World most amazing mobiles.. 2008

Amazing ..............

10 . Asus Aura

9 . TripleWatch
Though the idea of a cellphone watch is not so new, the TripleWatch designed by Manon Maneenawa has an interesting triple flip technique that allows the user to transform the watch into a normal cellphone. When used as a wrist watch, the phone has a speaker button that allows the user to answer the phone and hang up while driving. ...More Mobiles

8 . NEC Tag
Somehow similar to the Snaked concept, the NEC Tag is a flexible phone concept that can be , for example, hung from a belt or wrapped around the user's arm. Interesting is that the phone has shape-memorizing material and sensors that allows the phone to change its shape according to the mode. ...More Mobiles

7 . Benq-Siemens "The Blackbox"
Black Box designed by Benq-Siemens uses a touch screen as its keypad and, depending on the fun ctions you are using, the touch screen changes the control layout immediately. ...More Mobiles

6 . Retroxis By Dark Label
If most phones presented here will never be sold in store for sure, the Retroxis concept phone from Dark Label looks kinda human, and makes us hope we'll be able to get one of these one day. Designed by Lim Sze Tat the phone is encased in high polished polycarbonate renowned for its lightweight and toughness and has an invisible OLED display that silently hides away when inactive. ...More Mobiles

5 . What You See is What You Get Concept
One thing is for sure about this concept phone they could've named it shorter. Designed by Pei-Hua Hang, the phone's name comes from the fact that this concept no longer uses an LCD as viewfinder for the digital camera, instead it uses a transparent frame. And of course, interaction is made through a touchscreen ...More Mobiles

4 . Benq-Siemes "Snaked"
Benq designers thought of women too and presented Snaked. This is a "reptile" looking phone, creepy somehow, but still is very cool. The Snaked is a fashion phone for sport loving women, because it also has body monitoring sensors to help the ladies keep those fine shapes. ...More Mobiles

3 . Sky "Sleak n Slim"
"Sleek & Slim" from SKY is another concept based on touchscreen technology. The phone has a discretely glowing touchpad, hideaway keys and generally utterly-fashionable minimalist design. ...More Mobiles

2 . Nokia Aeon
Nokia Aeon was presented by Nokia on their website in the Research & Development section. What is so great about this phone is that it looks like it will actually go into production next February.

New Samsung

Samsung Launches G400 Soul

Samsung is all over the mobile scene these days from WMC in Barcelona, to Mobile Asia 2008 in Delhi and now CeBIT in Hannover where they've announced the launch of a new clamshell handset the G400 Soul.

This a rather unique handset given the fact that it has identical displays inside and outside. Both displays are 2.2 inches with 240 x 320 pixel resolutions and 262k colors. It’s touch sensitive with haptic technology for fingertip feedback and can access the phone's media, as well as other features. The G400 also has HSDPA support, Bluetooth and USB connectivity and also supports external memory with microSD cards. It also comes equipped with a 5 megapixel auto-focus camera with features like face recognition and Samsung's Wide Dynamic Range optimization and image stabilization technology. Quite a well-rounded handset.

The Samsung G400 Soul will be available in Europe from June of this year and there’s no price tag yet unfortunately. Stay Tuned.

Rock on NOKIA!

Nokia Launches 2 New XpressMusic Handsets

Nokia has added two more devices to its music range of handsets: the 5220 and the 5320 XpressMusic.

"Today's additions to the XpressMusic range up the ante with new ways for consumers to access their media, as well as interact and share content with friends and communities anytime, anywhere," said Jo Harlow, Vice President, LIVE category, Nokia.

The 5320 features 3G social entertainment capabilities with Web 2.0 access. A new voice-controlled Say and Play feature lets you say the name of an artist or song to play it. Like other XpressMusic handsets, the 5320 also has dedicated music keys, and thankfully a 3.5mm audio jack. According to Nokia, the handset can deliver up to 24 hours of playback time.

Other features include an audio chip for hi-fi sound quality, extendable memory up to 8GB, HS-USB for fast music transfer, and HSDPA for fast access to data. This loaded handset has a full-featured Internet browser, access to Ovi, and Nokia Search 4.1, which allows users to find and share media content and information. It also allows for N-Gage gaming in the convenient landscape mode.

The other handset (Nokia 5220 XpressMusic) seems to have a bit of a lopsided design. No, it’s not your eyes playing tricks; the phone is actually designed that way. It has a built-in lanyard that makes it easy to carry around. Other features include dedicated XpressMusic keys, a 3.5mm audio jack, and support for external memory via microSD cards.

