New 5 3’’ Android Smartphone for Next Year Neo N003

In addition to a wide range of 5-inch smartphones that emerged online recently (either leaked or in official announcements), we will also see devices with larger screens, indeed capable of taking on Galaxy Note and Galaxy Note II. 

One of these will be the Neo N003 handset from a Chinese mobile phone maker that plans on bringing its product to shelves next year.

The handset will sport a 5.3-inch touchscreen when launched, capable of delivering a 1280 x 720 pixels resolution, which should prove pretty good for a handset this size. 

Furthermore, it will feature a quad-core MT6589 CPU from MediaTek packed inside, clocked in at 1.3GHz and complemented by 1GB of RAM.

The new mobile phone will also include 8GB of internal memory, along with support for dual-SIM cards, with dual standby capabilities, it seems.

On the back, it will sport a 12-megapixel photo snapper, with support for advanced imaging capabilities, including full HD video recording. The handset is also said to arrive on shelves with a 3-megapixel front-facing camera that can enable users to make video calls while on the go. The phone is powered by a 3000mAh battery, which should provide users with enough usage time.

Neo N003 was also announced with Google’s Android 4.0.4 Ice Cream Sandwich operating system, though it might receive an upgrade to the newer platform release soon after its official launch.

This smartphone should arrive on shelves as the company’s flagship handset, though no specific info on when it will hit the market or at which price tag has been provided as of yet. Keep an eye on this space for additional details on the device.

New iPhone 5 Release Date 5 Ways it Will Beat the 4S

As the iPad 3 release date nears, rumors surrounding the next generation iPhone 5 have accelerated, with talk of new features, software and launch dates.

Release Date:

After great media hype, iPhone customers expected the iPhone 5 to be released in October 2011, but instead the iPhone 4S was unveiled. Popular rumors suggest the phone will be launched at the Worldwide Developers Conference in June, but is highly unlikely as Apple usually has its own event to launch new models of its products.  

A recent report in the Japanese blog Mocotakara, says that Apple will abandon its mid-year iPhone releases and instead switch to a 12-month launch model. This may mean we have to wait a little longer to get a glimpse of the new iPhone but the rumor seems realistic as the iPhone 4S launched in October last year instead of the usual iPhone mid-summer launch period.

Apples new iPhone will use bigger 4 6 inch display report

Sales of the iPhone, first introduced in 2007 with the touch screen template now adopted by its rivals, account for around half Apples total sales.

Apple has decided on the bigger 4.6-inch display for its next iPhone and started placing orders to its suppliers, the Maeil Business Newspaper said, quoting an unnamed industry source.

Its major display suppliers LG Display and Samsung Electronics Co declined to comment.

Samsung, which is also the biggest challenger to Apple in smartphones, uses 4.6-inch OLED display for its flagship Galaxy S II smartphone, introduced in April last year.

The high-definition "retina" display--containing several times as many pixels within the same area-- is used in the latest iPad released earlier this month.

The latest iPhone 4S was introduced in October last year.

The New iPhone and iPad Will Not Lanching At WWDC 2013

The New iPhone and iPad Will Not Lanching At WWDC 2013 - One analyst of Citigroup Global Securities issued a report stating that Apple will release the next generation iPhone and iPad in September / October and not in KeyNote WWDC 2013.

According to a trusted source, Apple will not introduce the iPad Mini 2 or iPhone 5S (iPhone 6) at the annual Worldwide Developers Conference event in June, the event instead preferring to focus on iOS 7.

The New iPhone and iPad Will Not Lanching At WWDC 2013

Jim Dalrymple from The Loop, already has a proven track record with Apple predictions, saying "Apple fans will not see the iPad or iPhone hardware on display during the WWDC keynote."

You Can Read the Important Point on an article written by Jim Dalrymple at The Loop Website :

The important thing to remember about WWDC is that it is a developer conference. It’s not a place where Apple is going to show off the newest iPhone or iPad . These are Apple’s flagship products and they demand separate events. Entire industries watch these products because they shape what will happen in the mobile space. They are that important.

So, don’t expect an iPhone or iPad at WWDC .

If not an iPhone or iPad, what can we expect in the way of hardware from the conference? Personally, I would look squarely to the Mac side of Apple’s product line.

The Vice President of the Worldwide Marketing, Philip Schiller, has been hinted iOS 7 will play a key role this year at the WWDC Keynote.

OS X 10.9 and iOS 7 will be the two main topics of discussion, although there has been a lot of discussion related to the radical changes lately. Dalyrmple seem not to think about such as drastic changes in iOS will suggest that. Instead, he predicted the "modernization" is similar to the way that OS X has been slowly brought into the current era.

