Best 4G Phones Available To Buy Right Now

We look at the best 4G phones that money can buy.

Three of the UK's major mobile operators are now offering 4G in the UK, and there is already a wide range of 4G phones to choose from. In this article we've picked out some of the best 4G phones available to buy in the UK right now.

Everyone has a different budget, favourite operating system or a preferred smartphone design. Therefore, we've divided our best 4G phones into helpful categories making it even easier for our readers to find the 4G phone that best suits their demands.

Best Apple 4G Phone

Those who've owned an Apple device tend to exhibit incredible loyalty to Apple's iPhone range. That's in no small part due to Apple's iOS platform, which recently got a huge facelift with the release of iOS 7

Winner: Apple iPhone 5S

Apple's iPhone 5 is a 4G-ready smartphone, but it's only compatible with EE's 4G network. Therefore, it's an easy decision to declare Apple's iPhone 5S the best 4G phone for those looking for an Apple device.

Apple's iPhone 5S is the best iPhone of all time because it  comes pre-loaded with iOS 7 and features Apple's innovative iTouch Fingerprint Sensor. Enabling you to unlock your smartphone by touching the mobiles home-button, as well as authorising App Store payments using your fingerprint.

It's also the fastest ever iPhone with benchmarks showing that its 64 bit processor blows away the competition. You still get the same stunning Retina display, an improved iSight camera and it's available in 3 all-new colours (Gold, Silver and Space Grey) - with prices starting at £549.

Runner Up: Apple iPhone 5C

Those not interested in the iPhone 5S's fingerprint sensor might want to checkout Apple's iPhone 5C. It's slightly more affordable - with prices starting at £469 - and comes in a more varied and vibrant  colour range (White, Pink, Yellow, Blue and Green).

Best Android 4G Phone

Google Android is the most popular mobile operating system in the world, and many users have become accustomed to its design and functionality. There are a plethora of 4G-ready Android smartphones on the market, but which is a cut above the rest?

Winner: Sony Xperia Z1

The Sony Xperia Z1 improves on the superb Xperia Z , and in our eyes it's the best 4G Android phone in the world right now. Sony's smartphone has a stunning all-glass design, a gorgeous 5 inch display, an amazing 20.7 mega-pixel snapper and is one of the most powerful mobile phones in the world.

Oh.. did we forget to mention that it's waterproof and dust-proof. Our review of the smartphone concluded that 'We’d go so far as to say that the Xperia Z1 from Sony is a design and technology masterpiece – and a real must-have device'.

Sony's Xperia Z1 is available in Black, White or Purple and is priced at £599 (SIM-free).

Runner Up: HTC One

The HTC One has attracted widespread praise, including recently being declared 'Best Phone' and 'Best Gadget' at T3's Gadget Awards 2013. It's stunning combination of high-end specs and a premium metal unibody design make it one of the most desirable smartphones released this year. You can pickup the HTC One SIM-free from £499.Best 4G Windows Phone

Windows Phone is - arguably - the most accessible of all the mobile operating systems making it the perfect choice for those with little smartphone experience. There are a few 4G-ready smartphones on the market running Windows Phone 8, but which should you choose ?

Winner: Nokia Lumia 1020

The Nokia Lumia 1020 has attracted a lot of media attention due to its 'market leading' 41 mega-pixel Pureview Camera. The camera is unbelievably good, but the Lumia 1020 isn't a one trick pony - because it's also got a 4.5 inch 720p display and is a powerful smartphone in its own right.

Our Lumia 1020 review concluded that 'The Nokia’s Lumia 1020 is a greatly improved incarnation of the 808 Pureview, thanks to its slim chassis and impressive 41-megapixel snapper'. Nokia's smartphone comes pre-loaded with Windows Phone 8, is available in Yellow, White and Black and is priced at £599.99.

Runner Up: Nokia Lumia 925

Those who arn't looking for a cutting-edge camera, might want to consider Nokia's Lumia 925 - which is a slimmer, lighter and more powerful version of the Nokia Lumia 1020. Overall its specification is very similar to the Lumia 1020, and it still has an 8.7 mega-pixel camera - not too shabby at all. It's also £200 cheaper than it's Pureview brother with prices starting at £399.99.

