Windows Phone 7 Powered LG E900 And Android Powered LG E720 Smart Phones Recieve FCC Approval Says E900 is AT&T Friendly

lge900fccfiling

LG has been one of the world’s leading manufacturers for some time now but that doesn’t mean they are going to slow up anytime soon. In fact, thanks to a partnership with Microsoft, LG will be releasing a whole slew of handsets that runs the forthcoming Windows Phone 7 platform.

We’ve seen several prototype devices from LG that have been used to show off Microsoft’s new platform and today two such devices have hit the FCC: the LG E900 and LG E720.

The LG900 features a 1GHz Snapdragon processor, 802.11 b/g/n WiFI, Bluetooth and GSM 850/1900 band leading us to believe the device will eventually make its way to AT&T. The LG E720, on the other side, will run Google’s Android and feature EDGE connectivity which is just a sliver of its specs revealed by the FCC with more presumably coming at a later date.

T-Mobile G2 Will Reportedly Feature 800MHz Processor Instead Of 1GHz Processor As Previously Thought

tmobileg2

T-Mobile has its fair share of Android powered devices just like about every other wireless carrier out there. However, when it comes to having the first ever Android powered smart phone, T-Mobile takes the cake.

Released in 2008 was the T-Mobile G1 which featured a 3.2-inch capacitive touchscreen, slide-out QWERTY keyboard, 528Mhz processor, and 192 MB of SDRAM. Compared to modern day smart phones the T-Mobile G1 may not seem very special but the fact that it introduced to the market Android 1.0 is what really makes the device shine.

Looking to expand on the success of the first device, T-Mobile will go on the release the G2. This device will be T-Mobile’s first HSPA+ enabled device and will feature a large touchscreen and slide-out QWERTY keyboard much like its predecessor. However, while we originally thought that the device would feature a 1GHz Snapdragon processor, contrasting reports have surfaced today that say the smartphone will actually come complete with an 800Mhz processor.

While this isn’t much of a drop, it’s definitely a point to consider if planning on purchasing the T-Mobile G2.

LG E900 Windows Phone 7 Powered Touchscreen Smartphone Gets Pictured, Specs Revealed

lge900

Android and iOS have without a doubt been generating the most buzz within the mobile industry but that does not mean they are the only platforms out there. In fact, Research in Motion is chugging along quite nicely with their recently released BlackBerry 6 mobile operating system and Microsoft has a hefty project cooking to the tune of Windows Phone 7.

Many manufactures have already signed on to develop phones for the Windows Phone 7 platform, one of them being LG. We’ve seen several LG devices in the past but few of them have actually been officially talked about. However, one device from the company commonly known as the LG E900 had appeared on video – an extremely blurry video, but a video nonetheless.

Luckily, more pictures have leaked today of the E900 giving us a much closer and clearer look at the handset, as you can see above. Even better, we have some specs for the device which includes a 1GHz Snapdragon processor, 3.7-inch capacitive touchscreen display, a hardware camera button, 3.5mm headphone jack, a USB port light and proximity sensors.

Pretty standard fare but it’s nice to see that these hardware manufacturers are looking to give as much love to Windows Phone 7 as they do to Android.

Amazon Puts Samsung Epic 4G Up For $199 With 2-Year Contract

epic4gamazon

The Samsung Galaxy S is one of the hottest smart phones on the market today. This shouldn’t come as a surprise considering its 4.0-inch AMOLED display, 1GHz processor and Google’s Android mobile operating system are all highly sought after features.

Add this to the fact that the Galaxy S is available or will be available on just about every carrier in one form or another. AT&T has the Samsung Captivate, T-Mobile the Samsung Vibrant, Verizon soon to have the Samsung Fascinate and Sprint will be getting the Epic 4G. Out of all of these devices the Samsung Epic 4G features the most unique elements with a slide-out QWERTY keyboard and 4G connectivity.

Today, it was made known that Amazon.com has the Epic 4G up for $199 with a 2-year contract – a 50 dollar savings off the normal price. If you’re going to buy the phone anyways, you might as well save as much as you can for those added 4G fees, right?

HTC Desire Now Available From US Cellular For $199.95 With 2-Year Contract

htcdesire

There is certainly no drought of Android powered devices on the market with most all of them featuring a touchscreen in one form or another. Even better, just about every carrier in the United States carries at least one hand set powered by the platform.

Today, in fact, US Cellular has announced that the HTC Desire is now available for $199.95 with a 2-year contract – just as we had told you it would be earlier this month. The HTC Desire is certainly a capable Android powered device with a  3.7-inch Super LCD display, a 1GHz processor, 576MB of RAM, a 5 megapixel camera with LED flash, up to 32GB of storage via the microSDHC slot, Bluetooth, WiFi, an accelerometer, GPS and a 1400 mAh battery.

Of course, when compared to a device like the HTC EVO 4G for Sprint or Motorola Droid X for Verizon, one may be quick to point out that the HTC Desire features a smaller screen but retains similar specs.

