  • Windows Phone 7 Mango Blows All Other Phones Out Of The Water In HTML5 Browser Tests

    Ever since Microsoft announced Mango for their Windows Phone 7 platform they have been focusing on the OS’s exceptional HTML5 performance leaving behind the likes of Android, iOS and BlackBerry OS.

    So Microsoft gave us another demo at the Worldwide Partners Conference (WPC) earlier this week where an HTC Mango handset went against the Samsung Droid Charge, BlackBerry Torch and an iPhone 4 with the latest iOS 5 BETA 3. The demo on display was called ‘Fish’ where 3D fishes were being rendered onto an ocean background.

    As you could see in the video the Charge managed to pull 20fps, the Torch did 9fps, iPhone 4 managed to do around 15fps while the HTC managed a blazing fast 50fps! Now that’s what you call owning the crowd.

  • Samsung Galaxy S II AT&T Variant’s Pictures Leaked, Features A Slide Out QWERTY Keyboard

    BGR has received exclusive photos of the AT&T branded Samsung Galaxy S II which is yet to be released in the USA. The most distinctive part of the variant is that it features a slide out QWERTY keyboard like the Sprint variant of the previous Galaxy S: The Epic 4g.

    BGR says this Galaxy S II variant manages to maintain it’s slim profile even with a QWERTY slider, could that make it the slimmer keyboard phone ever?

    As you can see from the image above it’s indeed the rumored SGH-I927 which was previously thought to be the Windows Phone 7 powered Galaxy S II.

    The BGR informant even managed to run some benchmarks which makes one thing clear: it’s bloody fast!

    The camera is still 8MP with what it looks like a single LED flash. We’re still not sure that if the innards like the processor have been changed but we can say for sure is that the phone is indeed coming to the United States.

  • Google Buys Motorola Mobility For A Whooping $12.5 Billion, Android WIll Still Remain Open Source

    Big news coming in from Mountain View, California folks. The search giant Google has just announced that it will be acquiring Motorola Mobility for a massive $12.5, at $40 per share which is 63% more than Motorola’s closing share price in the stock market last Friday.

    The whole acquisition is gonna take place by the end of this year or in the starting months of 2012. Motorola being on the top three Android OEM partners this could have proved very bad news for the other partners but Google has ensured us all that Android will still stay as an open platform and they will run Motorola as a separate business.

    Google claims the that the main motivation behind this acquisition is to get a hold of Motorola’s massive collection of patent which goes back more than 80 years. Lary Page, CEO of Google had the following to say:

    acquisition of Motorola will increase competition by strengthening Google’s patent portfolio, which will enable [Google] to better protect Android from anti-competitive threats from Microsoft, Apple and other companies.

    So what will this deal lead to? A Motorola Nexus device? The end of NinjaBlue/Blue/MotoBlur or will Motorola do the same as it has been doing for all these years? Only time will tell. Let us know in the comments what you think. Press Release is below:

    Combination will Supercharge Android, Enhance Competition, and Offer Wonderful User Experiences

    MOUNTAIN VIEW, CA and LIBERTYVILLE, IL – AUGUST 15, 2011 – Google Inc. (NASDAQ: GOOG) and Motorola Mobility Holdings, Inc. (NYSE: MMI) today announced that they have entered into a definitive agreement under which Google will acquire Motorola Mobility for $40.00 per share in cash, or a total of about $12.5 billion, a premium of 63% to the closing price of Motorola Mobility shares on Friday, August 12, 2011. The transaction was unanimously approved by the boards of directors of both companies.

    The acquisition of Motorola Mobility, a dedicated Android partner, will enable Google to supercharge the Android ecosystem and will enhance competition in mobile computing.

Together, we will create amazing user experiences that supercharge the entire Android ecosystem for the benefit of consumers, partners and developers. I look forward to welcoming Motorolans to our family of Googlers.”

    Sanjay Jha, CEO of Motorola Mobility, said, “This transaction offers significant value for Motorola Mobility’s stockholders and provides compelling new opportunities for our employees, customers, and partners around the world. We have shared a productive partnership with Google to advance the Android platform, and now through this combination we will be able to do even more to innovate and deliver outstanding mobility solutions across our mobile devices and home businesses.”

    Andy Rubin, Senior Vice President of Mobile at Google, said, “We expect that this combination will enable us to break new ground for the Android ecosystem. However, our vision for Android is unchanged and Google remains firmly committed to Android as an open platform and a vibrant open source community. We will continue to work with all of our valued Android partners to develop and distribute innovative Android-powered devices.”

    The transaction is subject to customary closing conditions, including the receipt of regulatory approvals in the US, the European Union and other jurisdictions, and the approval of Motorola Mobility’s stockholders. The transaction is expected to close by the end of 2011 or early 2012.

  • HTC Vigor Set To Be The World’s First HD Screen SuperPhone?

    Looks like HTC is ready to blow away the competition and release the world’s first SuperPhone sporting a HD screen. The HTC Vigor is set to release ‘soon’ and will be packing some serious hardware.

    The HTC Vigor features a 4.3-inch HD display (probably Super LCD), an 8MP back camera which most probably records 1080p videos, a front camera and a 1.5 GHz dual core processor. The SuperPhone will be running Android 2.3.4 Gingerbread with HTC’s Sense 3.5 UI on top (an upgrade from 3.0). The phone will also implement Dr. Dre’s Beats technology offering superior audio playback.

    If this phone is indeed real then we can expect an official announcement soon.
