Hey everybody. Just want to let you know that my Uncle William, actually works at Nokia in the UK at the moment, for helping Nokia release their 5 New phones. (Just like Sony..) He will probably be attending as one of the Nokia section host's at Barcelona, bit I'm not 100% sure on that, as He hasn't made a clear statment yet on that, and also that I live in NZ.[emoji14]Below are 2 phones that he knows about that are being released soon, and announced at MWC 2017. The other 3 will have specs between the first and second phone below.
A lot of leaks toward another Nokia phone, the Nokia 8, is also going to be one of, but since most of the specs are already leaked, I won't share that info.
Also note that all 5 of the phones that will be unveiled at MWC 2017 will have 4G LTE Connectivity.
The first phone will be called the "Nokia IP1." The Specs are as followed down below. (Note that * means may/may not.)
-6GB RAM
-4G LTE
-Android 7.1
-Selection up to 256GB of built-in storage
-QHD Screen*
-3400Mah Battery*
-Snapdragon 835*
-Water & Dust Resistance* (The name "IP" sort of hints it.)
My uncle basically told me these info above about how it will definitely have 4G, Android 7.1, 6GB of RAM and 256GB of storage, but unsure about the rest. I can definitely say however that this will be certainly the new Nokia flagship phone of 2017, as the specs of the IP1 is miles ahead better than the already out Nokia 6. The price he told me will just be a little more than the Nokia 6. Having said that, he hasn't told me by how much "little" nore it will cost, but I would guess that it would cost under $350US, or even lower if were lucky.
He didn't send me any photos as he hasn't seen the phone for it self yet.
...Now the second phone is actually a fun one. The next phone is called the Nokia Retro, or alternatively called the new Nokia 3310. Now there aren't yet any official specs given on this phone apart from it's 4G Capability, price tag and RAM capacity, as he doesn't know much about the specs by himself, (He hasn't been given any info.) however, we may see this phone in the lower spec section than the IP1 as the price of the Retro/3310 will be ~168 Pounds. The specs are as followed..
-2GB RAM
-4G LTE
-Snapdragon 650/652*
-2800Mah Battery*
-Android 7.0 OR 7.1*
Having said that, he has also sent me a picture of what the phone will probably look like. Note that the picture he sent me, he had explained that the image is a mockup of what the actual phone will look like, which why I asked him why there was a picture of the Android Lollipop Homescreen in the phone. But personally looking at the design, I do like the nostalgic design of the phone! (Please don't start and say that I have photoshopped this. I'm not that good with photoshop. ) Hope you guys enjoy this news post. If you don't believe me, then I guess we can just wait and see what happens at MWC 2017 at Barcelona on the 26th February! Cheers.

Well its about time we heard some good news about the Sony Ericsson’s highly anticipated device Xperia X1. Its got a great specification and a cool new User Interface and we started hearing about the device a while back with no release date in sight.
Here is a quote from reghardware.co.uk
In a recent promotional email, retailer Expansys said that the phone’s “release date is set for week 41 (Oct 6-12)”. Expansys also said the “arc slider” handste will cost £590 ($1100/€740), SIM-free.
The launch date is still open to some interpretation, though. An Expansys spokesman told Register Hardware that although it’s received “a couple of demo units through from Sony Ericsson”, he still didn’t have a confirmed release date - despite the email.
On the plus side, the spokesman added that the arrival of demo units is a sure sign that the handset will be available to customers in the near future.

