Smartphones

Evolution rather than revolution. Galaxy S9+ is probably still worth the €1,000 asking price when compared to the iPhone X

Nokia impress with their upcoming offerings. The 8110 is solid and snappy. Nokia 6 and 7plus carry a unique and attractive physical design that should help them stand out. At €249 and €399 respectively, they are a pair to be reckoned with.

A surplus of power, an impressive battery life, incomparable video capture all in a sleek, new Sony design is quite the package

The poor chassis speakers, lack of splashproofing and camera inconsistency may betray it somewhat when lined up with premium flagships. However, the Honor View 10 can compete elsewhere despite coming in around €200-300 less expensive than others.

Pre-order XZ2 or XZ2 Compact and you can then choose either a Gran Turismo 500GB PS4 Slim bundle or, if you already have a PS4, you can get a PSVR starter pack

For everyday tasks, looking good and shooting quality daylight shots, the Xperia XA2 will do nicely. But other handsets in the same price-bracket have more going for them.

Plenty of RAM, some great features and a generous battery make the Xperia a decent option for its price. But the device's camera, overall look and screen let it down.
