The Galaxy S20 Ultra is the most phone I’ve ever held in my hand. I’m not just referring to the screen size – a hair under 7 inches – or even the weight, which tips the scales at 222g. It’s the whole package, which oozes luxury and excess in a way no Galaxy phone has ever before. At a quick glance, the S20 Ultra doesn’t seem all that different from the S20 or S20+: you get the same basic features in increasingly larger displays (6.2-, 6.7-and 6.9 inches, respectively, as you step up the line). But as soon as you pick up the Ultra, you can feel the difference. It feels more substantial than any other I’ve ever used, including Apple’s iPhone 11 Pro Max. It’s hefty without being too…

There are plenty of new features in the Galaxy S20 to get excited about – the new cameras, the larger screens, the 5G modem – but the best has to be the high-refresh display. Samsung fans have watched from the sidelines as Google, OnePlus, and Razer all released phones with 90- or 120Hz screens. Even worse, those phones have actually used Samsung displays. But the S20 levels the playing field, bringing a 120Hz high-refresh display to Galaxyland for buttery smooth scrolling and crisp animations. Samsung isn’t limiting the high refresh rate to the uber-expensive S20 Ultra either. Samsung offers its 120Hz display – which oddly doesn’t have a cute marketing name like the Pixel 4’s Smooth Display or the OnePlus 7T’s Liquid Display – on every version of the S20.…

Many expected a successor to the Xperia 1 to manifest at IFA 2019 but the compact Xperia 5 made its debut instead. Now, despite the cancellation of MWC, Sony pressed ahead with the launch of its new 2020 flagship, in the Xperia 1 II. Release date and cost Sony launched the Xperia 1 II (along with the Xperia 10 II and Xperia Pro) via live stream on 24 February, around the time it would have held its launch event at Mobile World Congress (were this year’s trade show was snuffed out by the increased risk of Coronavirus). As for when the new flagship will hit stores, Sony cites a late Spring arrival. For comparison, last year’s Xperia 1 didn’t go on sale until the end of June. With pricing still…

Price: $999 (£tbc) You don’t actually need to see the LG V60 ThinQ 5G with Dual Screen to know what it is. Based on our experiences during a recent briefing and hands-on opportunity in New York, the V60 clearly looks like LG’s V50, V40, G8 and G7. It has a few gimmicks and some unnecessary carrier compromises. And it has a headphone jack. In short, it’s an LG phone. It’s not entirely clear whether it will be the only flagship of 2020 from LG, but if there is a G9 in the works, my guess is that the only difference will be screen size. For better or worse, LG has a formula and it’s sticking to it. I’m not really sure what, if anything, the ThinQ surname even means at…

If you’ve got your eye on a new Galaxy S20, chances are the Ultra is just too much phone for you. It’s huge, powerful and, most importantly, at £1,199 crazy-expensive, so most people are going to be choosing between the classics: S20 and S20+. But just because they don’t have Ultra branding, doesn’t mean you’re getting a subpar handset. Design No matter which S20 you buy, you’re getting a gorgeous phone, with extremely slim bezels, a stunning screen, and a striking camera array. Samsung isn’t straying too far from its tried-and-tested formula, but the S20 definitely has a character all its own. However, while anyone will be able to pick the S20 out of a line-up of S10’s, there isn’t too much of a size difference between the new phone…

As soon as I picked up the iPhone in 2007, I knew that the future of the smartphone had arrived. I feel the same way about the Galaxy Z Flip. When I flipped it open for the first time, the Galaxy Z Flip was as much of a revelation as the first time I slid my finger to unlock the original iPhone. The other folding phones I’ve used from Huawei, Royale and Samsung have all felt a little off, almost like they were movie props meant to look like futuristic phones. From the plastic screens to the uncertain form factors, folding phones might be wow-worthy, but they haven’t felt like the kind of product that could change the way we think about smartphones. That’s not the case with the Galaxy…

Sony can’t properly name its phones for love nor money. So, let us just take the Xperia 1 II – that’s the ‘Xperia 1 Mark 2’ – for what it hopefully will be, and that’s an excellent smartphone. On paper, the follow up to 2019’s good but flawed Xperia 1 takes what was wrong with that phone and improves it. It has a bigger battery, upgraded cameras, wireless charging, and even puts the headphone jack back on a Sony flagship for the first time since 2017’s Xperia XZ1. The fact the Xperia 1 lacked wireless charging when the Xperia XZ2 and XZ3 before it had, it does well to sum up Sony’s blunderbuss approach to hardware decision-making. But as I read up on the Xperia 1 II, all the warm…

