According to Nokia, one of the reasons for rejection of Symbian is a long-term development of running this OS devices. It is alleged that the creation of the device with Symbian needed 22 months, while the model with the release of Windows Phone is quite less than a year.

Of course, the main reason was not it, but the reduction in sales. In the first quarter Nokia managed to sell only 0.5 million devices running Symbian, whereas the Lumia smartphones running Windows Phone for the same period was 5.6 million units sold.

Xperia Z Ultra will get a 6.4-inch 1080p-display (Triluminos X-Reality), which, according to the source, rather than the tablet Xperia Z.

The great disadvantage of the Chinese smartphone can now be called wishy-washy design. Such devices typically have a mass availability and offer a lot for its price. But most of all they lack is just visual appeal. Huawei, one of the five largest manufacturers of smartphones in the world, is going to change the perception of the Chinese consumer devices. The company has aimed at the premium segment of the smartphone market, where the key is the U.S. Apple.

Earlier, the head of Huawei Richard S Samsung recommended to use in the production of high-quality materials smartphones and Apple blamed the lack of innovation, which, in his opinion, “went along with Jobs.”

The exhibition CES Huawei showed smartphone with the biggest screen in the world. Screen size Ascend Mate is already 6.1 inches. Ultra-thin Ascend P6 with the same high build quality has a great chance of success.

Then, it announced that the hardware would cost $129 (this is on top of the subscription fee, which allows users to play as many games from the catalog as they wish, Netflix-style), and that it had added a bunch of games from several developers to the line-up.

Today, the company is announcing the ability to include iPhone and iPad applications under the GamePop service umbrella, signing up ‘Fieldrunners’ maker Subatomic Studios for starters.

Pelican has a camera module that is presented some time ago, which consists of 16 elements. These are arranged in a 4 x 4 and each row rectangle takes on a color. Why then is it 4? It’s simple: Then it is still possible to adjust the focus after the fact.

That is, each row is focused on another object and thereby but still created a complete picture. In addition, the noise is to be reduced by this technology.

Now, a Nokia employee has confirmed in an interview that the cameras come into Pelican future smartphones. In the past, there was often a problem with the processing power of smart phones, but this no longer seems currently to be the problem.

In addition to the Pelican camera modules are also finite Lumia smartphones come with dual SIM slot. These are for Germany, not so interesting, but quite in demand in other countries of the world. It would be nice even if Nokia would have strengthened a microSD slot in the high-end models into smaller models you have this already, but the Lumia 925 lacks it again.

Probably most important of Asha 501 it is its condition of herald of the new operating system of Nokia for cheap mobile phones. Its name is Asha Platform and it is a version of modernized S40 with several new features concerning interface and management of tasks, fruit of the acquisition of a Danish company called SmarterPhone. Besides counting on all a new collection of icons, Asha Platform has been optimized (optimized) to be controlled by means of sweepings with the finger, having a manager of tasks in the bar superior and recopilatorio where you will find the last conducted battles so that you do not have to be looking for icons or apps in the main screen.

At a level more technician, this rectangular and colouristic Asha (he will offer himself less with anything than six different tonalities) counts on a CPU to 1 only 32 GHz and Megabyte of RAM; very far as you can see of Lumia range. Its screen, of capacitive type, is formed by a LCD panel of low resolution, whereas the camera including can capture 3 static images megapíxeles and VGA video. All the circuitry is protected by a detachable housing “in the heat of the moment”, under which one double groove SIM is hidden, MicroSD reader (with support for cards of up to 32 GB; it comes including a card from 4 GB with the telephone) and a 1,200 battery of mAh that confers to 501 Asha an autonomy of 48 days in delay or 17 hours from voice. Nothing, but that nothing badly. If what you look for are his levels, we spoke of 99.2 xs 58 xs 12.1 mm and 98 grams of weight.

And the price… how is everything? quite Then reasonable. Nokia will commercialize Asha 501 to a price of 99 dollars. We do not have the amount in Euros, but we know that it will be able to be acquired as of June in more than 90 markets anywhere in the world. Practically the only absent country of the list will be the United States, where Nokia is overturned to the 100% with Lumia range.

If you like what you see, you do not separate of the screen. Soon we will return with live photos and impressions, directly from New Delhi.

How also can under Android Google Now process also language petition under iOS, ask can so that one for example “customs I this weekend an umbrella”? or “who plays in Oblivion with?”. In the attitudes, one yet can select moreover, which information one would like to have represented everyone. These are designated as a “cards”, that one can push like under Android very simply also again away. The search App for iOS is naturally as always free, you find it in Apples App Store. A video of Google Now for iOS gives it in the connection.

iFixit thus got Galaxy S4 and neither nor two, decided to pass it on the table of autopsy. It is that new the standard bearer of Samsung is very easy to open and to dismount: only 11 standard screws maintain the case in place, and it is obviously very simple to reach the battery by withdrawing the back frontage simply.

Galaxy S4 appears appreciably close to Galaxy SIII, as well in term of design as of possibility of repair. It thus bails out excellent note of 8/10, which will undoubtedly make the pet of the bricolos of it.

The smartphone lays out of a screen 4.3 inches into 720 p, a processor quad core Snapdragon 600 given rhythm to 1.7 Ghz, 2 Go of RAM and a APN of 13 MP. Characteristics more than honest which give a smartphone to… 320 dollars. Not astonishing that the terminal left also quickly.

Sales which are also the occasion for the Chinese manufacturer Xiaomi to be made a great hit of pub, in order to sell even more MI-2S.
