LG Chocolate black set

LG is bringing in the big guns - they announced a successor of the extremely popular Black Label series pioneer - LG Chocolate. The original Chocolate was the most popular phone in LG's history, selling over 21 million handsets, and so understandably its reincarnation is greeted with excitement.

The new LG Chocolate is set to be fourth in their fashion series. It will be designed by the same team that created the original Chocolate and, as they say, it will be "a disruptive force in conventional mobile screens". It's official unveiling is scheduled for August, with a promise of more information and images. For now, there's very little of both.

The silhouette of the new LG Chocolate

What we have is artsy, very dark photos that give a murky glimpse at the silhouette of the phone. It's not entirely clear but it seems that the disrupting of conventional screens will be in the name of maximizing usability and maintaining a minimalist-inspired style. Translation - "it's going to be an iPhone killer". The new Chocolate's appeal will be boosted in no small part by the exclusive Label club Black membership.

Now, for a quick game of "strange rumors". The model number will be BL40 (though that may change) and will probably support HSDPA (not surprising). The screen is said to have an extremely peculiar aspect ratio of 21:9 and a resolution of 800x345 pixels. That is quite wide, much wider than your typical HDTV. How this ties with "maximizing usability" (if that's even true) we don't know , but it's sure to come with its own set of advantages and burdens. Another rumored spec, one that's less iffy is a 5-megapixel camera.

Black Label Chocolate set

LG are clearly on the move these days, though kind of settling down after the high-riding Louvre and new Black Label Chocolate. Affordable messaging is the game and the LG GW300 is keen to play along with full QWERTY keyboard.

Motorola ROKR ZN50 is also the first Moto to have the new Motorola panorama interface which is featuring 3 homescreens, that you can freely fill up with the load of widgets available.

Motorola ROKR also fares pretty decently in terms of features. It sports a 3.2-inch 256K TFT touchscreen with a 16:9 aspect ratio and a resolution of 240 x 427 pixels. It also comes complete with a 3 megapixel autofocus shooter, built-in GPS receiver and support for stereo Bluetooth and HSDPA.

Sony Ericsson XPERIA Rachael shows

We got another load of official Sony Ericsson photos of the new XPERIA member. The Rachel is this time dressed in snow-white and it looks a whole lot better this way, we might add.

What is even more exciting is that along with the official shots that have obviously popped up a little prematurely, we also received a short video-demo of the Sony Ericsson Rachael UI.

The original resolution of the video is 852 x 480 pixels, which suggests that this will also be the resolution of the Rachael display. Coming with the sweet 16:9 aspect ratio this is the highest resolution screen we have seen so far on a mobile phone.

12 megapixel Samsung M8910 Pixon12

Introduction

Following our photoshoot teaser with the M8910 Pixon12 yesterday we are ready to invite you on a second date with this promising cameraphone. This time we hope to show its other side - the one that doesn't necessarily revolve around the camera functionality.

You've all seen that while the gap between cameraphones and the dedicated digicams seemed huge a couple of years ago, it's already closing in fast. The Samsung M8910 Pixon12 certainly isn't a full-time replacement for a camera enthusiast as it lacks the optical zoom and some customization options but it might just do a pretty good on quite a lot of occasions. And the best camera is the one that you always have on you.

We are sure the both flashes will be temptation for many of you especially when the xenon-featured phones were almost forgotten in the last year. The huge count of megapixels plus the wide-angle lens and tons of camera features are something camera geeks can't and won't miss just like that

Samsung M8910 Pixon12 at a glance:

  • General: GSM 850/900/1800/1900 MHz, UMTS 900/2100 MHz, HSDPA 7.2Mbps, HSUPA
  • Form factor: Touchscreen bar
  • Dimensions: 108 x 53 x 13.8 mm, 120g

  • Connectivity: Wi-Fi, Bluetooth 2.1 with A2DP, standard microUSB port, GPS receiver with A-GPS, TV out

S60 Nokia E75 getting IM client


Nokia Beta Labs have just published a new version of Nokia Messaging app, which now allows desktop-like instant messaging on a Nokia smartphone along with the regular email features.

Only Nokia E75 will get the application for now but Nokia promise to add support for more devices as soon as possible.

The new Nokia Messaging promises real desktop-like chat experience allowing you to keep in touch with friends and family throughout various third-party IM networks.

Also enabled are background notifications of new incoming messages which show up whilst the app is minimized.

Since the new application has just seen daylight for the first time only Yahoo! Messenger and Ovi chat are supported, however, the supported communities list should continue growing.

An interesting fact is that Nokia will probably go as far as charging for the app the owners of certain S60 devices.

Nokia E75 owners however get a lifetime subscription to the Nokia Messaging service and all E75 owners can download it right away.

How to Turn your T-Mobile G1 into multi touch

Close window

Well, well, what do we have here? A T-Mobile G1 with the new HTC Sense UI. HTC Hero is currently the only HTC device featuring the impressive new UI and even though HTC will reportedly offer it to their other handsets, all T-Mobile Android phones won't be on that list at all. However, some Italians managed to run a ported version of the UI called SuperHERO on a T-Mobile G1/HTC Dream.