$1,100...wow, that's alot for a phone. I'm not sure any phone is worth that price of admission. Hopefully a major carrier picks this thing up and subsidizes the price, because I've been wanting one since I first heard about it.
In my opinion they wait too much and of course is expensive too.
it's not easy to compare prices with
phones without contracts with ones bougth with a contract
as the phone company pay the most of the init price
and more then make up for that expense with their subscription prices
same reason why an iphone 3g dont cost what steve said it would when was
released because of a non transparent expense model
where i live it's the law that all comercials for phones state the real min price
of the phone when the suscription binding period is over
which is always higher then finding the device unlocked on some internet store
I an tied between this and Touch Pro. I might go with Touch Pro in the End
I too was very excited when first saw the Xperia. But for many I think Sony Ericsson have lost on time. The HTC Touch Pro was announced much later but is already available in some markets.
Gradually I find myself getting more and more inclined towards the HTC rather than the Xperia. For me the larger RAM and the Flush Screen are he the major advantages of the HTC Touch Pro over the Xperia
Regards
TV Out
Better Keyboard
Accelorometer
on Touch Pro
WVGA, 480 x 800, bigger the better.
3.0" Screen, bigger the better.
3,5mm for headphones.
1500 mAh, in stock version.
I`m hoping that SE will do their best on multimedia part of this phone and ofc, it has better look ^_^
Tho I dunno about keyboard, I mean which one has better since I haven`t obviously tested either one, but could you say why Touch Pro has better keyboard ? : o
Anyway, both Touch Pro and Xperia are great winmo phones : )
"For me the larger RAM and the Flush Screen are he the major advantages of the HTC Touch Pro over the Xperia"
current spcs show that x1 got as much ram as touch pro
XDA Emulator/sdk
Hey all:
http://www.betanews.com/article/Xperia_emulator_featured_in_new_Sony_Ericsson_SDK/1220475788
an emulator for the xperia has been released with the new SE SDK, with any luck that will mean new apps that we may b able to easly port over to run on our HTC devices, especially the diamond and touch pro
(note to run the SDK files you need Visual Studio 2005)
Looks not bad and i think the price get low early.

Panasonic ???
iPhone | ??? | GSII
Specs are actually unknown but they wanna make high end devices. All we know is that it will be dust/water resistant. Perfect for me. If I get any opportunity to change my OB, it will be a "PanaPhone".
CES 2012 will be great
It looks so much so like my old HTC diamond
Panasonic announced plans to launch its first global smartphone in Europe next year in March. Company has not sold mobile phones in Europe since January 2006.
In the announcement company has not declared its name but did say that this slim bezel phone features an ultra-slim D-shaped design for easy portability with a 4.3-inch qHD OLED screen and would be waterproof and dustproof. Other specs are undisclosed...........

Good to see them getting back into the smart phone game. More competition means better quality phones for all.
I look forward to seeing what they release in March.
panasonic phone looks like the Prada phone
That actually looks pretty good
they arrive a little late, hoping this won't affect their ambitions. It will also be very good if launch prices are not too high. I'm very interrested of that.
the price and how commen the components are would sell me on them.

Have to wonder how waterproof/dustproof will relate to repairing devices.
Some companies have made it easier (apple) but every android phone I have opened has been a hassle! Maybe they will just glue them shut so nobody can open them
I should say Jp's industrial design is great
It is a interesting sharing........
Always been a fan of Panasonic, let's hope these continue their line of excellent products.
The last and only time I had a Panasonic phone was back in the days when phones had external antennas!!
if panasonic can somehow get their LX5 camera with phone capability running Android ICS, I would buy that phone in a heart beat.
I like their design but sadly they never have a single phone that's run on my carrier's frequency band.

Image via: Phone Arena
Phone Arena was just sent alleged press images of the upcoming ASUS-Google Nexus 7 tablet. If the images are real, the Nexus 7 will be a three-toned tablet, with a white front to the tablet and a two-toned black and gray backplate. I’m not quite sold on the three-tone look, so here’s hoping the Nexus 7 will come in two color schemes (white and black/gray) similar to other Android tablets.
Sources for Phone Arena confirmed that the device will in fact feature a Tegra 3 processor, and that the tablet would launch with Android 4.1, commonly believed to be the launch version number for Jelly Bean.
From the press shots, we noticed that the Nexus Tablet features a speaker on the front of the device, a common placement for speakers on phones as opposed to tablets, where speakers are normally located on tablets.
This speaker location leads us to believe that the Nexus Tablet will likely be able to make phone calls using Google Voice or other VOIP services. If not, having a speaker on the front of the device still makes sense to us, as it tends to result in better sound output.
We should be learning more about the Nexus Tablet at Google I/O at the end of this month, with a widespread launch slated for July. The Nexus Tablet is expected to retail in the $150-$250 range to take on the Kindle Fire and a rumored 7″ iPad that could be launching later this year. Stay tuned for updates.

My vote?
Fake.
Look at the front of it.
It looks too much like the Galaxy Note (Even up to the sensors and the camera)
Also the whole ratio seems bonkers.
I've got a 7" tablet and that looks a lot more like a 4,5 or 5" phone (scaled up?) to me.

