Apple just announced the much-anticipated iPhone 5s and iPhone 5c at an event in Cupertino, and both devices will go on sale next Friday, September 20. The iPhone 5s hopes to compete with the latest high-end devices from the likes of Samsung, Nokia, and HTC, while the iPhone 5c aims to be a decent midrange offering that’ll get you into Apple’s ecosystem without breaking the bank.

So how do these devices stack up against their rivals? We’ve compared the iPhone 5s with the Galaxy S4, the HTC One, the Nokia Lumia 1020, and other popular devices to help you establish which one provides you with the most bang for your buck. We’ve also thrown in the iPhone 5c for good measure so that you can decide whether its price tag is as good as it seems.

Yesterday, Sprint officially announced that LG’s latest flagship smartphone, the G2, will be available to pre-order from its website, starting October 11, for the sum of $199 on a 2-year contract. Furthermore, Sprint will also be giving away a complimentary Quick Window case (worth $49) with every pre-order of the handset.

I don’t know about you, but I’ve been itching to find out more about the LG Nexus 5 since it made an accidental appearance in the video for Google’s KitKat statue unveiling earlier this week. Fortunately for us, you can always rely on the FCC to tell the world about a secret, unreleased product weeks ahead of its official unveiling.

Codenamed the “D820,” the new device will have a 5-inch display, LTE connectivity, and a speedy Snapdragon 800 processor.

Google announced Android 4.4 KitKat on Tuesday, and it has become tradition for the company to erect a new statue on the lawn of its Mountain View headquarters with every major Android release. So we weren’t surprised to see the search giant upload a video of the statue’s unveiling to YouTube.

However, we were surprised to see what looks like Google’s next-generation Nexus smartphone towards the end of the video.

Looking for a terrific, contract-free smartphone that won’t cost you a fortune? Then look no further than the Nexus 4. Google has today slashed $100 off its price tag, so the 8GB model is now just $199 from $299, and the 16GB model is now just $249 from $349.

You won’t find another smartphone with these specifications this cheap.