These handsets are equipped with 2 megapixel cameras and FM radios. Both are compatible with the recently launched Nokia Music Store, where consumers can choose from more than 2 million tracks and browse, download, stream and sync, either to a PC or side-load directly to a mobile device.

Nokia 5320 and 5220 XpressMusic are expected to begin shipping in the third quarter of 2008 with estimated retail prices of Rs 13,980 (€220) and Rs 10,166 (€160) respectively, before taxes and subsidies

Race with MOTO....

Whooppppppppp with MOTOROLA!!!!!!!!!!

Motorola has announced the launch of the 3G MOTORAZR V9 Ferrari Special Edition in India. I heard about this handset a while back and personally, although the price is way out of my league I’m happy that Motorola decided to launch the handset in the Indian market so quickly. The MOTORAZR V9 Ferrari comes with 2 large color screens, internal and external and employs Motorola’s CrystalTalk technology which should deliver call clarity even in noisy environments. The handset also supports USB 2.0 and stereo Bluetooth.

The V9 Ferrari Special Edition is available at MOTOSTOREs, MOTOSTORE Lites and select premium retail outlets across the country at a price of Rs. 21,840 (MRP). It comes with a 2GB memory card, an exclusive signature Ferrari leather case and a stereo headset.

All new and gorgeous 8MP

Samsung Launches 8MP Camera Phone

Now 4get the old 5MP....let's get ready for whooping 8MP......thnx 2 SAMSUNG.....

It’s official! Samsung's 8 megapixel camera phone that we saw floating around earlier this month, has been officially announced, say reports. This quad-band GSM handset called the i8510 INNOV8, as in ‘Innovate’, runs on a Symbian S60 smartphone OS (3rd edition Feature Pack 2).

The i8510 is equipped with a 2.8-inch QVGA display that supports 16 million colors and a resolution of 240 x 320 pixels and an accelerometer for automatically adjusting the screen orientation. It comes with a whopping 16 GB and 8 GB of onboard memory so space is not going to be an issue. It will also support external memory via microSD. Other features also include TV out, DivX playback, FM radio with RDS and it's also DLNA compatible. The handset will also be equipped with 128MB of RAM and a 3D graphics accelerator so gaming should be a real ‘blast’.



This monster is a fully equipped device featuring inbuilt GPS (A-GPS support also) capabilities, Wi-fi, Bluetooth with A2DP and of course USB 2.0 connectivity as well as 3G with HSDPA support. The i8510 also comes with a geotagging feature for the 8MP auto focus camera that also has an LED flash (WHAT?!!! No xenon???). The camera also has other features like face and smile recognition and an auto panorama mode.

Media capabilities include stereo speakers, 3D surround sound effect and DNSe 2.0. Thankfully the i8510 has a standard 3.5mm audio jack and not one of Samsung’s multi utility proprietary ports.

Take your iPhone underwater with new coating

A clear plastic coating currently under development could spell the end for water-damaged gadgets. The company behind the technology claims that any device can be completely waterproofed without the need for a bulky case.

In a recent demonstration by the US firm Golden Shellback, an iPod touch coated with its special substance was entirely submerged in water - without the usual negative consequences that most of us are all too familiar with.

The coating is applied in avacuum, which allows not only the external surface to be coated, but also the surface of all internal components. Because the substance doesn't conduct electricity this has no effect on chips or circuits.

"Golden Shellback coating produces a vacuum deposited film that is non-flammable, has low toxicity and has the ability to weatherproof electronic devices and other surfaces," says a post on the company's website.

In tests a VHF radio was fully submerged under water for 450 hours and was retrieved fully working claims the company. The makers suggest that the coating will be available to the public soon and that devices will have to be sent directly to the company for treatment at a cost of between £25 and £37 .

New affordable 5MP

LG Launches Affordable 5MP Camera Phone

LG is out with a new and rather decently-priced 5 megapixel camera phone – the KC550 - that’s just 14mm thick. It sports Schneider-Kreuznach auto-focus optics with an Image stabilizer. This new slider is a Tri-Band handset that comes quite well equipped for various media functions like a media player, FM radio, video and image editors and even motion sensitive games that work with the KC550’s integrated accelerometer sensor. The KC550 also supports Bluetooth with an A2DP profile and EDGE for net connectivity. It also uses MicroSD cards for memory expansion.

This fully equipped media mobile is priced at Rs. 14,719 ($350). With a price tag like that let’s hope it gets to us ASAP.

Features of iPhone

Features

The iPhone allows audio conferencing, call holding, call merging, caller ID, and integration with other cellular network features and iPhone functions. Voice dialing and video calling are not supported by the iPhone, unlike most of the competing phones.

