HTC launches Windows Phone 8X and 8S - Mobile

Right now, Microsoft is investing hard on the mobile industry. In technology IFA 2012 Samsung showed off its new Windows Phone 8-model Samsung Ativ. Somewhat later presented the Nokia Lumia his models 920 and Lumia 820.

Now is the turn of HTC. But here are the conditions a little annorluda. Windows Phone 8 phones the company unveiled Wednesday is namely the first signature models from Microsoft.

Earlier in the day got Mobil.se opportunity to look at the two devices.

The largest of the models will be Windows Phone 8X by HTC. This unit is adorned with a Super LCD 2 screen measuring 4.3 inches. The resolution is at 1280 x 720, which means a pixel density of 341 pixels per inch.

phone is equipped with second generation Gorilla Glass to withstand heavy applications. The viewing angle was good, but because we were not given the opportunity to test the phone in more detail is difficult to make a definitive statement. The same applies to software. We were simply not see enough to be able to determine how Windows Phone 8X (and Windows Phone 8) stands out in comparison to its competitors.

phone measures 132.35 x 66.2 x 10.12mm and weighs 130 grams and will be available in several colors: California Blue, Graphite Black, Flame Red, and Limelight Yellow. However, this is uncertain whether Windows Phone 8X will be available in all these colors in Sweden. Having known on Windows Phone 8X by HTC (which will henceforth be called Windows Phone 8X in the text), we found that it feels unusually light in the hand, yet provides a well constructed and solid impression. The body consists of a unibody shell is constructed of polycarbonate. The material is slightly dull and does not feel shiny in the same way as the body for the HTC One X consists in. You have no way to remove the back cover on Windows Phone 8X, and therefore can not replace the battery yourself.

Windows Phone 8X is designed with a so-called pillow design. This means that the phone has a curved shape with thinner sides and a thicker base. This design allows the phone has a good grip.

device runs on Windows Phone 8 operating system. During polycarbonate shell spins a dual core Qualcomm S4 processor with a clock speed of 1.5 GHz. The phone has a working memory of 1GB, and the storage memory of 16GB. The device lacks a microSD card, but according to HTC, Microsoft will offer cloud storage for those who need additional storage space.

Windows Phone 8X is equipped with a main camera of 8MP (f/2.0, autofocus, LED flash, and BSI sensor), and a dedicated camera button. On the phone we find the same sort of Image Chip today’s top model HTC One X. However, it lacks Windows Phone 8X features such as Photo Burst. Besides capable phone also record moving images in 1080p resolution and stereo sound.

froten of the device is a video call camera of 2.1 MP. Interestingly, the camera can take pictures at 88 degree angle, which should make it easier to get even with the surroundings of the person holding the phone to take a photo or video call.

phone has almost all the connectivity you could want: Bluetooth 2.1 + EDR, Wi-Fi a / b / g / n, micro-USB 2.0 – and NFC. Like many other models from HTC Windows Phone 8X equipped with Beats Audio. In order to optimize your audio experience from the built in speakers have used a micro-drill to create each individual sound holes in the speaker part.

In terms of battery life, Windows Phone 8X equipped with a battery of 1,800 MAh. The phone is expected to be dragged in Sweden in late October, but at present there is no suggested retail price.

Turning instead looking towards Windows Phone 8S by HTC , we find a slightly smaller (dimensions: 120, 5 x 63, 10,28 mm) and less expensive piece. The screen measures 4 inches and is of type super LCD. Although this model has been chosen to produce the screen in Gorilla Glass glass. The phone will be available in several different colors. A utmärkade design feature is that the bottom part has a different color than the rest of the phone.

Windows Phone 8S by HTC ( which will henceforth be called Windows Phone 8S in the text) is driven by a dubbelkärning Qualcomm Snapdragon S4 processor (1GHz) with a RAM of 512MB. Furthermore, the device has a storage memory of 4GB, but unlike Windows Phone 8X, this model is also space for a microSD card. The device has a battery with a capacity of 1,700 MAh, but then we have not been able to test Windows Phone 8S it is difficult to estimate how clear a day of normal use of surf, music, movies, and more.

