How to pick the right phone caseblog

[b]Choosing a phone case is tougher than you think. You could get one that offers protection from anything you can throw at it, or one that’s super-stylish, but perhaps not as strong. Still stuck for ideas? Then let us inspire you with these helpful tips.[/b] [h3]Choose your colour[/h3] [img]1df2f42b-d1d6-450e-b5cc-dd84a670c165.png[/img] The colour of your new phone case might be the first thing you consider. Go for something bright if you want to transform your phone into a fashion accessory, or something transparent if you want to show off your phone - and keep it protected - without covering it up. [h3]Go for something that’s tough[/h3] Along with looks, protection should be at the top of your thinking. Phone cases come with varying degrees of toughness. How tough you decide to go depends on your lifestyle, and how clumsy you are, because let’s face it, we’ve all dropped our phone at least once.

Android turns ten!Blog

[b]It’s a decade since we saw the very first Android phone - it all started with the HTC Dream ten years ago. We’ve taken a look back at Android through the years, and how it’s got to where it is now. Join us in an all-out nostalgia-fest.[/b] [h3][b]Where it all started – the HTC Dream[/b][/h3] It seems like Android phones have been around forever, but it is in fact just ten years. But while these days we’re dazzled by phones like the Samsung Galaxy S9 or Sony Xperia XZ3, it wasn’t always this way. Take the first Android phone, the HTC Dream. It wasn’t exactly a looker – it was actually rather boring-looking, with a flat physical keyboard. But it was certainly a trailblazer – and helped pave the way for all the great things Android gives us today. It sounds like a small thing, but this phone let you copy and paste – the iPhone 3G didn’t let you do that back then. [b][h3]So, what made us love Android back then?[/h3][/b] [b]Make your phone your own[/b] One of the great things we c

What’s so great about wireless charging?Blog

[b]More and more smartphones are using wireless charging to get back up to speed after a hard day’s work. So you can forget about plugs, wires and cables – where we’re going, we won’t need them.[/b] Wireless charging has been around for a few years, but it’s only been quite recently that the major smartphone releases have started featuring it. And if you ask us, it’s about time. Technology that lets us power up our favourite devices without worrying about wires and searching for plug sockets? Yes please. Wireless charging is the future, and here’s everything you need to know about it… [b][h3]How does wireless charging work?[/h3][/b] Ready for some science? Good, because here it comes. Wireless charging – also known as inductive charging – uses magnetised coils to create an electromagnetic field. A moving magnet inside the coil generates electricity, which can be transferred to another coil nearby as a source of power. So just imagine the other coil nearby is inside the battery of y

Hands-on with the Samsung Galaxy A8blog

[b]The Samsung Galaxy A8 has arrived, and there are plenty of reasons to get excited. Why? Because it’s an affordable smartphone, yet one that’s packed with features you’d expect to find on a premium phone.[/b] We’ve recently got our hands on an A8, and we’re mightily impressed by what it can do. Here’s what we think of it so far. [h3]A screen worthy of your viewing time[/h3] [img]58c32b1a-77ed-4aa1-9040-bf482ac1a7e1.png[/img] The A8 has taken its share of inspiration from the more premium flagship Galaxy S8. In fact, the A8 isn’t too far off the same look and feel. The glass front, and rear metal frame is as much of a joy to look at as the S8. The upper and lower bezels around the phone have also been slimmed down, so most of the front is just screen, and distracting black borders around the edge are a thing of the past. As specs go, you’re looking at a 5.6-inch Super AMOLED display with Full HD+ resolution. Naturally the viewing experience is great. The colours are br

Five reasons you need a big screen phoneblog

[b]The last few months have seen some awesome new phones release. And they all have one thing in common – a hulking big screen. Just recently you had the [url=https://www.idmobile.co.uk/shop/pay-monthly/samsung-galaxy-a7]Samsung Galaxy A7[/url] – and then you’ve got other phones such as the [url=https://www.idmobile.co.uk/shop/pay-monthly/huawei-p20-pro]Huawei P20 Pro[/url] that are great for previewing your photos. This got us thinking about how much we love big-screen phones, and why you should love them too.[/b] [h3]Super-sized multitasking[/h3] Big screens let you see so much more – which means they’re superb for multitasking. Multitasking lets you run more than one app at the same time, and in split-screen. So, you could be watching a film while having a group chat with your friends, and you won’t miss a second of the movie. With the screen split in two parts, you can do so much more at once.

