style (Pure Edition), alongside the mid-range Moto X Play. Both handsets offered solid specs and pricing, but neither were necessarily bleeding edge when it came to hardware. With today’s announcement of the Droid Turbo 2, the company now has a new Motorola handset that offers the very best specs you’ll find on the market.
As you’d expect from a Droid, this new handset is a Verizon exclusive, though it’s possible the phone could eventually make it to other markets under a different name, as we’ve seen with some of the past Droids.

If you thought the T-Mobile ONE plan drama wouldn’t end so easily, you were right. It seems like every few days we have another affair unfold, either from Sprint administering its own perversion of the term “unlimited” to the EFF protesting that Net Neutrality is being compromised. That’s not good press for the UnCarrier, so today it’s tweaking the new plan in an effort to win our hearts back, or at least simmer the uproar.

TCL has launched three budget Alcatel-branded phones at CES 2021. The firm also revealed a sub-$80 Android tablet. Prior to launching its own branded devices in global markets, TCL was known for offering Alcatel-branded devices. Now, the Chinese company is launching three cheap new Alcatel phones.