I have a confession to make: my favourite phone right now is the Samsung Galaxy S9. Yes, the one from 2018. I’m testing the 6.9in Galaxy S20 Ultra and running Android 11 on the 6.3in Pixel 3 XL, but when I want to kick back with my phone of choice, these days I’m reaching for the Galaxy S9 and its 5.8in screen. In short: I’m sick of big phones. In just the past few months, we’ve had the 6.67in OnePlus 7T Pro, 6.8in Galaxy Note 10+, 6.8in LG V60, and 6.9in Galaxy S20 Ultra, all of which are extremely cumbersome. It’s reached the point where the 6.5in iPhone 11 Pro Max is on the small side (which is probably why Apple is rumoured to bump the size of its biggest…

Samsung’s new series of S20 phones are available for pre-order, and if you plan on buying one, you already know all about the giant screens, eye-popping cameras, and gorgeous design. But with pre orders available now from fave.co/3anbpT1, there are a few features deep down on the list that you might not have noticed. 1. The S20 doesn’t support mmWave 5G yet Samsung is touting all of its S20 phones as 5G capable, and that’s true, with one exception. The smallest model only supports the sub-6GHz spectrum while the S20+ and S20 Ultra can switch between sub-6GHz and mmWave. 2. You can lock RAM to a game or app All the S20 models have at least 12GB of RAM, which is more then most people will ever actually…

Samsung wasted little time in getting to the good stuff at its first Unpacked event of 2020. Right off the bat, it took the wraps off the Galaxy Z Flip, its second folding phone and the first one that’s actually kind of affordable. Seriously, it’s cheaper than the Galaxy Fold (which has a starting price of £1,900). As far as the specs go, the Z Flip isn’t a midrange device like the Motorola Razr. Along with the Flip’s 6.7in 1080p display, the Flip has a very speedy processor. I’m not sure exactly which chip it is, but the specs say it’s a 7nm, 64-bit octa-core processor with a maximum speed of 2.95GHz, which is actually faster than the S20. It also has 256GB of storage and 8GB of RAM. Its…

Sony’s most recent live stream may have primarily been about its new Xperia 1 II flagship, but the limelight was shared with another device – the Xperia Pro. For all intents and purposes, it’s the same phone, but better, so why won’t Sony sell you one? A phone that justifies the ‘Pro’ name Sony tidied its naming convention up with last year’s Xperia 1, then quickly confused things again by launching the mid-range Xperia 10 and Xperia 10 Plus, and later the high-end Xperia 5. Now we have the Xperia 1 II (pronounced ‘mark 2’), as well as the Xperia 10 II. Confused? Sony seems to be. With this mix of numbers and numerals, the new Xperia Pro stands as a refreshing outlier. It’s arguably more deserving of the ‘Pro’…

There are so many VPN services out there that it can often be overwhelming. While that’s a good thing for competition, features and pricing, it means choosing a VPN can be an absolute nightmare. That goes double for browsing the Google Play Store where it can be difficult to see which services are legitimate and which ones are outright scams. That’s why we’re here to help. Over the past few years we’ve tested a ton of VPN services, looked at their privacy policies, and checked out their extra features. To determine the top five VPN apps for Android we judged these apps on criteria such as whether the app was easy to manage, pricing and the number of simultaneous devices allowed per account.

At this year’s CES, OnePlus demoed an ‘invisible camera’, which uses electrochromic glass to create various tints in colour to make the camera under the rear glass seem like it’s not there until it’s called into action. It takes its inspiration from the McClaren 720S Spider supercar, and it generated lots of media coverage and undoubtedly long lines at OnePlus’s booth. Granted it’s a concept of a prototype that’s probably not shipping for many months (if at all), but it shows how most smartphone makers are thinking. Instead of working to make our phones take better pictures, companies are filling out phones with camera gimmicks that are flashy but offer no real benefit. Not to single out OnePlus: Samsung has put a 108Mp camera in the Galaxy S20, which is…
