The Samsung Galaxy S5 Prime arrive in June

And a few weeks ago, the Korean company Samsung introduced its flagship device: the Samsung Galaxy S5. As with every release, the firm tends to further develop different models to increase the catalog of devices and adapt to the different audiences that want to get a new Smartphone.

One of the new teams that could give the company said would be the Samsung Galaxy Prime S5, a phone that you have already seen in India, but could reach the international market in the coming months. In fact, according to a report published recently in Korea, the Samsung Galaxy S5 Prime will make its triumphant appearance in the markets from this June. By far not been determined whether that will be the time of presentation of the phone or on the contrary, and will go on sale so that users can begin to test it. But what are the characteristics of this new model will be Smartphone?

Rumors tell us that the new Samsung Galaxy Prime will be the first phone from Samsung will come equipped with a metal casing instead of plastic classical architecture. Not the first time we read information on this computer. Several previous to this information on availability rumors indicate that Samsung Galaxy S5 Prime could have a wide 5.2-inch qHD display and a resolution of 2560 x 1400 pixels. This combination of factors would result in a density of 564 dots per inch (dpi) with which Samsung would try to compete against LG G3 , which will become his closest rival in different markets. But there’s more. So far we know that the model intended for the Korean market lead integrated processor Exynos 5430 with eight-core architecture. It would be a piece with a quad processor (Cortex A-15 2.1 GHz) and another, also of four, (Cortex A-7 1.5GHz) that combine functions with a graphics card (GPU) ARM Mali 600 MHz

The LG G3 which much has been said take an integrated 5.5-inch QHD screen , with a density of 534 dots per inch (dpi) and a processor Qualcomm Snapdragon 801 quad-core Krait 400.

No conclusive data on the camera and intelligent functions essential part of any self-respecting Smartphone. It is thought, however, that some of the tools present in the Samsung Galaxy S5 also come built into this terminal. For now, the only thing that has made the firm is flatly deny the existence of this phone, but the fact is that the team has appeared on the site AnTuTu, dedicated to the performance analysis of mobile with model number SM-906S. In the same review, the terminal appeared equipped with a qHD display, data that coincide with the provisional list of specifications that have been leaked by now.

Sony Xperia Z2 Tablet Review

This time it’s the Samsung Galaxy Grand 2, a mobile phone aimed at the midrange, but, as we shall see throughout the analysis, has the air of top end.

We made presentations, and we with our particular analysis of Samsung Galaxy Grand 2!

First Impressions

As a good member of the huge family Samsung Galaxy, this Smartphone follows the general lines in appearance, so at first glance it can easily be confused with other devices, and we can even say that this is a cross between the Samsung Galaxy S5 and Samsung Galaxy Note 3.

Of course, the Samsung Galaxy Grand 2 is a large terminal, but has not too excessive measures. Addition, touching the back, with a plastic worked the same way in that phablet, gets offer a comfortable feel, along with a look much more premium than the simple plastic.

Design

At the top we see a front speaker, and next to it, different light and proximity sensors as well as the secondary camera. Under all this will show the name of the company, and if we look and see at the bottom to keep the custom, the physical button so characteristic of the brand.

Behind, in addition to this imitation leather throughout the cover -which of course can be removed, we have the 8 mega pixel camera with the LED flash and the speaker, not to mention the Samsung recorded. If we focus on the songs, next we will see the volume control, and another button power. On the top edge is the connector jack 3.5 mm, and the lower the Micro-USB.

The Samsung Galaxy Grand 2 maintains a design well liken the high end of the company, something that helps a lot with all that metallic look finish around it.

Screen

Despite what we might expect, this Samsung Galaxy Grand 2 does not have the technology Super Amoled the Korean company that takes pride in most of their equipment, at least midrange up. Anyway, this is a TFT panel that has left a good impression, with perhaps more saturated, vivid colors and a proper HD resolution that gives about 280 ppi its 5.2 inches.

Good feelings, but we can say that the point at which further weakens the display is outdoors, and it’s true that with very direct light it costs a bit more than usual to see it without problems.

Battery

Generous 2600 mAh, autonomy seems above average, which is that, although it seems that manufacturers are slowly taking steps in the matter, yet few would choose such caliber capabilities and less on the range in which we find ourselves.

