Samsung building a foldable phone, LG on transparent screens
3/24/2015 5:48:30 AM
Samsung is releasing the occasional flip smartphone, but those are niche products with limited availability and appeal. A Samsung official revealed that the company has a plant to leverage its bendable display technology to create foldable phones. The official did not provide any more info though if a foldable, flip phone like form factor can be used to provide a large screen in a compact body. While that may sound futuristic, we may see it as early as next year. The new flexible screen tech has four phases: curved, bent, foldable and rollable. The first two are already a reality, the third one is coming soon while the last one holds promise of displays that are stored like roller blinds. LG Display has its flexible screens too, though its focus is elsewhere - the company is experimenting with transparent displays. Those will enable augmented reality displays without the need for Google Glass style wearables. LG already has a promotional prototype ready, however, "it will take some time" until the factories are ready for mass production. The tech is already is some products like luxury cars (for heads-up displays) and refrigerators (to let you see what's inside while showing ads too). Anyway, there's one transparent display phone that we can think of, the Sony Ericsson Xperia Pureness. Of course, that one had a tiny, low-res, monochrome display and never drew much attention from consumers. LG is much further ahead than that - the image above is an 18" LG display that's both transparent and bendable. Source |...

3/24/2015 4:20:03 AM
The latest flagship, courtesy of Gionee was unveiled only a few weeks ago at MWC 2015. The Chinese company has really been focusing on its premium Elife series with great phones, such as the Elife S5.5 and Elife S5.1, which even held the title of "world's thinnest smartphone" for a short while. Now Gionee plan to officially launch the latest addition to this lineup - the Elife S7 in India. The event will on April 4 and invitations have already been sent out. The Elife S7, which breaks away from Gionee's thickness-oriented naming convention, is powered by an octa-core Mediatek MT6752 SoC, clocked at 1.7 GHz, has 2GB of RAM and 16GB of onboard storage.

Alleged HTC One M9 Plus mockup reveals its design
3/24/2015 1:59:34 AM
A mockup render of the unannounced HTC One M9 Plus made the rounds on Twitter, courtesy of @OnLeaks. The image compares the M9 Plus to the regular HTC One M9 and is said to be based on a prototype of the device. As you can see in the render above, the biggest difference between HTC One M9 Plus and One M9 is the presence of a physical home button below the display. The solution splits the BoomSound speaker in two and could also utilize a fingerprint scanner. The circular camera of the handset should hardly catch anyone by surprise. It has already appeared in live photos. HTC One M9 Plus might debut with two different chipsets - a MediaTek MT6795 model could cater to the Chinese market, while a Snapdragon 810 version will be sold elsewhere. The rest of the device's rumored specs include 5.2" QHD display, fingerprint scanner, 3GB of RAM, and 32GB of expandable memory. Source...
