Next iPhone chip will reportedly be made by Samsung

Samsung may be one of its greatest rivals, yet Apple is again turning to the South Korean organization to get chips made for the iphone, as per a report. 

Samsung will make Apple's next chip, which will probably be known as the A9, in its freshest plants running on the 14-nanometer assembling methodology, as per a news report in Re/code, which refered to unacknowledged sources acquainted with the matter. 

Apple plans its portable chips in-house, however gets them made through contract makers. Before, Apple has turned to Samsung for a large portion of its iphone chips, yet the latest A8 contribute the iphone 6 and iphone 6 Or more were made by TSMC (Taiwan Semiconductor Producing Co.). 

Samsung will have the capacity to supply extensive volumes of low-power, rapid chips for the iphones and ipads. Apple preferences utilizing the most recent and most prominent advancements accessible, and Samsung's manufacturing plants would be a more propelled alternative than the offices gave by TSMC, which is experiencing difficulty transitioning to its 16-nanometer process. 

The news could likewise close the entryway on gossipy tidbits that Apple will turn to Intel to make its versatile chips. Intel likewise utilizes the 14-nanometer procedure to make its chips, yet it has a head-begin over Samsung in 3d transistor stacking innovation, which gives the force proficiency and rate advantages seen in cell phones and tablets. 

Samsung has said it anticipated that would begin revealing 14-nanometer chips in volume before a year ago's over. Samsung contributed 15.6 trillion Korean won (around $14 billion) all the more a year ago in new industrial facilities to make chips for cell phones and modern gear. Globalfoundries could likewise get included in assembling iphone chips as it has authorized Samsung's 14-nanometer process innovation for execution in industrial facilities. 

The opposition in the middle of Apple and Samsung in the cell phone and tablet markets has been exceptional as well as quarrelsome: the organizations have sued one another. Apple's iphone 6 and iphone 6 Or more have been runaway victories, and Samsung wants to make enchantment with the Universe S6, which it may uncover at the Versatile World Congress in Barcelona one month from now.

Nokia 808 PureView Has a Monster 41-Megapixel Camera

BARCELONA — Thought that Symbian was dead? Think again: at the Mobile World Congress in Barcelona, Nokia has just announced the 808 Pureview, a flagship Symbian device with a 41-megapixel camera. You read that right, 41 megapixels – Nokia has made this happen by combining Carl Zeiss optics and Nokia-developed pixel over-sampling technology. High megapixel count does not equal quality photos, of course – we’re looking forward to seeing how PureView tech works in real life. Of course, the PureView technology will be coming to upcoming Nokia phones as well, so get used to phones having crazy megapixel numbers in the near future.
The 808 PureView also features something called Rich Recording, which lets you record “crisp, clear audio (…) up to a thumping 140 decibels,” says Nokia.
The rest of the specs mostly spell mid-range: a single core 1.3 GHz CPU, a 4-inch, 360 x 640 pixel screen, 512 MB of RAM and 16 GB of storage.
The device will retail for 450 euros, hitting the market in May.
And, going back to the question we asked at the beginning – whether Symbian is dead, as many have predicted – Nokia declined to say. In any way, even if 808 PureView is the last Symbian we see, at least the PureView technology will live on in other handsets.

The Samsung Galaxy S IV Unveiled on March 14

One of the most anticipated devices of theyearwas notably absent at the Mobile World Congress in Barcelona.

While many people who would have loved to get a glimpse of the Samsung Galaxy S IV at this year’s Mobile World Congress may have been disappointed, it has now been announced that the wait to see Samsung’s most important mobile device is almost over.


The Samsung Galaxy S IV will be unveiled on March 14 at New York City’s Radio City Music Hall.

This is the first U.S. launch of Samsung’s flagship phone in three years. The Galaxy S III was released last year in London. The move appears to be Samsung’s way of asserting their relevance in their battle with Apple for the mobile market. While Apple may have the advantage over Samsung Electronics in the U.S. handset market, Samsung is a global giant, with a wide advantage over their rival in global markets. For their part, Samsung Electronics’ mobile division chief JK Shin, stated that Samsung changed the venue for the release to New York due to heavy requests from U.S. mobile carriers.

The device specifications will not be released until the grand unveiling at Radio City Music Hall. However, there are many rumors about regarding the features of the Galaxy S IV. The device is thought to have a 4.99’’ full HD screen and a 13-megapixel camera. For those unfamiliar with the previous version of the Galaxy, those specs include both a higher resolution display and camera than the former version. The Galaxy S IV is also expected to have a faster quad-core processor. Rumor has it that it will have an Exynos 5 8-core processor. The device is also expected to run on Android 4.2.2 and have 2GB of RAM. Of course, the official specifications could be different, and we will have to wait to get the full details when the phone is unveiled on March 14.

Leak Confirms Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 Specs?

Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 (Photo credit: blogeee.net)Samsung first introduced the Galaxy Note 10.1 at Mobile World Congress 2012, but now the company might decide to bump up the specs before actually bringing it to market.

According to Sam Mobile, Samsung plans to put a faster processor into the Galaxy Note 10.1 and it will ship the tablet with Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich with plans to update to Jelly Bean later. The new specs come from a leaked user manual photo.

If these leaks are true, the Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 will have a 1.4GHz quad-core processor that matches the one inside the Galaxy S III. Like Samsung announced before, the Galaxy Note 10.1 uses a 10.1-inch WXGA (1280×768) display and can use the special S-Pen that Samsung introduced with the first Galaxy Note.

Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 specs leak

The rest of the specs for the Galaxy Note 10.1 are relatively standard for modern Android tablets. It has a 5MP camera that can shoot 720p video, and a variety of sensors. Unfortunately this leak doesn’t confirm the RAM or storage space available on the tablet.

