HTC INTRODUCES HTC EVO 3D, THE FIRST GLASSES-FREE DEVICE WITH QHD 3D DISPLAY

New Delhi, India – 30 August, 2011 – HTC Corporation, a global leader in mobile innovation and design, today unveiled the HTC EVO 3D based on Qualcomm Incorporated’s Snapdragon™ S3 processor at Qualcomm’s signature event, India On 2011. HTC EVO 3D takes the mobile multimedia experience to a new level, providing the ability to capture and not only view in 3D through a brilliant high-definition display, but also share at fast speeds, offering consumers the ultimate glasses-free 3D experience.

Built with the Gingerbread (2.3) version of Android™, HTC EVO 3D features first QHD 3D 4.3-inch display and a powerful  Snapdragon S3 processor (1.2 GHz Dual-core CPUs). HTC EVO 3D also features dual 5 megapixel cameras, which can be used to capture both high-quality conventional and stunning 3D images and videos, opening up new frontiers for user-generated content, social networking and streaming video.

“We are proud to collaborate with Qualcomm to present another technological breakthrough device from HTC, the EVO 3D-the first smartphone available in the Indian market offering a superior 3D viewing experience without glasses. We are confident that the HTC EVO 3D will set a benchmark for 3D viewing and our consumers will make best use of this offering,” said Mr Faisal Siddiqui, Country Head, HTC-India”.

“Qualcomm congratulates HTC on the launch of the HTC EVO 3D powered by Qualcomm’s Snapdragon S3 processor. This device opens up a new dimension for capturing, consuming and interacting with 3D content on the move. The powerful and power-efficient asynchronous dual core CPUs, coupled with the rich 3D and HD capabilities of Adreno™ 220 GPU and integrated support for stereoscopic 3D in Snapdragon, enable an immersive glasses-free 3D experience for Indian consumers,” said Dr. Sandeep Sibal, Country Manager and VP, Business Development, Qualcomm India and South Asia.

As 3D has become more sought-after in both movie theatres and family rooms, the ability to enjoy glasses free 3D on a wireless phone will change the way customers interact with their devices. According to The NPD Group’s 3D 360° Monitor (September 2010), consumers show a high degree of interest in working with personal media in 3D (with one-third saying they would like to take photos in 3D). 

The countless ways customers benefit from HTC EVO 3D’s dynamic ability to capture and playback video in 3D include:

• Real estate agents can create and share 3D virtual tours of homes that let out-of-town buyers “walk through” the house and truly experience the listings before they can see them live;
• 3D mapping of terrain will help build new and exciting features for navigation, and hikers will be able to get aerial views of the topography of rivers and mountains while in the backcountry; and
• Families can “relive” the excitement of their vacation and feel like they are there again.

“At HTC, we believe in offering a wide portfolio of beautifully designed, powerful and highly customizable devices for our customers, and the HTC EVO 3D does just that,” said Mr Lennard Hoornik, President of HTC South Asia Pacific. “As HTC continues to push the limits of innovation, we are looking forward to deliver more and more innovative products such as the HTC EVO 3D to our customers.”

According to ABI Research (Dec. 20, 2010) mobile 3D devices will be driven by three key applications: creation of user-generated 3D content by integrated video and still cameras, playback of 3D content and 3D gaming. It also anticipates that mobile devices may turn out to be the most successful form factor towards bringing 3D technology into mainstream markets.

With integrated 3D HD (720p) video capture and the latest version of the acclaimed HTC Sense experience, HTC EVO 3D makes it possible to become part of the action and then easily and seamlessly post high-quality video to YouTube™ or Facebook, or share moments in real time over the Internet live, via Qik. Its integrated DLNA (Digital Living Network Alliance) capability makes it fast and easy to share stored music, pictures and user-generated HD video wirelessly with other DLNA-certified® home electronics, including HDTVs, monitors, digital cameras, printers and more. Using an HDMI cable (sold separately) makes it possible to also share user-created 3D video content via a 3D TV.

Additional key features of HTC EVO 3D include:

• 1.3 megapixel front-facing camera for video chat
• 3G Mobile Hotspot capability, supporting up to eight Wi-Fi enabled devices simultaneously
• Qualcomm Snapdragon S3 processor with 1.2GHz dual core
• Android Market™ for access to more than 150,000 useful applications, widgets and games available for download to customize the experience
• Google mobile services such as Google Search™, Gmail™, Google Maps™ with Navigation, Google Calendar, Voice Actions, and YouTube™
• Corporate e-mail (Microsoft Exchange ActiveSync®), personal (POP and IMAP) e-mail and instant messaging
• 4GB Internal memory/1GB RAM
• microSD slot (supports up to 32GB memory card)
• Wi-Fi – 802.11 b/g/n
• Stereo Bluetooth®
• Integrated GPS
• 1730 mAh Lithium-ion battery

The HTC EVO 3D will be available at a Market Operating Price of Rs. 35990 at all authorized HTC resellers across the country.

