Smartphones fit for the Chinese New Year
Traditionally, Chinese New Year symbolises a fresh start, and most people go about it by cleaning up the house, getting a haircut and new outfits for visiting relatives. Well, how about going all the way, with a new smartphone?
Lastly, dong, dong, dong, chiang. Dong chiang, dong chiang. And now that the song is stuck in your head, we'll leave you with these five handsets that will fit in perfectly with the Chinese New Year. Be sure to also check out these eight apps to get for when you go visiting.
Why you should get this: If you don't want iOS or Android, how about a red Windows Phone 8 Lumia 1320?
Hands-on: As with any Lumia handset, the 1320 comes clad in Nokia's famed candy-colored hues: orange, yellow, black or white. It sports a polycarbonate chassis with a matte finish which I quite liked. Unlike the angular Lumia 1520, the 1320 has more rounded corners, giving it a softer look as well as being a bit more comfortable in the palm.
