We finally have a tangible hint on the release date for the fashionable LG Prada II, which first made headlines at the beginning of this spring, though until now everything about it was unsure. Fortunately it seems that now all the mystery has been unraveled since at the LG annual dealer show, our colleagues from Mobile Phone Helpdesk, got some answers. LG Sales Director Robbert de Graaf couldn't offer any official news, but what he did was give hints about Prada II. When asked about the release date his answer was 'A good turkey is eaten with Christmas. When white fog rises from the skies of Milan the device will be announc...

Even more, the devices seem to be close to an official presentation, as a video with them has recently appeared on the Web. The video in question is made by Nokia itself, with the purpose of promoting the handsets, and it probably came out by mistake, sooner than it should have. Both the Nokia E71 and E66 are far from being "old products," since they... [read more >>] It seems that, as the year 2008 comes with rapid steps to its end, rumors are that Samsung is working on a new 8 megapixel camera phone codenamed Bresson, apparently after the French photographer Henri Cartier-Bresson. Quite a good codename for a phone with this kind of camera bliss, isn't it? Samsung M8800 could mean a very short lifespan for the newly launched Innov8 especially since the few features that are known about it make it very appealing. So, let's see what we found out about the mysterious Bresson. It will have a large 3.2'' display that will give you 16 million colors and a full touchscreen that seems to be ...

Its price, in case you're wondering, will be one to compete with that of AT&T's iPhone 3G 8GB: $199 with a contract agreement for two years. According to the Wall Street Journal, not only that the Android handset will be sold for this price, but it will also come with Google's logo on it, as previously rumored. Still, there's no clear info yet about the official name the device will have. It might be "HTC Dream," "HTC G1," "T-Mob... [read more >>] HTC, the Taiwanese company that constantly and quickly grew to become one of the world's most famous handset manufacturers, has yet another ace up its sleeve, after the highly-appreciated Touch Diamond and Touch Pro Pocket PCs. The newcomer from HTC is apparently called Touch HD and it seems to be the ultimate full-touch handset. Recently appeared over at the MoDaCo forums, the new HD is said to come with a wide TFT touchscreen display that sports a resolution of 480 x 800 pixels (WVGA), similar to the one that the display of Sony Ericsson's Xperia X1 has.Like HTC's latest Touch Diamond and Touch Pro, the new Touch ... [read more >>] Sony Ericsson is preparing to come up with two new handsets, codenamed Kumiko and Eian, which might represent a new direction in the company's way of designing products - a square-ish direction, if you want to call it something in particular.Kumiko should be officially named Sony Ericsson G705 (we've seen it before) and it will come as the first slider from the Web-oriented Gseries family of handsets – which currently includes the G502, G700 and G900 models.The new G705 has recently been spotted in lots of live images, found over at CellPhoneSail. These confirm the fact that the handset is quite an elegant one and, once comm... [read more >>] Not long after the real form factor of T-Mobile USA's upcoming HTC Dream (or G1) has been unveiled, an almost complete list with its specs has also showed up on the Web, allowing us to get a better picture of what the first Google-branded mobile device is capable of. Although the Dream doesn't seem to be as advanced as, let's say, Samsung Omnia, it might still be one of the major mobile hits of this year. A very interesting aspect about the Dream / G1 is that, according to Androidguys, it will have an Android Marketplace. This should provide access to an online portal, from where users can download applications, gam... [read more >>] T-Mobile USA customers, get ready for the most advanced South Korean handset you've ever seen from your carrier: Samsung Tocco (aka Samsung F480, aka Samsung TouchWiz). Unlike the current Samsung phones included in T-Mo's line-up of products, Tocco is a touchscreen device that packs a range of features which could make Sprint's Instinct feel a bit ashamed of itself. According to TmoNews, the new handset might be named "Samsung T919" or "Samsung Roxy" when released by T-Mobile in the States. Regardless of its final and official name, Samsung Tocco will bring users the following features: a 2.8 inch TFT touchscreen display with... [read more >>] Google's Android mobile platform was officially announced quite some time ago, but there's still no device on the market to run on it. Well, according to recently unveiled details, this will change pretty soon, as T-Mobile USA is said to be the world's first mobile carrier to offer an Android-powered handset. The New York Times is reporting that the fourth largest North American carrier is closely working with Google and HTC in order to release the first Android handset as soon as possible, maybe starting October. The device seems to be "HTC Dream", on which there is little info at the moment (save for the fact that it will r... [read more >>] Not long after Motorola Alexander unveiled its weird face, another high-end Moto handset with a "conqueror" name appeared and, this time, it's the Motorola Atila (appeared on BGR). The reference to Attila the Hun, the Hungarian king in the 5th century, is more than obvious, so Motorola seems to be seriously preparing itself for re-conquering the mobile market. Of course, in order to do so, the American manufacturer will need good-looking and well-featured new handsets. And if we look at Motorola Atila, we discover exactly a device of this kind. The design of Atila is somehow a mix between BlackBerry Bold, LG Dare and Apple's iPhon... [read more >>] |
