In a few hours from now, HTC will unveil another 4G LTE smartphone with integrated Beats Audio technology at a public event on Thursday, November 3rd, 2011 in New York. The Taiwanese smartphone manufacturer hasn’t been too quiet about their new product, which is known as the HTC Rezound and will be operated on the Verizon network. Even Verizon Wireless stores are already advertising the new device.

Analysts expect the Rezound, which is also known as the HTC Vigor, to feature a 4.3-inch 720pHD touch screen, an 8 MP camera and a 1.5GHz dual-core processor. The high-end specs notwithstanding, it’s actually the integrated Beats Audio technology that makes the handset a true winner. HTC gained rights to the new audio technology when Dr. Dre’s Beats Electronics was acquired. And there are some gadgets already on the market that utilize the technology.

As it is, the sound of the audio system becomes instantly louder with a deeper bass, whenever Beats Audio is enabled. But it’s not clear at this time if this feature enhances the music quality better than audio on other handsets. That said, we’re expecting HTC to highlight this point on Thursday in New York, when it unveils the Rezound smartphone to the world.

The most common issues of the Apple’s iPhone 4S smartphone

Posted by devzeal On October - 20 - 2011

Consumers flocked in large numbers to buy the latest iPhone when it was released, after it got impressive reviews, but Apple’s smartphones are far from being perfect. In less than a week after some customers bought the first set of the iPhone 4S, dissatisfied users started complaining. Let’s take a glance at some of the issues and how to rectify them.

Sprint is slow:
Even though the wireless telecommunications network offers unlimited data, users are increasingly becoming frustrated, because it barely functions. Dissatisfied Sprint’s customers begrudge on the company’s forum that the service is too slow to be useful. Strangely enough, there’s no easy fix!

Siri doesn’t work all the time:
Siri is undoubtedly the most entertaining feature in the iPhone 4S, but sometimes connection is difficult to achieve. Some users even complain that the app doesn’t work at all on their Sprint’s 32GB Black iPhone 4S devices. Analysts suggest that the servers which handle the dictation and Siri backend might be overloaded. To fix this issue, turn off Siri, reset your network settings and turn it back on.

Poor screen quality:
A fresh new smartphone shouldn’t have a subpar screen quality, and yet, new iPhone owners are complaining about the same thing. It’s difficult to understand why the older iPhone 4 has a brighter screen.

With that said, it might be that the iPhone 4S has just been released and will get better over time. Well, who knows – we all have to wait and see!

Chinese police busts fake iPhone ring

Posted by devzeal On September - 29 - 2011

A Chinese local newspaper reported on Thursday that police in Shanghai, working on a tip-off, busted five individuals who were creating and selling fake models of the Apple’s iPhone. According to Shanghai Daily, the arrested fellows were a part of an organized crime group that purchased the smartphone’s spare parts from an outlet in Guangdong, southern China and assembled them in clandestine apartments in Shanghai. During the raid, police found approximately 200 fake iPhone devices on the scene.

We learned from our trusted source that when some genuine components are used, the cost of producing a fake iPhone is around 2,000 yuan (approximately $313). The makers often sell these fake devices on unauthorized markets via the Internet and brick-and-mortar stores for around 4,000 yuan. That’s a huge gain, as they sell the pirated devices only a few hundred yuan cheaper than the original iPhone.

Manufacturing fake copies of Apple’s mobile devices is a business that thrives in mainland China, and the Government is not doing enough to curb the piracy. Typically, fake iPhones have almost the same functionality as the genuine ones, but the battery life is shorter and often come with countless bugs. One police officer said that it is extremely difficult for consumers to differentiate between genuine and fake iPhones.

Like we all know, the ailing co-founder of Apple, Steve Jobs, announced his early retirement last month as the company’s CEO, due to health reasons, and was effectively replaced by the 50-year old Tim Cook. After several years of being the visionary behind the Cupertino, California-based gadget-maker that produces the Macintosh computer, iPad, iPhone and iPod, Jobs stepped down at the age of 56 on August 24th.

According to the Dow Jones-owned AllThingsD, the iPhone 5 would be available in retail outlets within a few weeks after the upcoming announcement.

Enormous pressure will be on Cook to deliver an outstanding performance, since this is his first time – it was Jobs who presided over all the previous product launches.Well, who knows if Jobs will be healthy enough to make at least a brief appearance?

How to choose the right desktop PC that will best serve your needs

Posted by devzeal On September - 22 - 2011

Today, almost every desktop computer offers a wealth of options: You can opt for a computer with fixed hardware and software configurations, or you can choose to customize your PC, if you’re an advanced user. Customizing a system almost always entails being confronted with a dizzying plethora of choices from a configure-to-purchase vendor. When you choose the latter option, you’re not restricted to use only the components the vendor pre-installed for the model.

Desktop Computer

Desktop PC

There are three major categories of desktop PCs, namely, compact PCs, classic tower PCs (subdivided into high-performance, mainstream and budget categories), and all-in-one PCs. Each category has its strengths and weaknesses, depending on what you use it for.

When presented with an array of varied hardware and software options, often differentiated by hard-to-decipher naming conventions, we recommend you narrow your choice by considering the tasks you intend to use the new desktop to perform. If you’re a budget-minded photographer who needs a fast system for editing high-resolution pictures, then go for one with discrete graphics card and extra memory RAM.

If you have a large media collection and want a cost-effective, compact way to connect it to your HDTV, your best option would be a compact desktop PC configured with an eye for media sharing and playback.