Best Budget 4G Phone

The majority of 4G phones put a huge dent in your wallet, but not everyone has the resources - or willingness  - to invest in a costly flagship smartphone. Thankfully a number of more affordable cheaper 4G phones have now entered the market , but which is the best 4G phone for those on a budget?

Winner: Nokia Lumia 625

The Nokia Lumia 625 is available to buy SIM-free for just £239.99 and we think it's the best value 4G smartphone that money can buy. It's a Windows Phone 8 smartphone that has a 4.7 inch display, is powered by a 1.2 GHz dual-core processor and has a 5 mega-pixel camera.

Our review of the Lumia 625 concluded that 'The Nokia Lumia 625 offers good value for a 4G handset, and is the cheapest device on offer if you want to have the benefits of 4G. Its bright design and wealth of Nokia features make it appealing whatever your age.'

Runner Up: Sony Xperia SP

The Sony Xperia SP is a slightly older device than a lot of the mobiles featured in our guide, but that's meant that its price has been coming down all the time (it can now be picked up for £289). That makes it a bit more expensive than the Lumia 625, but you do get a much better display, a slightly better specification and a better looking smartphone.

Best Compact 4G Smartphone

Smartphones keep on getting bigger and bigger, with 5 inches quickly becoming the new standard size for flagship devices. However, there are still a number of us who prefer a more portable device, so what is the best compact 4G smartphone  available today?

Winner: HTC One Mini

The HTC One Mini is one of the most underrated smartphones released in 2013. It brings everything that made the HTC One so great into a more compact form. The only major sacrifice being that its 4.3 inch touch-screen runs at a 720p resolution, - the HTC One has a 4.65 inch 1080p display.

Our review of the HTC One Mini concluded that 'Wrapped in an attractive and stylish, svelte package, the HTC One Mini still fits in the best of the HTC One’s features'. The HTC One Mini comes in a choice of Black or Silver and is available (SIM-free) for £349.99.

Runner Up: Apple iPhone 5S

Apple's iPhone 5S classifies as a compact smartphone thanks to its 4 inch Retina display, and the latest iPhone is lighter and thinner than previous models. It's also a lot more powerful than the HTC's One Mini, but we felt that it's higher price (starting at £549) gave HTC's smartphone the edge in this category.

 

Best 4G Phablet

Phablets are a newer type of device sitting somewhere between a smartphone and tablet. There larger displays brings improved multimedia playback and web-browsing, while they remain more portable than fully-fledged tablets. So what is the best 4G phablet that's currently on the market?

Winner: Samsung Galaxy Note 3

When Samsung introduced the original Galaxy Note they changed the world of mobile forever - effectively introducing the world to the phablet. They then improved on the original design with the even larger Galaxy Note 2, and now they've  released the Galaxy Note 3.

Samsung's Galaxy Note 3 improves on Samsung's acclaimed S-Pen interface and has a mammoth 5.7 inch 1080p display. It's also one of the most powerful mobile devices in the world thanks to it's 2.3 GHz quad-core processor and 3GB of RAM. Improvement and tweaks have been made across the board making it - in our eyes at least - the best phablet in the world.

Our review of the Galaxy Note 3 concluded that ' its sharp 5.7in HD display, 13MP snapper and great performance all appeal – and the S-Pen and creativity options make it stand out from the crowd." Samsung's Galaxy Note 3 is available to SIM-free for £590.

Runner Up: Sony Xperia Z Ultra

Choosing between Samsung's Galaxy Note 3 and Sony's Xperia Z Ultra was probably the hardest choice we faced. On one hand we've got Samsung's stunning S-Pen phablet, and on the other we've got Sony's waterproof, slim-line, stunning Xperia Z Ultra.

Sony's Xperia Z Ultra has a staggering 6.4 inch 1080p display, a 2.2 GHz quad-core processor and an 8 mega-pixel camera. Those looking for a high-end 4G ready tablet won't be disappointed with Sony's stunning Xperia Z Ultra, which you can pick up for £549.

