How would you change Nokia’s Lumia 520?


Like Samsung, Nokia’s smartphone strategy has always been focused around choice. Sometimes this results in products that are so very similar that it’s impossible to tell the difference. That’s not an issue with Nokia’s Lumia 520, the ultra-budget device that was totally swallowed in the shadow of the 620. Sharif Sakr swaddled the phone in derision, criticizing its poor performance, bad camera, unevenly-lit display and poor build quality. For many of you, we imagine you wound up getting this handset for price reasons alone, so the question that we have to ask is simple: what did you like, what did you hate, and what would you have changed? You can shoot the breeze in our forum, or why not write a review of the phone yourself?

Most Suitable Device for Gaming


0744_smartphones_for_gamers_768x432_con_main

There have been so many developments in technology in recent years that means it has become easier than ever for games developers to ensure that their games can be accessed across all portals and devices.  Of course it depends on the type of game, which device would be most compatible.

With the introduction of the likes of Google Play this has made things fairly standard for Android phones so game can be brought into the mobile market quicker.  This is also similar for the iOS platform with the app store.  There has even been the launch of the likes of GameKlip that now allows you to attach PS3 controllers to your Android device just like you would with a PS Vita.  It means you don’t have the added complication of using the touch screen and can simply use the controls.

We thought that we would give you the scoop on some of the best mobile devices that can be used for gaming.

Apple iPhone 5C

This little number is very compact which means it’s not a pain to transport around.  It’s also less expensive than the iPhone 5S making it attractive to consumers.  The resolution isn’t as good as what you could get with other mobile phones at 1136×640 a 325ppi. The best thing about this phone is the range of games that you can play on it.  With the Apple App store, you can do just a quick search and be presented with a flurry of gaming treats.

Google Nexus 5

The Google Nexus 5 is available in both black and white, so would appeal to those of you who want to look stylish.  It is powered by Android 4.4, so has a fantastic HD resolution.  This is perfect for those of you who enjoy good graphics and animations whether you are playing Angry Birds or having a game of some mobile bingo. Find out more details about mobile bingo sites.  The only downside about this device is that there is no section for an external card to be inserted, so it’s only available in 16 GB and 32 GB. This may be an issue if you are playing games that require a lot of data.

Samsung Galaxy Note 3

This game allows up to 64 GB in storage which is double that of Google Nexus and can offer up to a further 64 GB if required.  The quad core and GPU will allow you to have a go on any game you come across and with Google Play at your disposal there is more than enough to choose from.  It has a high resolution of 1080p and 386ppi making games even more enjoyable to play.

LG G2

The LG G2 is one of the best selling phones by LG.  It’s available in 16 different varieties with 32 GB.  What is most promising about this device is the visuals that it offers. It runs at 1080p and 424ppi and has the capacity to support HD graphics.  The downside with this device again is that it doesn’t have a memory card slot so there is minimal space for data.

Nokia Lumia 520

Nokia Lumia is of course a Windows phone.  This means that there are fewer games that are compatible with it. Although the selection is smaller, there are some games that are only exclusively available to that phone.  It has a 6 inch screen which is the largest on the list, prefect for games that require a little more detail than normal.  It runs at 1080p and 367ppi and has a fantastic touch screen.

There we have it folks a full list of phones that are great for gaming!  If you are looking for a phone that can support games with a large amount of data then you may like the Samsung Galaxy Note.  Or if the enjoyment of graphics and animations are more top on your list, then the Google Nexus 5 will be right up your street.  If it’s variety you are after then the iPhone 5C is the one for you!