Five ways your phone can get you out of troubleblog

[b]You may not realise it, but your phone can help you in more ways than you know. It can get you out of a tight spot, and be a real lifesaver when you least expect.

5 of the best endless running gamesBlog

[b]We love endless running games. They’re easy to pick up and play, and can be horribly addictive. Because every time you die during a run, you think you’ll be able to go further with just one more go, right? So here you go. If you don’t mind wasting endless hours long into the night, we’ve come up with five amazing endless runners for you to take a swipe at. They're all free from Google Play or the App Store.[/b] [h3]Minion Rush[/h3] [video]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E4HclOqb4D4&feature=youtu.be[/video] Even if you’re not a fan of those lovable minions, the spectacular Minion Rush is worth giving a go. We can’t think of an endless running game that’s more fun - or diverse. Yes, you’ll be doing the usual jumping, ducking and dodging, but you’ll also be riding on rockets, sliding through water and attacking bad guys (we’re looking at you, El Macho). And we haven’t even mentioned the mini-games yet. One minute, you could be collecting bananas on the moon, and the next, riding

6 Android problems and how to fix themBlog

[b]So, you’re an Android user. Good choice. Not only is it an operating system that you can customise but it’s also very user-friendly. However, this doesn’t mean annoying niggles can’t crop up from time to time. If your Android’s playing up or is on its last legs, here are a few quick fixes to common problems that could save the day.[/b] [h3]1. Apps playing up[/h3] If your apps aren’t working the way they should, there are a few things you can check. Firstly, see if there’s an update available for the problematic app. If there is, update it. But if that doesn’t do the trick, force the app to close by pressing the square button on your home screen to bring up your multi-tasking menu. Then, locate the app and swipe it away. This way when you re-open the app any corrupted data will hopefully have been wiped away. Still hasn’t worked? It’s time to uninstall the app completely, and reinstall it. If that doesn’t work, try getting in touch with its developer for advice. You can usuall

What we love about the Samsung Galaxy S9 camerablog

[b]Torn between the Samsung Galaxy S9 and the Samsung Galaxy S9+? We’re not surprised, both are great Android phones, with amazing photography skills. We love taking photos with either phone, here’s a few reasons why you will, too.[/b] [h3]Take photos like a pro at any time of day[/h3] Taking photos at night isn’t easy. Only the best cameras can take a great shot in low light. What you need is a good aperture, and the Galaxy S9 has that. It can automatically switch between two aperture sizes (f/2.4 and f/1.5), for spectacular photos during the day, or late evening in dim light. For dark scenes, the camera lens switches to an f/1.5 aperture to let in more light. You’ll find this perfect for shooting on a night out, or in dimly lit venues like restaurants. During the day, the lens goes back to f./2.4 for clear daytime photos that are sharp and full of colour.

How to fix a mobile internet connectionBlog

[b]Are you having a nightmare with your mobile connection? Sometimes phones can develop strange random faults – like only being able to get online when connected to Wi-Fi. Frustrating, we know. Don’t worry though, we’ve put together a list of tips to help you get those connection problems sorted. [/b] [h3][b]Make sure it isn’t just a slow connection [/b][/h3] At times a connection can be so slow that it seems like you have no connection at all. Take a look at the signal bars at the top of your screen, and check there are no symbols that show a mobile internet connection. Prime examples would be: E, 3G, 4G, H, H+ or 46/LTE. Any of these symbols show that your phone is in fact connected to the internet – which means your issue is internet speed. Get in touch with iD to check if there are any connectivity issues in your area. [h3][b]Turn it off and on again[/b][/h3] Yes, that’s right, the old cliché.