That's it folks - the Best 4G Phones Available To Buy Right Now from 3G.

Her 6 Rules For Onscreen Nudity

As she explains to Yahoo, Rossum has certain rules when it comes to doing onscreen nudity.
Rule #1: It Must Be Relevant

“We always have a closed set, and I only ever sign the waiver and do the scene if I feel like it’s really important to the story,” she said. “There have been times when I’ve said, ‘Nope, I don’t think that’s important to the story. I’m not gonna do it.’”

Rule #2: Prepare

“I always eat tuna fish and onions first,” she jokes.

Rule #3: Eyes Up Here, Mister

I’m kind of used to it by now, but a lot of times the boys that are coming in are worried about, like, are they supposed to just look me in the eyes? What should they do in between takes?

Rule #4: Ease Tension with Humor

“I just joke around and try to have some kind of fraternity humor with them so that they don’t feel like anything is more awkward than it should be. But, you know, it is awkward.”

Rule #5: No Props

“We don’t do fart cushions or anything like that, no,” she said. “But if I don’t make jokes it’s like crickets between takes. Both people just stare at the ceiling not talking.”

Rule #6: Unless It Is Necessary, Do Not Gaze Upon the Naked Flesh of Emmy Rossum

And the crew? “They all turn around and avert their eyes,” she says. “It’s very much awkward for everyone.”

Emmy Rossum shows her cute tittes by Gentle_Yente

Hollywood celebrities that have no problem with stripping down for the sake of art…or for large amounts of money!

There are plenty of Hollywood celebrities that have no problem with stripping down for the sake of art…or for large amounts of money!
But there quite a few celebrities we were shocked to find out had starred in nude scenes such as Sylvester Stallone, Reese Witherspoon, and “How I Met Your Mother” star Jason Segel.

Let’s take a peek at a few celebrities you might not have caught stripped down in television or film:


Anne Hathaway

Anne Hathaway, who admits she lacks the “sexy factor”, bared her breasts in the film “Love & Other Drugs”. She also went topless for the crime drama film “Havoc” in 2005.






Halle Berry



Oscar-winning actress stripped down in the film “Swordfish”, showing off her killer body.
She said of the topless scene, “It wasn’t a love scene. I could sit there by myself. No one was touching me. I was kind of just perched up there and it was all of three seconds and it was done. That, for me, felt like a better introduction than a steamy love scene.”






Christina Ricci




Christina Ricci had no problem with showing off her body in the movie “Black Snake Moan”.
Christina just stayed nude most of the time, saying, “I stayed the way I would be for the scene all the time – in order to get the crew really used to seeing me that way so that I was comfortable. Not only was I comfortable, but I would look at anybody’s face and not see them uncomfortable. Because if someone else is uncomfortable, it makes you feel like you’re doing something wrong.”






Amanda Seyfried



Amanda Seyfried not only went nude but got down with another woman (Julianne Moore) in the movie “Chloe”.






Reese Witherspoon

Reese Witherspoon, who is known for playing cutesy country-girl roles, went topless in the thriller “Twilight” in 1998. The actress later decided not to go nude after becoming a mother.
She said, “I’ve always been choosing roles knowing that I have a daughter and I have a responsibility to her and to the world to be representing women of strength.”





Noami Watts

Naomi Watts felt extremely uncomfortable filming “Mulholland Drive”, stating she “fell to pieces”.
Watts admits, “The masturbation scene was incredibly difficult, and was absolutely mortifying and humiliating;” she says of her shocking performance. It’s just a very difficult thing to do.”





Eva Mendes





Ryan Gosling’s girlfriend, Eva Mendes, had no issue with getting naked for her role in the film “Training Day” or “We Own the Night”.
Mendes said, “I’ve never had a problem with nudity. But I don’t put it out there without a reason. I’m not an exhibitionist. But, honestly, for my art I’ll do anything almost. I’ll go there.”





