Samsung has taken the wrapper off its rumored smartphone with a curved OLED display. The Galaxy Round, which will launch on SK Telecom in South Korea, has a 5.7-inch 1080p screen the same size as seen on the company's Galaxy Note 3, but there's a difference — it curves on the vertical axis in a similar fashion to some of Samsung's OLED TVs.

Check battery life by tilting your phone on a table

The potential benefit of this screen technology isn't quite clear yet, but Samsung is touting a new feature called "Round Interaction," which allows you to look at information such as missed calls, battery life, and the date and time when you tilt it on a flat surface with the screen off. Samsung also claims that switching between home screens will feel like one continuous transition, and has worked on new tilt- and tap-based interactions for the music and photos apps.

 

Aside from the unconventional screen, the Galaxy Round has an impressive spec sheet. It's 7.9mm thick, weighs 154g, and has a 2800mAh battery. The camera is 13 megapixels, like the Galaxy S4 and Note 3, and the phone runs Android 4.3 atop 3GB of RAM and a 2.3GHz quad-core processor. It'll be released tomorrow in "Luxury Brown" for 1.09 million won (about $1,013) with more colors coming soon; no details of an international launch have been made available.

T-Mobile announcement unlimited global data roaming at no extra charge!!!!!!!!!!!

 

its totally amazing this time!!! 

Unlimited data and text plus discounted voice calling in over 100 countries are automatically included

T-Mobile unveiled the latest part of its Uncarrier initiative today: the carrier is offering unlimited international data and text services at no extra charge starting October 31st. The new international services will be available to existing Simple Choice customers for no additional cost over their current rate plans, and will work in over 100 countries across the world. In addition to the data and texting services, traveling customers will be able to place voice calls at a flat rate of 20 cents per minute while in those countries.

T-Mobile's new plans are significantly different than the industry is accustomed to — most international roaming plans are prohibitively expensive and have limited caps for data and text messaging.  

 CEO John Legere says that the included countries cover "pretty much everywhere people travel, about 95 percent of where people go."

Unlimited data and text plus discounted voice calling in over 100 countries are automatically included

        The carrier didn't provide a lot of details for the new plan — it didn't really describe the level of service that customers would get while they are in foreign countries. The company is providing options for customers to pay more for faster service while abroad: there will be options for daily, weekly, and two-week packages that provide the "fastest speeds we can deliver" over the standard, included unlimited service. While the company says the included data should be good enough for emails, social network status updates, and even streaming music, it's not particularly fast: just 128 kilobytes per second on average, chief marking officer Mike Sievert told CNET.

 Texting from the US to any of those countries is unlimited. Simple Choice customers are able to add the new plan to their existing service for $10 per month.

       In addition to the new, free roaming services, T-Mobile is also launching its new Stateside International Talk & Text feature, which offers discounted calling and text messaging from the United States to all of its participating Simple Choice countries. Calls to mobile phones will be 20 cents per minute, while calls to landlines are unlimited in over 70 of those countries. 

Amazon's new Kindle Fire HDX tablets: the full story

Amazon's new Kindle Fire HDX tablets: the full story

Best buy @ iphone5

 Amazon is rolling out the brand-new Kindle FIre HDX with upgraded everything tonight, but last year's Kindle Fire HD isn't going anywhere anytime soon. In fact, the company announced that it is updating the tablet and cutting its price down to $139 — a very aggressive price point for a still-competitive tablet.

It also comes pre-loaded with the new Fire OS 3.0 software based on Android and includes improvements to X-Ray and other Kindle features. The Fire HD does not have the new Mayday live help feature coming with the Fire HDX, but it does give users the option to view their apps in a grid instead of just in the traditional Kindle carousel. Amazon claims that Fire OS 3.0 offers improved touch responsiveness compared to standard Android thanks to low-level improvements to touch latency.

You can place a pre-order for the new Kindle Fire HD today, with units expected to ship starting on October 2nd. Additionally, Amazon is offering a set of optional folding Origami covers for the tablet, which let users stand it up on a table or protect it the screen from damage.

Compared to the Kindle Fire HD, the new models feature a jump in display density (216 PPI to 323 PPI for the 7" and 254 to 339 PPI for the 9"), a switch from a dual-core TI OMAP Cortex-A9 (at 1.2/1.5GHz) to a quad-core 2.2GHz Qualcomm Snapdragon, and a bump from 1G to 2G of RAM. On the software side, Android has been upgraded from 4.0 to 4.2.2 and Amazon added a few new features to their applications.

Amazon also announced the third generation of its Fire OS (the forked version of Android that runs the Fire tablets), dubbed “Mojito.”

Amazon made the announcement with little fanfare. The company did not have a fancy launch event where CEO Jeff Bezos or any of his top lieutenants stood on stage to pose for cameras with the device. Amazon just quietly sent a press release overnight packed with information about the new Fire tablets.

