China's ZTE, unlike most other smartphone providers, approached biometric identification differently. Not by taking fingerprints, but by "scanning" the eyes, as he installed the EyeVerify scanner in his new Grand S3 smartphone. This does not "scan" the iris, but the blood vessels, as they are without a pair and do not change with age and stress. For one of the most secure ways of identification, we use the front camera.

Monohm has brought some fresh pizzazz to the smartphone- and wristwatch-saturated WMC 2015 mobile conference with the Runcible smartphone as a pocket watch. You probably still remember pocket watches, which used to be pulled out of our pockets almost as often as we do with smartphones today. Well, Runcibl's mission is to discourage us from excessive phone use, and in the battle with all the wearable technology like smartwatches and bracelets that hope to do the same, it faces an uphill battle to survive.
The Lenovo VIBE Shot has definitively blurred the line between a digital compact camera and a smartphone, as it gives you the best of both worlds. When it's a camera, it doesn't disappoint with a six-element lens camera that captures scenes at a resolution of 16 million pixels, but when it's a smartphone, it doesn't disappoint with a Qualcomm Snapdragon processor and a high-resolution display.
The Sony Xperia E4G smartphone can boast of a low price (around 130 euros), a powerful battery (2300 mAh, which translated into hours means approx. 48 hours), fast 4G LTE connectivity, ease of use and a resistant plastic case. All this makes it very competitive in the concentrated market, especially since there is also a powerful processor that satisfies even users with a higher bar and an efficient "migration service", the Xperia Transfer application.
This is no drill folks, the Samsung Galaxy S6 is finally here! The real, official one, not some hints and guesses. Information and images come directly from Samsung. He presented it to the public in Barcelona on the sidelines of the just-opened Mobile World Congress (MWC), which until recently was a rather sleepy event, but today there is a real frenzy at and around it, as all the important players on the mobile device market are here, as well as those attacking from behind place all their cards on the table.
At the upcoming MWC 2015, LG will present a new line of mid-range smartphones consisting of the Magna, Spirit, Leon and Joy. Nevertheless, these phones will not lag far behind the "five-star" models, as they can easily be confused with their more expensive brothers due to both their functions and their appearance.
Motorola Moto E launched the second generation of its cheapest smartphone, which can be had for around 110 euros. If you move them around 30 more, you will even get LTE connectivity instead of 3G support. Definitely a smartphone that won't hit your wallet hard, but also won't disappoint, because it has something to show for it. It also has a "hard skin", as the screen is covered with the third generation of Gorilla Glass.
The first photos and details of the HTC One M9 smartphone were supposed to be revealed at the Mobile World Congress (MWC), which starts in Barcelona on March 2, 2015, but online enthusiasts Mobile Geeks have overtaken it. The HTC One M9 will occupy the very top of HTC's range of smartphones, where it will succeed the One M8 model. Although they have similar "facial" features (the One M9 is a little more watered down, as the case is slightly thicker) and the same "taste" for the case, the successor boasts more powerful hardware.
Aston Martin is an automotive icon. But why stop at cars, when you can also offer the market a smartphone. This one has apparently definitively succeeded the high-end wheels with the signature of the luxury car brand. Let's just remember Porsche's (BlackBerry) and Lamborghini's. Aston Martin found an ally for the production of the concept with a transparent screen in Mobiad, which is known for prestigious smartphones, so it is almost a natural partnership.
With the smartphone, or to be more precise, the "phablet" M1 Note, the Chinese Meizu adopts the classic Eastern strategy of "no-name" brands. To offer a product that can compete with famous names, but is available at a significantly lower price. Nothing else is the aforementioned cross between a smartphone and a tablet, with which Meizu is targeting young people, who clearly want the most for as little as possible. And this is what the modern "brick" M1 Note for 170 euros gives them.
Microsoft continues to push the boundaries with its Lumia smartphones, but not so much in terms of user experience and technology itself, but rather the price, which continues to slide down. Which is clearly encouraging news, as the Lumia, with the working name of RM-1099, should be available for less than 60 euros. Obviously, you won't get a Fittipaldi for this, but it will satisfy all those users who still use smartphones "on a whim" or who are not too demanding.
The Aquaris E4.5, a smartphone from BQ, is the first smartphone with the Ubuntu operating system, which was looking for its "host" for more than two years, and Canonical, the company behind Ubuntu, finally found it in the said model of the Spanish telecommunications the colossus. The phone brings to the market, what we call in political jargon, an alternative, because it is neither "left" (Android) nor "right" (iOS), but a breath of fresh air with many advantages, such as flexibility and functionality.
