When we first saw Phonebloks, it started something of a firestorm on the Internet; and, when it turned out to actually be a genius bit of viral marketing from Motorola for its Project Ara modular phone, we got genuinely excited because it had a big name behind it, which meant it was more likely to become real. Of course, we had to assume that Motorola would face competition, and ZTE is the first in the ring with its Eco-Mobius prototype...

The just-announced Asus ZenFone 6 with its $200 price tag is for those who want a brand-name phablet on the cheap. A high-end product it is not, but it delivers quite a lot of bang for its buck – a 6-inch screen, 13MP camera, 3230mAh battery, and a 2GHz dual-core processor are in its arsenal. All of this makes the ZenFone 6 a great alternative to those higher-end phablets, including the Samsung Galaxy Note 3. Here's how the two look when compared side by side...

Just in case you hadn't seen enough wearables coming out of CES this year, Archos is adding three smartwatches to the mix. The company is most well known for its budget Android tablets, and is now moving into the smartwatch game, although details are a bit scarce right now. We don't know much more than the prices and what the watches look like...

Smartwatches. Smartbands. Wrist-worn fitness sensors. There are several things we can say about these trendy gadgets, and “too many” is one of them. They are all over CES 2014! Both major and fledgling companies have announced various upcoming projects, which are mostly centered around some kind of wearable tech. ..

ASUS unveiled the VivoTab Note 8, joining the ranks of 8" Windows tablets that Win 8.1 made possible, and graced it with a professional Wacom digitizer stylus that lets you scribble directly on the display. We took the small Windows slate for a spin, and here is what we found out...

We caught up with Acer at CES2014 in Las Vegas, and took a look at one of its new smartphones, the dual SIM Acer Liquid Z5. Aimed at the budget crowd, the phone is expected to launch in Europe with a €169 price tag ($230) sometime in the next few weeks. As the price suggests, this is no heavy-hitter, and its specs sheet suggests as much. Check out what we found...

Acer continues making some of the most affordable tablets from a brand you have actually heard of, and the Iconia B1 comes singing the same tunes. An extremely affordable 7-inch tablet running on Android 4.2 Jelly Bean…

Qualcomm has revealed on the hush-hush for a Japanese publication that the first Snapdragon 805 device will arrive in May this year, leaving us to wonder what would it be. The schedule Qualcomm set for itself when it announced its newest chipset creation is for it to be in devices by the second half of the year, so a first device in May puts it right in sync with this deadline...

Can $150 buy you a decent Android phone from a brand you've actually heard of? Yup, we're totally getting there and Asus is one of the companies hard at work towards making that possible. In fact, the Taiwanese company already has an offering that aims to meet that description, namely the just-announced Asus ZenFone 5. It is a $150 mid-range device with a 5-inch screen, 8MP camera, and a dual-core processor of the Atom variety. That right there, looking at specs alone, is a pretty good value-for-money ratio. But as ambitious as it is, the ZenFone 5 is clearly no match for a high-end rival such as the Samsung Galaxy S4. Or is it? Well, let's put them side by side and find out...

Being among the bigger names at this year's CES tradeshow, the new Samsung Galaxy TabPRO tablet series easily made it to the list of devices that we wanted to spend a bit more time with...

The introduction of the Sony Xperia Z1S for the US market, along with the long-awaited unveiling of the Z1 Compact, sure captured most of our attention, but those were hardly all that the Japanese company had in store for CES2014. Much alike to... just about everyone else, Sony also introduced new wearable tech...

One of the biggest announcements of CES 2014 was not a single device, but a chip - the Nvidia Tegra K1. A huge step up in mobile graphics…

Asus staged quite the surprise for smartphone fans at CES2014 in Las Vegas, introducing as many as three new Zenfones, along with two PadFone devices. That's a lot of Asus, and the Taiwanese company sure piqued our interest. The Asus Zenfone 5...

It has been over the year since ZTE made its Nubia Z5 smartphone official and now we're given the privilege to meet its successor at CES 2014. The ZTE Nubia Z5s, at it is known in its homeland of China, brings along a number of notable changes in the specs department while sticking to the brand's design characteristics set by the first Nubia. Let's take a closer look...

Here at CES, ZTE is showcasing its Nubia Z5s mini smartphone – a slightly smaller alternative to the company's Nubia Z5s flagship. It is already on sale in China where it can be bought for as low as $250, which is definitely not bad considering what you get in exchange. The colorful handset has a respectable Snapdragon 600 SoC under the hood paired with 2GB of RAM and it treats your eyes to a 4.7-inch HD IGZO display made by Sharp. Let's check it out in detail...

In case you somehow didn't notice, CES2014 was bombarded with new wearable tech. Wristbands, or smartbands as they're being called now, took most of the stage (and not smartwatches), and the LG Lifeband Touch is but one of many. Much alike to many other fitness bands, such as the Nike FuelBand and the FitBit Force, the Lifeband Touch specializes in tracking your overall health thanks to a whole bunch of readings being fed to a companion app. What sets LG's smart wristband apart from the competition, however, is the fact that it's also useful when you're not exercising or "the other 23 hours" as an LG VP calls them...

We knew that T-Mobile had something exciting to announce at its CES 2014 media event and here it is. The nation's fourth largest carrier announced phase four of its Un-carrier strategy, thus making it significantly easier and cheaper for AT&T, Verizon, and Sprint customers to make the switch over to T-Mobile...

Lenovo keeps churning out amazing computers at rock bottom prices, bent on keeping its largest computer maker title, and eating the market share on much more established names. This CES 2014 edition was used by Lenovo to further solidify that trend, and after having a brief hands-on with the new member of the Miix tablet line, we are convinced Lenovo is nailing what Windows 8.1 is all about better than most other companies out there...
