Check it out!

Its got the latest reviews and comparisons between the latest Tech!

Some of my latest include the Nexus 10 vs the iPad 4 !

Nexus's Everywhere!!!

In spite of the Hurricane Google went ahead and announced there new line up of Nexus devices.... one word.... Drooling!

Firstly lets start with the Nexus 4 , the newly announced Nexus phone from Google, yes, this phone can and does compete directly with the iPhone 5! Check out the specs below:

Full specs:

• Chipset: Qualcomm Snapdragon™ S4 Pro processor with 1.5GHz Quad-Core Krait CPUs
• Operating System: Android 4.2, Jelly Bean
• Network: 3G (WCDMA), HSPA+
• Display: 4.7-inch WXGA True HD IPS Plus (1280 x 768 pixels)
• Memory: 8GB / 16GB
• RAM: 2GB
• Camera: 8.0MP rear / 1.3MP HD front
• Battery: 2,100mAh Li-Polymer (embedded) / Talk time: 15.3 hours / Standby: 390 hours
• Size: 133.9 x 68.7 x 9.1mm
• Weight: 139g
• Other: Wireless charging, NFC

Now looking at all these specs, we were all expecting a £500 price tag as we always get with these high end smartphone... BUT Google smashed the pricing wars and priced the 8gb at £239 and the 16gb at £279

These prices are CRAZY and are half of what you would pay with the iPhone 5! and in my opinion your getting a better phone!

Moving on to the next Nexus device, we see the Nexus 10 , which, as we guessed is a 10 inch Nexus tablet 

Now im just going to go ahead and post the specs below and let them dazzle for a second:

• Display: 10.055” 2560 x 1600 (300 ppi) WQXGA, HD PLS w/ Corning Gorilla Glass 2
• Dimensions: 6.99 in (177.6 mm) x 10.39 in (263.9 mm) x 0.35 in (8.9 mm)
• Weight: 1.33 lbs (603 g)
• Camera (Main): 5MP, 1080p video
• Camera (Front): 1.9MP, 720p video
• Memory: 16 GB or 32 GB
• Processor: Dual-core A15 Eagle
• GPU: Mali T604
• RAM: 2GB
• OS: Android 4.2 (Jelly Bean)
• Battery: 9,000 mAh Lithium Polymer
• Wireless Dual-band Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g/n (MIMO+HT40)
• Dual-side NFC (Android Beam)
• Micro HDMI
• 3.5mm headphone jack
• Bluetooth
• Sensors Accelerometer, Compass, Ambient light, Gyroscope, Pressure, GPS
• Standby: up to 500 hours
• Music playback: up to 90 hours
• Video playback: up to 9 hours
• Web browsing: up to 7 hours

Make note of that AMAZING resolution , and YES , that correct, it beats the iPad4s "retina" resolution and PPI ! This is a tablet with "the highest resolution on the planet" 

The dual core inside this thing is also the strongest SOC that money can buy at the moment! 

price stands at £319 for 16gb and £389 for 32gb.. again this price point smashes the iPads price, and you get a higher res screen 

Lastly , we knew about the Nexus 7 before, but now they have released a 32gb model and a model with hspa+ ! so get your data on if you want it! 

the nexus 4 and nexus 10 are to be released on November the 13th! so keep an eye out!

iPad Mini ------ Disappointing!

So Apple finally released the iPad mini yesterday , and man, am i disappointed!

This thing is basically the ipad 2 , but smaller, 

SPECS

-7.9 inch 1024 x 768 - 163 ppi

- A5 Dual core processor

-5mp rear camera 

1.2mp front camera

weight 308 grams

not only are these specs down right boring and bland, but the price for the cheapest model comes in it a $329 !!!!

I thought they were trying to compete with the Nexus 7 , but with that price point, i think its silly!

NEWS ABOUT BLOG 

If you are interested in my blog , alot of the content is moving over to youtube . So check out my channel here

http://www.youtube.com/user/oode?feature=mhee


I of course will still be undating my blog, however if you prefer visual effects and voice overs ;-) check it out 

Galaxy S3 mini!!! Its official!

Well Well,  the Galaxy s3 Mini is going to make its debut at an event in Germany tomorrow..

JK SHIN the mobile chief of the company has come out and said there is a demand for a smaller version "in Europe"  ... so apparently Europeans have smaller hands... well i know i do , so im happy about this! 

Its likely going to be a 4 inch device , hopefully with the same spec as the original although we will have to wait and see tomorrow if thats the case!

Pricing we still don't know, but this will all come clear tomorrow ! 

Whos excited about this device! i know i am, hopefully they price this right and keep the internals basically the same as the favourite S3 4.8

Check back here tomorrow for more updates!

LG Nexus Leaked Photos!




