Microsoft is all set for the MWC 2015. The company has just revealed it will be holding a press conference Monday, March 2 early in the morning. More specifically, the Redmond company will be sharing its new products 8:30am CET (that's 1 March 23:30PST). Microsoft is quite probably going to focus on the Lumia 635 with bumped specs. The Lumia 1330 is also expected to make a debut. It is tipped to pack a Qualcomm Snapdragon 400 SoC, 1GB of RAM, and 5.7" 720p display, and 32GB of onboard storage. The device's main camera is said to be a 14MP PureView unit, coupled with a 5MP front-facing snapper. We won't be surprised if the Redmond company reveals its future plans for its mobile software and services. Recently, Microsoft launched an Android tablet keyboard, so we may be in for a wild ride on this front. Microsoft's live stream follows those of HTC and Samsung. They're happening on Sunday, so be sure to mark them on your calendars. Source View the original artic...

At its mysterious event in San Francisco today, Xiaomi has announced that it plans to open its own online store in the US in a few months. However, the caveat of the century follows. See, Xiaomi will not be selling smartphones or tablets through that storefront. So the most craved items it makes will still be off limits to US-based customers, at least in an official manner. Instead, Xiaomi will offer its increasing range of accessories, such as headphones (pictured above), fitness bands, power banks, and more. The US isn't the only 'western' market targeted by the company - it will bring is online store to other countries too. One of the reasons why phones and tablets won't be made available for US customers is that apparently Xiaomi finds that localization of its MIUI ROM (which is reportedly being used on 100 million devices already) is very difficult. There are also (unnamed) issues with hardware certification, software testing, infrastructure, as well as other logi...

Posted in: Windows August 3rd, 2012, 14:13 by Kyle Just yesterday Microsoft announced Windows 8 is finally ready and released to manufacturing. Today its Enterprise N version is all over the torrent servers. The N version stands for a stripped down version, which lacks the Windows Media Player – a requirement ruled by the European Commission 8 years ago. The leaked ISO is for the x64 version of the Enterprise N editions (there might be x86 somewhere too) and is not bootable. This means you must start the installation under Windows. There was another leak yesterday for the 32-bit standard version of Windows 8, but I have my doubts it might be fake. Anyway, it is now confirmed that the final build is 9200. I recommend you stay away from these early leaks for various reasons – they require activation so they might work only for a few (3-30) days, they might have some nasty viruses and also because one thing is for sure – come October, you’ll have to re-install Windows all over again.

A 30 second advertisement showing off the multitasking capabilities of the Galaxy Note  in addition to other features is now available online. A modeling agency, Step Management, has uploaded the video online showing the tablet being used in a business environment. Unfortunately the video does not shed light on the release date, specifications or the price. The video focusses on the tablet being used with a variety of apps like Multiscreen and Shape Match to create a pie chart from a free hand drawing. The specs of the tablet are expected to include the 1.4Ghz quad core processor from the Galaxy SIII along with 1GB RAM. The 10.1? tablet is believed to include a slot for the S Pen. With the upcoming Samsung event scheduled for 15th August, we expect the Note 10.1 to be a major contender for the products to be launched. Video embedded below.
