Quality Doesn’t Cost a Fortune with the Alcatel OneTouch Idol 3 Smartphone

September 16, 2015 by Kathryn 1 Comment

When it comes to my smartphone, I’m a bit of a snob. I tend to favour the pricey, top-of-the-line devices and while I know iPhones are popular I personally really dislike the iOS smartphone platform. Previously, I had a Samsung Galaxy S3 when it was the top Samsung phone available. I then moved to the S4 and later to a Nokia Lumia 1020 Windows Phone, easily one of my favourite devices of all time.

But through mishaps and glitches, I recently found myself using a phone with a cracked screen that wouldn’t hold a charge. I knew it was time for an update and Alcatel, a somewhat new-to-Canada company offering smartphones and tablets, came to my rescue by offering me the chance to review its brand new Idol 3 smartphone.

Now as much as I appreciate the benefits of an entry-level Android phone, I’ve tried a few in the past and they just weren’t right for me. For a teenager or a family on a budget, a more affordable smartphone is ideal.

Upgrading to the Telus Samsung Galaxy S4

January 28, 2014 by Kathryn 28 Comments

I was a little slow to get on the smartphone bandwagon, but after getting a Samsung Galaxy S3 phone at the end of 2012, I was hooked. I am an Android girl through-and-through and proud of it, though after over a year with my S3, I couldn’t help but think about upgrading. So when Telus gave me the chance to review the new Samsung Galaxy S4, I was eager to it a try.

In all honesty, I didn’t expect much of a difference. I had seen the S4 and aside from being slightly larger and thinner, the basic layout and features seemed to be pretty similar to my current phone. So essentially, I expected I would be reviewing a slightly larger version of the same phone I already used with maybe a few minor tweaks to the interface and features.

The Samsung Galaxy S4 is just a little bigger and a little thinner than the S3, but it makes a big difference in the overall feel of the phone.
