Samsung Galaxy Note 8.0 official: 1.6GHz Exynos 4 Quad, 1280 x 800 display, HSPA+ 21, Android Jelly Bean 4.1.2

We knew another Note was coming. After all, Samsung Mobile head JK Shin confirmed the news back in January. But here at Mobile World Congress in Barcelona, the tablet's finally been made official. If you haven't already inferred from its name, Samsung's latest S Pen entry boasts an 8-inch 1,280 x 800 TFT display. That puts it on par with the Note 10.1's resolution, although here users will obviously benefit from a more eye-pleasing pixel density (189ppi) and smaller 210.8mm x 135.9mm x 7.95mm (8.3 x 5.4 x 0.31 inches) footprint. Beneath that love it or hate it sealed plastic chassis, lies the company's Exynos 4 Quad processor clocked at 1.6GHz and paired with 2GB RAM, radios for WiFi a/b/g/n, Bluetooth 4.0, A-GPS, GLONASS and HSPA+ 21 (850/900/1900/2100MHz), up to 32GB of internal storage (microSD expansion available), in addition to a 4,600mAh battery. And, as with most Android products rolling out as of late, the Note 8.0 will ship with version 4.1.2 of Jelly Bean onboard -- skinned with the requisite TouchWiz UX.

Consider the Note 8.0 a hybridized offering of the GS III, Note II and Note 10.1's software innovations. Along with the familiar suite of S Pen apps (S Note and S Planner), Samsung's new tab also includes support for Smart Stay, Multi-Window and Air View functionality, Popup video and note, as well as AllShare Play and Cast. Also of note (sorry) are two third-party apps that Samsung's pre-loaded onto the tab: Flipboard (customized to take advantage of the S Pen's hover and preview capabilities for headlines) and Awesome Note, which is debuting as a one-year exclusive. And, in a major first for the Note line, users will finally have the ability to control those Android navigation keys (back and menu) with the S Pen.

Because this is a mid-sized tablet, Samsung's positioning the Note 8.0 to double as an e-reader and living room companion. To that end, the Note 8.0 includes "reading mode," which adjusts the LCD display for an easier on the eyes prolonged reading experience (compatible with third-party ereader apps) and Smart Remote, a Peel-powered application that's part visual program guide and part remote control (using the inbuilt IR blaster). Oh, and did we mention the Note 8.0's also a phone? Well, the HSPA+ global model is, anyway. LTE and WiFi-only models are currently in the works, with that latter variant headed to US shores.

Outside of a Q2 global launch, Samsung hasn't yet shared any concrete info around the Galaxy Note 8.0's pricing and availability. Details on that end should be forthcoming, though we don't expect the company to share that information this week in Barcelona. In the meanwhile, check out our full hands-on for a more intimate look.

HTC One Syncs From iPhone Backup

 Are you the only one who thinks that the recently introduced HTC One, when flipped over its back, does seem to resemble that of the iPhone 5 from Apple? Perhaps, but assuming you have been an iOS user for a fair number of years now, and in some sort of sorcery did HTC manage to sway your opinion to jump aboard the Android bandwagon with the HTC One, then you can take comfort in knowing that the migration process is not going to be that painful, especially with the latest version of the HTC Sync Manager that is said to deliver support for iPhone backups.

Yes sir, the spanking new Sync Manager that will accompany the HTC One is capable of processing a backup of a user’s iPhone, mining that file for all the relevant data and information within, before transferring it to the appropriate fields in your new Android-powered flagship device. Media, calendar entries, and even saved text messages will also be able to make the transition successfully, making platform migration between the two less painful.

LG Optimus L Series II To Be Introduced At MWC

 LG has just made it official: their new Optimus L Series, named L Series II, is going to be presented at Mobile World Congress aka MWC. Like the first edition, the Series II will feature three handsets, the Optimus L3II, L5II and L7II. Each model has a different form-factor, but are built using the same design language. LG promotes the following features: Seamless Layout, Laser-cut contours, Radiant rear design and multi-color LED lighting Home button.Some of the design elements are borrowed from the LG Optimus G, but overall, it’s fair to say that the L-Series is a more affordable option from LG. LG has released the specifications of the Optimus L7II, and this confirms the low-end ambitions of those products. The L7II uses an older Snapdragon 1GHz dual-core processor (MSM8225) and features a 800×480 IPS display. The highlights are: it’s dual-SIM, has Android 4.1 and a 2460mAh battery which should help the phone stay up for a couple of days.

The LG Optimus L has been introduced in February 2012 at Mobile World Congress with the LG Optimus L3. In the following months, two more models were released to the market. Right now, the LG Optimus G remains the top LG smartphone, and its Google variant, the Nexus 4 has been quite successful too. Ubergizmo is an official media partner of Mobile World Congress, so keep an eye on our coverage there.

Optimus L7II Key Specifications
• Chipset: 1GHz Dual-Core (Qualcomm MSM8225)
• Memory: Up to 4GB eMMC / 768MB RAM / Micro SD
• Display: 4.3-inch WVGA IPS
• Camera: Rear 8.0MP with LED Flash / Front VGA

Nokia EOS to launch as "first real PureView Windows Phone" later this year: Report

Ever since the launch of the first Nokia PureView device, there have been speculations that Nokia may launch a similar camera smartphone based on the Windows Phone OS. And if reports by The Verge are to be believed then this smartphone could already be in the works.
The tech blog claims that Nokia is currently working on a smartphone that is codenamed "EOS" and it sports a camera sensor, which is similar to the one that is on Nokia's 808 PureView. Furthermore, it claims that unlike the recent devices in the Lumia series, the EOS smartphone might sport an aluminium exterior instead of polycarbonate.