The iPhone includes a visual voicemail feature allowing users to view a list of current voicemail messages on-screen without having to call into their voicemail. Unlike most other systems, messages can be listened to and deleted in a non-chronological order by choosing any message from an on-screen list. AT&T, O2, T-Mobile Germany, and Orange modified their voicemail infrastructure to accommodate this new feature designed by Apple. A lawsuit has been filed against Apple and AT&T by Klausner Technologies claiming the iPhone's visual voicemail feature infringes two patents.^{[66][dead links]}

A music ringtone feature was introduced in the United States on September 5, 2007. For a fee equal to the price of the song on iTunes, the user is allowed to create their custom ringtones. It is not yet available in all countries where the iPhone has been released. The ringtones can be from 3 to 30 seconds in length of any part of a song, can include fading in and out, can pause from half a second to five seconds when looped, and never expire. All customizing can be done in iTunes, and the synced ringtones can also be used for alarms on the iPhone. Custom ringtones can also be created using Apple's GarageBand software 4.1.1 or later (available only on Mac OS X)and third-party tools.

Multimedia

The layout of the music library is similar to iPods and current Symbian S60 phones, with the sections divided more clearly alphabetically, and with a larger font. Just like iPods, the iPhone can sort its media library by songs, artists, albums, videos, playlists, genres, composers, podcasts, audiobooks, and compilations. Cover Flow, like that on iTunes, shows the different album covers in a scroll-through photo library. Scrolling is achieved by swiping a finger across the screen.

The iPhone supports gapless playback.Like the fifth generation iPods introduced in 2005, the iPhone can play video, allowing users to watch TV shows and films. Unlike other image-related content, video on the iPhone plays only in the landscape orientation, when the phone is turned sideways. Double tapping switches between wide-screen and full-screen video playback.

The iPhone allows users to purchase and download songs from the iTunes Store directly to their iPhone over Wi-Fi with the iTunes Wi-Fi Music Store, but not over the cellular data network.

Internet connectivity and accessibility

Internet access is available when the iPhone is connected to a local area Wi-Fi or a wide area GSM or EDGE network, both 2G standards. Steve Jobs stated in September 2007 that 3G would need to become more widespread in the United States and 3G chipsets would need to become much more energy efficient before inclusion in the iPhone.The iPhone 3G supports UMTS and HSDPA, but not HSUPA networks. It is not clear whether it supports HSDPA 3.6 or HSDPA 7.2.^{[citation needed]}

By default, the iPhone will ask to join newly discovered Wi-Fi networks and prompt for the passwor

d when required, while also supporting manually joining closed Wi-Fi networks. When Wi-Fi is active, the iPhone will automatically switch from the EDGE network to any nearby previously approved Wi-Fi network.^[72] 802.1X is supported by the iPhone OS version 2.0, which is used by many university and corporate Wi-Fi networks.

The ubiquitous Internet connection offered by the iPhone has been widely utilized by users. According to Google, the iPhone generates 50 times more searchrequests than any other mobile handset. According to Deutsche Telekom CEO René Obermann, "The average Internet usage for an iPhone customer is more than 100 MBytes. This is 30 times the use for our average contract-based consumer customers." The iPhone is able to access the World Wide Web via a modified version ofthe Safari web browser. Web pages may be viewed in portrait or landscape mode and supports automatic zooming by pinching together or spreading apart fingertips on the screen, or by double-tapping text or images. The web browser displays complete web pages similar to a desktop web browser and supports zooming by double-tapping the screen.

Camera

The iPhone

features a built in 2.0 megapixel camera located on the back for still digital photos. It has no optical zoom, flash or autofocus, and does not support video recording.

The iPhone includes software t

hat allows the user to upload, view, and e-mail photos. The user zooms in and out of photos by "unpinching" and "pinching" them through the multi-touch interface. The software interacts with iPhoto an

d Aperture software on the Mac and Photoshop software in Windows. In version 2.0 of the iPhone OS, users can choose to allow location data to be embedded in the pictures producing geocoded photographs (geotagging).

Text input

For text input, the device implements a virtual keyboard on the touchscreen. It has automatic spell checking and correction, pr

edictive

word capabilities, and a dynamic dictionary that learns new words. The predictive word capabilities have been integrated with the dynamic virtual keyboard so that users will not have to be extremely accurate when typing—i.e. touching the edges of the desired letter or nearby letters on the keyboard will be predictively corrected when possible. The keys are somewhat larger and spaced farther apart when in landscape mode, currently only available using the Safari web browser. Not focusing more on texting has been considered a chief weakness of the iPhone, while at the same time others believethe virtual keyboard to be a bold step and a worthwhile risk. The lack of a physical keyboard allows for the keyboard to be optimized fordifferent applications and languages.
