Xperia Tablet Z:

  • 10.1 inch screen – 1080p resolution screen
  • Quad-core Snapdragon S4 processor
  • Waterproof and dust proof specifications
  • LTE
  • NFC
  • Android 4.1
  • 6,000 mAh battery

The specs look pretty darn good. If they can offer it at a competitive price, we might just have a worthy tablet from Sony to fight in the Android arena.

EE to close down a bunch of retail stores

EE Shop

Since the EE brand was created and the Orange and T-Mobile shops became integrated you may have noticed that your local town may have two EE retail stores. This is soon to change as EE are planning to close 78 shops in the UK where the brand has a double presence. The sales staff in these locations will be moved to other stores so their jobs seem safe however managers roles may well be a different matter.

A spokesperson for EE said: “Following the successful launch of EE, and the rebranding of former Orange and T-Mobile stores last year, we are determined to maintain momentum, and continue to drive growth. Consequently we have reviewed our retail estate to improve the service our customers are receiving on the high street.

“As part of this, where we have two EE stores in very close proximity to each other – in some places they are just a door away – we have decided to consolidate. This makes commercial sense and will also help us manage the high levels of demand in our stores and improve the customer experience.

“All front line staff will be moving to the other store which will boost service levels significantly. A store can only have one manager, so we will look to redeploy the small number of affected managers where possible.”

Expansys to stock the white Motorola RAZR i on February 4th

motorola-razr-i-white

If you have been looking forward to picking up the Motorola RAZR i SIM free in white then you now don’t have long to wait. Expansys are expecting stock in on February 4th and the device will cost a reasonable £329.99.

  • Stunning edge-to-edge display -4.3" HD screen
  • High precision design and premium materials – Corning Gorilla Glass, splash proof screen
  • Speedy performance – Intel Inside chip (2GHz) power’s Android Ice Cream Sandwich
  • Google in your hand – Google Play, Maps & Navigation, Google+, YouTube, Voice Actions
  • Long battery life – efficient power management, 2,000 mAh battery (iPhone 5 has a 1,440mAh battery)

4.3 inches of gorgeous edge-to-edge, AMOLED HD screen means you can be absorbed into your media like never before on the Motorola Razr I. Constructed from high quality materials, it’s as amazing to hold as it is to look at. It has an air-craft grade aluminium frame, tough Corning Gorilla Glass to protect the display from knocks and a splash-proof layering. It’s very light (126g) and the 8.9mm thickness justifies the Razr name.

Intel power growls underneath the striking exterior. Despite it being a single core processor Intel has managed to defy possibilities by squeezing dual core power from its 2GHz chip. This breezes through the Android Ice Cream Sandwich operating system – Jelly Bean available in due course. In terms of connectivity and memory, the Razr I has 8GB of memory built in, this can be expanded though thanks to the 32GB memory card slot. NFC is built in too.

Huawei Ascend P1 Review

Huawei Ascend P1 I would say that by now a lot of you guys reading this review would have heard of Huawei as a smartphone manufacturer as we at tracyandmatt.co.uk have looked at and reviewed many devices in the past. So with that in mind I would also imagine that you will have heard whisperings of the Huawei Ascend P1, the company’s’ flagship smartphone? If you haven’t heard of this phone then you will have by the conclusion to this review. Huawei have certainly got some stiff competition from the likes of HTC, Samsung and now Apple with the recent announcement of the iPhone 5 (I shall reserve judgement).

So I bet you’re all wondering what is this phone all about? And also maybe how well it will stack up against the mountain of competition?

Well if you do indeed wish to find out the ins and outs then I recommend reading on… after you’ve watched Matt’s unboxing and hands on video first of course.

Grab a 4G EE data SIM from Expansys and get the first month free of charge

expansys-ee-micro-sim-card

Sounds rather generous doesn’t it? There isn’t a catch either. Just order either a nano or micro SIM card from Expansys before the 28th of February, use the code ‘FREE4G’ and test out EE’s 4G speeds free for a month.

If you feel like staying with the UK’s first LTE network you can do so for £15.99 which will get you 5GB worth of data on a 30 day rolling contract. Whilst the deal may be slightly more expensive than some 3G alternatives you must remember that the data speeds can get a lot faster than 3G. I suppose it all depends what you use your smartphone for most.

Features You’ll Love
  • 5GB of data for just £15.99 a month
  • Compatible with 3G and 4G enabled devices
  • 30 day rolling contract
  • free access to any of the 4.5 Million BT Wi-Fi hot spots across the UK
