Mobile Phone Reviews
Virgin Mobile Plans Review
If you like your phone plans to be a little cheaper, and served up with a bit of sassy attitude, then you can't go past Virgin Mobile.
Telstra Tough Max 2 Review
The Telstra Tough Max 2 lives up to its name; accidental drops are no match for this phone. Thankfully, reliable day-to-day performance and a bright display mean you don't sacrifice too much if you're after a durable device.
OPPO R11s Review
OPPO's midyear refresh of the R11 is fresher than it has any right to be. The R11s adds newfangled features like facial recognition and an "all screen" display while maintaining its predecessor's performance, battery life, and value.
LG V30+ Review
The LG V30+ is a no frills flagship with enough unique little features to make it worth considering if you're after a high-end smartphone.
OPPO A73 Review
The OPPO A73 succeeds at bringing a taste of flagship features to budget price-points, but makes a few compromises in doing so. If you can live with an average camera and an occasionally restrictive operating system, the A73 is a great phone for the money.
Apple iPhone X Review
The iPhone X is a bleeding edge piece of tech that lays the foundation for the next decade of smartphones. If you can stomach the cost - and don’t mind relearning how to use your phone - it's easily the best iPhone you can buy, but it's not for everyone.
Huawei Mate 10 Review
The Mate 10 is easily the best flagship smartphone you can buy for under $1,000, and has no problem going toe-to-toe with far pricier handsets in terms of camera, performance, design, and battery life. You miss out on water-resistance and there's a couple of software quirks to get your head around, but these small issues don't compromise the excellent overall package Huawei has in the Mate 10.
Google Pixel 2 XL Review
The Pixel 2 XL is one of the best Android phones you can buy, but it's not quite a homerun for Google. The amazing camera and performance are offset by potentially problematic screen issues and a design that pales in comparison to the competition. These aren't deal breakers, but they mean the Pixel 2 XL isn't quite the "go to" Android flagship Google wants it to be.
Huawei Nova 2i Review
The Nova 2i is a smartphone that pushes the envelope forward on what you should expect from an "affordable" device. The screen wouldn't look out of place on a phone twice its price, and neither would the build quality. Camera quality can be inconsistent, but for the money, the Nova 2i is a top handset.
Motorola Moto G5S Plus Review
The Moto G5S Plus is one of the best budget smartphones around right now, and is an admirable successor to the G5 Plus. The screen is a little bigger, the camera is a little better, and it's still great value. If you're after a bang for buck smartphone, the Moto G5S Plus deserves your utmost consideration.
Nokia 3310 3G Review
The Nokia 3310 3G is a very capable feature phone, but little else; unless you're explicitly after a "dumbphone", it's hard to recommend. Despite the overwhelming allure of nostalgia, the new 3310 is a reminder that somethings are better left in the past.
