Nokia N9 3.9 inch MeeGo Smartphone Announced
Posted on by

The long awaited MeeGo smarpthone Nokia N9 was finally announced and by the looks of things it was worth waiting for. It is built around a 3.9 inch touchscreen (854 x 480 px) and packs a 1 GHz processor, 1 GB RAM, 16 GB or 64 GB internal storage, WiFi b/g/n, Bluetooth 2.1, GPS and 8 megapixel camera. All this will be wrapped in an attractive polycarbonate shell measuring 116 x 61 x 12 mm and weighing 135 g. It will be available in black, pink or blue colour option when it launches in Q4 2011. Looking at the operating system itself Nokia finally did a decent job of coming up with a touch friendly OS so it is sad that it decided to cease development of any future MeeGo devices.

Nokia E6 QWERTY Smarthpone Hands-on Video

The last time a Nokia got top marks for a smartphone was probably for the Nokia E72 and E71 QWERTY smartphones. So it is good to see that Nokia will refresh the lineup with a Nokia E6 which is essentially all the we loved about the E71 and E72 plus the capacitive multi-touch screen. The 2.46 inch screen might sound small but with a resolution of 640 x 480 pixels it is an absolute delight to use. Yes, Symbian isn’t perfect but since this isn’t a full-on large touchscreen smartphone that is not much of an issue. If you are after a great QWERTY smartphone and BlackBerry just doesn’t do it for you that the Nokia E6 is definitely the one to watch. Check the video, photos and full specifications after the break.

If you are looking for a Google Android touchscreen smartphone but don’t like the QWERTY HTC ChaCha then you are in luck as HTC also announced the HTC Salsa that is essentially an HTC Wildfire S with a dedicated Facebook button that enables you to share photos, videos and pretty much anything else your fingers desire faster then any other smartphone currently available. The specifications are pretty much the same as the HTC Wildfire S except for the Facebook button, a front facing camera and a slightly bigger 3.4 inch (320 x 480 px) touchscreen, however there is no integrated GPS with the Salsa so if you need the navigation you will be better of with a Wildfire S.

We continue our HTC coverage with a world-first Google Android smartphone with a dedicated Facebook button. As for heavy typing touchscreen-only keyboard isn’t the best option HTC opted for a full QWERTY keyboard for HTC ChaCha. But worry not it still installed a touchscreen to keep your fingers happy. The dedicated Facebook button offers a quick way to share anything with only a touch of the button including photos and videos. The screen is 2.6 inch and sports 480 x 320 resolution which is perfectly adequate for this size, while 600 MHz processor and 512 MB RAM should provide an overall smooth and fast performance. It will run Google Android 2.4 and HTC Sense UI.

HTC Desire is not the only one getting a revival so is the low end Wildfire – welcome HTC Wildfire S. Compared to its predecessor it’s 5 mm shorter thanks to the omission of the optical trackball and even 13 grams lighter. The resolution of the 3.2 inch screen capacitive touchscreen was bumped up from 240 x 320 pixels to 320 x 480 pixels which brings it in line with HTC Legend and HTC Hero. This move probably means we can say farewell to both of them as they will probably be replaced by the Wildfire S. Other improvements are increased RAM from 384 MB to 512 MB and a faster processor 600 MHz compared to the previous that was running at 528 MHz.

HTC refreshed the HTC Desire which was one if its most popular smartphones with HTC Desire S. It is very similar to its predecessor but is 5 grams lighter and the optical trackball has been ditched. There are some improvements in hardware as well with increased internal phone storage from 512 MB to 1.1 GB, RAM has been increased to from 576 MB to 768 MB but the 3.7 inch screen with resolution of 480 x 800 px and the 1 GHz processor remain the same as with Desire. It is also good hear that its 3G data speed has been increased to 14.4 Mbps for download and 5.76 Mbps for upload. Multimedia fans will also be happy to hear that HTC added a front-facing camera for video chat and expanded the video codec support to include .avi and .xvid so there will be no need to convert most of the movies that you downloaded.

Sony Ericsson Xperia Play Android Smartphone Announced

It’s a smartphone. It’s a PSP. It’s what we have been waiting for – or at least that’s what Sony is promising us. Even though we work hard at BitDynasty we do like to play video games and we still have yet to see a proper smartphone for playing video games. Thanks to Sony our wait could be finally over. Sony Ericsson Xperia Play is a 4 inch (480 x 854 px) Google Android 2.3 smartphone/portable gaming device. As other Sony Ericsson smartphones it features the Timeline UI layer which we aren’t that crazy about but because it has a proper slide-out gaming controller we would definitely consider buying it. Now all it needs to win us and other gamers over is a strong gaming portfolio that it currently lacks as Sony Ericsson was showing of only a few titles at MWC. Check the videos, photos and full specifications after the break.

Yesterday we posted HP Pre and today we would like to introduce you to its little brother – the HP Veer. With HP making the Pre bigger they didn’t want to leave out those who prefer smaller smartphones. The HP Veer pretty much looks like the Pre but features a 2.6 inch screen with a resolution of 320 x 400 pixels and a 800 MHz Snapdragon 7230 processor. Add 5 megapixel digital camera, 8 GB of internal storage, accelerometer, touchstone compatibility and mobile hotspot support and you got yourself a great little smartphone and due to its small size it looks absolutely adorable. If HP decides to release it in pink or white it will definitely be a success with the ladies. Like for the Pre and TouchPad HP kept silent regarding any info on the release date and pricing. Check the videos, photos and full specifications after the break.