So its all but confirmed that LG will be making a Nexus phone, and its probably this! so what do we think?
This is a pre-production model and on the back it says hardware revision v1.0 so it is possible that this is not going to be the final build

It should also be noted that its running android 4.1.2 not 4.2 ... so most likely this android version is going to be very small consisiting bug fixes and things like that.

Another Nexus Rumor--- LG OPTIMUS G Nexus?!

                                

Alright guys, here we go again..... Now this has been rumoured to be the next Nexus device.... Anyone else get the feeling that we are seeing alot of rumours from alot of different OEMs... maybe these are the 5 nexus devices that were rumored earlier in the year..

Either way, if this comes out, ill be very excited...  SPECS-

-S4 PRO (quad core)
-2gb ram
-720p display
-adreno 320 graphics
-IPS+ HD display
-13mp camera


There is also rumours of the next iteration of android 4.2 (jelly bean? or keylime pie)

Most likely, its going to be an incremental update, project butter v2 etc... but interestingly it may have a "customization centre" where you can choose stock android, or another OEMs skin... useful ? who knows but customization is always a nice choice to have.

Another "feature" is they may be modifying the home screens to be "tabs"... now that is as little as i know about it, so your best guess is the same as mine, but lets hope they don't ruin home screens as its such a massive feature of android and has been there since day one

I can bet anything we will hear something solid about the next Nexus, or Nexi if you will in the next 30 days... so watch out for that !

The Droid Incredible X will feature a 5-inch 1080p display running a Snapdragon S4 Proprocessor. It’s also said to come with a 12 MP rear camera and a 2 MP front-facing camera, with 64 GB of internal storage..

This again is just a rumor, so lets not get crazy about this,  We are expecting to hear something about a new Nexus device soon as it is coming up to the 1 year anniversary of the galaxy nexus ..

5 inch too big?

-Snapdragon s4 pro quadcore processor running at 1.5ghz!!

if this is true, its going to to be a beast! We know what the s4 pro can do ( its the best CPU +GPU out at the moment running the new adreno 320 graphics )

if 1080p display is true, its going to put the pixel density in the 400s!!

This device will be the king of phones in terms of performance !

i hope so!

I can tell you it smashes everything out there

Look what i found in my draw!


Check out the video.... you wont regret it !

The FIND 5.... 1080p... 441 PPI

Theres not a great deal we know about the company Oppo... but i can tell you this.. .This device has amazing specs!

-1080p display

- 5 inch screen

- 441 PPI!!!

The biggest thing to note here is the PPI... the "all amazing" retina display is 326 PPI...... so yea.. this 441 PPI display, is going to look amazing! 

LOL Samsung decide to go after Apple with an interesting advert for the s3:

iPhone 5...... What Apple missed out

So the iPhone 5 is finally here, here are a few things we know will definitely happen.....

1) It will sell 20million+ in the first month
2)Ifans will love it no matter what

Now i am not going to slate the next gen iPhone because i think Apple make good hardware and good products,
Im also not going to paint every Apple user with the same brush, a lot of my friends are Apple users and they dont idolise a phone!
however, its very annoying when Apple "fanboys" say its the perfect phone and there is no way it could be better.... well if that were true, why do you buy the next one every time!

You may also remember the argument that all Apple fanboys  swore by, in that 3.5inch was the perfect size... blah blah blah... sorry to tell you then... but your beloved company has bumped up the screen size to 4inch! so obviously they thought different ...

Anyway... Check out my youtube video on the 8 features that the Apple iPhone missed out on:


http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bDg6xleRRfU&feature=player_embedded

Apple Lies about the iPhone 5 

Ok, Ok , so its not as dramatic as the Title seems, but its still valid!

In the keynote apple touted that the iPhone 5 is the thinnest smartphone in the world.....  it seems they did not do their research!

Now the phones that are thinner are not exactly the iPhone Killers .... infact you may not have heard of them at all 

Model                                                                                Thickness                    Weight      Availability

Oppo Finder	6.7mm	125g	Soon
Fujitsu Arrows F-07D	6.7mm	105g	Yes

Both These smartphones are thinner than the newly announced iPhone 5...

And although these are not the best devices in the world, they are still thinner ! so the claims are false!

               Iphone 5 Announced ! 

So we finally have the next generation Iphone to ponder over ....

Specs

-4 inch IPS 1136 x 640 Display --------- 326 PPi

-1gb ram

-8 megapixel Camera ( New sensor)

-720p Front facing camera . 1.9mp

-LTE 

-Dual-band Wifi

-NanoSIM

-112grams

-123.8x58.6x7.6mm

They have also changed the dock connector to  smaller "lighting" port ... great for transfer speed.... bad for all your old accessories... you will now to to hand over more cash to buy an adapter!

Let me know what you guys think, is it worth the upgrade? 

is 4inch enough?

Has Apple forgotten how to innovate?

The floor is yours!
