Back in the middle of 2013, LG unveiled the LG Optimus Zone which was an entry-level handset. The design of the phone featured some pretty sharp angles but thanks to a recent leak by the ever-reliable @evleaks, we now know that LG has a new handset in the works called the LG Optimus Zone 2, which presumably is the follow up to last year’s handset.

Based on the leaked image, assuming it’s real, features a more curved design which seems to be in line with LG’s design language as of late. It also sports a Verizon logo on the top left corner of the device, indicating that the phone will most likely arrive on Verizon’s network in the near future. (more…)

Apple’s first ever iPhone was launched in 2007 about seven years ago, leading to the creation of one of the most iconic smartphones to date, despite what its critics and detractors have to say about it. We also know that the iPhone has managed to outsell its previous generation with every new release, but how many iPhones has Apple sold to date?

Well according to reports, Apple has managed to sell 472 million iPhones since its launch in 2007 to the end of 2013, and with estimates of over 38 million units sold in the current quarter, many have started to celebrate Apple’s crossing of the 500 million mark in terms of iPhones sold. (more…)

Earlier this year, Nokia announced the Lumia Icon, a handset that is an exclusive for Verizon (although some say that an international variant in the form of the Lumia 930 could be on its way). For those unfamiliar, the Lumia Icon is essentially a smaller version of the Lumia 1520 with a more manageable 5-inch display versus the Lumia 1520’s 6-inch.

Essentially this has the power of the Lumia 1520 packed into a smaller body for those who prefer something not of the phablet variety. However to make the device smaller, Nokia did have to make a couple of concessions, one of which was putting a smaller 2,420mAh battery inside versus the Lumia 1520’s 3,400mAh. (more…)

OnePlus, a nascent company founded by ex-Oppo executives, still has a lot to prove before it can take a seat at the adult table. The company’s first smartphone, OnePlus One, is due to be launched on April 23rd. It has confirmed a few details about the specifications, but so far hasn’t given us a glimpse of the design or the materials its expected to use. Not wanting HTC to hog the spotlight today, the folks at OnePlus decided to take a swing at the All New HTC One.

Developers often have no patience of locked bootloaders, bloatware and carrier delays of latest software updates. Which is why certain manufacturers launch variants of their popular mobile devices that are geared towards the folks who make the apps and games that we love. Earlier today the All New HTC One was unveiled. It is already available for purchase through major U.S. carriers. Don’t worry, HTC didn’t forget about the developers.
