If you haven’t heard about Antoine Brieux/NAK Studio, it’s a real shame, since he’s a talented designer and I suggest you click his name and check out his work on our website. Now he has a fresh concept for us, the Galaxy Nexus Black S, a beautiful render that shows us how the future of Google phone flagships may look like.
It’s a pretty wide device, that packs a big 4.9 inch Super AMOLED+ display with 720p resolution and runs Android 4.0 ICS. It weighs 153 grams, measures 8.43 mm in thickness and also offers HSPA+, WiFi, Bluetooth, 32/64GB of storage, plus a 2050 mAh battery. The brain of the Galaxy Nexus Black S is a 1.4 GHz quad core processor, maybe an Exynos, maybe a future Snapdragon from Qualcomm. NFC, an accelerometer and a buttonless design fill in the blanks here, as well as 1.5GB of RAM, a plunge that no company has dared to make on the memory side so far.
The case is all aluminium unibody and you’ve got a virtual SIM card with PC adaptor included (not sure what that means). There’s a 12 megapixel camera at the back with continuous autofocus and a 3.2MP sensor upfront for videocalls. The standard 3 capacitive buttons are placed below the display and the case is slightly curved, just like the Galaxy Nexus unit from 2011. The side area of the handset reminds me a bit of the Xperia Play, if I may say so. It’s got a great metallic look that everyone will love.

Espresso 10 and Espresso 7 tablets
27/07/2012 19:55 par slaytane
The most prolific designer we’ve had on this website for years, Bob Freking recently read a piece on Phone Arena about the upcoming Samsung Espresso 10 and Espresso 7 tablets, that are supposed to launch in June. He then proceeded to design a bunch of renders to fit the newcomers. You can check them out below:
Bob wants Samsung to “battle in the high end segment” and not be happy with the lower end one. He imagines an Exynos 5 A15 processor will be on board, as well as an improved camera, to finally get rid of all those poor 3MP sensors on the latest Sammy slates. The designer wants an 8 megapixel camera this time, the same sensor on the Galaxy S II, plus a case that’s as thick as the one of the Galaxy Tab series and Android 4.0 ICS as a must have feature. Expandable storage, 4G LTE and 3G are also available.
Bob pictures the Samsung Espresso 10 and Espresso 7 as having a 2560 x 1440 resolution, that beats the one on the iPad 3 and gives the tablets a 290 ppi status. Finally, the designs came with some prices associated, such as a minimum of $399 for the 10.1 inch Espresso tablet with 16GB of storage and WiFi. Add to that 3G and the price goes to $449, add 4G and it’s $499. The 7 incher 16GB Espresso goes for $299, but once again these are merely speculations!

Galaxy Nexus+
27/07/2012 19:51 par slaytane
After yesterday’s showcasing of the Motorola Nexus RAZR concept, we have another Android 5.0 phone on our hands. This Jelly Bean device has been created by Hasan Kaymak and goes by te name Samsung Galaxy Nexus+. The device features a 4.5 inch Full HD display and a quad core processor.
There’s also an 8 megapixel camera on board, Google Voice+, a feature that’s just like Siri (or even better) and some extra UI functions. For example, the designer imagined an editable Status Bar, Dock (color, style, icons) and also a tweakable Menu style. From what I can see, the design is not totally different from the Samsung Galaxy Nexus, since it’s a Plus model afer all, like the Galaxy S II Plus and Galaxy S Plus. This means that it only adds a minor improvement or two.
In this case the improvement is particularly the CPU and mainly the camera, something that people complained about on the original Galaxy Nexus, that only had a 5Mp sensor. Android 5.0 Jelly Bean looks nice and keeps very much of the Android 4.0 design styling, so I can’t really figure out any design additions. The back button looks a bit modified, unless I’m mistaking…

Phoenix
27/07/2012 19:37 par slaytane
Time to explore Nokia Windows Phone design formats again thanks to Bob Freking, who showed us one of his latest concepts, the Nokia Phoenix. He claims that he likes the PureView phone quite a bit, but he wishes it was thinner, at least 10mm. So, he created a Windows Phone 8 dual core handset with Pureview camera on board.
Bob says that Nokia has the habit of recycling designs, so it wouldn’t be a surprise if one of the first Windows Phone 8 units was based on the PureView 808. Nokia Phoenix features a 31 megapixel camera, a 10 mm thick chassis and this is the first model made by Finns with a 4 inch HD ClearBlack AMOLED display with a density of 367 ppi. This model runs Windows Phone 8 Apollo, features 2GB of RAM and is able to record 1080p full HD video. Also, another premiere: this is the first Nokia smartphone with a dual core ARM15 processor.
As you can see there are smaller tiles on the screen, the new sizes that WP8 brings. This design involves rounded edges and a “band” with keys on it, that feels like a physical button area rather than capacitive. Since this device has a 31MP camera, I wonder what the maximum resolution of photos is…

