Nokia phone: to debut in China in late 2016

In a current interview in Shanghai, President of Chinese Nokia Telecommunications Mike Wang said that, in the fourth quarter of 2016, Nokia phone brand will be officially back to the market. Besides a mobile device, there is said to be another tablet. Also in the same interview, Nokia emphasized that, it will take them around 2 years after the expiry of the contract with Microsoft to really find their way back through the brand licensing.

Earlier we have seen a leaked image of the alleged Nokia phone P1, which will be produced by Sharp, and shares the design of Sharp Aquos P1 mobile.

After a time of being neglected, Google jumps back in the smartphone race again – by announcing the launch of their new Google smartphones. In this launch, Google has decided to create its own brand, instead of continuing with Nexus.   

Google smartphones: a scary competitor

Though the official names of these Google smartphones are yet to be known, there has already been some leaks about their specs. The first Google smartphone will have a 5-inch display and 32 GB internal storage. The second phone sports a 5.5-inch display and 128 GB internal memory. With specs similarity, people are suspecting that there will be no completely new phone. We all hope this won’t turn out to be just a marketing strategy as they say it will be.

With specs similarity, people are suspecting that there will be no completely new phone. Google just wants to make people more curious about the upcoming Google smartphones: Sailfish and Marlin. They even say that they spotted 2 new HTC-manufactured at US FCC. Since these rumors are too different, we cannot be sure which one is real. Both of them will run Android 7.0 Nougat. This OS generation is the latest and strongest Android OS at present. Only with this feature, we all understand that these will be high-end model phones.

There are a few reasons for this giant to choose Android as the main OS for their Google smartphones. First, they see how Indian market is fond of Android OS. 97 percents of this growing market uses this OS. The benefit is too big to skip. Second, Google targets everybody. If they adopt something like IOS, it’s not only cost lots of money but also hard to use.

Google smartphones: Warning for other phone brands

We can see clearly Google ambition in taking over the first place in smart devices field. We all know what they can do. If the new Google smartphones successfully launch, brands like iPhone or Samsung will have to share a huge part of the market. Do their competition make you so excited to see what next? If you do, you can subscribe to our page for further information.

Even though many people claim that Samsung Galaxy Note 7 is one of the best phones at the moment. Lots of users find this Samsung Note does not reach their expectations. Here are 4 reasons why.

1. Samsung Galaxy Note 7: appearance design problems

Samsung decides that they want to go ” Edge only” on Samsung Galaxy Note 7. This also means that they will eliminate the flat screen version of Note 7. This limits the consumers choice on which model they find more suitable. Like all the other edge looks, the phone display can attract lots of reflection. If you are in strong sunlight, there is no way you can see what is on the screen.

Besides, the edge design is said to be really hard to hold. It makes people feel like they can drop the phone anytime. Also, the phone curves cause some presentation problems when phone owners use some apps.  When people spend lots of their money on such an expensive phone like Note 7, they expect more than these.

2. Samsung Galaxy Note 7 dual camera: a broken dream

We were so excited to hear that “the beast” would sport dual camera lens. We all know dual camera always captures better. Unfortunately, that is only a rumor. There is no dual camera lens housing in this device. Now we have to wait for iPhone 7 to be released at the end of this year. Then we will know how good dual camera really is in reality. Luckily, Note 7 camera optics and software are much better than the previous phones from Samsung.

3. Samsung Galaxy Note 7: not the best battery capacity

Note 7 battery is only 3500mAh. It’s an improvement since Note 5 battery is 300mAh. Unfortunately, this improvement is not enough to please their buyers.  If you compare this one to Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge, you will see that the Note 7 capacity is a bit less.

4. Samsung Galaxy Note 7: unfair treatment

Samsung fans all over the world are quite frustrated because of Samsung marketing strategy. Samsung will release a different Samsung Galaxy Note 7 in China market. It’s also informed that the China version of this phone will have remarkable upgrades. The giant explains that they have to do this due to special marketing demand in China.

4 reasons why Samsung Galaxy Note 7 is a disappointment

We can not deny that Samsung Galaxy Note 7 is a phone full of good specs. However, with all these flaws, it is so disappointing. It also makes us wonder: Do I want to spend my money on this phone? What are your opinions about Note 7 problems? Please comment to let us know!

And this handset won’t be as affordable as the other Xiaomi devices are. It will be the high-end smartphone of the company. Xiaomi Mi Note 2 price is expected to be about $400 to $500.

Lenovo Vibe P2 is one of the most awaited phones of the company. Will it compete with Zenfone 3 from the same segment? Lenovo Vibe P2 VS Asus Zenfone 3: let’s have a look!

Lenovo Vibe P2 VS Asus Zenfone 3: 4GB RAM beasts 

First, let’s come to the most important part of the phone- the heart. Both Zenfone 3 and Lenovo Vibe P2 are the strong devices with an octa-core processor. Not only that, they also pack a hefty 4GB of RAM. With this huge RAM, these two phone can easily handle any app or any game you throw at them. However, Lenovo new phone will give you a better performance with SND 652 chipset. While Zenfone 3 has a SND 625 SoC.

Let’s move to the camera and battery battles. The primary cameras on these two handsets have the same resolution of 16MP. Besides the resolution of the main camera, there is still no more information about Vibe P2 camera. So, for this round, they’re tied. Although being the successor of Vibe P1, Lenovo P2 battery is not really impressive. However, with 3500mAh, it’s big enough to defeat the one from Asus. Asus phone is backed up with a 3000mAh cell. So, again, Vibe P2 wins this round.
