With the amount of mobile phones available on the market today, it can definitely be confusing when it comes to purchasing a new handset – how can you be sure that the new models have all the features that you want? Well, throughout this article we’ll be reviewing three fairly new devices: the Huawei Ascend P7, Lumia 1320, and the Oppo Find 7.

Lumia 1320
Nokia is definitely a big brand in regards to mobile phones and has released reliable devices continuously – they are definitely trustworthy, but lets take a look at the features that you’ll find with the Lumia 1320.
Specifications – A decent performance phone but nothing too major, you’ll find a Krait 300 processor which is dual core and 1700 MHz.
Design – The phone has a very minimalistic design and the vast majority of the phone is basically the screen. The screen size is a whole 6 inches.
Camera – The rear-facing camera on this phone isn’t very good as it’s only 0.3-megapixels, however the standard camera is 5-megapixels which isn’t too bad.
Battery – This device has a huge battery that has a capacity of 3400 mAh. Allowing you to keep the phone on standby for approximately 28 days!
OS – This phone runs on Windows 8, which is quite rare as many phones now run on the Android OS.
Price – You can generally find this phone for around $300 to $350, a mid-range price tag.
Oppo Find 7
The Oppo Find 7 might not be as popular a model as some of the other devices such as the ones brought out my Samsung and Apple – but it definitely still a brilliant device with a lot of features. We’ll go into these in more detail below.
Specifications – This phone is very high performance and has a Krait 400 quad core 2500 MHz processor, alongside 3GB of RAM and 32GB of internal storage.
Design – The design is probably one of the best aspects of this phone, it has a sleek design and truly conveys a sense of luxury. It also features a 5.5 inch screen and a very high resolution.
Camera – You’ll benefit from top of the range camera features; the phone has both a rear-facing and a front-facing camera which are 13-megapixels and 5-megapixels respectively.
Battery – The device has a 3000 mAh battery which is a huge capacity and will definitely allow you to keep the phone on for quite some time.

Price – The Find 7 is quite pricey at $500 to $600 but it’s fair to say that this is a reasonable price for such a well-designed device with a lot of features.
Conclusion
All the three of the devices listed above are very solid options but the best would have to be the Oppo Find 7 if you can afford the extra bit of money. The other two are also very good options, but they are severely lacking in many places making them an unreasonable choice for the majority of people.