Clarity
27/07/2012 19:35 par slaytane
Bob Freking is back with a fresh design, the one of the Nokia Clarity handset, the first Windows Phone 8 concept since the announcement of the OS this week. The phone combines Metro UI with the latest OS features and a PureView camera. As you can see, we those smaller tiles included in the Metro UI, plus a clearer interface and apparently some way to make the UI transparent.
The phone is a pretty long and wide one, so I wouldn’t be surprised if it were a 4.7 inch unit. It’s also pretty rounded at the corners and I guess that its screen is a 720p unit. Inside there should be a dual core Qualcomm CPU, unless it’s a quad core, for that extra processing power needs of the PureView camera. Nokia Clarity also supports LTE connectivity, has a 20+ megapixel camera with PureView tech, 64GB of storage, a 2MP front camera, NFC and a 2500 mAh battery.
These are all my speculations that follow the design of Bob Freking, so feel free to take them as a figment of my imagination. I think that this design is pretty good since it manages to deliver a rectangular phone with great width, rounded corners, crisp display and PureView camera, plus WP8 on board. How much would you pay for it?

Lumia Evolution
27/07/2012 19:33 par slaytane
A while ago we brought you the Nokia Lumia Evolution concept phone, created by LokiBartleby and now he’s back with more pictures and another Nokia design. The handset you see here below is called the Nokia Lumia Elements. Also, at the end of the article you’ll see two new pics of the Lumia Evolution.
As far as the newcomer Nokia Lumia Elements concept is concerned, this model features a 4.3 inch 720p AMOLED CBD display, an aluminum unibody + polycarbonate case with ceramic-like finish and Windows Phone as OS. At the back there’s a 12 megapixel camera with Carl Zeiss lens. The main idea of this Nokia concept is to get some metal into the Lumia series, that seems to focus on plastic materials. As far as the elements go, I find it very cool, especially the back side and especially the audio jack, that looks like the barrel of a gun.
At the front the device looks like a more modern Symbian device and it’s not that far from Nokia 808 PureView actually. Nokia Lumia Evolution seems more plasticky, has a pretty big speaker at the inferior side and a very pretty glassy and glossy facade. Which one do you fancy more?
And here we are with a brand new Nokia Windows Phone concept, the Lumia Evolution, that seems to feature a camera with a dual flash. This is a Windows Phone 8 Apollo model with a pretty thin waistline and somehow it reminds me a bit of the Nokia Lumia 710, although I hope it swapped its plastic back for metal.
The interesting bit is the lower side where the speaker is and the cute little audio jack with teh rounded segment around it. Also, notice how the Home button with the Windows symbol has evolved. As far as the hardware of the Nokia Lumia Evolution goes, we have here a 4.5 inch HD screen, 64 GB of internal memory and most likely a dual core CPU made by Qualcomm. Intel could also be part of this initiative, but I’m not sure they’ll be ready with a good enough CPU to use on a phone meant to sell millions of units.
AT the back I expect something like a 12MP camera with PureView technology, maybe some 4G LTE, NFC and the latest in Bluetooth and WiFi tech. This concept looks pretty realistic and it’s finally a break from all those Nokia N9 copycats… Do you like it? This concept was created by Deviantart user LokiBartleby.

Asha 305/306/311
05/07/2012 01:22 par slaytane
Nokia étoffe sa gamme Asha de mobiles sous interface Series 40 à petit prix et met en avant leur polyvalence.
Chez Nokia, il y a la gamme Lumia sous Windows Phone du côté des smartphones et la gamme Asha sous interface Series 40 pour les mobiles traditionnels. Cette seconde catégorie, inaugurée en octobre 2011, fait partie de la stratégie visant à connecter le prochain milliard d'utilisateurs en proposant de nombreux services.
Trois nouveaux modèles intègrent cette gamme qui compte une dizaine de modèles distribués dans plus de 130 pays et mettent l'accent sur les services et fonctionnalités, ainsi que sur la couleur, pour séduire une cible jeune amatrice de réseaux sociaux et de jeux mobiles.
Ils font notamment appel au navigateur Nokia 2.0 et son système de compression de données avant distribution sur les mobiles, perdant de réduire la consommation data et d'accélérer l'affichage des pages Web.
Il est possible de télécharger des applications ( Java ) sur ces terminaux et Nokia en profite pour souligner que le Nokia Store vient de passer la barre des 5 milliards de téléchargements, dont 42% du contenu téléchargé concerne des mobiles Nokia Asha et d'autres mobiles Nokia supportant Java, du fait notamment d'une bonne présence sur les marchés émergents.
Le Nokia Asha 311 embarque un affichage 3" 240 x 320 pixels tactile capacitif et polarisé pour une bonne lisibilité en extérieur, avec 100 Mo de mémoire interne utilisable et un port microSD acceptant jusqu'à 32 Go d'espace de stockage.
Il profite d'un processeur 1 GHz et d'un APN 3,2 megapixels au dos, et embarque la connectivité sans fil WiFi ainsi que la Radio FM. A bord, on trouve l'application Nokia Cartes et divers jeux pré-installés, dont 15 niveaux du jeu Angry Birds.
Côté autonomie, pour ce mobile 3G, on profitera de 7h20 en conversation et 29 jours en veille. Le Nokia Asha 311 est commercialisé au prix de 139 € TTC nu.
Les Nokia Asha 305 et 306 sont très proches en terme de design et de fonctionnalités. Le Nokia Asha 305 profite d'un double emplacement SIM avec système Easy Swap facilitant l'échange de carte SIM. Il possède lui aussi un affichage 3" tactile 320 x 240 pixels.
Au dos, on trouve un APN 2 megapixels et à bord le logiciel Nokia Maps. Ce modèle est dépourvu de connectivité sans fil WiFi mais dispose du Bluetooth et de la Radio FM. Ce téléphone GSM / EDGE bibande offre jusqu'à 14 heures d'autonomie en conversation et 22 jours en veille. Le Nokia Asha 305 est commercialisé au prix de 89 € TTC nu
Son cousin proche, le Nokia Asha 306 reprend les caractéristiques du Nokia Asha 305 mais il possède un seul emplacement SIM et dispose d'une connectivité sans fil WiFi, ce qui en fait un mobile WiFi à moins de 100 € puis qu'il est commercialisé au tarif de 95 € TTC nu.
Pour ces deux modèles, une offre de téléchargement valable sur 40 jeux Java de l'éditeur Electronic Arts est offerte aux acheteurs. Ces trois nouveaux modèles de la gamme Asha seront disponibles à partir du troisième trimestre 2012.
Note : contrairement à ce qu'écrivent ou disent 80% de nos confrères, les Nokia Asha ne sont PAS des smartphones. Ils s'en inspirent et en reprennent toujours plus de fonctionnalités ( et l'évolution de l'interface Series 40 a été pensée en ce sens ) mais ils ne sont pas comptabilisés comme tels.