The big differentiator for the Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 aside from the S-Pen stylus is the ability to run multiple apps. Unlike most mobile devices, the Galaxy Note 10.1 gives users the option to open apps like the web browser in one half of the screen leaving the other half open for jotting down notes. We doubt any third-party apps will support the features, but even just the browser is great for students or anyone else who needs to write notes while browsing the web.

Nokia: T-Mobile’s Lumia 710 Has Exceeded Expectations

At the beginning of February, we posed a question: Is the Nokia Lumia 710 selling poorly on T-Mobile? Our answer was, probably not. Nokia has seemingly answered that question itself today in remarks from company CEO Stephen Elop at the Mobile World Congress in Barcelona. When asked how the Lumia 710 was doing in the United States, Elop was quick to say that it has been “exceeding expectations.”

T-Mobile’s Lumia 710 was the first Nokia-made Windows Phone to hit the United States. It arrived with an aggressive price tag – $50 on-contract, that got even more aggressive when the carrier dropped the price of the device down to free.

When the carrier did that, many believed it was because it was selling poorly.

Nokia Says Its Lumia 710 Windows Phone Has Exceeded Expectations

Not the case says Elop who said that the company is “very pleased” with how the device has selling in the U.S. A quick peek at T-Mobile’s website reveals that the device is currently the third best-selling device on T-Mobile and boasts high customer satisfaction.

Keep in mind, the Lumia 710 isn’t a beast of a smartphone. It’s an entry level device. A very solid entry level device at that.

This seems to bode well for the launch of the Nokia Lumia 900 which is slated to arrive next month on AT&T’s 4G LTE network. We enjoyed the device so much, that we awarded it with our Best in Show award for CES 2012.

Nokia has also released the Lumia 800 here in the United States but as of right now, the price tag is $899. That’s the only way it’s being sold at the moment, which, is a bit puzzling considering Nokia’s plan to aggressively price its devices here in the U.S.

That plan seems to have worked for the Lumia 710 and if rumors are to be believed, the Lumia 900 may launch with a $99 on-contract price, a price that will certainly demand the attention of customers across the U.S.

LG's first quad-core smartphone amongst company's offerings at MWC 2012

LG arrived at Mobile World Congress (MWC) this year with a number of new and updated Android smartphones. The company's new L-Style series kicks off with three handsets ranging from the 3.2-inch L3, through the 4-inch L5, to the flagship 4.3-inch L7. Meanwhile the Optimus 3D gets an update in the form of the Optimus 3D Max, while the new Optimus Vu with its 5-inch display pits itself against Samsung's Galaxy Note. The show also sees the debut of the company's first quad-core powered smartphone, the LG Optimus 4X HD.

L-Style range

Looking to satisfy users who don't necessarily need the latest and greatest in terms of specs, the L-Style series starts with the entry level L3 that measures 11.7 mm (0.46-in) thin, sports a 3.2-inch QVGA display, and comes running Android 2.3 (Gingerbread). It is powered by an 800 MHz processor and packs a fixed-focus 3-megapixel camera.

Next step up in the range is the L5, which is also powered by an 800 MHz processor, but ups the screen size to 4-inches (HVGA), gets a custom skinned Android 4.0 and is a bit thinner than the L3 at 9.68 mm (0.38-in). It also includes a 5-megapixel camera and NFC support.

As the flagship of the L-Style line, the L7 sports a 4.3-inch display, is powered by a 1 GHz processor and comes with Android 4.0 preinstalled. It also boasts a 5-megapixel camera with LED flash. Like the L3 and L5, the L7 will feature what LG calls a "floating mass display" that LG says allows for a slimmer look.

The L3 is due to launch in Europe in March, with the L5 and L7 due out before mid year.

Optimus 3D Max

A year after displaying the Optimus 3D at MWC 2011, LG has unveiled its sequel, the Optimus 3D Max (aka Cube). While it shares much with its predecessor - 4.3-inch glasses-free 3D display, dual 5-mp cameras for shooting 3D stills and video, 8 GB internal storage, HDMI port, DLNA - the Max gets a faster 1.2 GHz dual-core processor, Android 2.3 (with an Android 4.0 update shortly after launch), 1,520 mAh battery and HSPA+ 21 Mbps and NFC (Near Field Communications) support. The redesigned Max is also slightly thinner at 9.89 mm (0.39-in). It is due out in Korea in March, with other markets to follow starting with Europe.

Optimus Vu

Like Samsung's Galaxy Note, the Vu is a super-sized smartphone that fits somewhere between a smartphone and a tablet. It features a 5-inch, 1024 x 768, 4:3 aspect ratio IPS display and is powered by a 1.5 GHz dual-core Qualcomm processor and 1 GB of RAM. It will initially come running Android 2.3, but LG has promised an update to Android 4.0 shortly after launch. It features LTE support and comes with 32 GB of internal memory and a 2,080 mAh battery.

Optimus 4X HD

The biggest news from LG at MWC 2012 is the Optimus 4X HD, which is the company's first quad-core powered smartphone thanks to a 1.5 GHz NVIDIA Tegra 3 processor, which is assisted by 1 GB of RAM and 16 GB of internal storage. It comes running Android 4.0 (Ice Cream Sandwich), and boasts a 4.7-inch 1280 x 720 True HD IPS display. There's an 8-megapixel rear camera and 1.3-megapixel front-facing camera along with a 2,150 mAh battery packed inside an 8.9 mm (0.35-in) thin body. It is due to launch in Europe before mid year.

LG is yet to release pricing details for the new handsets.
