  • Hands on with the Samsung Galaxy S3 at Launch in India

    Hands on with the Samsung Galaxy S3 at Launch in India

    Okay so the Samsung Galaxy S3 was just launched in India, with a lot of fanfare. The company had a list of high profile guests and key executives from Samsung Korea and top admin from their India office. Celebrity Nargis Fakri was also called to introduce the product in the Indian market.

    The phone takes a major redesign approach, if compared to the Galaxy S2 or even the Note. The “Inspired by Nature” theme may not appeal to some, but definitely feels exceptionally good in the hand.

    The phone features a Quad Core Exynos CPU with a clock speed of 1.4GHz , 16 GB of storage and a 8 MP camera at the back. There is also a 1.9MP HD front Camera and the 4.8 inch Super AMOLED display that is spec’d at 1280x720px with a 306 ppi.

    The phone has been priced at Rs. 43180/-, which is a mammoth miscalculation by Samsung, if you ask us. Our sources tell us that the device will be effectively available for approximately 37k.

    Check out the images below and stay tuned for a hands on video, coming shortly.

  • Leaked iPhone 5 cases hint at taller iPhone with a Metal Back

    Leaked iPhone 5 cases hint at taller iPhone with a Metal Back

    There are some images floating around the Inter-webs of a new iPhone design shell, that has been received by many repair companies. UBreakiFix has added some pictures that show a completely new iPhone dock connector.

    The images also indicate a brand new back design with a mix of aluminum and glass, that seems to look rather interesting to us. There is still chances that these are images from a fake chinese manufactory, pretending to be the real deal. But, it definitely strengthens the rumors of a 3.99 inch 16:9 screen and a tiny dock connector.

    New Leap Motion Controller Goes up for Pre Order US $ 82.99 including Shipping

    The amazing new Leap controller has gone up for pre order, and it ships to India for a price of US $ 82.99 (Rs 4690) including the US $12.99 shipping charge.

    The Leap is a small iPod sized USB peripheral that creates a 3D interaction space of 8 cubic feet to precisely interact with and control software on your laptop or desktop computer. The Leap senses your individual hand and finger movements independently, as well as items like a pen.

    Although the product has gone up for Pre-Order we won’t expect it to ship before January 2013, as the company itself states a date of December 2012.

    Google has an amazing new doodle to mark the 78th birthday of Robert Moog,the inventor of the electronic synthesizer. The reason why techno is techno and house music now exists can be all thanks to this dear invention which is todays Google Doodle.

    The Google doodle is intrinsically designed, with a synthesizer that has knobs for oscillators, mixers, filter and envelope and allows the user to make virtual music. It also encompasses you the minute you look at it , as we spent the most of our morning playing with it.
