when Apple announced the iPhone 5s with fingerprint scanning technology, we didn’t think the whole fingerprint thing would caught up with the rest of the phone makers, but we couldn’t be more wrong. now, we seriously think it might the next fad after mega-size, mega-pixel and crazy resolution. the HTC One max surprises us with
the pretty looking ‘Formula 1 of the smartphone industry’ might have failed to meet its astronomical goal when it went on Indiegogo, but that doesn’t mean Ubuntu enthusiasts have to live without this awesome piece of gesture-heavy, Linux-based OS that is destined to unite the different devices we have today (or maybe, eventually).
we are living in a blissful age for gadgets. with the technology developing at a breakneck speed, we are opened to more affordable choices and mobile communication device is among the beneficiaries of this development. case in point: the ARCHOS Titanium Smartphones. there are four full-featured, mid-range
love the HTC One but think it is a little too ‘small’ for your liking? well, brood no more, cos’ the super-size HTC One max is here to solve your woe with its 5.9-inch Full HD display. not only does the One max offers you a larger display, it decides to go head-to-head with Apple
before you actually plunk down your hard-earned dough for a curved TV, why not treat yourself to a smaller scale curve display first? no kidding and that curved display we are talking about is found on the Samsung GALAXY ROUND Smartphone, which not surprisingly, snags the crown of the world’s first curved display smartphone
not that we want to sneer at iPhone 5s’ fingerprint scanning feature, but we seriously think Apple needs more than a 64-bit architecture and fancy fingerprint scanner to be worthy of being called innovative or breakthrough. if the company’s shares performance is any indication, the new iPhones are anything but groundbreaking
this suspiciously Nokia Lumia-lookalike phone is China mobile phone maker Xiaomi’s latest flagship after the Phone 2. aptly dubbed the Xiaomi Phone 3 (aka MI3), it would be available in either a 1.8GHz Tegra 4 processor or Snapdragon 800 (the latest variant) processor depending on which network (in China, obviously) you are getting the phone from.
we will not try to pretend that Android handsets don’t look alike. seriously, unless you scrutinize the handsets closely, most of them look pretty much the same. handset design won’t stray too far off its oblong design and the narrowing bezel hasn’t help much in differentiating them. the narrower the bezel is, the front is
still not into plastic wrapped, mega-sized handsets? then perhaps this new premium offering from Sony, the Sony Xperia Z1 smartphone, might just be right up your alley. clad in the usual beautiful Sony styling, the Xperia Z1 smartphone takes on Sony’s OmniBalance design featuring an one-piece aluminum, topped off with tempered glass on both the front and the back.
as expected, Samsung has taken the wrap off the third generation Note, the Samsung GALAXY Note 3 smartphone, at the IFA 2013 and it would be a phone that would put a grin on all plastic-haters. the refreshed Note now sports a soft, textured-touch faux-leather back, complete with delicate stitching for what Sammy’s called “premium look and feel.”
when it comes to Android handsets, they are pretty much the same and the one to stand out is the one that rocks the market with another “first” like this Acer Liquid S2 Smartphone, which is claiming the title of the world’s first 4K-recording smartphone – well, at least for now. you know how it is – the ‘first’ title are so volatile these days cos’