If you want to give it a go, you'll need to flash your T-Mobile G1 with the SuperHERO ROM (see the source at the end of the article). The software includes a part of the real Hero's firmware. Along with the sexy looking user interface you'll also have multi-touch support enabled much like on the Hero.

Samsung Omnia II upgraded to Windows Mobile 6.5


Microsoft couldn't help themselves but brag that the Samsung Omnia II running Windows Mobile 6.5 will be available through Mobilkom Austria exclusively starting late September. They will be the first Austrian mobile operator to get the new OS.

It's yet unclear if the other countries will be as lucky as Austria and get the Omnia II running WinMo 6.5 straight out of the box. The official announcement stated that the phone will be available with Windows Mobile 6.1, which could be subsequently upgraded to 6.5. At least now we know for sure that this upgrade will come no later than September.

They official press release of Mobikom also states that the Omnia II sports the "biggest OLED display on a mobile device". And it does, the Omnia II just manages to outdo its sibling - the Omnia HD, which also has a 3.7" OLED display. The different aspect ratios lead to slightly different surface area but only just.

Still, it's an impressive display as we saw in our preview. And with 7.2 Mbps HSDPA and 5.76 HSUPA plus Wi-Fi make the big touchscreen with WVGA resolution a fast portal to the Internet. The camera is no wimp either - 5MP with autofocus and D1 video recording is top of the line for Windows Mobile handsets.

Now might be a good time to clear out that the 8MP-sporting Omnia II units that appeared on some hands-on videos online are only prototypes and Samsung do not currently plan an 8MP version of the handset.

The Omnia II powered by an 800MHz CPU with dedicated graphics chip, which makes it one of the speediest WinMo devices. It is also a champ at storage with up to 16GB of internal storage and support for up to 32GB microSD cards.

GPS, DivX/XviD support out of the box, not to mention the 3D games and fancy 3D interface round of the Samsung Omnia II to be a geek's dream. The 3.5 mm audio jack and microUSB, which was recently picked as Europe's standard charger plug, are also greatly appreciated.

Unfortunately, there isn't any info about pricing in the press release. Anyway, we respectfully envy the geeks of Austria and hope carriers in other countries will pick up the Samsung Omnia II soon.

Double RAM of 256MB in Apple iPhone 3GS

Close window

Introduction

The Apple iPhone 3GS is probably not the next revolutionary iPhone as you might have expected it. But the performance boost, the sharper camera with video and the purportedly improved battery life certainly make of the current iPhone (3GS or whatever it is called this year) a much more balanced smartphone, one that you could probably wave in front your geeky friends more proudly. Well, you'd still get the chilling disapproving look, but at least you won't feel as embarrassed as you used to.

The truth about the iPhone is this - perhaps about 20 million people around the globe are quoted as having given in to the iPhone temptation ever since the frenzy started. Now, 2 years later, the rest of the modern world is already sick to death of hearing all about it.

Once ground-breaking, but still as controversial and inspiring as ever, the iPhone lineup has just received its latest offspring. Meet the iPhone 3GS, where "S" can mean a lot of things, but without a doubt covers all that's needed for "Speed".

Close window

iPhone 3GS advantages over iPhone 3G:

  • A faster 600MHz CPU and double the RAM at 256MB
  • Noticeably faster performance
  • Faster network speeds of HSDPA 7.2Mbps
  • 3.2 megapixel auto focus camera with VGA@30fps video recording, touch focus with subject tracking, macro mode from as close as 10 cm
  • Double the storage space - 3GS is selling in 16GB and 32GB versions
  • Digital compass with automatic map orientation in Maps app
  • Better audio quality (as recorded and analyzed in our office)
  • Louder loudspeaker results (with performance gains primarily in music playback)
  • Purportedly better battery life
  • Oleophobic display coating supposed to make fingerprints easier to clean
  • Voice Control, speaker independent. Can be use to call a phone number, play music by song/album/artist name, shuffle music
  • Built-in support for Nike+ jogging system
  • Text-to-speech feature called VoiceOver is included in the new Accessibility menu
  • System-wide Screen Zoom is also included in the Accessibility menu

official firmware update of Nokia N97









Less than a month has passed since the Nokia N97 hit the shelves and here comes its first official firmware update. Bringing a whole load of bugfixes this new firmware should have a pretty positive impact on user experience.

The new version of the N97 firmware is already available in several countries with worldwide availability coming in the following days. So if you are a proud owner of a shiny N97 you might check out if it's already available for you.

According to Nokia, the most significant fixes that the new firmware brings are in the software stability, especially email, imaging, USB detection, widget stability and display transitions. We also noticed that the Ovi client is automatically installed to encourage users to use Nokia's side project.

You can get the new firmware as a FOTA update or you can rely on the good old Nokia Software updater and download and apply it through USB connection.

Here goes the changelog of the Nokia N97 latest firmware:

* Ovi store client now embedded in the core system image

USB detection error fix

Price of Toshiba TG01 now in just 150 euro


Slowly, but surely the Toshiba TG01 is becoming available through carriers in different countries. By 9 July you could add the UK to the list of lucky countries that have access to the first Snapdragon handset following Spain, Japan and Germany.

