HTC One

HTC needed to deliver a stunning phone to reverse its ailing fortunes – and the One might just be, er, the one. From the gloriously rich full HD screen to the seamless, precision-engineered aluminium body, it’s a marvel of design.

The HTC One is a product designed to save a company in financial trouble – and it seems HTC’s design and engineering team work well with their backs against the wall.

This Android phone is the best product HTC has ever built, with a gorgeously thin, reassuringly rigid aluminium body bonded to the 4.7-inch screen by a technique that doesn’t leave a single gap. And speaking of the screen, it’s eyeball-piercingly sharp, with a 1080p full HD resolution and Retina display-spanking pixel density of 468ppi. It’s one of a handful of phones that can be mentioned in the same breath as the iPhone when it comes to looks and build quality.

Performance is no less impressive, with the quad-core processor blazing through tasks with nary a trace of lag and the 4MP Ultrapixel camera serving up some of the finest snaps we’ve ever seen from a smartphone.

Google Nexus 5

So, it’s finally here, the successor to the bargain Nexus 4, the Nexus 5 ups the specs in almost every area, including a bigger screen, faster processor and, hopefully, a better camera. It’s also the first device running the latest version of Google’s Android OS, 4.4 Kit Kat.

Google has bumped the size up to 5-inches, increasing the ppi to 445 and the resolution to 1920x1080. This full HD, 1080p display puts it right up there with the big boys like the HTC One, Sony Xperia Z1 and Samsung Galaxy S4. Another area, another improvement for the Nexus 5, which now ships with a really quite powerful, top of the line 2.3GHz quad-core Qualcomm Snapdragon 800 processor, along with 2GB RAM and is available in both 16GB and 32GB flavours.

The same 8-megapixel snapper is on board, though it now features optical image stabilisation to try and ensure your shots are a tad less blurry.

Denon’s network music system is a fully realised, next-gen super-system now with AirPlay as standard. The main unit integrates an amp, CD, web radio/streamer, iPod dock and FM tuner.

Audio quality is light and creamy, propelled by a punchy, 65W amp. It’s pretty much perfect for its price.

Alcatel One Touch Idol X+

Boasting a whopping eight cores of power, a 2 GHz chip and 2GB RAM, this one seriously beefed up smartphone. There's a 5-inch, full HD display to gaze upon, while the rear camera packs 13.1-megapixels and it's all crammed in a 7.9mm shell. It's not all good though as 4G LTE is lacking and out of the box it'll only come running Android version 4.2 (we're on 4.4 now) layered with Alcatel's skin.

Price: $250 (UK price TBA) | Alcatel One Touch

ZTE Grand S II

Coming with a 5.5-inch 1080p screen, a 2.3GHz Snapdragon 800, 13-megapixel rear camera and a 2-megapixel sensor up front, the ZTE Grand S II looks to be your typical high-end smartphone. However, it's the clever use of voice-recognition that really sets it apart from the crowd. Working a bit like the features on the Moto X, the phone will instantly recognise you when you speak, unlike the Moto though, it will be able to recognise more than one voice. You'll also be able to snap photos with a voice command - clever.

Sony Xperia Z1 Compact

Finally, there's a top tier Android device that doesn't cut a load of corners in order to take it from a 5-inch phone to a 4.3-inch version. This is basically last year's Z1, but in a shrunken down frame and with a 720p display. Under the hood you'll find,a Snapdragon 800 along processor, along with Android 4.3 and that fantastic 20-meg snapper. It's also waterproof, if you fancy taking your phone into the shower.

Multi-touch Keyboard and Mouse

Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the future of computing. The entire thing is operated by touch control, and thanks to the lack of moveable parts and the tempered glass surface, this keyboard isn't going to break down after a small spillage. The potential for a touch sensitive input device like this is enormous, especially as inventor Jason Giddings is making the accompanying software open source.

As an additional bonus, Jason Giddings claims his invention is "coffee and donut resistant", making this mouse and keyboard combination essential for modern day Kojaks everywhere.

M-Phone

Hoping to one day be an alternative to the iPhone, the slender handset has a screen that is divided by a thin metal band which means you can customize the lower screen to browse the web as you make a video call on the other half. It’s a similar idea that has been seen on the Galaxy Note, and this would certainly be another elegant way to do some mobile multitasking.