Thus, the Samsung Galaxy Grand 2 should be able to hold the whole day without problems and without having to cut off too when using it. In this sense the HD resolution also plays a positive role, and is Full HD panels were subtracted enough battery life.

Camera

One of the sections in which companies often cut before is in the photo, and this time would be less. So, the phone will give us an acceptable quality, but of course not surprising. Regarding software, we will have different options available as Beauty face or HDR, but here they have forgotten to implement Dual camera, an interesting feature that allows us to launch photos with both cameras at the same time, which is present for example in the Samsung Galaxy S4. There would have been more to compensate in this field. Picture taken with the Samsung Galaxy Grand 2Built Photography taken with the Samsung Galaxy Grand 2

Performance

With a Qualcomm Snapdragon 400 consists of a main processor 4-core Cortex-A7, the overall team performance is acceptable. Moreover, Adreno 305 GPU performs well, and we even worth to play major titles with graphic loads, and 1.5 GB on that help maintain a good balance and flow system rests.

The apps that we can use more or less daily way browsers internet, feeds of news or Google Mpas, the performance achieved is more than enough, no hint of lag or excessive load times.

Operating System

Android 4.3 Jelly Bean is version Samsung Touch Wiz moving charge, the personalization layer quintessential South Korean company. This Smartphone has many of the capabilities of software of his brothers, such as dual screen multitasking, something to be enjoyed thanks to the wide screen, but obviously it is still better in inches.

Regarding your smart Samsung screen, but has recovered Smart stay, which is turned off when we fail to meet it, and of course, has plenty of apps in the house as S Translator, S Voice, Group Play and much more. This time is also included FM Radio, which no doubt many users will be considering.

The new flagship of Samsung has the IP67 certification to prevent sweat, water, sand or dust can damage the proper functioning of the internal circuitry of the computer.

Until now, the only phone Samsung who enjoyed this protection was the Samsung Galaxy S4 Active, rightful heir to the Samsung Galaxy S4 original, but equipped for users who know they use their Smartphone in extreme conditions.

The information comes from the website of Samsung in New Zealand reports that devices like the Samsung Galaxy S5, S5 Samsung Galaxy Mini and Samsung Galaxy S4 Active offer the same level of water resistance.

It is, as you mentioned, certification IP67 allowing these devices to dive to a meter deep for 30 long minutes. No more. In fact, in that same section, dedicated to answer questions about the security of the devices, it is reported that any model that has been submerged for more than 30 minutes in the water to see a void warranty and may not be replaced in any case, on the other unit. It should be noted, moreover, that this is not the only specification that has been leaked on the Samsung Galaxy Mini S5 to come.

Review of Xiaomi Mi3 with Google Nexus 5

We return to the fray with one of the tightest and compare most anticipated in recent memory. We face two high-end devices with more typical mid-range prices such as the Xiaomi Mi3, which recently analyzed and the ubiquitous Google Nexus 5.

Both terminals are located at the fork of the 400 euros price and share many specifications as the SoC, Snapdragon 800, the screen size and the amount of RAM. But also vary greatly as the size of the battery, the operating system or the multimedia section.

Definitely better than what you see in the comparative video and bring forth your own conclusions. Both ways we are in front of two excellent and we choose the terminals that are not erred in your cart. I recommend you also see the Xiaomi Mi3 faced by Jaume where Carlos and discuss the main strengths and weaknesses of the Chinese terminal.

Tips:

• Review on Google Glass: The glasses of the future


• Review: Tablet Monster M7

Positives for the Xiaomi Mi3

• Camera. Although Google Nexus Camera 5 much improved compared to its predecessor, is behind the camera as the other terminals Xiaomi Mi3. In this case the Chinese bat in terminal resolution power of the flash, in this case twice, and interpretation of the colors to terminal Google.

• Battery. We discussed when we analyze the Xiaomi Mi3 the battery was one of its main strengths, because with 3050 mAh allows us to get to-day with very heavy use.

• Quality audio. One of the main problems of terminal Nexus has always been the audio where Xiomi Mi3 again beat the Google Nexus 5 with a higher quality audio with a higher volume.