Sur le marché du téléphone low cost, Nokia entend bien reprendre sa place de premier constructeur mondial. Le constructeur finlandais lance le Nokia 112 et le Nokia 113, deux téléphones mobiles d'entrée de gamme autour des 50 euros capables d'aller sur Internet.
En pleine conquête du marché des smartphones avec l'OS mobile de Microsoft, Windows Phone, Nokia n'en n'oublie par pour autant le marché des téléphones mobiles où il était, il y a peu, le constructeur numéro un.
Espérant reconquérir son marché de prédilection, le constructeur finlandais a annoncé la sortie prochaine de deux téléphones low cost : les Nokia 112 et Nokia 113. Pas d'écran tactile, ces deux téléphones gardent une forme dite candybar avec un écran de 1,8 pouce de diagonale, un clavier numérique et l'interface Séries 40. A la différence des téléphones d'entrée de gamme, ces deux modèles permettront à leurs utilisateurs d'accéder à Internet sur des sites adaptés, notamment ceux des réseaux sociaux comme Facebook et Twitter.
Côté technique, ces téléphones sont rudimentaires puisque l'appareil photo est doté d'un capteur de 0,3 megapixels et qu'ils ne sont pas compatibles 3G. En revanche, le Nokia 112 sera doté d'un logement pour deux cartes SIM et de la technologie EasySwap qui permet de basculer d'une carte à l'autre sans éteindre le mobile. Quant au 113 bi-bande, il bénéficie d'un batterie de 800 mAh lui procurant une autonomie de 7h50.
Ces deux mobiles visent à l'évidence les jeunes adolescents dont les parents ne veulent pas qu'ils se promènent avec un smartphone à 600 euros. D'ailleurs, Nokia a prévu d'intégrer 40 jeux EA Games d'une valeur de 75 euros. Le Nokia 112 devrait être commercialisé autour de 49 euros et le Nokia 113 autour de 55 euros sans subvention.

Tviti 9210

We have seen quite a bunch of Nokia tablets here in concept phase, but one more couldn’t hurt. Meet the Nokia Tiviti 9210, a Windows 8 slate with some very appealing specifications. Andy Weir of Neowin imagined this device and the result were the pictures below. This slate runs Windows 8 RT on top of a dual core Snapdragon S4 processor at 1.5 GHz.
This is a 10.1 inch tablet with a Super IPS+ LCD ClearBlack display with a 1920 x 1200 pixel resolution and Gorilla Glass 2 protection. It weighs 575 grams and features 1GB of SDRAM, 32/64GB of storage, a 7700 mAh battery with 12 hours of functioning time and an 8 megapixel camera at the back. The camera has a 2.2 aperture, 28mm focal length and supports full HD video capture at 30 fps with stereo audio capture. The Nokia Windows 8 tablet also has a 2MP front camera, accelerometer, Glonass, AGPS, gyroscope and proximity sensor.
On the connectivity side, it offers WiFi, Bluetooth 4.0, 4G LTE, DLNA, microUSB and a 3.5mm audio jack. There’s even pricing envisioned here, so for example you’ll pay $499 for the 32 GB WiFi + 4G version. The 64GB one will cost $629 and these are pretty reasonable price tags. Also know that the product measures 8.8mm in thickness, so only a bit thicker than the Transformer Prime. Would you buy this tablet instead of the iPad 3?
