The T-Mobile myTouch 4G was one of the prettiest Android devices I have seen over the past year and now we see that T-Mobile is bringing that device with a slider QWERTY keyboard in the myTouch 4G Slide. The myTouch 4G Slide may also have the best camera from HTC, which is an area they have traditionally been quite weak in compared to other smartphone manufacturers. I don’t think it can match what Nokia is doing with their cameras and the claim on the T-Mobile site that it is the “most advanced camera of any smartphone” may be a bit of a marketing phrase. Then again, I will have to give the 8 megapixel shooter a try and see for myself since I do own the Nokia N8.

The First Glasses Free 3D Smartphone

Posted by arm On June - 27 - 2011

It was expected that LG’s Thrill 4G would be the first 3D smartphone to hit the U.S. mobile market, but HTC‘s EVO 3D hit shelves first, going on sale last Friday for all Sprint customers. It boasts a slew of high-end features, including a 4.3-inch touchscreen display with 540 x 960 qHD resolution, 1.2Ghz Qualcomm Snapdragon dual-core processor, 3G and 4G connectivity, and Android 2.3 Gingerbread with HTC Sense. But obviously, the best part about this new device is its three-dimensional capabilities.

The EVO 3D has two 5-megapixel cameras situated nicely on the rear, which allows you to capture photos and videos in 3D and view them on the autostereoscopic screen without special glasses, looking similar to the Nintendo 3DS portable gaming system. You can also view downloaded content formatted in 3D, as well as stream 3D content wirelessly to a 3D TV. The cameras can record video in 720p, both in 2D and 3D. Check out the video below to see it in action.

Samsung Nexus S 4G

Posted by arm On June - 26 - 2011

Android phones just keep getting better. They still have some of the same problems, but the phones are increasingly becoming more powerful and user-friendly. One of the most recent to hit the market is the Nexus S 4G from Samsung. It’s available from Sprint for $149.99 with a two-year contract. The Nexus S 4G is a beautiful gadget with a sleek black casing that frames a 4-inch Super AMOLED screen. The smartphone has two cameras: one is a 5 mega-pixel camera on the back and the other is a VGA camera facing from the front of the phone. The Nexus S 4G doesn’t have a slot.This phon e handles Sprint’s 4G network, which is the next generation of connection speeds.

The Nexus S 4G runs the Android 2.3 Gingerbread OS. My favorite is the improved keyboard. It feels faster, more responsive, and makes coping and pasting a little easier. I actually had to search the internet to find other changes Gingerbread brought to the Android platform. The Nexus S 4G is among the best Android phones I’ve tested ever. It looks great and features an improved version of the Android platform. Aspiring photographers will find it can take some really great HD videos. I wish it had a memory card slot and that the camera did better with bad lighting. But its ability to handle 3G and 4G gives it a longer life and gets you ready for when Phoenix makes the Sprint 4G.

Sprint launched its first Android tablet yesterday compatible with the new 4G “Wi-Max” network. The gadget is also the first Android tablet out there capable of running Netflix. Unfortunately, despite being first in line for 4G and Netflix, Sprint’s HTC Evo View tablet ships with the older version of Android: 2.3 (Gingerbread), not version 3.0 (Honeycomb). A future software update will bring Honeycomb, the version of Android made specifically for tablets, to the device.

That speaks to a larger problem of “fragmentation” on Android devices: the inability to implement the platform consistently across multiple types of hardware made by different manufacturers. Fragmentation is also the key reason why Android tablets have been slow getting popular video-streaming services such as Netflix and Hulu onto its devices. It presents a problem for making sure that Digital Rights Management technologies — or applications that make sure you aren’t ripping and recording any of the streaming content you’re watching — function across all devices.

Last month, the International Agency for Research on Cancer, a branch of the World Health Organization, declared cellphone radiation “possibly carcinogenic to humans.” The scientific evidence linking cellphone use to brain cancer isn’t conclusive, the agency said, but there is some evidence that brain cancer rates are higher among people with the highest levels of cellphone exposure, and cellphone users should take precautions until more is known.

Now, some scientists are claiming that certain types of cellphones could be more “possibly carcinogenic” than others. “I’ve been telling friends and family members to seriously consider switching to CDMA [cellphones] if they’re using GSM cellphones,” said Joel Moskowitz, the director of the Center for Family and Community Health at the University of California, Berkeley. CDMA, or Code Division Multiple Access, is the type of cellular network used by the phone companies Verizon and Sprint. GSM, or Global System for Mobile Communications, is the type used by AT&T and T-Mobile.

Google loses market share in Android Phones segment

Posted by arm On June - 23 - 2011

Google’s Android share of the smartphone OS market fell slightly in the bigin of this year. Android’s share of the market was at 52.4 per cent at the end of last year and had dropped to 49.5 per cent by March. Apple’s iPhone increased its share of the market over the same period, growing from 17.2 per cent to 29.5 per cent. RIM’s BlackBerry continued the steady decline which has been ongoing for more than a year, dropping from 37.8 per cent of the market a year ago to just 13.8 per cent in March. It’s hard to draw firm conclusions from Android’s decline over one three month period but at least one analyst has described it as the beginning of the end. Though a new iPhone is widely expected to launch in September, it had been told by an unnamed source that Apple would launch a new iPhone with a “radical new case design” as early as mid-August.

