It’s neither a great tablet nor a great laptop replacement
Microsoft Surface Pro

The Surface Pro hints at genius but implodes under the weight of its own ambition. But the potential is plain to see.

The Nokia Lumia 520 is a great little smartphone. It delivers what Nokia is known for, with good design and build quality, despite the affordable price point. A few hardware shortcuts have been made, knocking out the flash, front camera and NFC, for example, which the slightly more expensive Lumia 620 offers.
But at this price there's little to criticise. It's a competent smartphone, delivering the Windows Phone 8 experience aptly, so if you're in the market for a smartphone that won't cost the earth, it's well worthy of consideration. If you have a few pounds more, however, then it's worth looking at the Lumia 620 too.

Sony succeeded in making the thinnest and lightest 10” Android tablet waterproof, and added four virtual surround speakers to all the prerequisites for a modern flagship tablet like high-resolution display and a quad-core processor. We'd wish the processor was a bit faster, but that's about the only gripe we have with the Xperia Tablet Z, and you'd be hard-pressed to find a better Android tablet in the $500 range.