Besides Mobile OS and hardware, Dalrymple also believe if Apple will introduce the new Mac hardware during WWDC keynote event on June 10. iMac, MacBook Pro and Mac Mini will get  Updates, and Apple should featuring redesign Mac Pro which has been long awaited.

All devices will run OS Xs New OS X 10.9, Apple will be displayed at WWDC event, Dalrymple said. He predicts that the new version of OS X will featuring broader integration with iCloud and improved syncronisasi with iOS device.

So, you do not expect the new iPhone or iPad at WWDC 2013. If you are smart enough and youll realize it does not make sense for The apple to release the company flagship product, in the event Developer.

New Thief game headed to PlayStation 4 and Xbox 720

Get your sneaking boots on: Square Enix and Eidos Montreal are bringing back the Thief series with a next-gen lick of paint, rebooting the series for a romp on PlayStation 4, PC and “other” next-generation consoles in 2014. Xbox 720, anyone?

From the makers of Deus Ex: Human Revolution, the new Thief game has been in development since at least 2009, and puts you back in the stealthy garbs of series lead Garrett in a first-person adventure in the darkly sinister medieval setting of The City. This time though, The City is under the rule of a tyrant named the Baron while the population is being battered by a plague.

The new game is set to offer you a number of open paths for you to guide Garret through, and as it’s set for the PS4 and other nameless next-gen consoles (Read: the next Xbox), expect the wide-open world to look even better than what we’ve seen on consoles before.

Has the new Thief game whet your appetite for what’s to come in next-gen consoles, or are you still not convinced? Let us know what you think in the comments below.

Sony Ericsson just unveiled six new phones in the Indian market, phones it describes as entertainment-packed...They are: Xperia X8 (previously known as Shakira), the affordable GreenHeart Cedar, the QWERTY messenger Aspen, and three Walkman phones – Yendo, Spiro, and Zylo. Unfortunately, no pricing details have been revealed yet.

While one of the X10s signature applications, Mediascape, is missing from its portfolio, it features Timescape, and, due to its smaller screen, inherits the four-corner shortcut interface from the X10 Mini.

GreenHeart Sony Ericsson Cedar - Said to offer the "perfect balance between your business and social communication", the GreenHeart Sony Ericsson Cedar apparently provides easy browsing, emailing, and social networking with its 3G HSPA connectivity, all at an "affordable price", and with green features such as recycled plastics, a low power consumption charger, an e-manual, waterborne paint and compact packaging. Another of its USPs is Widget Manager 2.0, which supposedly gives users social networking features on the standby screen.

GreenHeart Sony Ericsson Aspen - The only dedicated business mobile of the lot, the Sony Ericsson Aspen is also the only Windows Mobile (6.5.3 Professional) phone. Branded as an "affordable GreenHeart phone", the Aspen offers green features similar to the Cedar. Citing its "rich user interface and powerful productivity tools" as its business capabilities, Sony Ericsson insists the phone also offers entertainment value, with its Media Browser and PlayNow features, as well as quick access to social networking.

Sony Ericsson Yendo - Sony Ericssons first full-touch Walkman phone, the Sony Ericsson Yendo is described as combining "music, social networking and communication in one colourful phone. The Yendo also features the Xperia X8 and X10 Minis four-corner shortcut touch-UI, to allow for one handed operation. The phone also features ease of social networking (including Facebook 2.6), instant/text messaging, and email use, and has a designed to be trendy device with numerous body colour choices and mix-and-match combinations.

Sony Ericsson Zylo and Sony Ericsson Spiro - Distinctly Walkman phones, the Sony Ericsson Zylo and Sony Ericsson Spiro are similar in interface and design, and supposedly "marry music with social networking", allowing users to access everything from Twitter to Facebook at the "touch of a button", without interrupting their music listening experience. The two phones also feature the TrackID function, which allows users to find the name and artist of any track theyre listening to, "wherever they are".


Sony Ericssons Anurag Kontu, Marketing Head – India, commented on the introduction of the new phones into the Indian market: "Greater access to applications and customizable user experience on handheld devices has shaped the mobile success story in India today. As the communication entertainment brand, Sony Ericsson phones have always enjoyed a phenomenal response from consumers in the region. With the launch of the new portfolio, we continue to offer an amalgamation of communication and entertainment by fusing together best quality touchscreen experience, premium imaging and music features, and great connectivity options across price segments."
