Apple iPhone 7 Review

In a familiar looking shell, the iPhone 7 breaks convention by not breaking form. Tradition dictates a major design refresh after two years from Apple, but what we got this year was a similar design for the third year in a row.

A Day With The Samsung Gear IconX

My trusty Jaybird Bluebuds X died on me during a jog in a light drizzle last week. To be fair, it wasn't the first time I've used it in similar, wetter conditions. It served its purpose more than well enough, for long enough.

So it's time for a new pair of buds.

Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge: Edge-traordinary

While there were plenty of new flagship devices announced over the past few weeks, Samsung is the first to get the device into the hands of consumers with the Galaxy S7 and S7 Edge. Not only is it the first major flagship release for 2016, the Galaxy S7 also has some big shoes to fill considering how good the Galaxy S6, and the Galaxy Note 5 were. So let’s take a better look at the Galaxy S7 Edge, and see if it is a worthy successor.

BlackBerry Priv Review: New Beginnings

The BlackBerry Priv is probably the most interesting Android device released this year. Not only does it bring with it a slider form factor, it is also BlackBerry’s first smartphone that is “Powered by Android”. So let's talk a bit more about it.

Nexus 5X vs Moto X Style vs Nexus 6P

I started out wanting to do a comparison between the Nexus 5X against the Moto X Style. But while the Moto X Style’s price tag might seem a tad closer to the Nexus 5X rather than the Nexus 6P, the Moto X Style’s built quality and size is actually better compared to the Nexus 6P’s more premium feel. So in the end, I decided on a three-way instead.

Motorola Moto X Style (Pure Edition) - BLTN

The 3rd generation Moto X, or Style, or Pure Edition, didn’t really pique my interest when it was announced. It didn’t have any new innovative features like past Moto X series of devices, and from what I can tell, it is meant to be a bang for the buck phone with good, but not great specifications. Which is part of the reason why it took so long for me to get hold of the phone to try out.

Sony Xperia Z5 Review: Same Same, But Different

Yup, you read it right. Yet another Sony Z-series flagship phone review. In case you have forgotten, here's a quick reminder. While the Xperia Z3+ was announced in late May (if you don't count the Z4), the phone only arrived in Singapore early July. So after just little over 3 months, I now have the Xperia Z5 in my hands. And nope, I have no idea what the folks over at Sony were smoking.

Apple iPhone 6S Review: Here we go again

This is the best iPhone to date. The end. 

This is how one does a new iPhone review isn't it? But really, do you need a review to tell you that Apple has the ability to make iteratively better products at this point in time?

Moto E LTE (2nd Generation)

I recently got my hands on the 2nd generation Motorola Moto E, and I have to say, this is an impressive little device. In fact, I would probably go as far as calling it one of the most impressive device I have used this year.

Quick Thoughts on the HTC One M9

About a week ago, the HTC One M9 was finally released in Singapore. I got my hands on one, and would like to share some of my personal thoughts on the device.

The Flagship Smartphones: A Year Later

It has been a great year for the mobile industry. Pretty much all the flagship devices in the market has been refreshed for the year, and most of them are great devices that you cannot go wrong with no matter which one you pick. But that does not mean that the previous generation of flagship devices are now obsolete.
