Not content with offering you robot companionship through Siri, the iPhone of the future could also offer to buy your sandwiches. Using NFC tech that is, and also using your money.

That's just one of the dog-and-bone-related news stories covered in this week's Phone News roundup, in which we distil the week's mobile happenings into a single fruity shot. Hit play on the video above to find out what's been happening in the tech industry's most exciting sector.

You'll also get the scoop on Windows Phone 8, the latest version of Microsoft's mobile operating system. As well as a brand new homescreen we'll be welcoming in a slew of beefed-up mobiles, thanks to Windows Phone 8's cooperation with dual-core processors and 720p screens.

That should be plenty to make you sound knowledgeable next time pub talk turns to tech, but if you fancy learning more, examine our exhaustive guide to Windows Phone 8.
