Nokia X5

Nokia X5-01 – Symbian S60 3rd Edition with Full QWERTY, Nokia just officially launched the X5 in Singapore, apparently as a followup to the Twist  and the latest chubby square slider to hit in the past few months after the the Motorola Flipout and Kin One. No, we’re not sure why this form factor is suddenly a Thing either. This guy is actually Nokia’s second X5 –a China-only X5 with a totally different design was announced in April, so that’s nice and confusing. Read the rest of this entry »

nokia n9 possible teaser

Let’s just put this out there: the image above was grabbed from a video that could be an early, leaked teaser for the N9, Nokia’s first handset to run the MeeGo OS. Could be. The production quality of the promo is certainly up to snuff and the industrial design of the slider itself features just enough N8 to make the whole thing seem very plausible.

panasonic toughbook f9

Panasonic’s Toughbook  line has long since offered argonauts a critical level of protection on their mobile machines, but the word “mobile” was subject to interpretation. Pretty much across the board, the Toughbook line has always been fat and chunky, but we’ve been willing to see the beauty on the inside in exchange for being able to toss our machines on the concrete whenever frustrations become too much to stand.

iphone4 vs Samsung

Samsung joined in the attacks on the iPhone 4′s Retina Display with a retort in the Korean media. A spokesperson for Samsung argued that quadrupling the resolution actually had little impact on clarity, at most three to five percent, and that that it would allegedly hike the battery drain by as much as 30 percent.
