Snapdragon-powered Toshiba TG01 UK unveiling on July 9

July 1st, 2009

Toshiba TG01

When it comes to super-slim and sexy smartphones with enough computing power to take over the world, the Toshiba TG01 takes the cake. Thanks to apower-packed Snapdragon chipset, the TG01 speeds along at 1Ghz clock speeds while playing with a hefty 256MB of RAM and a 4.1-inch WVGA (800 x 480) touchscreen display. The kicker - the TG01 stuffs WiFi, GPS, 3.2-megapixel camera and 3G data connectivity into a package barely 10mm thick! And, it’s coming to the UK next week.

We’ve been keeping an eye on the Toshiba (OTCPK: TOSBF) TG01 ever since we had a chance to put hands on the super-thin smartphone in Barcelona. Despite having pulled the plug on Japanese production, Toshiba looks to be going strong with their TG01 roll-out. Check out our in-depth Toshiba TG01 hands-on here.

While those of use in The States will have to wait for the Toshiba TG01 to get all official, it looks like the UK will be the next market to get the Window Mobile 6.1 smartphone. Come July 9th, Toshiba will be showing off something really cool in London. Given Toshiba’s Summer launch window for the TG01, it’s highly likely we’ll see Toshiba unleashing the Toshiba TG01 on British soil next week.

Samsung intros four entry-level GSM babies

June 30th, 2009

Samsung

I know you will not like the recession beat for a time long but such pale GSM babies from Samsung cannot be justified for a different thought. What we can do it to talk about these basic phones in a very limited manner, so that you don’t stop knocking on the CB door again. The first one is the S6700 (probably the herd leader) which has a dual-band HSDPA slider with a 2.4-inch QVGA display. The elevating part is a 3 megapixel camera with auto-focus. Dual-LED flash, GPS and 120MB of internal memory support makes the phone ordinary as expected. Thank god they do have place for a microSDHC card. Following the S6700 is the C5510 with a 2MP camera, a slightly smaller 2.2” QVGA screen and the microSDHC finds a house here as well.

Rumored Sprint, Verizon launch dates for the BlackBerry Tour 9630

June 29th, 2009

BlackBerry Tour 9630

The last we heard about the upcoming release of the BlackBerry Tour 9630 we were still missing quite a few details, basically all we had was that the Tour was headed to Sprint and Verizon and that it was going to be priced at $199 with Sprint.

Thankfully, over the weekend a few more details leaked out.  It now looks like the BlackBerry Tour is going to be available on July 12 and July 20 with Verizon Wireless and Sprint respectively.  As far as that $199 price tag, it looks like that will be the same for both carriers.  Of course, both carriers will also expect a two-year agreement in order to get that pricing.

That said, none of these details are coming courtesy of the respective carriers, in other words the release dates and pricing are still subject to change.

Motorola Krave ZN4 Review - Introduction

December 21st, 2008

Released earlier this fall, Motorola’s Krave ZN4 from Verizon Wireless joins a strong crowd of competitors in the U.S. touch screen phone market. Unlike the Apple iPhone or the latest BlackBerry Storm, the Krave is no smartphone, but it offers features and design that is unique in its own right.

The Krave touts not one, but two innovative touch screens, a one-of-a-kind design and superior multimedia services including live television from Verizon’s VCAST Mobile TV, Rhapsody music service and the VZ Navigator GPS application.
Despite being a flip phone, the Krave’s transparent cover only enhances the phone’s vibrant 2.8-inch TFT LCD screen underneath. Additional highlights include a 2.0-megapixel camera, MP3 music player software, 3.5mm headset jack, full QWERTY keyboard and Bluetooth 2.0 connectivity.

Motorola unleashed its ear for audio with its latest handset, the MOTOROKR EM35, a sliding-style wireless phone designed to enhance the music and talk experience with new CrystalTalk technology and virtual surround sound. The new technology not only amplifies conversations, but also helps reduce background noise, a bonus when it comes to listening to favorite tracks or making calls in noisy public environments. The phone, available later this quarter, sports built-in dual speakers, stereo Bluetooth and a 3.5mm stereo input jack compatible with top-of-the-line headphones.

You’ll also boost your music cred thanks to the EM35’s robust MOTOMUSIC player, complete with keys to launch and control music on the go. It’s easy to navigate through your entire music library by using the handset’s FastScroll navigation wheel, which lets you select songs, albums and artists, as well as shuffle selections. Users can also listen to tunes while downloading media from the online music store, the ultimate mobile destination for previewing new music, learning about favorite artists and sharing tracks with friends. The EM35 also supports video and podcast files and features an integrated FM radio that uses a Radio Data System to identify artists and songs right on your screen. You can even manage your mobile music at home on your PC with Windows Media Player.

With a fine selection of features built into the stylish handset, the MOTOROKR EM35 will impress more than just music lovers. The phone also features a 3.1 megapixel camera capable of capturing still and video images. Built-in editing functions also lets you share multimedia content online and via the phone’s instant messaging applications. Downloadable applications are also available for monitoring the weather, stocks, breaking news, and sports scores, making the EM35 a leader in audio, entertainment, messaging and talk.

Motorola MOTOZINE ZN5

December 3rd, 2008

T-Mobile’s got you covered with 2 multimedia Motorola phones: first the Moto ROKR E8 for music lovers, and now the MOTOZINE ZN5 for camera buffs. The Zine ZN5 shares the E8’s modern good looks with front faces that look like they’ve been sliced from a slab of industrial metal and slim profiles. But the Zine forgoes the E8’s haptics and dons a Kodak camera back that looks sleek, high quality and convincingly camera-ish. The Zine is definitely a good looking, well made phone.

The image “http://tbn0.google.com/images?q=tbn:j9_Ipb6xoU9ZhM:http://www.phonesreview.co.uk/wp-content/phoneimages/2008/06/motorola-motozine-zn5.jpg” cannot be displayed, because it contains errors.

The MOTOZINE ZN5 is a quad band GSM phone offered by T-Mobile in the US. It has EDGE for data and WiFi that’s there mostly for the included Kodak Easyshare image uploading software (a free service that allows you to upload photos directly to your own web gallery among other things). It has a QVGA display, music player, Bluetooth with A2DP stereo, voice dialing, a very good HTML web browser and most important: a 5 megapixel camera with an autofocus lens and Xenon flash. That’s a very nice package for $99 with a 2 year contract.

The good news in that the Zine ZN5 has an SDHC microSD card slot. The bad news is that it’s under the battery door and you must remove the battery to access the card. As a consolation, you can transfer images using Bluetooth, USB and WiFi and thus not need to remove the card. Motorola and T-Mobile state that the max supported capacity is 4 gigs, though the SDHC standard goes higher, hmmm.
