Has Sony added enough to warrant a Z2 sequel already?

The Sony Xperia Z3 isn't a phone that you'd have thought would make a lot of sense. After all, the Xperia Z2 was a nifty little handset and yet it's now been replaced barely six months later.

The new phone, from the outside at least, doesn't seem to add much more into the mix, merely improving things a little more and tweaking elements that were already pretty good. So has Sony really done enough?

The Xperia Z3, which lands alongside a new tablet and mini phone to complete the family (the Xperia Z3 Tablet Compact and the Xperia Z3 Compact), is a really good phone that does it all, on paper at least. Read More...

Forget Apple's BendGate now Samsung are facing GapGate

Apple’s Iphone 6  BendGate issues have filled the tech headlines over the past week.

But now it seems one of their major rivals could have an even bigger problem on their hands.

Samsung's new Galaxy Note 4 has just gone on sale in Korea and it appears some users are noticing a serious design flaw with the handset.

Apparently, the 5.7-inch device has a visible gap between the screen and its case which is big enough to pop a business card in.

Some sources are saying that Samsung rushed production of the device to fight off competition from Apple’s iPhone 6 Plus.

Microsoft Unveils New Operating System, Dubbed Windows 10

Microsoft has unveiled its initial work on the next version of the Windows operating system, calling it Windows 10.

Revealed during a press event in downtown San Francisco, the new OS is designed to run across a wide range of machines, including everything from tiny “internet of things” devices in business offices to phones, tablets, laptops, and desktops to computer servers running in the massive data centers that underpin the world’s internet services. “Windows 10 will deliver the right experience at the right time on the right device,” said Microsoft operating systems chief Terry Myerson.

The OS will be available to consumers, but it was designed, in particular, for use by the world’s businesses. According to Myerson, businesses will be able to manage all their Windows 10 machines by way of a single central piece of software, and they will have the option of creating their own “app store” for use by employees across these devices.