Tablet war is still going on

Posted by arm On June - 22 - 2011

The tablet space is the most active in the mobile world with just about every company trying to cash in on the iPad success. BlackBerry maker Research In Motion has been beleaguered lately over poor performance and was hoping its PlayBook tablet would turn things around, but a report indicates that is not the case. Meanwhile Amazon is rumored to be readying its own tablet for market, which has industry watchers ready to scrutinize its first entry into the world’s tablet market. Android tablet producers are vying for sales to compete not only with the iPad but with each other for a piece of the slim pie. While Android tablet providers jostle for sales, Apple just keeps selling iPads like hotcakes.

Nokia unveils Meego phone

Posted by arm On June - 21 - 2011

Nokia announced four new phones at an event in Singapore today, three aimed at emerging markets and one at collectors of esoteric dead-end mobile hardware. Nokia’s long awaited debut Meego phone, the N9, was finally unveiled. Meego was Nokia’s high-end future platform until four months ago. No new Symbian phones were announced, and Elop pronounced himself more hopeful that a Windows model will appear by the end of the year. Nokia has several fires to fight, and one is its dramatic crash in emerging markets, which it had complacently thought were gratefully in its pocket. Three new touch screen models based on S40 were announced, all called C2, two of which support dual-SIMs.

Apple postponed the launch of its iPhone 5

Posted by arm On June - 20 - 2011

Apple delayed the launch of its iPhone 5 to whet its smartphone offering in order to counter the threat from the new breed of Androids like Samsung Galaxy S2 and HTC Sensation. However, it seems the delay has given its competitor Google sufficient time to prep its next version of Nexus phone- the Nexus 4G.  The arrival of Nexus 4G does not bode well for Apple. Currently Apple is lagging behind the Android breed of superphones like Samsung Galaxy S2, HTC Sensation and Motorola Atrix which arrived after the CES Las Vegas event. Apple’s current iPhone 4 looks anemic in terms of specifications when compared to these superphones. Thus, Apple has delayed the launch of iPhone 5 as the phone is in need of significant hardware changes in order to compete with these phones.

Google already promised at the launch of Google Wallet that NFC technology would be coming to more Android handhelds beyond the Nexus S. Sony Ericsson is helping out. Answering the call for near field communications chips is NXP, which will provide “complete embedded, secure NFC solutions.” Specifically, Sony Ericsson will be implementing NXP’s NXP PN65 NFC solution for its upcoming Android-based handhelds intended for featuring mobile payments support. That NFC option will also include a radio controller, the typical NFC software and embedded security measures such as advanced cryptography.

However, neither Sony Ericsson nor Google have announced specific smartphone models that will sport this NFC power. It also has not been announced when we could expect to see these Android-based Sony Ericsson mobile devices ready to make purchases via Google Wallet. If Google plans to roll out its Wallet mobile payments service nationwide this year (beyond the beta tests in New York City and San Francisco this summer), then the Goog is going to need many more NFC-enabled Android smartphones swirling around to make it a success. And for Sony Ericsson, this could be a real coup for the cell phone maker. It’s Android handsets haven’t been complete smash hits in the past, and the Xperia Play already has enough pressure riding on it. If Sony Ericsson can produce some awesome and competitive smartphones at the right price point running Android 2.3 or higher with NFC on-board, then it could beat out other mobile device manufacturers that are likely working NFC-enabled phone themselves.

Mobile operator T-Mobile announced it is doubling the speed of its 4G network in 41 additional markets. Now, customers in 96 markets across the country have access to T-Mobile’s HSPA+ 42 network, enabling faster 4G speeds, as well as increased network capacity and reliability. T-Mobile’s 4G network (HSPA+ 21) already reaches more than 200 million Americans in 184 markets.

Customers can choose from more than a dozen 4G devices, including 4G Smartphones like the Galaxy S 4G, the T-Mobile myTouch 4G, the T-Mobile G2 with Google, the T-Mobile Sidekick 4G, the G2x with Google, HTC Sensation 4G and the upcoming BlackBerry Bold 9900.

Nokia Forays Into Dual SIM Mobile Market

Posted by arm On June - 16 - 2011

In a move which may revive the declining fortunes of Nokia, the Finnish cell phone manufacturer has forayed into the already crowded dual-SIM market. The challenge Nokia faces here is not only from established players in the market but also from dual SIM cell phones imported from China. During the launch of the dual-SIM handsets, Prakash Katama Director, Chennai Factory of Nokia India said that though the company is a late-entrant in the dual-SIM market yet it expects to grab the top slot with its affordable pricing.

It is to be noted that of late there has been a tremendous demand for dual-SIM handsets in the country with users looking forward to keep one number for personal use while the other one is kept for professional usage. At the same time keeping dual-SIM phones allows users to use one for data and service while the other is for voice and SMS. Both the dual-SIM handsets launched by Nokia are equipped with services called Nokia Life Tools which gives consumers information on a wide range of topics such as agriculture, education, entertainment, healthcare etc. A recent report regarding dual SIM handsets was quoted by Mr Katama which said that dual-SIM phones made up nearly 40% of the mobile market.
