Karbonn S1 Titanium

Karbonn S1 Titanium for INR 10,990.00 only

Indian mobile phone manufacturer Karbonn unveiled their Android dual SIM smartphone S1 Titanium’s price tag in their website. It’s INR 10,990.00, appx US$205.00. Not good enough if compared with other Indian mobile brands and too much costly from Chinese brands, but, good choice for mid-range customers.

Karbonn S1 Titanium comes with 1.2 GHz Quad-Core Processor, powerful for multi-tasking or big game. Corporate people or teenage gamers whatever you are, you’ll find S1 Titanium workable. 1GB of RAM enough for power users also. There is 4GB of internal memory to store your most useful apps, work files, games or images or video moments of your beloved ones. You can add up to 32GB of external memory in S1’s microSD card slot to store many more of your works and enjoyments.

Wanna click a beautiful moment? Karbonn S1 Titanium’s 5.0 mega pixel auto focus rear camera will shot anything perfectly from dark night to shiny day as it has LED flash light also.

Karbonn S1 Titanium

Multi-touch capacitive 4.5 inch IPS display screen with 540 x 960 pixels resolution is much better than regular 480 x 800 pixels display. You can watch eye catching movies without irritation, play games vibrantly and work flawlessly hours after hours.

This Android 4.1 Jelly Bean operated dual SIM (GSM+GSM) quad band phone has GPRS/EDGE, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, GPS, USB connectivity. Its 1600 mAh battery will empower up to 4 hours of talk time and 200 hours of stand-by time. Though, only 1600 mAh battery is not enough for today’s high resolution and powerful games or apps because, it’ll drain out quickly and may become very hot. Karbonn should check this matter urgently and improve battery power. It seems they are quite known of this issue as they’ve mentioned in their official website to download Task Killer from Google Play to kill all the unwanted apps running in the background.

It is clear that they are after Micromax A116 Canvas HD, which got fabulous attention recently in Indian mobile arena and within Indian customers. Now it is to see what customers choose from these two similar models. Micromax A116 Canvas HD with better features and higher price or Karbonn S1 Titanium with much lower features with a good amount of discounted price (in terms of comparison with each other), whichever wins customers choice will be a good example of business competition in the history of Indian mobile business.

NVIDIA said, months ago, that the next-generation Tegra mobile platform would be much stronger than Tegra 3, and now we can lay out all the proof anyone could need to believe that.

The codename of the Tegra 4 platform is Wayne, just like Tegra 3 carries the name of Kal-El, like a certain Kryptonian. As odd as it sounds, Kal-El is severely outmatched, or will be. Wayne will be six times more powerful than its predecessor. A roadmap slide depicting the core layout of the SoC (system-on-chip) made its way to Chinese website Chip Hell, somehow.

Next Android OS - KOLACHE

A lot of rumors out there for naming of Android’s next OS. Manu Cornet, one of Google employee ignited the rumor through GooglePlus. He added another android robot with a “pie” like food in hand in one of his post to visualize the evolution of android versions. Thus the rumor hiped so much to guess a name of their next OS version.

As everybody determining there would be another dessert food item to be included as the successor of “Jelly Bean”. And from the past experience and continuity, people guessing there could be “Key Lime Pie” or “KLP”. Previous versions ware Cupcake, Donut, Éclair, Froyo, Gingerbread, Honeycomb, Ice Cream Sandwich and Jelly Bean, so this time they would continue with the letter “K” and here comes the key lime pie. But, Manu Cornet disagreed to confirm anyhow about this naming process.

But, having no 3G, only rear fixed focus camera and no front camera is too complicated for power users to choose this model.

A68 could be found within INR 6500.00 now, though, it was priced much higher and decreased a lot within this short time. In Saholic, we found this A68-Smarty for INR 6490.00. Maybe, it will decrease more by this year ending sale.

Apple MacBook AIR

NOKIA Lumia 510

NOKIA Lumia 510 will step into Indian market next week. It's a good mid-budget touch screen mobile phone. Price will be within INR10000. But, Nokia should have listened to present users buzz. Only 4GB internal memory and NO SD CARD slot possibly won't attract youthful customers. Maybe for those low-end users and corporate customers, who worship brand name as their first choice to get any product, specially tech gadgets.

Though, it's packed with TouchUI and Accelerometer for better enhanced gaming experience, but, lacking of only 256MB RAM will hamper big games to play and present craze for Wi-Fi Hotspot will let them dump this phone also.

iPad mini: Missing in action

What we’re missing from new iPad mini:

1. Retina Display: No doubt about that. Mini should have this instead of IPS display.
2. Flash with rear camera: Definitely man, I think they’ve forgotten to add this.
3. Google Maps: After iPhone 5’s great humiliating failure of Maps app, Cupertino company  should’ve been used Google’s instead.
4. External memory slot: Who will suggest them to add a little slot of external memory!!! Extra memory card not only for storage, but also for file sharing to and from other devices. (Maybe to and from Android products, lol)

HTC One X Plus

HTC One X+ is handy upgrades of its predecessor One X. Not much though.

Here's some salient features of HTC One X+

• Most powerful 1.7 GHz Quad Core Tegra 3 Processor
• Dual HD Camera
• Exclusive built-in Beat Audio Sound
• 1GB RAM and 64GB built-in Memory