On the back we find a main camera of 5MP (f/2.0, autofocus and LED flash), which can also be used to record moving images in 720p resolution. Just like big brother 8X Windows Phone 8S a dedicated photo button. However, there is no video call camera on the front.

Even cheaper Windows Phone 8S have it in HTC contexts renowned Beats Audio logo on the back. However, not the headphones that come with the phone turned Beats-enabled.

Windows Phone 8S will be released in November. Prices are expected from HTC soon.

    Android 4.4 KitKat Release Date Nears: HTC Delivers OS Code To Google For ... - International Business Times

    The Android 4.4 update KitKat has Begun to slowly trickle out, having hit the 2012 and 2013 Nexus 7 and Nexus 10 tablets EARLIER this week. Now the new operating system is soon expected to roll out on the Google Play Edition HTC One.

    HTC has made a major effort to be transparent In recent months and has employed social media to keep fans and customers up to date with various news abouttheir products. HTC took to Twitter Friday to announce it had completed its work on the Android 4.4 KitKat code for the Google Play Edition HTC One and delivered the code to Google. According To HTC, it is now up to Google to DETERMINE When The Android 4.4 KitKat update will roll out on the Google Play Edition HTC One.

    Friday was When many were expecting the Google Play Edition HTC One to update to Android 4.4. Shortly after the release systems, HTC President Jason Mackenzie Announced the Google Play Edition HTC One would update within 15 days, but as of Saturday the device remains without an update. Some note that HTC has in essence completed its task of pushing the Android 4.4 update out (to Google) within 15 days and has now put the responsibility back onto Google to push the update out onto devices.

    HTC’s announcement overpriced sheds some light on the Further Google Play Edition update process. Notably When The Google Play Editions HTC One and Samsung Galaxy S4 were released in June, Google said the devices’ respectively OEMs would be in charge of rolling out new Android versions. Now It appears the updates are actually pushed by Google, after manufacturers fit the system’s code to Their devices. This would account for the Google Play Edition devices having not updated at the same time as the Google Nexus branded devices in the past.

    However, the release of Android 4.4 KitKat has been different from Android releases in the past. Many Google fire devices Such as the Nexus 4 smartphone and the 3G Nexus 7 tablet have yet to update to Android 4.4 for Reasons Currently unknown. The best hypothesis Is that Google wanted the Nexus 5 to run Android 4.4 Exclusively for a while before updating other devices. Even devices thathave alreadycreated updated paint some Android 4.4 features seen on the Nexus 5, including the Google Experience Launcher with its transparent status and navigation bars, and its voice-activated Google Now and Google Search implementation. Even with all of the mystery surrounding the Android 4.4 updates for Google devices, it remains unlikely That the Nexus 5 or the Google Play Edition devices will feature the Google Experience Launcher upon update.

    While we have some insight to the Google Play Edition HTC One, little is known about the Google Play Edition Samsung Galaxy S4 and its Android 4.4 update progress. We can Assume that since both Google Play Edition devices updated to Android 4.3 Jelly Bean at the sametime That They willalso update to Android 4.4 KitKat at the sametime, but with no word from Samsung this is not certainkind. It would make sense overpriced for both devices to update at the same time if it is in fact Google Pushing Out Their updates and note Their respectively manufacturers.

    After Android 4.3 was unveiled in July and subsequently be updated onto older Nexus devices, it took just nine days for the Google Play Edition devices receive the update. And with Several Nexus devices still awaiting Their Android 4.4 updates, the Google Play Editions May have to wait even longer to get a taste of KitKat, and HTC has made surethat the ball is now in Google’s court.

  • Leak: Is this HTC's next top model? - Mobile

    pictures show what looks like metal shell an HTC phone that according to the informant should have codenamed M8. HTC One had codenamed M7 before it was launched.

    shell is a lot like the HTC One, but has rounded sides. There is also an opening above the hole for the camera lens, which could be a fingerprint reader, but in that case a different model than the one in the HTC One Max. Another suggestion is that it would be a second camera, but what function it would fill is unknown.

    The phone will reportedly also be equipped with HTC’s Sense interface in the new version, 6.0, but what it would mean in practice, we still know nothing about.
