The Asus PB278Q

What you should know: 
The Asus PB278Q ($699.99 list) is a 27-inch PLS monitor, and it does indeed deliver very good color quality and wide viewing angles. It also offers a plethora of features, including multiple video ports, a multi-adjustable stand, and WQHD (2,560-by-1,440) resolution. It doesn't include any USB ports, however, and at $700 it's a certainly more expensive than a similarly sized TN-based monitor.

What it offers: 
The Asus PB278Q is a well equipped 27-inch monitor based on Plane to Line Switching (PLS) panel technology. You?ll pay more for this technology but receive awesome performance and a rich feature set in return.

The advantage: 
Great color quality. Lots of video ports. Ergonomic stand. Wide viewing angles.

The unfavorable: 
A bit pricey. No auto-pivot function. No USB ports.

The ZTE Warp Sequent

What you should know: 
The general shape is the same; it has a slab construction, rounded corners, and top and bottom edges that curve slightly outward. But this handset's smaller, measuring 5 inches tall, 2.56 inches wide, and 0.39 inches thick. Weighing in at 4.6 ounces, it's not heavy, but it feels solid and dense. Though it's a snug fit in small jean pockets, it's comfortable to hold.
On the left are a Micro-USB port and a volume rocker, while up top are a 3.5mm headphone jack and sleep/power button.
On the back's top left corner is a 5-megapixel camera with an LED flash, and on the bottom are two small slits (though only the left opens to the audio speaker). The thin plastic back plate features a striped, rectangular indentation in the middle, which slightly helps with grip. You can pry the plate off to access the microSD card slot and 1,650mAh lithium ion battery.
Above the display are an LED notification light, a 1.3-megapixel front-facing camera, and an in-ear speaker. Below it are three hotkeys for back, home, and menu.
The 4.3-inch qHD touchscreen is, again, one of the better ones I've seen on a ZTE phone.

What it offers: 
The Warp Sequent's impressive performance and decent midrange specs is a step up for ZTE, but its sluggish 3G speeds and price don't merit a buy.
The advantage: 
The ZTE Warp Sequent has a sturdy construction, delivers a nearly skinless Android 4.0 experience, and has a decent 5-megapixel camera.
The unfavorable: 
Boost's Warp Sequent runs only on 3G, and its camera's shutter speed is slow.

The Canon PowerShot G15

What you should know: 
The G15 improves a bit on the G12's performance, though still not enough to consider it "fast." It takes about 2.3 seconds to power on, focus, and shoot, which is relatively typical for this type of camera. The biggest boost is in bright-light autofocus, bringing its shot lag down to 0.2 second; in dim light it remains relatively unchanged at 0.6 second. Image processing remains its weak point, though once again it's not notably slower than most of its competitors: two sequential JPEGs take about 1.9 seconds, rising to 2.6 seconds for raw and 2.9 with flash enabled.
The G15 maintains the line's excellent photo quality, although it still doesn't quite match that of Sony's RX100.

What it offers: 
The Canon PowerShot G15 continues the G-series tradition of solid advanced compacts, but doesn't rank as best in class by any particular measure.

The advantage: 
In addition to a great, fast lens, the Canon PowerShot G15 has a nice, streamlined shooting design and produces very nice photos.

The unfavorable: 
It's humbled by a somewhat limited feature set and ho-hum performance.

The price:
$499 to 542.00

The Samsung Galaxy Camera

What you should know: 
Like many point-and-shoots, the more light you have when shooting with the Galaxy, the better your photos will be. If you're considering this for daylight shooting, you'll likely be very satisfied with the results.
Video quality is very good and the optical image stabilization is certainly nice to have if you're tired of the shaky clips from your smartphone. However, like its photos, video does get softer and noisier the less light you have. The zoom does work while recording movies, but it was a bit jerky when moving in and out.

The camera does have a continuous shooting option that can fire off up to 20 shots at up to 4 frames per second.

What it offers: 
Outside of its relatively high cost of ownership and average point-and-shoot picture quality, the Samsung Galaxy Camera definitely delivers the shoot-and-share experience of a smartphone with the features of a compact camera.

The advantage: 
The Samsung Galaxy Camera's feature set is tough to beat, combining the power of a high-end Android OS 4.1 Jelly Bean device with a giant HD-resolution touch screen and the 21x zoom and 16-megapixel resolution of a compact camera.

The unfavorable: 
If you're looking for great picture quality for the Galaxy Camera's $500 price tag, you're probably going to be disappointed. Its battery life is fairly short. To get the most from it, you'll want to pay for a monthly data plan.

The Asus PadFone 2

What you should know: 
The PadFone 2 runs Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich (ICS), with minimal software tweaks from Asus. This is as close as you can get to the stock ICS experience, although Asus has thrown in some proprietary apps such as SuperNote (a note-taking app) and WebStorage (for cloud storage). PadFone 2 users get 50GB of WebStorage space free, which is handy as there's no microSD card slot on the handset. I also found App Backup (to back up and restore installed apps and app data) and App Locker (to protect installed apps with a password) quite useful.

What it offers: 
The PadFone 2 runs on the latest quad-core Qualcomm Snapdragon S4 processor clocked at 1.5GHz and 2GB of RAM, which delivered zippy performance, even while multitasking. With an Adreno 320 GPU, graphics-intensive games such as Shine Runner ran smoothly without juddering.

The advantage: 
The PadFone 2 Dock Station features a 5,000mAh battery, which is utilized first when docked. In the "Intelligent mode" setting, the Station is even able to charge the PadFone 2 when it is low on power.
With heavier usage of viewing videos, playing games, and taking photos, the PadFone 2 still managed to muster up about 16 hours on its own.

The unfavorable: 
Browsing speeds are not blazing fast.

The Nokia Lumia 810

What you should know: 
Its thick, heavy, slab like form is hard to love. But since beauty is only skin-deep, T-Mobile customers will find hearty hardware and software features within.
Standing 5 inches tall by 2.7 inches wide by 0.4 inch thick, the Lumia 810 is shorter than handsets such as Samsung's Galaxy S3, but also much thicker. It weighs a chunky 5.1 ounces.
A bright, colorful 4.3-inch AMOLED screen comes with a WVGA resolution (800x480 pixels.)
Above the screen you'll find the 1.2-megapixel front-facing camera, and just below it, touch sensitive navigation buttons sit on an overly-tall bezel.
The Lumia 810 has an 8-megapixel camera with branded Carl Zeiss optics, but all you really need to know is that it takes some nice shots.

What it offers: 
Nokia Lumia 810 makes for a practical smartphone choice, but if you're looking for something thin and light, the HTC Windows Phone 8X is one better option.

The advantage: 
Nokia's Lumia 810 has decent call quality and a nice helping of extra software that differentiates it from other Windows phones. It's also one of the first Windows phones with external storage.

The unfavorable: 
Bulky smartphone has an uninspiring build and is more expensive than AT&T's higher-end Lumia 920.Source
