Nokia’s enormous new super-camera phone will be called the Lumia 1020, according to well-connected Twitter-based leak artist @evleaks. Up until now referred to as the Lumia EOS — an internal codename, apparently — the thoroughly leaked mobile is set to be the Windows Phone version of last year’s 41-megapixel 808 PureView, which my colleague Rich …

Having dialled back the mahoosive on its slinky Ascend P6 — freshly reviewed here — Huawei is sending another phone to the UK. I say ‘phone’: the MediaPad 7 Vogue is a 7-inch monster. But it is technically a phone because it can make calls, although like the Asus Fonepad, you’ll look like a Lilliputian if you use it that …

While Socrates (and his friends Bill and Ted) taught us the only true wisdom comes from knowing you know nothing, it’s not a philosophy that’s previously been embraced by Apple products. It’s heartening, then, to learn that robo-butler Siri is opening its mind in the upcoming iOS 7 update, adding the ability to learn how to pronounce new words. If …

A new leaked pic claiming to be of the Galaxy Note 3 has popped up, showing Samsung’s next stylus-centric superphone with an even bigger screen and an impressively thin bezel. The photo comes from an industry insider going by the handle ‘PunkPanda’, who was responsible for accurate leaks of the Galaxy S4 Mini, which was officially launched last night here …

Samsung’s busting out a supertanker-load of new kit tonight at a spangly event here in London town and as always CNET has you fully and comprehensively covered. We’ll be liveblogging festivities right here from 6.45pm, where you’ll also find an embedded stream of the event for your viewing pleasure. Samsung is calling this its Galaxy & Ativ event, meaning we’ll …

Apple won’t be making any radical changes to the iPhone with this year’s model, if new photos out of China are to be believed. Purporting to show the iPhone 5 and new iPhone 5S’ front panels side by side, this apparent leak shows they’re almost exactly the same. Spotted by AppleInsider on a Chinese-based blog called FanaticFone, the images could …

Huawei’s Ascend P6 is the thinnest mobile ever made, the Chinese company claims, having just officially announced the metallic Android phone at an event in London. At 6.2mm that’s hard to argue, but this isn’t the high-spec, high-cost handset some were expecting. With a 4.7-inch 1,280×720-pixel screen it’s not as massive or as high-res as rivals such as the HTC …

Jay-Z’s new album Magna Carta Holy Grail will be released early and for free to 1 million Samsung Galaxy S4, S3 and Note 2 owners, in a multi-million dollar promotional deal announced last night. If you’re packing one of the flagship smart phones, you can download a free app from 24 June that’ll unlock the long-player on 4 July — …

Lovefilm, Amazon’s £5 per month UK video streaming service, has signed up a bunch of family-friendly movies from Disney — not the entire House of Mouse canon, but a great sample nevertheless. Highlights include Pixar’s peerless Up, Wall-E and Ratatouille, and cheerful animated fare such as The Aristocats, Lady and the Tramp, Dumbo, Sword in the Stone, The Rescuers, Treasure …

Kazam! Just like magic, a new smart phone maker has appeared. Kazam is a UK-based brand of blower founded by former HTC execs — and is absolutely not to be confused with Kazaam, the mid-90s Shaquille O’Neal vehicle in which the gigantic basketballer plays a hip-hop loving genie. So don’t confuse them. Forget I made that reference. And don’t watch …