Samsung launches YP-R2, YP-Z3, MP3 HD compatible PMPs

”Samsung has had its sights set on a PMP with MP3 HD support for some time now — first announcing (and later killing) the IceTouch in 2010, and now launching the YP-R2 and YP-Z3 in markets including Russia and Korea. Claiming that the lossy/lossless HD MP3 sound is five times better than the standard variety, the company will put it to the test with access to Melon, Korea’s largest 2.2 million song music store. So far, Samsung has only confirmed the R2 has a 3-inch WQVGA full touch display, is .3-inches thick and weighs around 52 grams, while the Z3, on the other hand has a 1.8-inch display and measures in at 36 grams. The music players also support photo and text viewing, FM radio and 5.1-channel surround sound. The R2 comes in black and silver and costs 149,000 KRW ($140) for 4GB, and 169,000 KRW ($160) for 8GB.

Samsung Galaxy S II LTE hits with 1.5GHz to fight iPhone 5

Samsung tipped its hand early on some of its smartphone plans for this week with an early Korean unveiling of the newly upgraded Galaxy S II. The new Galaxy S II LTE has not just its namesake 4G and a larger 4.5-inch screen but an even faster, dual-core 1.5GHz Exynos processor to keep it out in front for performance. NFC wireless and a larger 1,850mAh battery (up from 1,650mAh) also freshen the design.

The Galaxy Tab 8.9's months-delayed launch is also rewarding buyers for the wait, Samsung claimed. Along with LTE, it should get the same 1.5GHz dual-core chip as the S II and arrive with Android 3.2 out of the box. In spite of the smaller screen, it should still measure 8.6mm (0.34 inches) thick like the Tab 10.1.

Samsung hasn't given out release dates for the new phone or tablet. In the US, the redesigned Galaxy S II will be part of an August 30 launch and is widely presumed to be shipping to the US in September for AT&T, Sprint, and T-Mobile with respective LTE, WiMAX, and 42Mbps HSPA+ connections providing the 4G-equivalent speeds. The Galaxy Tab 8.9 is presumed to be shipping within several weeks.

The revamp is uncharacteristic for Samsung, which often leaves its flagship smartphones untouched all year. Suspicions already exist that the faster Galaxy S II is a defensive measure against the iPhone 5's rumored October release and seeing the S II's feature lead evaporate when Apple has its own dual-core, possibly larger-screened hardware in stores. It might also be an attempt to circumvent Apple's bans on Galaxy phones in Europe, and potentially in the US, by having a new model in shops.

Nokia C2-02 review: A simple touch

As Nokia smartphones struggle to hold the line against the storming droids, more and more pressure falls on their feature-phone squad. It will be up to those foot soldiers to buy enough time for the heavily armed Windows Phone 7 reinforcements to arrive.

The Nokia C2-02 is the first of a trio of handsets to try and make the most of what's probably Nokia's last remaining stronghold - simple to use phones with good looks and an attractive price tag. The Touch and Type series has been doing well for Nokia and even though they scrapped the name, the spirit will live on.

Key features

• Dual-band GSM/GPRS/EDGE support
• 2.6" 65K-color resistive TFT QVGA touchscreen
• S40 6th edition
• 2 megapixel fixed-focus camera
• QCIF video recording at 15fps
• Stereo FM radio with RDS, Visual radio
• Bluetooth v2.1 (with A2DP)
• Standard microUSB port
• microSD card slot (32 GB supported, 2GB included)
• 3.5mm audio jack
• Extra smooth and precise haptic feedback
• Attractive price

Main disadvantages

• No Wi-Fi
• Doesn’t charge off USB
• No screen brightness control
• No document viewer
• No smart dialing
• No video-call camera
• No accelerometer sensor means no cool features like tap-for-time and turn-to mute
• No multitasking

If you’ve been keeping track, you’d surely find the flaw list familiar. S40 made the leap to touchscreen but Nokia still didn't bother packing it with smart dialing and multitasking – features already available on competing feature phones for years. The screen itself is nothing to shout about: a small, low-res, resistive display. But the slider form factor makes quite a bit of sense - especially if you had doubts about the first Touch and Type candybars. Sliders make better use of space: the C2-02 gives you a reasonably comfortable dial pad and a bigger screen.

