Those models you see prancing up and down the catwalk are sometimes pretty thin. Here, KAZAM have decided to do the same with their latest mobile offering – the Tornado 348. It's a handset which is just 5.15mm thick, which makes it the thinnest...

The Kazam Tornado 348 is an enviably slim smartphone and feels very well built too. Its specs are resolutely midrange but it's a decent performer and if it's let down a little by its under-par camera, at least the price is reasonable. ...

Is your phone in the Guinness Book of Records? The Kazam Tornado 348 is, by virtue of its extreme thinness, measuring just 5.15mm wide. Now, we all know that a thin phone doesn't make a great phone and if I were to ask you to list Kazam's previous...

Kazam Tornado 348 The Kazam Tornado 348 is a remarkable phone, but almost entirely because it's so slim. In other respects, it's just a bit too pedestrian for our liking. The screen looks less detailed than the 720p competition thanks to its OLED...

The Kazam Tornado 348 might be one of the thinnest phones around, but that aside it's a smartphone without a truly killer feature.

If you're looking for the thinnest and lightest smartphone possible then look no further than the Kazam Tornado 348. However, the design of this phone has a negative effect elsewhere and the phone falls down compared to rivals in terms of hardware and performance. The lack of expandable storage and 4G are stand out omissions. The Honor 6 outclasses it at the same price and the Nexus 5 is still a great deal for even less money.

For a fleeting moment, Kazam's new Tornado 348 held the title of ‘the world's thinnest smartphone' (until Oppo pulled the rug out from under its feet), but as you'll find out, being super svelte requires that you give up certain things…Arguably, the...

I got the chance to go hands-on with the latest handset. I'll be honest, upon reading the press release of the world's thinnest smartphone I had some horrific flashbacks to the recent iPhone 6 #BendGate. Images of snapped and broken iPhone 6 handsets...
