Posted in: Mobile Accessories 14 hours ago by Vince Okay, the Nokia Wireless Charging accessories are seriously cool, but what if you want more than just charge your phone? Nokia thought of this as well and has teamed up with JBL to introduce the PowerUp Wireless Charging Speaker. There’s also the PlayUp Wireless Speaker, but it doesn’t offer charging. Both accessories however, come with NFC and Bluetooth connectivity. Here are the promo videos, which do a pretty good job of summing up the key features of the new speakers. Pricing and availability isn’t known yet, but should be available in the weeks to come. Source View the original article here

The Samsung I8530 Galaxy Beam is a fairly unique device with its built-in pico-projector. Samsung has put a big 2000mAh battery inside the smartphone, which is almost as big as the one on the Galaxy S III, and given that there’s only a dual-core processor and a smaller 4? LCD to feed we expected it to fare quite well in our test. We put the Galaxy Beam through our usual battery testing procedures and we are now ready to share our findings with you. On a 3G network, the Samsung Galaxy Beam rations its battery very carefully and lasted for the almost unbelievable 11 hours and 58 minutes. It managed to beat the official estimate of just under 10 hours by quite a bit.

Posted in: Android, Battery tests, Featured 16 hours ago by Peter The Meizu MX 4-core is a revamped version of the ambitions MX smartphone, which challenged both the iPhone and its Android kin alike with a heavily customized OS. The MX 4-core, as the name suggests, uses a quad-core Exynos chipset from Samsung (like the one in the Galaxy S III) and also has a slightly bigger battery than its predecessor – 1700mAh vs. 1600mAh. What other changes has Meizu done under the hood to improve battery life? The Chinese haven’t gone into specifics, but we saw improvement across the board. The original MX posted a pretty respectable talk time endurance, but the Meizu MX 4-core beats its achievement by over an hour. That makes it one of the best performers in this category and puts it within 20 minutes of the Samsung Galaxy S III (which packs a far larger 2100mAh battery).