Does AI really help you take awesome photos?Blog

[b]Ever wished you could take better photos? Well, thanks to AI-powered photography, you now can. It’s the next big thing in mobile, and it could revolutionise the way we take photos for good. But what is AI photography, and how does it work? Let us explain.[/b] [h3]First of all, what is AI?[/h3] AI stands for artificial intelligence. It has its roots in machine learning from the 1950s. Boffins in the U.S. taught a computer to play draughts, by programming it to anticipate and predict the moves of a human opponent. With practice, the computer learnt how to become a better player. By mimicking natural human behaviour, the computer’s playing eventually became indistinguishable from a real person. AI has come on leaps and bounds since those primitive draught-playing days. It’s now inside our phones and other smart devices in the form of Google Assistant, Siri, or Amazon’s Alexa. These AI-powered virtual assistants are clever enough to understand us, answer our questions and respond

So, let’s get you up to speed, and show you how to create your very own slices of Instagram history.[/b] [h2]What are Instagram Stories?[/h2] Instagram Stories has got to be the most eye-catching feature on Instagram.

You’re basically free to come up with any story you want. You could create one of a big night out with friends, mixing up photos and videos, or you could share an evening spent trying to create a culinary classic in the kitchen. Even if you don’t get it right, it could still be worth posting – we all love a failed attempt at a Bake Off classic.

On top of the adaptive battery, there’s also a thing called adaptive brightness, which works out for itself how you use your brightness settings.

Here's what we know about the new Nokia 7.1Blog

[b]It’s been a busy year for Nokia so far, and our favourite Finnish phone maker isn’t letting up just yet. At an exclusive London event on Thursday 4 October, the Nokia 7.1 was unveiled in all its glory. So without further ado, let’s lift the lid on the new Nokia’s best bits.[/b] [h2]Strong looks, strong glass[/h2] The 7.1 has a metal (series 600 Series Aluminium, since you ask) and glass build - and with attractive diamond-cut edges, it really does look like a premium piece of kit. Super-tough Corning Gorilla Glass 3 surrounds it, making the 7.1 impressively damage and scratch resistant. [h2]An edge-to-edge, top notch display[/h2] The new Nokia will be rocking a 5.84-inch Full HD display, compatible with HDR content. Juho Sarvikas, Chief Product Officer at HMD Global, made a point of highlighting this feature at the launch event: “The Nokia 7.1 even offers real-time SDR to HDR conversion, meaning you can experience HDR quality entertainment, event when your content is not.”

Let’s take a closer look.[/b] [b][h3]The screen’s a gamer’s delight[/h3][/b] The Honor Play is great for gaming. Well, the clue’s in the title, really. But a great gaming phone simply wouldn’t be complete without a great big screen. And the Honor Play certainly has one of those – there’s a whole 6.3-inches to play with, the largest on any Honor phone. Plus it’s Full HD+ so you can really immerse yourself in what’s happening on screen. It has a bigger body-to-screen ratio for a better view of the action, and if you’re worried that the notch will distract you, simply hide it. Plus, with up to 16 million colours, that’ll do all your games justice.

Are megapixels important?blog

[b]When searching for a great camera phone, one of the things we tend to look at first is how many megapixels it has. A phone with a bigger megapixel count may sound tempting, but there’s more to a great camera phone than that magic number. Here are a few more things worth considering.[/b] [h3][b]All about the lens[/b][/h3] A good lens is an important – if not the most important – factor when it comes to phone photography. It controls how much light comes into the camera. [img]0e853aae-246b-4b93-b34e-c2cf87c3eb2d.jpg[/img] Many manufacturers have their own trusty external lens supplier. Nokia for example loves using Carl Zeiss lenses in its higher-end cameras, as the company is renowned for high quality lenses capable of capturing crisp, sharp image. The Huawei P20 Pro relies on a Leica lens, in its excellent triple-lens camera phone. [h3][b]Look out for aperture[/b][/h3] Aperture is another thing to consider. Aperture is measured in f stops, followed by a number. Ideall
