Samsung Galaxy Win launching in India as Galaxy Grand Quattro
Samsung Galaxy Win is coming to India. However, interested folks won’t be able to buy it under that name; rather the Korean company renamed it to Galaxy Grand Quattro. We’re not sure why the name change was needed but what do we know. Anyway, Samsung suggests MSRP of Rs. 17,290 (about $312) though some retailers are offering it for less – around Rs. 16,000 ($289). Specs wise, the Galaxy Win/Grand Quattro comes with a 4.7-inch WVGA screen, 1.2GHz quad-core processor, 5-megapixel camera on the back, 8GB of internal memory, 2,000mAh … Read more

KDDI’s HTC One variant rocks a microSD memory card slot
So, the Chinese won’t be the only one getting the HTC One variant with a microSD card slot. Japan’s KDDI announced a similar device calling it HTC J One (model number HTL22) that also comes with support for microSD cards (of up to 64GB). Rest of the phone’s hardware is pretty much unchanged though we guess there are some tweaks here in there to accommodate for the ever-demanding Japanese mobile market. For instance, there’s the Infrared port on the HTC J One, since that thing is apparently a nice-to-have feature … Read more
