Vivaz

There’s really a lot of smartphones out there in the market, and now here’s just another one. And if you’re interested, let’s see what’s different and new about this one!

 Sony Ericssson has just unveiled a new smartphone with full touch screen features – the Sony Ericsson Vivaz. The Sony Ericsson Vivaz is a full featured smartphone with great features such as a high resolution camera that lets you capture video in HD quality. It has a dedicated video key that lets you shoot video quickly with continous auto focus. This phone also lets you review video content in standby panel or online via Wi-Fi on its 3.2 inch touch enabled widescreen display. You can also upload your videos to YouTube and Picasa directly over Wi-Fi. And since uploading takes time, you can let the uploading run in the background and use the phone for other purposes. The Sony Ericsson Vivaz is also an open platform handset so you can personalize it with entertainment content and other applications that you can find from PlayNow and Symbian Developer Community. And it also has a GPS like many other smartphones do.

Design-wise, the Sony Ericsson Vivaz boasts of a design that can be attributed to what Sony calls as human curvature. The design was made to mirror the shape of the human body while at the same deliver a precise and compeling phone interaction. The Sony Ericsson Vivaz will be available in Moon Silver, Cosmic Black, Galaxy Blue and Venus Ruby designs.

However, no words on pricing yet. A exclusive nice phone, or just another smartphone? To me, I got really tired of these smartphones, and this one is just not my idea of a pretty cellphone. So how do you think?

google phone

To be honest, I have to admit that I am quite a Google fan, that I use google chrome, Gtalk, Gmail and a bounch of other google products, and most of all, Google search! So I’ve really been looking forward to this for a long time since the rumour goes around, and it is exciting to see this it finally goes official. Well, shall we check…

 

Google has finally launched the first real Google Phone so to speak – Nexus One. We can now lay all rumors, photo leaks, unofficial information as Google formally unveils what could possible pose as a real threat to the iPhone. The Nexus One runs on Android 2.0, features a 5MP autofocus camera, AGPS, and all the standard features that you normally find with the usual smartphones in its class.

The Smartphone is actually wisely designed, Nexus One is what you could probably expect from another HTC manufactured smartphone and it definitely looks a lot like the iPhone. It has a touchscreen display occupying the full front of the phone without any physical keyboard. It is thin at only 11.5 mm thick, and light at 130 grams. While the iPhone only have one functional touch button that does everything, the Nexus One has four of them – back, menu, home, search. In addition, it also has a navigation trackball, power and volume controls. One of the best feature of the Nexus One is of course its capacitive touchscreen measuring 3.7-inch and with 480×800 resolution. It’s definitely way better than the iPhone’s 480×320 display. The Nexus One’s standby time is at 290 hours on 2G and 250 hours on 3G, while talktime is up to 10 hours on 2 G and 7 hours on 3G.

 

The Nexus One is available now at Http://google.phone at various pricing schemes. The phone is really nice and tempting to a google fan like me, definitely worth buying!