As long as Asus releases their own MeMO 370T tablet, I don't care about this watered down Nexus Tablet.
Definitely not sure what to think about these pictures though. Interesting find, nonetheless.
Also, what's the deal with Computex? Was Asus just there on June 4th and that's it? Just curious because nothing about their Nexus Tablet or ME370T (just went through FCC) was even mentioned. All the rage was about the AiO Windows/Android tablets. Is Computex 2012 over?
According to recent reports, we may see two Nexus devices this year , one made from Huawei and another one from LG. It looks like one of the Nexus devices just made an entry in the AnTuTu benchmarking site, blowing everyone’s mind with a score of more than 85000!

If you remember, the Samsung Exynos 7420 chipset is currently on top of AnTuTu with 65000+ points. However, with a score of over 85,000 this Nexus device beats Samsung’s chip by over 20,000 points.
This brings us to the big question, what exactly is running inside this Nexus device? Well, AntuTu 5 doesn’t reveal much about the specs inside the device, but the phone probably will come with the new Snapdragon 820 chip from Qualcomm. While the score is still too good to be true, considering Qualcomm’s desperate need for a comeback with 820, the company could have boosted its performance to a whole new level.
What we do know is that the phone will be called as the Nexus 5 (2015) model , which probably means that LG is not sticking with the incremental naming policy. Also, this may also give us a clue about the screen size, as you can expect it to be around 5-inches (5.2-inch would be just perfect). The Nexus 6 came with a monstrous 5.9-inch display, but it was too big to handle. So, this could actually be a good move. The resolution is surprisingly just FHD, which would be a downgrade from the QHD display on the Nexus 6.
Anyways, if the performance of Snapdragon 820 is really this good, we would like to know whether it overheats like the current generation 810. But we hope Qualcomm will have learnt its lesson by now.
Usually, Google announces its Nexus devices in fourth quarter of the year and we expect the company to continue the tradition this year too. By then, there could be a couple of Snapdragon 820 powered smartphones like Xiaomi Mi5 in the market. So, things could get interesting pretty soon!

Does anybody have a clue when this is going to happen? I'm sick of waiting, the longer I wait the more I think I could just be purchasing an LG G4.
On that note, can anybody persuade me into NOT buying the G4? I mean aside from the back facing speaker there really is not that much different about it, right? I mean sure, you've got the not-so-useful water resistance, and the 1440p display (which isn't IPS and is supposedly obsoleted by the G4's display, especially in terms of power saving potential by comparison to the Style). And about those customization options.... is it really worth it to buy a Style when I could just as easily make my g4 look like this with a dbrand skin?

I fell in love when I saw the specs for the Style, but then I realised I'd have to pre-order it, and it's more expensive than a g4, and it's arguably not as good, especially in terms of the camera.... Some of those video and picture demonstrations of the G4 on youtube are mind blowing, but the Style seems to leave a lot to be desired, especially with those weird glowing light spots on video and image. I dunno, someone give me an opinionated rant on why the Moto X Style is better, I'm begging you.
Or.... is it a bad time to buy a device? Should I not just wait for the next generation of devices that contain the Snapdragon 820?
If you don't value near stock Android with Moto enhancements and hopefully quicker updates and the ability to take your phone to any carrier and better radios for cell reception and call quality then maybe the slightly better camera and removable battery of the G4 should interest you or wait for 2016 and the 820 processor.

G4 camera > MPX..actually not a wide gap but the manual controls of G4 pushes it ahead, particularly at night.
If you're on T-Mobile, G4 has wifi calling now; Moto won't have till M
I guess you can put removable battery but the Moto Turbo Charging is twice the speed of the G4's quick charging.
Besides that, nothing else would put the G4 over the Moto X
So yeah, anybody know when I'm going to be able to buy one of these things with all of the accessories through moto maker in the UK?
Motorola said that it would be available before the end of the month. No exact date given.

Id also like to know about the release date for the UK as i cant find any solid info yet
It appears many UK users have been chasing for a solid date on @motorolaUK for quite a while.
Judging from their tweet replies,
1. It should come out soon (likely to be before the end of month?)
2. TurboPower chargers are yet to be released for ordering online (hopefully it would be ready by pre-orders)
3. The waiting time between Moto Maker order date to delivery date is normally up to 12 working days.
4. Pre-order on Clove states that the first stock is due on 21 Sep.
