Acer Iconia Touchbook Is Here!!

           Hello gadgets lovers, in this post I am mentioning the recently launched Acer Iconia Touchbook, which is a member of the Iconia family. 

           In Acer's own website, it says that 
           "Acer Iconia is the world’s most advanced touchbook. Dual screens. Full touch interface. A truly unique experience."

           In this UNIQUE laptop, Acer has mentioned 2 screens, as the TOUCH says... and the lower screen is more responsive than the main screen (as the reviews say). The lower screen is made of a Gorilla Glass, so scratches are less-than-rare. Both the screens measure 14" diagonally. Well, the HDD space and RAM memory will vary from country to country and budget-to-budget. Besides, this 'Dual-Screen' laptop runs on Windows 7 OS and will sport Intels 2nd Gen-Core processors.The price of this 'Touchbook' is about INR. 70,000 (Ouch!!!)


            But many times, this laptop may be sluggish in performance, and there are many Cons of this device. So the regular laptops with Physical Keybaord would be a better deal....

Verdict: Instead of spending Rs.70,000 I would recommend to buy a HP Pavilion G42 laptop with Core i3 processor, a 3GB DDR-3 RAM, and a 320/500 GB HDD for only 33,000 Rs.
                    And,in the remaining money you can buy a Samsung Galaxy Tab or Apple iPad :) so smile....

Hope, you like this post also ;)

Samsung Corby 2 S3850

Today, I went to the Samsung Shop. I was just roaming inside it and found the Samsung Corby 2 there. I asked the person there to show me one dummy version of that phone. At the first sight, I thought that this phone is the younger brother of the recently launched Samsung Galaxy Pop s5570, and ran on Samsung's own BADA operating system, but I was wrong. It just uses the Samsung's native TouchWiz 3.0 for Android and BADA. 

Okay, now let me tell you about its specfications. Samsung Corby 2, is actually targeted on the youth (as the original Corby was), so its main attractions are social networking bookmarks on the home-screen and nice quality of multimedia stuffs. But this time it has WiFi for more crispier web browsing and social networking. But  3g is missing here. The phone sports a 3.14" capacitive display with a resolution of 240 X 320, which is a disappointment here. This phone has a 3.5mm jack for earphone and line-out for other speakers or your favorite earphones. The other disappointment in the device is that it sports only 1000 mAH powered battery. But for multimedia and social networking this device is a steal...
Overall, the phone is nice deal in the range of Rs. 6000-7000.. And the most impressive thing here, that this phone comes with 2 back covers bundled in the pack. 
If there are any queries, you can ask me in the comments section.

I Hope you all like my posts....

Samsung ES30 Overview

                        Samsung, as we all know is one of the best companies in any budget as well as high range electronics. Samsung has added a new digital camera in its Compact camera range, 'The Samsung ES30'. Samsung ES30 is a SMART camera which comes in a TIGHT POCKET BUDGET. This camera sports a 12.2MP autofocus lens, which performs in a SUPERB way. As well, it records videos in VGA resolution (640x480), I personally would have appreciated it if it had atleast 720p HD video recording capabilities, though as I mentioned it's a Compact camera and it gives you most of the things which a DSLR or a SLR camera can. It also has macro with optical zooming function in video recording, so its a boon....(according 2 my needs)
                          Now let me tell you about the photography capabilities of this 'smart-cam'. It has 5x optical zoom, and it sports a 3.0" LCD display. Not only that, Samsung ES30 also has a smart-auto mode, in which this camera gives you option of 16 various auto-scene-modes. This camera works on 2 AA sized batteries. The photos clicked on this camera will give resolution of 4000x3000 pixels, in which the photos look sharp and crisp.

Verdict: At Rs. 5000, Samsung ES30 is a KILLER deal......I would recommend it only for PHOTOS, not for video shooting, though it gives you better results. You should also see the camera's from Canon and Sony.

LG Optimus One, More Than A Smartphone

            LG is one of the best companies making smartphones in the world. Now-a-days, it has an Android series also, i.e- Optimus series. The first phone in this series was the Lg Optimus gt540, which had a 3.0" resistive touchscreen with resolution of 320x480p. It sported a 3.0MP camera at the backside. Besides, it had a 600MHz processor and was based on Google Android 1.6 Donut. But after it LG launched the Optimus One P500, which has a 3.2" capacitive multi-touch screen with the resolution of 320x480p.
             This phone runs on Android 2.2 FroYo, which can be futher upgradeable to 2.3 GingerBread version. It also has a 3.5mm standard audio jack at the top, so you can switch to your favorite headphones. It also similarly sports a 3MP camera at the back, but this time it is auto-focus. Over-all this phone is a nice deal as its priced near about Rs. 12000-13000.

Apple iPad 2, the successor of its first hit in tablet market, the Apple iPad has now made its stores in India also. But the main con here is, that Apple is going to fly only LIMITED stocks in our country. It will be sold on the basis of- 'First Come & First Serve' technique.


              After this, there is a hope for the original iPad to get cheaper.
The prices are given below: -

32G Wi-Fi: Rs. 34,500
64GB Wi-Fi: Rs. 39,500

Leaked- Micromax A70

                Micromax entered the Android market Andro A60, which had a resistive 2.8" QVGA display and ran on android 2.1 Eclair, which is not upgradeable to 2.2. But here are some leaked information of the 'to be launched' Micromax A70, successor of the A60.


                      According to GsmArena.com, this phone will have a 3.2" capacitive display with a resolution of 320x480p. Besides, it will sport a 5mp autofocus camera and a VGA front-facing camera for 3g video calls, a nice job done by Micromax(if launched).
                    Talking about the looks and styling, from the front it looks as this phone has taken a crisp from HTC. There are no information provided about the processor and the ram. But I personally think (according to the rumours) that this phone will be available at a price range from Rs.7000 to Rs.9000. But, have to wait for the launch date.



Samsung Galaxy Pop(mini) s5570

              After HTC, Samsung comes into mind for its value-for-money range of power packed Galaxy Android smartphones. Samsung kept its foot in the 'Touch Screen' market with the launch of its very own phone named TouchWiz. Samsung started its Galaxy series with the launch the 'First Apple iPhone Killer' phone, the Galaxy 'S'.
Now, this Korean company has launched many Galaxy phones after it, from high-range to mid-range.

               Samsung has recently launched the Galaxy Pop s5570, also known as Galaxy mini in many countries. Priced at Rs.8700, this smartphone sports a QVGA(320x240p) capacitive 3.14" touch screen with multi-touch support, so that you can easily pinch-n-zoom. Besides, it has a 3.15mp camera which gives JUST fine photos. As mentioned above, this is a mid range smartphone, but it can do everything what a smartphone can do. It works on Android 2.2 FroYo OS.
                           
               My verdict for this mobile is, priced at Rs.8700, it is a BEST DEAL, you can ever get...But don't go according to me..check it out first and then buy the phone...
