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.
300 and 300 Rise of an empire; both are awesome epic movies both are highly entertaining. Actually I like both these films. I enjoyed a lot watching both of these. But which one is the best of the best is the question we face here. Both films have stunning stories and mind blowing action sequences. Both films have stunning performances by leading actors and actresses. Both are high-tec films. I mean they have used best available technologies while production. Both films are based on true historic events.
So what is the point which really drag one film upper than other. Well in my opinion it is the plot. 300 has a much sensitive plot than of 300 Rise of an Empire. The ordinance feel more close to the events and feel more sorry about the fate of the heroes in film 300. Beside the end is extremely powerful of film 300 than of 300 Rise of an Empire. It really brings tears from ordinance.
