The Taiwanese manufacturer today released an official teaser for the device-within-a-device, boasting its display, processor, economical benefits, and impressive battery life.
For those who may have missed the specs sprinkled throughout the promo, here's what we know so far:
Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich
Snapdragon S4 dual-core processor at 1.5GHz
4.3" Super AMOLED qHD display (the tablet features a 10.1" display, no word on resolution)
8MP rear shooter (featuring a 5-element f/2.2 lens)
Stylus/Headset accessory
Over 14,000mAh battery power between the pad, phone, and dock
Overall, the PadFone is still looking like a pretty intriguing device. Despite the fact that the video seems to have hit a speed-bump in editing (the entire sequence repeats itself sans audio), it still provides viewers with an official piece of media to confirm that the device is still coming. The release of an official promo could also mean that we're due for more information any time now. Source : AndroidPolice
At any rate, it will be interesting to see whether ASUS' unquestionably novel device can pull off the concept of a phone-powered tablet without coming off as merely a gimmick.

I just want to know a price on this. And what service providers the phone part is compatible with.

HTC Scorpion to pack 1.5GHz Snapdragon? / Get Android 2.2 Froyo on the iphone

HTC cranks out Android handsets like candy corn – and we love that. The only downside to this, however, is that each new leak has us drooling before the last leak even has time to become a real product.
Our salivary glands were just warming up for the HTC Incredible and the HTC Legend, but now we’ve got the HTC Scorpion (possibly codenamed “Olympian”) to dream about. According to the very-latest of leaks, this thing might pack a scorchingly fast 1.5 Ghz processor and the as-of-yet unreleased Android v2.2.
The emphasis in that last sentence, though, should be placed on “might”. We’re by no means 100% convinced this thing exists. Someone hooked the guys over at AndroidSpin up with what is reportedly a build file from this “Scorpion” device. The catch here, is that this leak is purely text – no images, no video, and thus, nothing tough to fake.

The first pictures of what we are expecting to be the LG Nexus (LG-E960) appeared giving us a glimpse of what Google has in store for November. Many of you were quick to point out the case surrounding it that seemed to be some sort of a dummy box, meant to disguise the device. Previous rumors had stated that the device actually looked more like a Galaxy Nexus in shape and size.
LG Nexus phone that the internet can’t stop talking about, and according to an XDA user, this is that same phone. He hasn’t said much about it’s origin other than a “random source” gave it to him and that it seems like a prototype.
As we can see from the pictures, it’s running stock Android 4.1.2 (Jelly Bean) and carries the codename Mako. In the past, Nexus devices all hid under fish names until they were released, so this at least looks good for the sake of this being a Nexus. The shape and styling are as plain black as you can get, but it does have on-screen navigation keys, something Google introduced to smartphones with the Galaxy Nexus.
Other than that, we have a couple of side shots that show a volume rocker and power switch on opposite sides of one another. We can see a camera with a flash on the back side and an LG boot animation (which is odd if this is a Nexus).
From the About screen, we can see that the device is running JellyBeanMR1 and goes by the codename Mako, just like the device from earlier. The camera on the back isn’t branded with 8MP or 13MP, but we are expecting it to be one or the other, just like in the two Optimus G variants..
What do you guys think? Liking? Hating?

The device is possibly set to arrive in at least two flavours, according to multiple reports: one plastic, the other metal. It will also pack in all the latest hardware and technology, so don’t be surprised to find at least 3GB of RAM, a 2K resolution display, a completely re-worked exterior design and a fresh lick of paint on the custom TouchWiz UI.
Qualcomm’s new Snapdragon 805 chipset is likely to feature in the UK version, while Galaxy S5 units bound for Asia are said to benefit from Samsung’s own 64-bit Exynos 6 CPU. With regards to a launch date it’s looking increasingly likely Samsung will launch the device at a London event in March, though there are still plenty of eyes on Mobile World Congress (MWC) for the end of February.
That’s a brief summary, however, so read on to find out all the juicy details about the Samsung Galaxy S5.
Chinese site Tencent is reporting the company aims to lose its super AMOLED display but it is based on “unconfirmed information.” That information does suggest though that Sharp is going to provide 5.25-inch 2K Ultra HD LTPS displays which have a higher pixel density of 560 pixels-per-inch (ppi).

OS: Android 4.4.2
CPU: MTK6592M
Display: 5-inch, QHD
RAM: 1GB
ROM: 8GB
Camera: 5MP/8MP
Battery: 2100mAh
The phone feels very thin and light. It's edges are made from plastic but deliver a feel of metal like iPhone 5. It's battery is long and narrow, and its SIM and TF slots lives to the right of the battery rather than on the top as in most other phones. Such a design may leave better space for circuits to get through and be good for the cooling of components.
I got the chance to have just a look at the the sample, and when it is avaiable for me again. i'll make a detailed review. And there are some photos about the Neon N2Q i took my own phone.
I've had this phone in for reviewing purposes and wrote a full review here. Axgio Neon N2Q Review
It's an interesting smartphone for just $110. I actually only disliked the camera and the screen resolution could have been a bit better. Overall quite okay especially considering the price.

yep, the camera is not good. About the display resolution, yes, it's low, but meanwhile, it can be easily drived by the not-so-snappy MTK6592M, so when the N2Q runs some demanding games like real racing 3 or Asphalt 8, it handles quite gracefully.

[Q] Nexus 5 2015?

Guys I am really interested in your opinion for the new Nexus 5 2015 version. Would you want it and would you buy it? Personally I would be delighted if google makes another Nexus 5 with updated specs and fingerprint sensor with USB type C so it has fast charging like S6 has. The design can be the same, just little bit thinner and more "modern". What are your opinion guys? Please don't hesitate to post your opinion as it matters. Maybe if google sees this thread they change their mind and make another beloved N5
Here is one amazing concept made by Miqdal Abdul Halim

"Concept" renderings and projections are a pointless waste of time. Exynos 7420? It's already been stated that it'll have a Snapdragon 808. Dual front-facing speakers? I'd welcome it, but LG hasn't made any phone with that yet, so I'd doubt that. AMOLED? Unlikely. It'll probably be the same screen they put in the G2. I also wouldn't be surprised if all the buttons were on the back.
But yeah, I'm definitely interested in this new Nexus 5. As long as the pricing is more like the old Nexus 4/5, and not the 6, and the camera doesn't suck.
If I were to cave in to all this fanciful wanting and wishing that pervades this "concept" nonsense we're always inundated with every time a new flagship is rumored, I'd hope for a microSD slot. Android M apparently will once again have the ability (without root) to move apps to external storage, meaning we don't have to pay unreasonable amounts of for storage upgrades simply because we want to play Asphalt 8 and Game of Thrones on the same device and have enough space left to take a few pictures.