The Verge also states that the EOS is expected to be a new flagship device from the company that will launch later in the year. For now, there are no more details available regarding specifications of the device.

Nokia had first showcased its 808 PureView at the Mobile World Congress (MWC) 2012. This smartphone garnered a lot of attention, thanks to the massive 41-megapixel camera sensor that it has on-board. Other features of the smartphone include a 4-inch 360x640pixel AMOLED display, 16GB of internal storage, 1.3GHz processor and Nokia Symbian Belle OS.

Nokia 808 PureView debuted in India in June 2012. Its current price is mentioned as Rs. 26,499 but it is currently listed as out of stock on Nokia India official store.

Earlier in the month there were also reports doing the rounds that Nokia is working on a successor to its current flagship smartphone the Lumia 920, which is codenamed "Catwalk". The reports also claimed that this device will come with an aluminium body and will be lighter and thinner than the Lumia 920.

New Samsung ad tells you to take your Note to the office

While Samsung didn’t announce much in terms of mobile devices during its CES press conference, one term that was thrown around a lot was BYOD.



Bring Your Own Device refers to a growing trend among enterprise users of bringing multi-function mobile devices to work, and Samsung wants to be a major part of it going forward.

The most recent Samsung ad aims to highlight the benefits of using a Galaxy device for office work, such as the Note II’s multitasking feature and AES encryption.



What do you think? Will Samsung’s new SAFE features make their devices more appealing to business users?

10 Reasons BlackBerry 10 will Save RIM

We previously saw Forbes list their 5 ways BlackBerry 10 will beat the iPhone. Seeking Alpha is now putting forth their 10 reasons BlackBerry 10 will save Research In Motion:
1. 80 million subscribers - Research in Motion, Ltd is reported as having 80 million subscribers. These subscribers have used RIM and its services despite being promised a new smartphone previously and being disappointed; 80 million subscribers who are still around and loyal to RIM. Apple lost its loyalty through its planned obsolescence and as reported here. Anecdotally, the reporter spoke to a master electrician and small business owner, who was thrilled to know that Blackberry had a new smartphone. The master electrician said “thank you for letting me know, I have an upgrade on my plan and I was a heavy user of Blackberry back in the day.” RIM is also present in emerging markets, where it can compete effectively as the newcomer on the block. There is a reason Apple was speaking to China Mobile.

You can’t buy consumer loyalty. RIM does not need too.

2. Secure e-mail - BlackBerry is reported as having secure e-mail servers. If you ever wondered if your handheld device was secure, well, BlackBerry is touted as having some of the best security in mobile cellular technology.

3. Dual Profiles or a Business Telephone with a Secret Identity - BlackBerry 10 is reported to have the ability to have a profile for work and personal profile. These profiles are not accessible to each other and will run separately. Thus, a BlackBerry 10 user may use their telephone for work-related purposes and still have a personal profile separate from their work life.

4. Early Release of BlackBerry 10 to “Influencers” - RIM has early released BlackBerry 10 to “influencers,” i.e. people who are likely to influence their organizations or others to purchase the telephone. RIM has a great marketing idea here, really who does not want to have the newest cool gadget before anyone else could get it.

5. Innovative OS - a.) a Digital Keyboard that Learns From Your Mistakes – the BlackBerry 10 has a virtual keyboard that learns how you strike the keys and assist you in typing. Everyone, well nearly everyone, is not able to touch type with both hands on a cellular telephone keyboard as a computer keyboard. So, mistakes are common. RIM thought ahead and designed software to help you. b.) Multiple Windows Open at Once with Social Media Just a Slide Away – the BlackBerry 10 is reported as having the ability to run at least (4) open windows which can then be brought to the foreground. The BlackBerry 10 is reported as having the ability to run a window and with the slide of the finger expose social media, such as e-mail, Twitter, and Facebook along the margin of the screen which show messages received and allow for access to said applications.

7. VISA approved Blackberry 10′s NFC or “electronic wallet” - the BlackBerry 10 is reported that it may support use of NFC to use your VISA card to pay for items.

8. Target marketing to Business and Government - RIM may be targeting business users of telephones as well as government where theenhanced features such as pre-approved government security and as stated above should sell well. If so, then RIM likely has an edge with business and government users when compared to an Apple iPhone 5 or Samsung Galaxy S III. Business and government users want security, ease of use, functionality, and ability to communicate, which Blackberry 10 appears to offer. Business and government users are not as much looking for the entertainment and other functions present in iPhone 5 and Samsung Galaxy S III.

9. Reported Able to Communicate to iOS and Android environments- the BlackBerry 10 is reported to be able to communicate with the iPhone 5 and Samsung Galaxy S III which may mean that beyond a hardware win that RIM may likewise have a software win, and perhaps software market.

10. QWERTY Physical keyboard model too - The BlackBerry received its name from the QWERTY physical keyboard. Users of BlackBerry were lightning fast using the keyboard. Many, many people would like a return to this physical keyboard. Having traveled in Southeast Asia, the reporter will state that Southeast Asians like to text, a lot. Said reporter has seen the speed at which older models of cellular telephones are used to generate lengthy text messages. Imagine a new BlackBerry 10 with a full QWERTY physical keyboard. Maybe the QWERTY keyboard is old school, but it is an old school which this reporter believes will sell.

RIM has very likely winner in the BlackBerry 10 because it has loyal customers to sell to who will likely upgrade, new features which allow it to penetrate business and government markets relatively untouched by iPhone and Android, and have software advances regarding security, managing iOS and Android software along with a VISA pre-approved NFC payment option. RIM is likely to surprise everyone.

It is really nice to see these publications list ways BlackBerry 10 is going to beat this phone or it will be a success for this reason. Let us know in the comments if you agree with these 10 reasons.