The 7-inch Kindle Fire HDX is likely the flagship of the series. Amazon has given both sizes of the HDX tablets a significant bump in hardware specifications. Both HDX tablets will runs a Snapdragon quad-core 2.2 GHz processor with 2 GB of RAM and twice the memory of last year’s Kindle Fire HD tablets. Amazon has packed a Adreno 330 graphics processor into the HDX tablets for better image rendering that will help the tablets running higher powered games.

The screens on the 7-inch and 8.9-inch Fire HDX tablets also got a spec upgrade. The 7-inch version ships with 1920x1200 pixel dimensions, good for 323 pixels per square inch (ppi). The 8.9-inch Fire HDX runs a screen at 2560x1600 (339 ppi).

The Kindle Fire HDX 8.9-inch will also come with an 8-megapixel rear facing camera.

Amazon also has several new software and content features for the Kindle Fire HDX tablets. Foremost among them is the ability to download Amazon Prime Instant Video movies and television straight to the tablets for offline viewing. Previously, Prime Instant Video was only available for streaming through Kindle Fire tablets. 

Amazon also released what it calls a “Mayday Button” for users that need instant tech support for their Fire tablets. The Amazon Kindle Fire expert will appear on your tablet within 15 seconds of pushing the Mayday Button to guide you through whatever tech problems you may be having with you device. 

The new Fire HDX tablets also have a new feature Amazon calls “Second Screen” which has the ability to stream content from your Kindle Fire to a television set. Second Screen will work with the PlayStation 3 and Samsung Smart TVs or any Miracast-enabled accessories. 

Amazon has also improved its “X-Ray” features that allow users to look up aspects of their content from within books, video and now music.

Amazon has also updated the enterprise-grade features on its Fire HDX tablets with new support for device encryption, Kerberos Intranet, secure Wi-Fi connections and VPN integration

 

All three of the new Kindle Fire tablets are available for preorder today and will ship on October 18th. The Kindle Fire HDX 7-inch will sell for $229 (with a 4G LTE version for $329). The 8.9-inch Fire HDX will sell for $379 ($479 with 4G LTE).

Samsung counters iPhone 5S with a golden Galaxy S4

Samsung counters iPhone 5S with a golden Galaxy S4

 

• Samsung has unveiled two limited edition Galaxy S4 smartphones in gold and pink, and gold and brown colour combinations

• They will currently only be available to the United Arab Emirates market

• Last week a scarcity of the gold-colored iPhone 5S models drove ebay auction prices for the coveted devices into the five figures

It seems that Samsung follow the Apple rumour mill just as closely as we do, as TechCrunch said: "planning and announcing a smartphone cannot happen in two weeks. Not even for Samsung.

"Samsung likely knew with a high degree of certainty that a gold iPhone was in the pipeline. Samsung had plenty of time to prep their own model.

Two weeks after Apple's September 10th reveal of a champagne-colored iPhone, Samsung is launching its own golden phone in the shape of a new Gold Edition Galaxy S4. There are two options, Gold Pink or Gold Brown, which Samsung is proudly showing off on its United Arab Emirates social media outlets. It's doubtful that these handsets will make it to a global distribution — they look to be targeted at the same well-off demographic that might consider buying a handset like the Nokia Oro — but the important thing is that Samsung can now claim to also have a golden flagship product.

Update: Samsung has clarified that the first golden GS4 units arrived in stores on September 8th, therefore it technically preempted the golden iPhone by two days.

A scarcity of the gold-colored iPhone 5S models drove ebay auction prices for the coveted items into the five figures.

On Monday this week, a single, unopened and unlocked 16GB gold Apple iPhone, which retails for around $200 in the U.S. on contract, sold for $10,100 (£6,295) following a brief but bitter bidding war on the auction website.

Tim Cook, Apple’s CEO, said: 'This is our best iPhone launch yet - more than nine million new iPhones sold―a new record for first weekend sales.'

'The demand for the new iPhones has been incredible and while we’ve sold out of our initial supply of iPhone 5s, stores continue to receive new iPhone shipments regularly.'

But according to Forbes, unless you ordered your gold iPhone in the first hour it became available Friday, it won’t be shipping until October.

Apple also took a gamble on demand for novel coloured smartphone with the launch of its iPhone 5C handsets.

Much like the unexpected demand of the gold iPhone 5S handset, the pink version of the cheaper handset has been a big success.

Sales figures show Apple's gamble with colourful iPhones is paying off, with the pink model accounting for 46 per cent of sales - almost more than all the other colours combined

Reports from iPhoneStockChecker.co.uk found that the blue model is the second most-popular device, accounting for 32 per cent of 5C sales.

In third place is green, at 12 per cent, followed by white at 9 per cent and yellow brings up the rear, accounting for just 1 per cent of sales.

Apple could be looking to take this strategy into the iPad part of the business. Experts have already said there could be at least two new iPads released as soon as next month.

which phone u like to buy samsung or iphone????
