  • Nokia Mega Comeback Phone to cost Rs. 9999

    Nokia Mega Comeback Phone to cost Rs. 9999

    Nokia 1DC will be launched early next year at Mobile World Congress 2017. The phone which will revive the Nokia brand name and be the first ever smartphone from the Finnish giant sold running Android will be available in two variants. One with 2GB RAM and one with 3 GB RAM according to a report.

    The report claims that the Nokia 1DC will start at US $ 150 and will run Android N out of  the box. Earlier leaks on benchmark sites have positioned the 1DC with a Snapdragon 430 chipset and Adreno 505 GPU. The specifications don’t seem to keep up with the expectations of the “comeback” tag. Both variants of the Nokia 1DC will sport full HD displays, however, one has a 5 inch display while the 3GB RAM variant is expected to sport a 5.5 inch display.

    Camera options also seem to be mixed, with the lower variant sporting a 13 MP shooter and the higher variant churning 16 Mega Pixels.

    HMD Global, which is the manufacturer carrying the Nokia name, has confirmed that the Indian market is key and the first phone will be in the Rs. 10000 price bracket which matches perfectly with the rumoured US $ 150 price of the above Nokia 1DC.

    Nokia still holds 1/10 the overall mobile handset market, although this is largely due to their strong hold of feature phones, HMD plans to regain position to double in the first year of launch getting 1/5th the market share.

  • HTC 11 will Feature a Qualcomm Snapdragon 835 Chipset and a Whopping 8 GB of RAM

    HTC 11 will Feature a Qualcomm Snapdragon 835 Chipset and a Whopping 8 GB of RAM

    HTC may be looking at the best phone of 2017 with the next flagship from the Taiwanese smartphone house. The HTC 11 which is set to replace the HTC has leaked on Chinese site Weibo with specifications that will make most tech enthusiasts excited.

    The HTC 11 will feature near bezel-free design along with a 5.5 inch 2560 x 1440px display, the phone will also feature Qualcomm’s flagship Snapdragon 835 chipset which is designed for superb power and excellent battery management. The Snapdragon 835 is built on a highly efficient 10nm manufacturing process, and is considered to be significantly faster.

    The leaks also indicate a Quick Charge 4.0 feature which is also inherent in the Snapdragon 835 chipset. The HTC 11 is also said to sport a whopping 8GB of RAM ( although, it may be unlikely), the company may take this step in an attempt to not skim on specifications. Thanks to the new storage options on the iPhone, with upto 256 GB available and the recent launch of the OnePlus 3 with upto 128 GB as an option. HTC too might make the jump to 128 or 256 GB of storage.

    The HTC 11 is also rumoured to sport a dual 12 MP camera setup, along with a front facing 8 MP with OIS, which would be an upgrade from last years 5 MP. Leaks also suggest a 3700 mAh battery, which paired up with the highly efficient Snapdragon 835 should churn out impressive battery life.

    The leaks cannot be validated at this time, but if HTC does plan to head in this direction they might continue to upward climb, back to the top positions of the Smartphone race. HTC has also started seeding Android N updates to the HTC 10 on a global level and all regions are expected to receive updates in December.

    Samsung Galaxy S8 and S8 Plus will Drop the 3.5mm Headphone Jack and Physical Home Button

    Samsung’s upcoming 2017 flagship the Galaxy S8 along side the bigger rumoured brother set to replace the Samsung Note 7, the Samsung Galaxy S8 Plus will come without a 3.5mm headphone jack if rumours are to be believed.

    Samsung will also replace the dated micro-USB port with the new USB-C port along with include the new powerful Qualcomm Snapdragon 835 chipsets. Samsung will follow Apple’s lead to remove the 3.5 mm headphone jack in order to make the phone slimmer. The Galaxy S8 is now an edge only variant, which means no flat screen Samsung Galaxy S8 will be launched, same seems to be the case with the Galaxy S8 plus.

    Samsung will also finally make the jump to 6 GB of RAM on the new S8 and S8 plus phones along with 128 and 256 GB storage options. The Samsung Galaxy S8 and S8 Plus sold in Asia will carry a new Exyos chipset.

    While earlier reports suggested that Samsung will use a 4K display on the S8 , this may not come true in this iteration of the smartphone and may be the case with 2018’s flagship Samsung phone. In an attempt to kill the Note series, the Galaxy S8 plus will be sold with an optional S Pen accessory which will give it all the functionality of the Note phones.

    Samsung will focus heavily on aesthetics and camera with the Galaxy S8 and S8 plus, so a slight new reduced bezel design is in the works. Especially after Xiaomi has shown off that it is possible.  The Galaxy S8 and S8 plus will feature new style of fingerprint sensor that sits behind the main glass of the phone, allowing for additional security while keeping the front surface clean.

    Samsung is utilising two sensors of 16 MP capability in the Galaxy S8 and with allow new “depth” effects, and unlike the iPhone 7 and 7 Plus, where only the plus variant got the two camera setup, in Samsung’s case both the Galaxy S8 and Galaxy S8 plus will feature the dual camera setup.

    The Galaxy S8 and S8 Plus will also feature the iris scanner shown off in the infamous Note 7 handset.