Positives for the Google Nexus 5

• Size and ergonomics. Unfortunately the Xiaomi Mi3 is a very large and a very accomplished ergonomics not terminal. With the same size screen Google Nexus 5 is a smaller more ergonomic especially terminal, and lighter.

• 4G connectivity (LTE Advanced). The Google Nexus 5 to like most of today’s high-end range features 4G LTE connectivity, while the Xiaomi Mi3 lacks this type of connectivity despite having a SoC support.

• Policy updates and direct support from Google. The Nexus reference terminals are terminals in the Android world and as such provide the Google’s latest operating system immediately, which is not at all common in the other terminal manufacturers. Furthermore, we can enjoy pure Android, while other brands usually choose to incorporate layers of customization.

Review on Google Glass: The glasses of the future

They’re here! The day has come! At last we have the Google Glass, with whom we have already made a first unboxing and I can tell what they seem and analyze every detail of the gadget most anticipated technology-yes, I say this without fear of being wrong -. This is a great device, but we are still a long development phase, since its operation and components are very different to those seen previously, and prove a lot before getting a final device.

Screen

The screen, which is made of a glass prism, is interesting about the quality and particularity, the size and distance, fooling a lot; it seems that the image we see is further away than it actually is. Data from Google say it’s like watching a 25-inch screen 2.5 meters away. Usually it looks pretty good, and we can not have complaints in this regard, being a development device.

The only but we can find this screen is the problem of seeing the prism in bright light as the direct impact of the proposal on it impairs vision information, and forces us to look for shaded areas to appreciate content.

Design

A very complicated section to talk about. The current design is only a prototype, so it’s probably what most change, as several large companies in the world of designer eyewear have gotten into this big project finder big G. The weight is quite accomplished, achieved be fairly light, and despite being unbalanced because all the weight is on one side, are very comfortable to use .

In my personal opinion, the truth is that the design is quite simple and looks work well, the end is the important case of a device like this, and that it is still a test model for developers. The materials, seeking lightness, metal and plastic pin in the “envelope” of the hardware.

Camera

It has a 5 mega pixel camera that also allows recording video in HD. As is usual in most of mobile technology devices, has a good performance in good light conditions, but suffers a bit when we catch in front of adverse lighting conditions. Not to forget the size of the device and that it is a prototype for understanding the limitations mount hardware from a camera on it. It is probably one of the points that go Google it gradually improved in subsequent versions when they are available for purchase by the general public.

Autonomy

Autonomy

It may be the weak point of these Google Glass undoubtedly much autonomy hampers the overall performance of this new gadget, life is pretty poor. The alleged product specifications tell us that may have a 500 mAh battery. The paragraph is good, like when you use it, the battery takes very little time to load. It seems clear that the point is that Google needs to evolve more of your new gadget.

Operation

Here there is plenty to do for now, but those that are have very good looking and we are seeing more developers are encouraged. No doubt the king is the command “Get directions to …” the most comfortable GPS, we could try to date without having to look away from the road, a new way to get to our destinations. Another important function of the Google Glass, how could it be otherwise in the case of Google, the search is content with the familiar “Ok Glass”, interact directly with voice recognition . This type of relationship with the glasses is the most comfortable and straightforward, but there are more.

On the other hand we can also use the Google Glass with his pad control on the right leg. On the same tab, we have another button at the top serving as camera button, whether to do photo or video. At the end the operation of much of these Google Glass is made from our Smartphone, which causes the application need for Glass known as synchronization. One of the best options that allow the connection of this device with the Smartphone is the ability to make a screen cast and see the contents of the Google Glass on the screen of your phone.

Sound

Here as you know we have a new release, these Google Glass is heard on bone induction, transmitting the sound to the ear bones. The quality of it is not great, but it serves a basic use-do not think the Google Glass to be the gadget perfect for watching a movie. Add to Google already realized this and new versions offer a small headsets improve this listening experience.

Samsung Galaxy Grand 2: Review of a major new midrange

Review of the LG G Flex and LG G2

Today we have two range of LG , the LG G2 and with the innovative Flex LG G. We are facing very similar terminals cough specifications, but very different in approach. While the G2 is a classic high-end, outstanding especially in the multimedia section, the Flex G shares many components with this, but introduces a factor of innovation that lacks the LG G2.

