So for this weekend rumours and news, I want to talk about a few things: First, apparently some details emerged about the HTC One X + (codenamed Endeavour C2) that say that it will come with a 1.6GHZ Tegra 3 + CPU (the one that comes with LTE) and in single core mode it can hit 1.7GHZ, the same 4.7' SuperLCD 2 touchscreen unit as the One X, 8Mpx camera, 1GB of RAM, 32GB of internal storage and a new design that actually has its roots in the HTC One S rather than One X. It will include the same 1800mah battery and will be 9.3mm thick. It will run Jelly Bean and will have Sense 4.5 on top of it. Most likely the device will come this holiday.
Also there are rumours about some tablets. One tablet features a 7-inch screen with 1280X768-pixel display, Android Jelly Bean with HTC's Sense UI atop, a Snapdragon S4 processor, a 3-megapixel rear camera and 1-megapixel front camera. The other tablet is rumoured to sport a 10-inch screen powered by a Tegra 3 processor. This is the same tablet that had leaked online just a few days back. Other specifications aren't clear, except for the fact it will come with 1GB RAM and will sport an unusual design.
Another HTC Windows Phone 8 phone leaked this weekend and after the looks of it, it's a mid-range one. It comes with a SuperLCD 2 720p screen and a diagonal of about 4.3' and a 1.2GHZ dual-core CPU and 1GB of RAM aswell as 16GB of storage, NFC and a 8MPX camera with an F2.0, 29mm lens (they call them ultra wide angle) and 1080p Video Recording aswell as Beats audio. Originally called the HTC Accord apparently it will be called now HTC 8X.
And also apparently the HTC 5 incher that was said to come to Verizon is legit. The screen size will be around 5 inches (5.01 inches more exactely) and if we believe the benchmarks it should have the 1080p screen and the S4 Pro with Adreno 320 GPU that was mentioned in the first place. While I still have a bit of doubts, I suggest to wait and see what mighty device this might be (sounds pretty sweet so far).
Also fun enough, HTC launches new dual-sim based One S device (SC) to China. That might be their policy of fewer devices but I bet to disagree. After I just had a rant at them for their fake-policy they decide to do that. Nice HTC. You just dug your own grave.
And to finish the HTC news for today, analysts are skeptical about the company state. Apparently HTC is already in the fourth consecutive quarter of profit loss. Apparently the One series wasn't so succesufull in Europe. Even though HTC is pulling out new dual-sim devices based on One S in China and and soon it will come on international markets with One X + and 8X, analysts say that is too late for HTC to save themselvs. So apparently after Nokia and Blackberry, HTC seems to have problems too. Seems like we are closeing in to a Samsung market domination and I'm not necessary sure that is a good thing.
Let's get to Samsung. Leaks appeard of a dual-sim Galaxy Note 2 smartphone for China. While the leak is more than sure legit, we don't know if it will ever get out of China. The dual-sim model will have the same specs as the one sim model, that includes the quad-core CPU and 2gigs of RAM so I guess if you want a beefy dual-sim phone you should wait for this on. Funny thing though is that it apparently supports a microSIM and a Normal sized SIM cards instead of two microSIMs or two NormalSIMs.
Also the Jelly Bean update for SIII is coming along nicely. I tried today the latest leak and I have to say that I'm impressed. Is a major improvement over ICS and I can't wait to see the final result. I hate when people say that it is worse compared to HTC one just because they are biased so I ain't even gonna comment. Also there are still no rumours about Galaxy sII Jelly Bean update. While Galaxy Tab 2 7, Note I, Note II, Note 10,1 and S III are confirmed/recieved the update, there is no word about Galaxy S II.
Also apparently the Note 2 will come to Verizon. It will have the same specs as the international one, so keep it close people. Announcement following soon.
Let's get to Nokia now:
While they say that Lumia 920 has the greatest PureView image experience, that can't be said about video recording. Accoring to Damian Dinning the Nokia Camera guru the only difference between 920 and the 41mpx 808 in terms of video recording is that 808 records stereo sound while 920 records only mono sound. That is a bit dissapointing given the fact that Nokia announced 920 has 3 high-sensivity mics. Congrats Nokia! Also, while they faked some of the photos and the OIS clip, the Low Light performance of the 920 is actually indeed impressive. I don't understand while they faked it but the hardware is indeed capable of the low light performance Nokia claims. The OIS hasn't yet been tested since Nokia said it isn't ready yet. Are they hideing something? I guess we should wait and see. That's all for today folks! See you next time!
