Microsoft stores supposedly taking pre-orders for the white Nokia Lumia 900
We don’t have an official launch date for the Nokia Lumia 900, but that hasn’t stopped Microsoft from accepting pre-orders for the Windows Phone handset. According to recent reports from SlashGear and wmpoweruser, it’ll cost you $25 to secure yourself a Lumia 900, which is available in black, cyan and, surprisingly, white. The original press release for the 900 says the handset will be available in cyan and black only. Though Nokia announced the white Lumia 800, there’s been no mention of a white Lumia 900 until now. Regardless of color, the Lumia 900 is a gem of a phone. It has a … Read more

HTC Ville smiles for the camera … again [Said to pack a Qualcomm S4 processor inside]
HTC’s Ville is quickly becoming one of the worst kept secrets in the mobile industry. Last week a video surfaced on the internets showing off the unannounced smartphone, and while it was good enough to demonstrate how thin the Ville is, it wasn’t exactly what one would call sharp. Now though, thanks to the Chinese website ePrice, we have four new images of the Ville that are bright as day and paint a good picture of what we can expect. In short, it’s the HTC Sensation that was announced last … Read more

Apple’s Vice President of iPhone and iPod engineering leaves the company
David Tupman, another Apple employee who not many people know about, has just left the company. His last title at Apple before resigning was “Vice President of iPhone and iPod engineering”, he has over 70 patents in his name, and he spent over a decade at what is now considered the world’s biggest smartphone vendor. Now people leave companies for various reasons, so we don’t want to suggest that he got bored of Apple or didn’t agree with the where the company was going with the iPhone, but unless this … Read more

Samsung hosting an event on March 22nd in France, is that when we’ll see the Galaxy S III?
Earlier this month Samsung announced that they would not be showing off the Samsung Galaxy S III at Mobile World Congress. Their reasoning was that it doesn’t make sense to announce a device so early in the year when it’s due to hit store shelves during the end of the second quarter. Some of you guys freaked out, but we tried to remind you of what happened in 2011: Samsung announced the Galaxy S II in February, it hit Europe in May, and then it finally launched in America during … Read more

Nokia 801: Are they seriously going to release a Symbian device that looks like the Lumia 800?
It’s bad enough that the Nokia Lumia 800 looks exactly like the Nokia N9, now rumors suggest that Nokia is going to release a Symbian running device called the Nokia 801. Said smartphone is a picture perfect image of the N9 and Lumia 800, except that it has a 4 inch screen that does 640 x 360 pixels, 12 megapixel camera, and will be the first Symbian device that can record 1080p video. Under the hood there’s a 1.4 GHz processor paired up with 512 MB of RAM, though we … Read more

Droid RAZR MAXX temporarily out of stock on Verizon’s website
The DROID RAZR MAXX is obviously selling like hot cupcakes these days with Verizon Wireless at one point listing the popular devices as out of stock (along with the LG Revolution and Motorola DROID X2). However, the carrier and Motorola must’ve been working round the clock to fix this “injustice” and now the DROID RAZR MAXX is back with a small label that says “Will ship by 2/9.” That’s two days from now, so if you want the thicker version of the RAZR (with bigger 3300 mAh battery), you may … Read more

Why Siri may never land on the iPhone 4
Audience is a technology company that makes advanced voice and audio processing chips for mobile phones. Its products reduce background noise which makes talking on the phone pleasurable and using voice commands possible. Audience worked with HTC to put the A1026 processor in the Nexus One, and helped Apple integrate its chip into the iPhone 4. A recent S-1 form filed with the SEC for Audience’s upcoming IPO revealed a version of this audio technology also made its way into the iPhone 4S. Instead of a dedicated chip like the … Read more

How’s that ‘big and bulky’ strategy working out for HTC?
CFO of HTC Winston Yung admitted the company “dropped the ball” in 2011 and its high-end devices are not selling as well as expected. This is due mostly to HTC’s hardware being substantially thicker than the competition and often having poor battery life. “While short term performance may not meet the results as expected, we have gained further experience and advancement in the areas of brand management and product innovation,” CEO Peter Chou stated in a press release. “These fundamental strengths and the groundwork we have laid will take us … Read more

Nokia unveils the white Lumia 800
Nokia used its Conversations blog to unveil the new white Lumia 800. Under the hood, the handset is identical to the cyan, magenta and black version which launched late last year. On the surface, you will get a snowy white casing that nicely accents the curved black display. According to Nokia, this isn’t some cheap spray-on job either. Instead, the phone’s unibody polycarbonate shell is dyed all the way through. Judging from the images release by Nokia, those who prefer blanc to black will be wowed by this handset. Nokia didn’t … Read more

We can also expect something similar to the Galaxy Nexus’ display, which is a 4.65-inch Super AMOLED HD panel. Now we’re hearing that Samsung’s next flagship phone may come in at a ridiculously thin 7mm thick. … Read more
