Google’s Nexus 5X and Nexus 6P have appeared in numerous leaks, all seemingly confirming the same general picture. LG made the next-gen affordable and reasonably sized Nexus handset (the Nexus 5X) while Huawei was tasked with creating the next-gen high-end Nexus handset (the Nexus 6P).
With just a few days to go until Google’s September 29th announcement event for the handsets, a Geekbench 3 benchmark test has been discovered, further detailing the specs of the Nexus 5X and suggesting the handset will be rather affordable. A similar test for the Huawei Nexus handset is also available, indicating the phone will offer performance on par with the class-leading Galaxy S6.

I’ll be buying an iPhone 6s this year but I can’t say I’m overly happy about it. Don’t get me wrong, I’m excited to own a device that I think is the best overall smartphone on the market right now. I just don’t happen to think it’s a religious experience. It won’t change my life forever. And I sure as hell won’t stand in line outside the damn Apple Store for hours to buy one. Why? Because at the end of the day, it’s just a phone.

The fact that there are so many Android smartphones out there now that support wireless charging is terrific. Of course, it would be even better if the companies that make these phones actually included a wireless charger in the box with the phone. Instead, they try to hit you for another $40, $50 or even more for a wireless charger that has to be purchased separately.

After years of predictability from Samsung’s Galaxy line, we were pleasantly surprised by the significant changes that Samsung brought to the table with the S6 and S6 edge earlier this year.

Things are not going well right now for HTC, which makes what are indisputably some of the best smartphones in the world. The company’s problem — apart from the fact that it thought releasing a flagship phone that’s barely an update from last year’s model was a good idea mid-tailspin — is that it simply doesn’t have the size or marketing budget to battle Samsung in the Android market.
However, it looks like things are about to take an interesting turn: Just as Samsung ripped off Apple’s iPhone to aid in its climb to the top (remember that damning 132-page internal report on how to copy the iPhone pixel by pixel?), it appears as though HTC is preparing to follow suit as it struggles to regain its footing in the smartphone market it once briefly led.

Every carrier wants you to believe they have the best iPhone 6s offer in the history of the world… that’s if you can figure out exactly what they’re offering you. Sometimes you’ll think you’re buying a new iPhone from your carrier only to discover that you’re actually just leasing it. Other times you’ll bank on getting a giant trade-in credit for your old device only to find out it’s either not qualified or isn’t worth as much as you thought. But fear not! We’ve gone through all the four major carriers’ iPhone 6s offers and will break down exactly what they’re looking to sell you.
Note: For the purposes of this exercise we will be comparing carrier offers for the 16GB iPhone 6s. If you’re interested in buying a larger iPhone 6s with more storage, it will obviously cost more than the prices we’ve listed below.
