The 10 inch tablet market is pretty vast now, and we already have seen some really potent entires in the 10” market. But now the new and the hottest segment of the tablet market is the 7 to 9 inch tablet market, and already there have been some significant entries in the market. The latest entrant in this segment is Toshiba, and although the maker made a late entry in the industry, but it certainly has done its homework and the latest tablets form the company reflects it very well. The latest offering from Toshiba is a 7 in Toshiba Thrive tablet, which is a smaller version of the 10 in Thrive that was launched earlier. Just as its bigger sibling, the 7 inch LG Thrive has been developed around now-omnipresent Tegra 2 platform, rounding the specifications for the 7” Thrive are a 7 inch WXGA display screen having native resolution of 1280 x 800 pixels, five  [...]

Once again we’ve got the leaked images of Motorola Xoom 2, but this time it has been seen with its little brother. Below are the leaked images of both Motorola Xoom 8 inch and 10 inch. But its not the leaked images that we’ve got this time around for the device, we also have heard that both these devices will also be having 4G LTE, but again that’s something that was expected from the device. As a matter of fact we probably will also see the Wi-Fi models for the handset. Seeing the leaked images we think that the new designs for the device are rather neat; what do you think of it? We first saw the smaller Xoom a couple of weeks back, but at that time it was said to be a 7 inch tablet, but now we’ve heard that it will have a 8.2 inch IPS display rather than the normal 7 inch  form factor. Also, if the reports we got earlier regarding the tablets are to be believed than both these new tablets will be having a sleek design and will be available in round 9.3 mm thick, basically  [...]

It seems that LG has developed a special affection for the lovely region of South Korea. If not that, then they just want to give all their next-generations handsets to South Korea first, because just a couple of days ago we saw the first real-life photos of LG Optimus LTE, and now here we are hearing about LG’s another next-level phone the LG Optimus EX. Now, if the reports claiming the LG Optimus EX are to be believed, let us tell you that the LG Optimus EX is another dual-core handset from LG, and has a pretty bleak and developed design having a speaker grill on the base and top of a flat display screen. Not much is known about the handset as of now, but we do hear that the handset will be called LG-SU880. In addition, the handset is said to be launched initially only on Korean network SK Telecom only and it’ll be running on Android 2.3.x Gingerbread. This Smartphone  [...]

The latest news from Samsung is that the company is thinking about turning their mobile program Bada into an open-source development next year, reported the The Wall Street Journal, citing anonymous sources. Samsung also intended to enlarge Bada into a podium which easily can be used in gadgets apart from Smartphones, like smart TVs and all. Although, we haven’t got any confirmation on the entire issue, but it has come instantly after Google bought Motorola Mobility. Now, what Google’s buying Motorola Mobility has done here is that it has kept the Android Smartphone maker into an uncomfortable position, because it signifies that Google will straightly be contending against them on their very own platform. Cher Wang, CEO of HTC, recently told that the company is planning of buying a mobile Operating podium. Samsung and HTC are two of the largest Android Smartphone manufacturers, and the latest acquisition of Google has made them  [...]

Finally AT&T has forayed into the world of high-speed mobile communications with the launh of their “4G LTE” network. And yes you read it right its “4G LTE” network, not only "4G". The network initially will be launched in five cities: San Antonio, Dallas-Fort Worth, Atlanta, Chicago and Houston. Now, while all that sounds pretty tempting, we say that mobile users wont be using a lot of this new service from AT&T and that is because there aren’t many AT&T handsets available in the market. But if you want, you either will get the USBConnect Momentum 4G modem of AT&T, USBConnect Adrenaline or Elevate 4G mobile hotspot so as to get the Wi-Fi friendly gadgets or desktop PCs and laptop connected to 4G LTE. If not all these then you could use the freshly proclaimed HTC Jetstream 10.1-inch tablet, which is said to support both 4G LTE network of AT&T and "4G" network, or HSPA+. That is a big difference which we need to highlight  [...]
