This is a guest post from the ever-knowledgable Gareth at Tech Radar where he sorts through the MWC 2012 rumour-mill to bring us a look at the handset highlights set to get your heart hammering.

With MWC 2012 almost here, we’re getting a pretty good idea of what the big players are going to lavish upon us in the mobile space this year.

So here’s our quick round-up of what we’re expecting at the headline mobile event in Barcelona later this month from the main brands: more...

It’s high time for a second bout in our series of smartphone fights. This week the devices battling it out for your affection are the already released and rated Samsung Galaxy R, and the forthcoming Samsung Galaxy S Advance, which we are expecting to arrive in the last week of March.

So, two of Samsung's ever-improving mid-range Android smarpthones; what are the differences, and which one deserves your hrd-earned cash? Let the fight begin! more...

As the first tablet to come powered by a quad-core processor the Asus Eee Pad Transformer Prime was always going to be popular. When you add in that the Transformer Prime is also the first tablet in the UK to officially run Android 4.0, Ice Cream Sandwich, it is perhaps not surprising that anticipation has been so high.

Adding fuel to the fire has been some slight delays in stock arriving - the Prime has been a product everyone wants, but no one can find as stock is flying of the shelves faster than we can stock it, and that scarcity has only increased the desire of tech fans to get a look. So it came as a mighty pleasant surprise when Asus were able to let us have a few hours with one recently. Can it possibly live up to the anticipation? We went hands-on to try and find out! more...

We've just got in a large delivery of HTC's Flyer tablet, and the 16GB version with Wi-Fi connectivity is now just £234.99 (at time of writing).

We've been saying for a while now that the era of tablets becoming an everyday object is here. Now those of you who want to dip their toes into the lovely, warm tablet waters but don't want to dilute the experience with a lower-end model can do so with HTC's high-quality beauty. more...

It’s about time we had a good fight here at EXPANSYS. We have been trying to figure out which two devices to use to reenact our childhood battlefield fantasies and finally in walked the new Acer Allegro and Samsung Omnia W. Similar price and size, same OS and seemingly similar specs and performance. So who will ultimately be the winner between these reasonably priced WP7 handsets?

Well, let the battle begin! more...
