On this side we also find a standard USB port and switch. The front is reserved to the standard HDMI connector to plug the Compute Stick to your TV or any screen. Inside an cpu Intel Atom Z3735F quad core is responsible for providing the processing power of the computer. The RAM is 2GB and internal storage capacity of 32 GB.

Samsung Galaxy S6 all the rumors in a row – Apparata

Posted on 13-01-2015 at 13:48 by Lars – 2 Comments »

 Samsung Galaxy S6 Rumors
New information on the new flagship of Samsung continues to flow in, time to put all the rumors once identified.

Rumor: Galaxy S6 comes in two different models
 Galaxy S6 Frame
According to sources who are close to Samsung, the company will launch two different models of the Galaxy S6. One will have a metal frame, which recently surfaced on the internet (see the picture above).

The other model will have a curved screen that extends into the side, as we saw earlier with the Galaxy Note Edge. This side screen will probably be used in a similar way:. To where you always have access to lost a menu

The probability that there is a metal version is relatively large, especially when you consider that Samsung Lately already experimenting with metal housings. For example, look at the Galaxy Alpha. The Galaxy Note 4 appeared in two sizes, one with a curved screen and one without.

According to the sources previously leaked information about the S6, the Note 4 would have served as a test to see if the market needed two different models.

Rumor: The software of the S6 is a lot simpler
 Galaxy S6 Touchwiz
Anonymous sources told the website Business Korea recently that the software we on S6 will encounter a much easier than we used to.

Android will still serve as basic software, but over it is applied a new, own layer of Samsung. This Touchwiz layer according to the sources easier than ever, partly because Samsung removes various unnecessary features.

The sources compare the revamped Touchwiz with the design of the software on the Nexus 6 of Google. An advantage of this simpler approach is that the operating system takes up less space on the S6.

Rumor: The specifications and the camera
 Samsung S6 Curved
The standard model of the S6 will be equipped with a storage capacity of 32GB. There is also a new Snapdragon 810 processor available, which is supported by 4GB of memory. This is a relatively large for a smartphone, as some laptops also have to do with 4GB RAM. Heavier programs run on the S6 should therefore be no problem.

About the camera of the S6 is still relatively little known. Well he could zoom better and have better filters to filter out ambient noise when recording a video

Rumor:. The Galaxy S6 is presented in early March
Galaxy S6 Two
Samsung will reportedly make use of the Mobile World Congress to unveil the Galaxy S6. At the same conference the company would unveil a new smart watch with around the same design as that of the Moto 360.

HTC ends Q3 on a profit despite declining sales

HTC just posted its financial results for the Q3 of the year and the company is reporting a slight decline in sales. Despite the bad news, however, the phonemaker remains profitable as cuts in costs have offset the slowing in sales.


The companys quarterly revenue is $1,38 billion (NTD 41.86 billion) of which profits were $21,1 million (NTD 0.64 billion). In comparison, the previous quarter was kinder to HTC with a revenue of $2,15 billion (NTD 65.1 billion) and profit of $75,5 million (NTD 2.3 billion).


HTC saw the largest drop in sales in July by some 33% compared to the same period last year. However, in August the company saw 10% sales jump compared to the same month of 2013. Analysts blame the launch of the iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus for HTCs 7.9% fall in sales in September.
The company hasnt specified yet how many units it managed to ship for the period. HTC launched a number of smartphones in Q3, including the high-end Butterfly 2 in Asia and the Verizon Windows Phone-driven One M8. The Desire 610 and Desire 510 broadened the companys scope in the mid-range sector.
The company is hopefully looking forward to a brighter Q4 with products like the HTC One (M8) Eye and Nexus 9 tablet (Volantis) with Nvidia Tegra K1 chip.

How to earn money fast Build a Windows Phone app and get £60 000

Microsoft is looking to encourage developers to produce apps for its Windows Phone platform, paying out vast amounts of money to get devs on board.


With the Windows Phone ecosystem still struggling to gain a serious grip on the market, being dwarfed by iOS and Android, latest reports have claimed that Microsoft is giving developers up to $100,000 (£63,000) to get high-profile app developers to turn to the Windows platform.

Sadly, this isn’t everyone’s answer for how to make money fast. Microsoft is said to be saving the big bucks to target developers with a proven track record of crafting popular, profitable applications for rival platforms, namely those made by Apple and Google.

"My friends in Silicon Valley say Microsoft has been offering $100,000 or more to companies that will build Windows Phone apps,” a reporter for Bloomberg said in a recent article. They stressed that Microsoft has paid key name developers more than $100,000 to get them to develop for Windows Phone.

Although the Windows Phone platform now has more than 145,000 apps, it still lags a long way behind iOS and Android, both of which what are closing in on the 1 million apps milestone. What is more troubling for Microsoft, however, is the continuing lack of high-profile apps that are becoming something of a must have.

With Windows Phone still a system that is frequently overlooked by developers, earlier this year rival BlackBerry suggested that although it will be bringing its BBM system to iOS and Android in app form later this summer, Microsoft’s OS is still too small to be considered.

“When we look at critical masses and we look at other mobile platforms, iOS and Android at this point in time stand out to us,” Vivek Bhardwaj, Head of BlackBerry’s Software Portfolio, told us. “We are not excluding other platforms, it is just our focus needs to be on those that can get BBM to the masses and the data shows that iOS and Android make up the bulk of mobile users around the world.”

Samsung is preparing to launch a new Galaxy Grand in India

Samsung







A teaser has been released to announce the arrival of a new Galaxy Grand India. This should be the “Great” in the range. Maybe a Galaxy Grand 3 … or Galaxy Grand Max hitherto reserved for Korea.


Samsung does not usually communicate on its smartphones before their announcement. Although with its output rate instead argued, teams would soon be overwhelmed. In January alone, he presented no less than five smartphones: Galaxy Grand Max, Galaxy E5 and E7, Galaxy A7 and Galaxy J1. The honor is usually reserved for flagships S and Note range. However, the manufacturer has released a teaser for another smartphone in India.


Samsung


“The largest of the Great”


It was relayed BGR and announces the arrival of a new Grand Galaxy. The grip is quite simple. This will be the largest of the Great. We naturally think of a Grand 3, the two being on the shelves for over a year now. Our colleagues are betting on the same horse and come back on the rumors in recent months: HD screens 5.25 “Snapdragon 410 chipset, 1.5 GB RAM, 16 GB of internal memory, 13 megapixel camera at the back, 5 megapixels front …


Problem. This data sheet is precisely that of the Galaxy Grand Max formalized at the beginning of January in Korea. Samsung could therefore simply be ready to export to India, but of course we would prefer it actually has a Galaxy Grand 3 in the pipeline, notably with a larger screen to justify the grip of the teaser. We should not delay to get to the bottom.