The Toshiba TG01 is already available in Spain through Movistar, and as we reported a while back, O2 Germany snatched an exclusive deal to offer the phone in Germany. It should have launched a few days ago but O2's online store still has it as "Coming soon". The prices are up though - 150 euro with a contract and 500 euro commitment-free.

The UK will also get on the TG01 action in just a week, though there's no mention of which carrier will get it. Pricing is unknown too, but we guess we'll learn more on the 9 July.

We've covered the Toshiba TG01's overwhelming features time and again; you can read our preliminary thoughts here. We'll just mention the three most striking features, we can't resist - 1GHz CPU, 4.1" WVGA touchscreen, 9.9 mm thick.

Palm Pre now support iTunes also

Now hardly anyone will be totally shocked about that but when it gets official, it can still make it in the news. The hotly anticipated Palm Pre smartphone will sport iTunes support, once it appears on the market. This provides a simple and easy way (if you are using a Mac or you're just dependent on your iPhone/iPod infatuation) to transfer DRM-free music, photos and videos to your Palm Pre.

According to the company iTunes will have no trouble recognizing the Palm Pre, once you connect it to a computer through USB and choose the "media sync" option on the handset. From then on you can choose which media files to interchange as long as they are DRM-free.

The other good news is that the Palm Pre will also be able to act as a mass storage drive providing the easiest available way for loading content. Once connected to a computer using the USB cable, Pre will appear as a drive on the computer desktop. You can drag and drop music, photos or video files onto your Pre, or drag files from your Pre to the computer.

New video recording on iPhone 2009

The iPhone inabilities have been a matter of discussion at least as much as its virtues. Unfortunately, video recording (or better yet the lack of it) has often been a subject of criticism. But that will surely become a thing of the past since the developer's beta of iPhone OS 3.0 is supposedly sprinkled with clues that video recording will definitely be coming to the upcoming iPhone 2009.

It's this time of the year again, and with Apple's next announcement in June nearing, not a day goes by without some new iPhone rumors surfacing. Rumors are always to be taken with a pinch of salt, but this one seems as solid as a rock.

The iPhone 2009 is rumored to have a better 3.2 megapixel camera in store for us but no matter the megapixel count, it will almost certainly support video recording as the following camera screenshot reveals. Video recording has never been a part of the originally announced iPhone OS 3.0 new features, so it's highly possible that iPhone 2G and 3G will most probably be left out in the cold.

Review of Sony Ericsson W995

Convergence is the buzzword and the Cyber-shot Walkman affair-turned-marriage is busy producing offspring. And hey, the young Sony Ericsson W995 sure makes the first-born W902 look like a helpless orphan.

Easily the best equipped feature phone of the house, Sony Ericsson W995, still more popular as Hikaru, packs in all there is to find at the top of the company portfolio. The full set of connectivity options, the biggest screen on a Sony Ericsson feature phone to date, GPS, Wi-Fi and the great user interface make a sweet enough package on their own.

But in the case of W995 they're just the perfect background for the unprecedented blend of music and imaging. The Cyber-shot line is graciously lending its 8 megapixel triumph, while the music dowry includes the latest Walkman 4.0 player, with all the bare Walkman necessities such as Shake control and SensMe. And there's more to make it even sweeter. We called it a marriage and Sony Ericsson have taken due care of the wedding presents. We don't know what else to call the kickstand and the on-board 3.5 mm audio jack.

So Sony Ericsson W995 has it all, doesn't it? Now let's see if it gives it all.

Key features of BlackBerry Bold 9000

There we go folks, it's a BlackBerry grand slam at the arena and we're set for another ride with RIM's finest. We guess this here Berry is neither Curve-hot nor Storm-inventive but it's Bold enough to say little and do much. Even without being the latest or greatest of RIM devices, the Bold 9000 is clearly the pinnacle of what BlackBerry stands for.

Moreover, the Bold 9000 is hardly a groundbreaking device outside the BlackBerry world but to Berry buffs it may be about as good as a mobile phone gets. Sporting flawless connectivity, a magnificent screen and one of the most comfortable QWERTY keyboards we have seen, the Bold 9000 is at the very least a great business gadget. Well then, it's business as usual on our end too so the BlackBerry Bold better get ready for one of our out-and-out reviews.

Key features of Sony Ericsson T707

Sony Ericsson T707 is a new addition to the T-series but it's nothing like the T-series as you know them. Not only is it the first flip in the bunch, it also has a different brief than virtually any other T-series handset. Codenamed Elle, Sony Ericsson T707 will be trying to please the ladies but maybe it's not as simple as just sticking that less a gadget, more an accessory label.

As one of the product designers claims, the Sony Ericsson T707 was inspired by rainbows and the array of paintjobs it will be released in will make sure it won't go unnoticed. The light effects, the stealthy external screen and the ripple-and-circle patterns inside give this otherwise modest mid-ranger a distinct personality and visual appeal.
