Honor Holly launch event (With Video)

Tonight in London saw Honor launch the next phone in its Honor lineup, The Honor Holly.

The Holly is a pretty nondescript device, with a 5" 720p screen, a quad core processor (of unnamed origin, though I'm pretty sure its a Snapdragon 400) 8mp BSI camera with an F2.0 aperture and its capable of 1080p video recording, it has a 2mp front facing camera and a 2000mAh battery, dual SIMs and an unannounced price.

That price is the interesting bit, the Honor Holly doesn't actually have a price, in a similar vein to how Massdrop works, the more people that pre-order and give honor a price, the lower it will go, which is incredibly interesting, we have never seen a phone be priced this way, and I salute Honor for trying, we'll see how it goes.

Honor is an interesting brand, they seem to be distancing themselves as far away as possible from Huawei, but the Honor Holly does seem like an interesting mid to low range device.

More details to follow.

Should People consider a mid-range phone for their next upgrade?

2013 has been a bit of an odd year,for Smartphones that is, Every year we are basically conditioned to believe that we want the biggest and best phones that are available at that time, but that's actually changing,This year we have seen OEM's create "mini" versions of their phones, and for once, They.Don't.Suck This, is the Galaxy S4 Mini, From Samsung, it doesn't have the most mind-blowing specs , its a dual-core Snapdragon 400 (Krait 300) , it's got an 8MP camera from the Galaxy S III, it's pretty thin and pretty light, it's got a 4.3" qHD (960x540) Super AMOLED screen, also the Design of the Galaxy S4 and some other stuff. And guess what, it's doesn't lag,and the Minor bits of lag that are there are Touchwiz based,which are being remedied as we speak, same as the Larger Galaxy S4, which ad software glitches which caused it to lag, they are being ironed out as we speak. And yes, the Screen might not be HD, but it kinda does...

Why I'm not a fan of the OnePlus 2

Photo credit from GSMArena To those that Follow me on twitter it's no surprise to you that I was very underwhelmed with the OnePlus 2, but it's hard to explain why in 140 Characters, so here I'm going to expand a bit more on the things I’m not a fan of and why. First up is the USB-C Port. Now as we already know, USB-C the Port isn’t the same as USB-C W/USB3.1, the Damn USB-C, it's there,but not quite there. latter is the all singing all dancing version of USB-C, nothing has this yet (the closest we have so far is the new MacBook and Chromebook Pixel, that use most of this, except at USB3 speeds, or what has retroactively been called, USB3.1 Gen1). The OnePlus 2 though, like the Nokia N1 before it, isn't doing any of this, it hasn't got support for up to 100w, it doesn’t transfer data at the blisteringly fast 10gbps (USB 3.1 Gen2) or 5gbps (USB3.0/3.1 Gen1), no the USB-C port on the OnePlus 2 is USB2 based, that’s right 480mbps, same as microUSB in ph...