For if we were to define the LG G Flex with one word, it would be innovation. We are talking about one of the first devices with curved screen and flexible poled and the first to incorporate a rear self-regenerating repairing scratches. The fact that the terminal is equipped with flexibility also makes it very interesting.

However, this innovation of LG G Flex has made has some flaws when compared to the LG G2, a very balanced terminal. For example, although both share the same photo sensor, G Flex lacks the stabilizing element if the G2 incorporates and significantly improves the quality of photographs.

The curve G screen Flex also has some problems of underdeveloped what is so far the poled technology. For example the panel has a resolution of only 720 x 1280 pixels resolution which gives a very low density of pixels on a screen 6 inches. This panel also suffers from some problems in the interpretation of the colors.

Positive for the LG G2 points compared to the G Flex

• Display quality. As mentioned, the True IPS display with full HD resolution of the LG G2 not only gives us more screen resolution G Flex, but also a higher image quality and more accurate interpretation of the colors. Should not forget that we are in front one of the best screens on the market of Smartphones.

• Camera. Although both terminals have the same software and the same camera sensor, incorporating optical stabilizer in G2 decanted balance of his side.

• Price. The LG G2 and takes a few months on the market, which has allowed the price to drop to about 400 euros, while it is difficult to find the G Flex for less than 650 euros.

Positive for the LG G Flex points compared to the G2

• The curved screen. Although we currently have some problems, curved screens have obvious advantages and if the users approval, may be the future of Smartphones.

• Self-healing back. Although it may seem a technology of the future, self-regeneration of materials takes time among us, but it was not until the arrival to the market for LG G Flex have been built when the world of Smartphones. Definitely a great incentive to purchase this terminal.

• Battery. The monstrous 3500 mAh battery that incorporates LG G Flex gives it an autonomy unparalleled in today’s market of Smartphones despite the large screen size and high-end software that incorporates.

Review: HTC One Max Big Man of the Family

As the saying goes, better late than never, and finally, after taking a few months on the market, and after seeing him in action in the past MWC 2014, the time to discover all the internals of the HTC One Max has come, that device only impresses with its name.

No more waiting and I leave you with our analysis.

First Impressions

Just see the HTC One Max, automatically come to mind two words: great and quality. Large view, it is one of the phablets biggest we can find, surpassed by the Sony Xperia Z Ultra and a few others. But it is not only great for your generous 5.9 inches, but the overall size of the device, and is that with these two front speakers are set unfit for all budgets.

Moreover, we emphasize quality, is that as big brother HTC One, shares the same design and the same metallic material for chassis, which certainly denotes a careful job in this aspect. Furthermore, with the above speakers and large panel, impresses us if we are accustomed to more “normal” things.

Design

Obviously, the design of the HTC Max One inevitably reminiscent of the penultimate ship company logo, and can say that it is the same phone, but bigger. So, back to enjoying those finishes premium that gives the aluminum, but also we can remove the back cover, needed to introduce the micro-SIM card and microSD.

If we look carefully at the front highlight these two stereo speakers protruding from both ends of the screen, and see the area above the sensor by the front camera. In the lower, right between the speaker and the screen is black band containing the capacitive buttons back and home, plus the HTC logo in the center.

On one side, volume buttons and release, on the top edge, the jack of 3.5 mm and infrared emitter and if we turn it completely, see the camera lens, and just below, the fingerprint reader fingerprints. Connection also has bases loaded.

Screen

Naturally, the first thing that stands out on the screen of HTC Max One is its imposing size, reaching no more and no less than 5.9 inches. However, not only so we can say that the panel is the best we can find in the market, is that the Super LCD3 technology does its job perfectly, offering a quality only up to the top.

Full HD resolution does the rest, so this is a great panel that enjoys 100% when viewing multimedia video, play, browse, or do anything else. It enjoys wide viewing angles and behaves very well when exposed to direct light.

Battery

This time HTC has spared when loaded with a fair amount of mAh battery. There is a total 3300 mAh, which results in a great deal of autonomy, when we talk about phablets, it becomes even more important section if possible.

So, we have no problem to hold the whole day with normal use, and surely we still on for more intense use or to keep it out of the charger a few more hours.

