Panasonic Eluga U Hands On and Photo Gallery

Posted: 30 Jul 2014 09:00 PM PDT

Panasonic today introduced its Eluga range of smartphones in India but these are not the devices that we've often lusted over. The Eluga U is a new handset designed straight up for India and as such drops many of the features that made the Eluga series unique. But keeping all preconceived notions aside, we spent some time with the new handset. Here's what we think about it. Panasonic Eluga U specifications 5-inch (1280 x 720 pixels) HD IPS OGS display with Corning Gorilla Glass 3 protection 1.2 GHz quad-core Snapdragon 400 processor with Adreno 305 GPU Android 4.4 (KitKat) Dual SIM 13MP rear camera with LED Flash, 1080p video recording 2MP front-facing camera 7.95 mm thick and weighs 141 grams 3.5mm audio jack, FM Radio with RDS 2GB RAM, 16GB internal memory, 32GB expandable memory with MicroSD 3G HSPA+, WiFi 802.11 b/g/n, Bluetooth 4.0, GPS 2500 mAh battery Panasonic has talked a fair bit about the design of the handset and2 on first glance, it certainly looks above average. We won't go as far as calling it the best looking device in the category nor is it the most unique but the overall feel of the hardware both in terms of design and quality is decent. Three capacitive buttons are what you find below the 5 ...

LTE version of the Xiaomi Redmi Note glimpsed in spy shots

Posted: 30 Jul 2014 07:01 PM PDT

We have spoken about a 4G LTE variant of the Xiaomi Redmi Note that was believed to be in the works previously, but today was the first time that we got to have a look at the very device. Ditching the octa-core MediaTek processor for a better-compatible, quad-core Qualcomm Snapdragon 400 MSM8928, the 4G LTE version of the Redmi Note looks more or less identical to the initial version. The Redmi (Hongmi) got similar treatment from Xiaomi when it was updated to a Snapdragon 400 SoC from the MT6582 earlier this year. The Xiaomi Mi 4 is the company's first ever LTE phone, and the Redmi Note might soon join the league if you go by the leaks. It's expected to feature the same 5.5-inch 720p display, 2GB RAM (and maybe a 1GB RAM variant), a 13 mega-pixel main camera and Android v4.2 Jelly Bean. Recommended: Xiaomi Mi Power Bank 10,400mAh Unboxing Following Apple's strategy, Xiaomi are known to keep pricing constant while the hardware gets a bump. If that does happen, the LTE Redmi Note should cost about $130 in the mainland of China. [gallery columns="2" ids="110709,110708,110707,110706"] Source | Via

Motorola Moto G gets a Rs 2000 price cut for a limited time

Posted: 30 Jul 2014 01:23 PM PDT

Motorola's Moto G, the most successful Moto phone in India just turned into an even better deal. Flipkart, Motorola's exclusive sales partner for India, just announced that the Moto G will now be available for a starting price of 10,499 INR for the 8GB variant. On the other hand, the 16GB variant will cost 11,999 INR, getting an equal price cut. However, there's a catch; the discounted price will apply only to limited stocks of the device, which means it probably won't stay long! Specifications 4.5-inch 1280 x 720p display 1.2GHz quad-core Snapdragon 400 SoC 1GB RAM 8GB/16GB on-board ROM, non expandable 5 mega-pixel rear camera 1.3 mega-pixel front facing camera 2070mAh battery Android v4.4 KitKat The 12-15K INR price range recently got a new guest in the form of the Xiaomi Mi 3, a smartphone that many buyers have preferred over the Moto G. However, it has proven tough to get hold of. Motorola would hope to buy back the share of buyers it lost to Xiaomi and other similarly priced phone with this price cut. What platys in Motorola's favour is the fact that the Moto G isn't nearly as evasive a device as the Mi 3 (for buyers). You can head over to Flipkart to avail the Moto G at the ...

Xiaomi responds to privacy concerns: “MIUI does not secretly upload photos & messages”

Posted: 30 Jul 2014 10:55 AM PDT

Thanks to whistle-blowers like Edward Snowden, privacy has become a public topic of discussion these days, which is always a good thing. On that note, earlier today, an article from ocworkbench claimed that Xiaomi's Redmi Note smartphone is uploading data to Chinese servers, without explicit user permission. Considering Xiaomi is from China, a country which has been accused of spying on civilians in the past, the issue made its way to mainstream internet thanks to the virality of social media. But it was just one part of a story. We had reached out to Xiaomi to understand what the other side of the story is like, and they finally have an answer. Hugo Barra, the company's public face for its International operations, has taken to social networks, to explain how the company is, in fact, not invading user privacy. Lets examine both the sides of the story first. Here's the claim - A Hong Kong discussion group IMA Mobile user Kenny Li discovered that his RedMi Note has been connecting to an IP address in China and transferring data back to the server when he is operating in Wi-Fi mode. When he is on 3G, it is just a handshake (low data ...