  Charlize Theron



Charlize Theron will strip down for roles, but the Oscar-winning star only goes naked if it is needed to play the character well.
The actress, who starred in “2 Days in the Valley” nude, said, “I don’t think about it as nudity. I think about it as, ‘Is this the right thing for the character? Is this the right choice?’”





  Sylvester Stallone


“Rocky” and “Rambo” star Sylvester Stallone went more than just nude! The action star starred in a porno called “The Italian Stallion”! Stallone was paid $200 for two days work.




Michelle Williams, Jennifer Podemski and Sarah Silverman

These ladies teamed up in the film “Take This Waltz” with a shocking nude shower scene that got quite “hairy”. Sorry, couldn’t resist!




Seth Rogen



Seth Rogen starred in the comedy “Zach and Miri Make a Porno” where he was nude. But, he also was butt-naked in “Knocked Up” with Katherine Heigl.
Seth said of his nude scenes, “I was fine with it. I was ready for anything. I have no shame about it. It’s fine. If it’s funny, yeah, I will probably do it. If I genuinely think it’s funny, there is a good chance I’ll do it”.





Maggie Gyllenhaal

Jake Gyllenhaal’s sister doesn’t mind taking it all off in her career. She starred in the dark comedy “Secretary” opposite James Spader in 2002.
The actress said, “”[Nudity] doesn’t freak me out that much. The thing that is a little strange for me about nudity is when it’s taken out of context… For instance, there’s one photograph of me that for some reason got out, it’s not naked but I’m like in a bathtub in ‘Secretary’, and you don’t see any of my body but I feel very exposed and I won’t sign that picture, whereas in the movie being totally naked I feel comfortable.”




Rosario Dawson

Rosario Dawson played the role of Roxanne in the Oliver Stone film “Alexander”. She starred alongside Colin Farrell and said stripping down wasn’t too hard with her hot star.
She jokingly said, “It’s too bad Colin is so ugly and just so uncoordinated and lacks any kind of talent and thrashed me off the bed. It was awful.”



Jason Segel



Jason Segel went full-frontal nude in “Forgetting Sarah Marshall”, when Kristen Bell broke up him when he was completely nude.

You had to cringe a bit as Segel stood there totally bare as his girlfriend broke his heart in the movie.

Game of throne star Emilia Clarke -Daenerys Targaryen naked all the time!

Game of throne star Emilia Clarke -Daenerys Targaryen naked all the time!

Clarke was born in London and grew up in Berkshire.Her father is a theatre sound engineer,her mother is a businesswoman, and her younger brother is studying politics. Clarke's interest in acting began at the age of three after seeing the musical Show Boat, on which her father was working at the time. She was educated at St Edward's School, Oxford from 2000 to 2005,and Rye St Antony School. She then studied at Drama Centre London, graduating in 2009.

 In 2010, Clarke was cast as Daenerys Targaryen in the HBO medieval fantasy series Game of Thrones which is based on the book series A Song of Ice and Fire by George R. R. Martin. She was cast as a replacement to fellow British actress Tamzin Merchant, who was replaced for undisclosed reasons. The show debuted in April 2011 to positive reviews and was quickly picked up by the network for a second season. Clarke won the 2011 EWwy Award for Best Supporting Actress in a Drama for her role as Daenerys. In 2013, she was nominated for Outstanding Supporting Actress in a Drama Series for the 2013 Primetime Emmys.

She was showing her sexy nude body many times in this series. Wow! It was something to watch. I guess so many audiences gathered for this awesome TV show joined with Games of thrones just to watch her cute, naked body!

Anyway I suggest that this is a must watch tv drama. Not only because you can enjoy this cute lady and much much more ladies naked; also because that this series is full of action and thrilling events. This is a complete saga. Anyway I also prefer DVD. So I can watch the entire series without interruption and when even I want. Beside I can watch my favorite senses  in slow motion and enlarged. Such as this sweet gal bathing nude. 

She is also the lady with the dragons in this Series. Hope she will be in the series as long as its airing.