RIM unwraps BlackBerry Torch 9850, 9860

RIM greatly widened its smartphone mix on Wednesday with two more BlackBerry 7 devices. The 9850 and 9860 are the first touch-only phones from RIM to get a high-resolution screen: either has a 480x800 LCD that finally makes them competitive with modern Android hardware and more comparable to the iPhone. The two likewise drop the often criticized click-down SurePress screen from the Storm and use multi-touch instead, much like theTorch 9810.

It slips in the 1.2GHz processor of the Bold 9900 and other BlackBerry 7 phones so far, and should be much faster than the three-year-old chip from the Storm line. Also like the Bold, the five-megapixel camera can now shoot 720p video. BlackBerry 7 contributes its own share by invoking hardware graphics boosts both for 3D and for the interface itself.

Data speeds revolve heavily around the network, with the 9850 running on CDMA for voice and EVDO for 3G while the 9860 uses GSM voice (on 2G) and considerably faster 14.4Mbps HSPA for 3G.

AT&T is one of the first US carriers to pick up the 9860 and plans to ship it sometime later in the year. Sprint is already known to be lining up behind the 9850. Canadian carriers and others worldwide should sign on to the 9860 as well with their own schedules coming soon.

Both new Torches should be RIM's most advanced phones for the year and in many ways represent the company's biggest hopes for returning to competition. BlackBerry Phone shipments have dropped rapidly in the past several months and, even with phones like the Torch 9810 now factored in, could drop to no more than 12.5 million units during the summer. The 9850 and 9860 are not just much more contemporary but also drop the Storm name, which many had commonly associated with RIM's struggling, first-generation touchscreen phones. Once pitched as the ultimate challenger to the iPhone, the Storm quickly tapered off in sales and went without any update last fall as RIM rethought the concept.

RIM, AT&T reveal BlackBerry Torch 9810 early

After unintentionally posting a product page early, AT&T and RIM together unveiled the second BlackBerry 7 device, the BlackBerry Torch 9810. It stands as a direct sequel to the original Torch that has the familiar vertical QWERTY slider, but with a much faster 1.2GHz processor and 720p video recording from the Bold 9900. While its design is very similar to the original Torch, it bumps the previously aging 3.25-inch display to a much sharper 640x480.

An extra speed boost comes from BlackBerry 7's support for a hardware graphics boost, which ramps up the interface speed itself and gives a Torch real 3D gaming support for the first time. Internet access is faster, too, as the 9810 runs on twice-as-fast 14.4Mbps HSPA for 3G. Owners get 8GB of storage built-in with a micro SDHC slot for more.

Despite the Bold 9900 having been unveiled as far back as May, the Torch 9810 may beat it to the market in the US. AT&T is expected to carry the slider BlackBerry in August, but it doesn't have a specific timeline for the 9900. Rogers in Canada is also known to be onside for the 9810 and should be joined by other carriers worldwide.

The cost of the phone still hasn't been set but, unofficially, is expected to run close to the industry-standard $200 on contract.

New Nokia Windows Phone 7 Smart Phone Coming Soon

 Nokia, as expected, has announced partnership with Microsoft that would replace Nokia’s “burning platform” Symbian with Windows Phone 7.

Among them, one of the leaks claims to have exposed some of the Nokia Windows Phone 7concepts developed as a part of the partnership.

The shape of these handsets is somewhere between its recent N8 and C7 Symbian devices and there is, as usual for Nokia, a choice of sprightly colors.

Well, even if the images are just conceptual ones, the real outcome of the Nokia Microsoft partnership may be somewhere closer to it. In the partnership, Nokia will be contributing its expertise on developing user friendly hardware while Microsoft will be putting its efforts on the software front.

Samsung Galaxy Tab 750, 730 launched, starting from Rs 33,990

As expected, Samsung has launched the Galaxy Tab 750 (Galaxy Tab 10.1) and Galaxy Tab 730 (Galaxy Tab 8.9) in India. Both the Tabs come with HSPA+ connectivity, 16GB of internal memory, 2.0 MP front and 3.0 MP rear cameras, nVIDIA Tegra 2 1GHz processor, 7,000 mAh battery and 1GB of RAM. The Tab 750 tips the scales at 565 grams and the Tab 730 at 465 grams and are thinner than the iPad 2 at 8.6 mm. The Galaxy Tab 750 is priced at Rs 36,200 and the Tab 730 at Rs 33,990. Samsung has tied up with Vodafone to offer Galaxy Tab owners 2GB of 3G data every month for six months at Rs 3,000.
