Samsung Gear S


Samsung has a long tradition of making crazy ideas happen, the Gear S is no exception as it is probably the first consumer smartwatch to offer 3G  and GPS capabilities without being linked to another device . The stand-alone 3G smartwatch , which looks a bit like a stretched out Samsung Gear fit , will basically handle almost all the basic tasks of your phone as this is powered not by Android wear , but Samsung's very own Tizen . The Tizen OS , which already runs on almost all the Gear smartwatches has a good selection of apps so you won't feel bad .The display , which is a curved AMOLED , has a resolution of 480x360 and is 2" in size . The watch comes with 512MB of RAM ,4GB of local storage and a 1.2 Ghz Dual core processor . The watch features 2G /3G quadBand ,Wifi 802.11a/b/g/n ,Bluetooth  4.1 ,USB 2.0 for data , GPS and GLONASS .The Gear S will come with a kind of awkward 300mAh battery , and considering that this is a 3G "phone" that might possibly turnout to be a issue , but Tizen probably has some improvements  to tweak a little more juice from that .and in case- you have some issue with battery life , or find it awkward to talk to your phone in public , Samsung has made a optional bluetooth accessory to go along with the watch called the "Gear circle" .

HTC One to sell as TD 101 at China Mobile

HTC decided to invest in such a brand by launching the One series of smartphones last year, although the company was not able to impose its own product names to certain carriers. Then, just a few days ago, the company launched the HTC One, which is going to be the company’s only One-branded handset this year, a make-or-break kind of project for the Taiwanese Android maker that’s still having a tough time fighting against the competition, especially Samsung. We were under the impression that HTC will further invest in its One brand and not budge to carrier demands anymore when it comes to changing the name of the product – in the U.S., AT&T, Sprint and T-Mobile are going to sell it as the HTC One. But it looks like things aren’t necessarily so, and no, it’s not Verizon that’s going to get its way selling the One as the Droid DNA Plus, as it was recently rumored. We’re looking at China Mobile this time around, which has announced the HTC One as the HTC TD 101. That’s certa...