Camera

Detail from the camera and the fingerprint of the HTC Max One

How could it be otherwise, the phablet also inherits technology Ultra Pixel house, one that has received so many negative reviews as positive. Thus the whole camera, 4 megapixels, delivers pretty good results in low light conditions undoubtedly aspect that stands out, and neither does anything bad to daylight.

Yes, that little resolution brings the problem of exaggerated “pixelation”, is that provided we do zoom before taking the photo, and then to see it on screen, we realize why those comments against. Furthermore, it has been cut into something so positive as the optical stabilizer, one of the most interesting elements of the HTC Camera One, and that this time is not present.

Meanwhile, the front camera has 2.1 mega pixels and can record at 1080p, enough to make video calls with very good quality.

Performance

As almost everyone knows by now, the combination Qualcomm Snapdragon 600 supported on 2 GB of RAM provides very good performance. With quad-core Krait GPU Adreno 300 and 320, the HTC Max One will have a optimum performance in any situation. Either when surf internet, use apps or using heavy media, the team operates without any problems, with fast loading times.

But not everything was going to be good, so we highlight some little point lag in certain games, something not important and only annoying for the most demanding. Probably more lack of optimization by developers a problem with the smartphone, but it’s there.

Operating System

Definitely one of the key points for a device to perform just as well as it does this HTC One Max, is the optimization of the software from it. And here we must applaud and HTC Sense customization layer that is improving each year, and has reached a point of maturity very high. So, running on Android 4.3 Jelly Bean, fluidity we see in the interface is exquisite. It is certainly one of the best experiences after native Android.

Of course, we have access to all the possibilities offered by HTC Sense 5.5 as the screen Blink Feed HTC, HTC Sense TV, or HTC Zoe great tool that allows you to create beautiful videos in seconds.

A Complete Review on Xiaomi

From the Far East comes the most current technology, especially from China, but for the moment the perception of their phones is not as good as those of its neighbors South Korea and Taiwan. This has not stopped manufacturers in this country have been increasing in sales volume in a very important way, with the main exponents of this success to Huawei, ZTE and Lenovo, and gaining market share and growing presence among the best buyers.

A few months ago, an announcement surprised all of us given the person with whom he was related. Specifically, we refer to Hugo Barra, which until now had been vice president of management Android products and a heavyweight in Google, and announcing a change for joining Xiaomi. From here the news about the brand have been more normal and typical of a phone manufacturer, and among its new catalog for 2014 we have the Xiaomi Red Rice.

First Impressions

With the Motorola Moto G monopolizing the range of input current to Android , need to find opponents for that and the proposed terminal Xiaomi is really interesting. While it does not stand out precisely because a carefully designed, not will miss the slightest bit of power, and it has a Mediatek processor quad core 1.5 GHz accompanied by 1GB RAM. Where did they fail terminal is more on the subject of storage as it only will have a space of 4 GB (the only 2 of them for the user), but then we can expand via microSD cards. Remember also that Xiaomi does not use the native version of Android, but it has MIUI, an alternative to analyze a few days ago and is giving such good results.

Analysis

As you have found, the quad-core processor, coupled with GB of RAM make the operation of this Xiaomi Red Rice is very fluid, without giving any problem, which will be able to comfortably run the vast majority of the work that you propose . Unfortunately, in the section on storage we can not say the same, as the application space is not even 1 GB.

As mentioned in the video, the 2,000 mAh batteries seem a sufficient number to be able to cater for a full day on the phone, but can say that its 4.7 inch screen will be quite hungry and will need to manage energy.

Another section that I would highlight is the design, since it is not exactly a phone with a finish too care, although met. On the other hand, in the section of software itself we’ll find significant differences, because like all new Xiaomi, the Red Rice has MIUI customization layer.

Conclusion

As I said, this is a worthy opponent for the Motorola Moto G and can now be found at a price below 200 euros. Highlight of the terminal is that it is very balanced in all sections, so it will offer its users experience a more than correct.

Sony Xperia T Review – In Depth Report

Design

The Sony has always made beautiful designs for its products. The Xperia T has similar structure, but somewhere it makes an unimpressive in its aesthetic perspective.
