New iPhones Announced, Battle of the Smartwatches, Hands-on the Note 3 and More!

It took just nine days from Labor Day and the unofficial end of summer for the tech world to get back into full swing, with a series of high-profile announcements capped off with the unveiling of not one, but two new iPhone models: the Apple iPhone 5S and Apple iPhone 5C.

Of course, if you've been following TechnologyGuide, you'll know that the real tech news has been coming out of Berlin at IFA, where Samsung, Sony, Toshiba, Lenovo, Asus, Acer and others all revealed major new smartphones, laptops, and two devices that may mark the coming smartwatch revolution: the Samsung Galaxy Gear and the Sony SmartWatch 2.

The TechnologyGuide team has spent time with both devices, and come away a bit skeptical of their potential. We've already claimed that the Galaxy Gear is more of a high-end accessory than it is a smartwatch, and we've lamented the limitations of the SmartWatch 2 hardware.

Compared side by side, they both certainly have their strengths and show the device category's potential. Find out which smartwatch TG thinks is the best, as well as all the news on the new iPhone 5S and 5C, and the devices announced at IFA 2013.