Updated on 24/5/2016
Obviously Emilly is not going to do nakeds anymore. She has refused further naked scenes. Too bad!!! I feel like a very large piece of Game Of Thrones show is gone.

Paul Walker Dies in Car Crash; Fast and the Furious Actor

Fans, friends and fellow stars have been paying tribute to US actor Paul Walker, who has died in a car crash.

Walker was best-known for playing Brian O'Conner in the Fast & Furious films.
The 40-year-old died on Saturday when a Porsche being driven by a friend, who also died, crashed near Los Angeles.
Walker's co-star Jordana Brewster said: "Paul was pure light. I cannot believe he is gone." Fellow Fast & Furious actor Vin Diesel wrote that "heaven has gained a new angel".
"Brother, I will miss you very much," Diesel said on Twitter.
In a second message, he said: "My heart is hurting so sad. Paul Walker was a good man. RIP my friend... Sorry to the Walker family."
Walker starred in five of the six movies in the popular Fast & Furious franchise and had started filming the seventh.
The accident happened while Walker was attending an event for his charity Reach Out Worldwide.

The red Porsche crashed into a lamp post in Valencia, north of Los Angeles

The Los Angeles County Sheriff's department said deputies found a car engulfed in flames when they responded to a report of a collision. Two people found in the car were pronounced dead at the scene.
Images showed the burned-out wreckage of a red Porsche by the side of the road.
"It is with a truly heavy heart that we must confirm that Paul Walker passed away today in a tragic car accident while attending a charity event for his organisation Reach Out Worldwide," a statement on the actor's Facebook page said.
"He was a passenger in a friend's car, in which both lost their lives. We... are stunned and saddened beyond belief by this news.''

BBC's Alastair Leithead on Paul Walker's career

Other tributes came from Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson, who has appeared in two Fast & Furious films. "All my strength, love & faith to the Walker family during this heartbreaking time," he wrote.
"We find our strength in his light. Love you brother."
Actress Jessica Alba, who appeared alongside Walker in the 2005 diving drama Into the Blue, described him as "a lovely person - so sweet and grounded".
Director Rob Cohen, who cast Walker in the first Fast & Furious picture as well as the 2000 drama Skulls, told Variety magazine that Walker and Vin Diesel were "the perfect duo for me".
Speaking about Walker, the director said: "His American beauty, his athleticism, the directness of his approach to the character, his effusive, down-to-earth personality brought joy to me and everyone around him.
"I will miss him all the rest of my days."
Ludacris, another co-star, recalled : "Your humble spirit was felt from the start, wherever you blessed your presence you always left a mark."

Walker's co-star Jordana Brewster said: 'Paul was pure light'

In the Fast & Furious films, Walker made his name playing undercover officer Brian O'Conner, who infiltrated a gang of illegal Californian street racers before switching allegiances to join them.
As well as those five movies, Walker's other credits included Flags of Our Fathers, Eight Below, Noel and the forthcoming Hurricane Katrina drama Hours.
Universal Pictures issued a statement saying Walker was "truly one of the most beloved and respected members of our studio family for 14 years".
"This loss is devastating to us, to everyone involved with the Fast & Furious films, and to countless fans," it said. "We send our deepest and most sincere condolences to Paul's family."
Walker began acting as a young boy when his mother, a model, took him to auditions for commercials.
He won roles in the TV series Touched by an Angel and The Young and the Restless before moving on to supporting roles in late 1990s films like with Varsity Blues and She's All That.
After the success of the first Fast & Furious film, Walker became the leading man for the second instalment when Vin Diesel dropped out.
Diesel later returned, however, and the six-film franchise has now earned an estimated $2.4bn (£1.5bn) at global box offices. The latest instalment, the sixth, was the most lucrative so far.
The seventh instalment began filming in September but has not been completed. It had been scheduled for release in July.

Walker's co-star Vin Diesel (left) said the actor's death had left him 'speechless'

Another forthcoming film is Brick Mansions, a remake of the French action film District B13, for film studio Relativity.
Relativity President Tucker Tooley said in a statement: "Paul was an incredibly talent artist, devoted philanthropist and friend."
