USA Electronics and Phone Recycling stats Q3 2014

Posted on October 15, 2014 by Jody

Hi all, following on our regular series, here’s our latest electronics and phone recycling statistics taken from the www.sellmycellphones.com site for the third quarter of the year (July – September 2014).

I have made the infographic larger in order to include some more statics, this time for the entire year, and quarter on quarter.

This section made some real interesting reading as there has been a huge boom across the industry when compared to quarter two.

I am sure that a contributing factor to the increase is undoubtedly the new handset releases from Samsung, HTC and Apple, no doubt that the release of the iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus played a significant part. Continue reading →

Kindle Fire HDX review

Posted on November 8, 2013 by Jody

We got our hands on one of these new beauties from Amazon the other day. Here’s our first impressions and our review of the Amazon Kindle Fire HDX tablet.

The Kindle Fire HDX that we tested was the 8.9inch version which began shipping a few days ago, there is also a 7 inch version available.
