It’s been a while since we last heard anything from Philips. Today we caught their new device, which most us won’t be able to get. The reason is simple – it’s one of those smartphones destined for China and I assume some other Far East countries. That, however, doesn’t mean we should be sorry about…
Philips unveiled a new version of its GoGear Connect media player. Powered by Android 2.3 Gingerbread, GoGear Connect 3.5 comes with Wi-Fi connectivity, 720p HD video support, Philips’ FullSound and Surround for Movies technologies. In other words, it’s an Android smartphone without cellular radio, so you’ll be able to use most apps from the Android…
Aside from the new Android-ready speaker docks, Philips also announced a new GoGear media player. The GoGear Connect 3 is an Android 2.3 Gingerbread-based device with a 3.2-inch capacitive touchscreen and Wi-Fi connectivity, allowing its owners to expand its functionality with third-party apps. Also included with the GoGear Connect 3 is a Pandora-like app for…

It’s a solid mid-range slider with features that include a 5-megapixel camera, quad-band GSM radio, and we guess Bluetooth, media player and a microSD memory card slot. The other device comes from Philips and…
Philips is out with a new dual SIM phone, part of its Xenium family – X510. The all-touchscreen device is made for markets of Russia, China and other parts of Asia where this functionality (having two SIM cards working at the same time) is well appreciated. Feature wise, we’re talking about a low-to-mid range handset,…
The deceptively simple Philips Xenium X312 will have a month of battery life, according to this render’s front screen. The few other specs to leak out include a modest QVGA display, Bluetooth, FM radio, 2 megapixel camera, and a microSD memory card slot.