Anyone looking to pick this one up?

Amazon Offers Samsung Epic 4G For $200 With 2-Year Sprint Contract

samsungepic4gamazon

Samsung has long been one of the world’s leading handset manufacturers, but just recently have they really made strides due to the release of the Galaxy S. This shouldn’t come as a surprise considering the device features a 4.0-inch Super AMOLED display, a 1GHz processor, 512MB of RAM and of course Google’s Android mobile OS. However, in the United States the device is not called the Galaxy S but instead the Samsung Vibrant on T-Mobile, Samsung Captivate on AT&T, Samsung Fascinate on Verizon and the Samsung Epic 4G on Sprint.

While the first 3 feature pretty much identical from factors, the Epic 4G for Sprint changes thing up a bit. This device features a slide-out QWERTY keyboard and connectivity for Sprint’s high speed 4G network. However, unlike the other devices which feature a $200 price tag, the Epic 4G is sold for $250 straight from Sprint.

Luckily, Amazon is at it again offering the Samsung Epic 4G for just $200 provided you will sign a 2-year contract with Sprint. It’s not the biggest savings in the world, but it’s an extra 50 dollars you can save towards the highly anticipated Samsung Galaxy Tab, right?

HTC PC10100 AKA T-Mobile G2 Gets FCC Approval, Set To Be Carrier’s First HSPA+ Device

tmobileg2fcc

Just about every wireless carrier in the United States is moving to an upgraded mobile broadband network – Sprint has 4G, Verizon has LTE and T-Mobile has HSPA+. While these updated networks have proven themselves to be quite fast over yesteryear’s technology, not many phones have hit the network capable of running on them. Luckily, Sprint has already gotten two devices out the door with the HTC EVO 4G and Epic 4G while Verizon and T-Mobile are working feverishly to do the same.

T-Mobile let us know not too long ago that their first HSPA+ powered device was to be the G2 powered by Google’s Android. While there isn’t a solid release date for the phone, we have some information today that will warm the hopes of anyone anxiously awaiting the G2.

A device entitled the HTC PC10100 has hit the FCC and is widely known the be the codename for the T-Mobile G2. Thanks to the filing, we know that the device will feature a 1GHz processor, 5 megapixel camera with auto-focus and LED flash and 802.11 b/g/n WiFi.

As for an actual release date, like I said, only time will tell.

Samsung Galaxy Tablet to Feature 1GHz Hummingbird Processor?

samsunggalaxytab

There have been several hard hitting tablets set to compete with Apple’s ever so popular iPad. While none of these hard hitting devices, other than the Dell Streak, have actually made their way to market, they have generated a considerable amount of hype. One such tablet that should come to mind is the infamous HP Slate which we unfortunately may never see made available for consumer user.

Another tablet, the Galaxy Tablet from Samsung, we will see with Google’s Android mobile OS in tow. There’s no telling when exactly this device will ship or with what specs but we have a some-what official confirmation today. Apparently, the firmware for this tablet has leaked out today and after moseying through the code, the community has found that the Samsung Galaxy Tablet will feature 1GHz Hummingbird processor. If you’re pay9ing attention, you’ll know that the Samsung Galaxy S also features this 1GHz Hummingbird processor and it has proven itself to be more than capable. So, while it’s not from Samsung’s mouth it is from their engineers deeming it virtually official.

Now, all we need is an official release date and price point and we’ll be all set.

iPhone 4 Coming to Telus July 30th

iphone4telus

Are you a Canadian anxiously awaiting your chance to get your hands on Apple’s latest and greatest mobile handset the iPhone 4? Well, your wait is almost over as it was just made known that the device will be hitting Canadian carrier Telus on July 30th – just 9 days from now.

If you’ve been living under a rock and are not familiar with the device it features a 1GHz Apple A4 processor, 512MB of RAM, a 960 x 640 3.5-inch display, a 5 megapixel rear facing camera and a VGA front facing camera for video conference calls.

Although, if you’re looking to purchase an iPhone 4 and haven’t been following the device make note that its antenna is extremely sensitive. This means if you hold it a certain way it has been known to drop calls and lose reception fairly easily. Luckily, it’s also been confirmed that simply putting a case on the device remedies these problems.

HTC Desire HD/HTC Ace Specs Leak Out, Remain Unconfirmed

htcdesire

If you’re an Android loyalist you already know that the HTC Desire will be coming to the North American market this August, calling U.S. Cellular its home. However, what you may not know is that another device supposedly called the HTC Desire HD or HTC Ace is also in the pipeline over at HTC’s labs.

Today, some specs of the device have been supposedly leaked which include a 4.3-inch display (AMOLED or SLCD), a 1GHz processor, Android 2.2, a unibody aluminum design, 4GB of built-in storage and an 8-megapixel camera with 720p HD video recording.

There’s no telling if these specs are accurate or not so we’ll just have to wait until HTC or a participating carrier comes forth to officially announce them.
