The HTC EVO 3D and its chanting followers is something we rarely see in the smartphone industry, back when it launched it had a very quick rise to fame. I mean it had that huge 4.3″ screen that made all the other phones around look tiny, it had 4G and it was fast. I can see why everyone fell in love with the original EVO and why its still selling like hot cakes, it is a sweet phone. Will the new HTC EVO 3D live up to the same fame — can it be everything and more? Read on to find out.

HTC Evo 3D - Design & Build:

First and foremost, the EVO 3D is a gorgeous phone. Like the EVO 4G, the EVO 3D is black with blood-red detailing. Keeping it in the family, the EVO View Android tablet, also announced today, has the same color scheme. The EVO 3D smartphone feels solid, but not bulky in the least. It has a nice, textured rubber backing and a slimmer shape that feels good in hand.

This is a developers-only device, not available commercially.

The Nokia N950 is announced simultaneously with the Nokia N9. Like the N950 runs on the N9 MeeGo operating system, but unlike the N9, the N950 is not intended for the consumer. The N950 is intended only as a model for developer MeeGo developers. If your device when in one way or another to get home, you have to rely on beta software defects and with no guarantees.

Nokia N950 - Design:

The Nokia N950 is the latest Nokia handset working on MeeGo platform and flaunting a touch bar shape. The handset is a successor of Nokia N900 and has been announced by Nokia when a Windows phone was expected to be launched by them. It is being popularized that this handset is going to have an elegant hardware, 1GHz processor, great user-interface and tempting design. With a 4 inches wide colour full capacitive touch-screen display, one may imagine how cool this handset will look. The exact figure of its weight, dimensions and screen resolution are not out and we eagerly wait for those things to have a deeper knowledge of this handsome handset. Interestingly, the phone can be fetched in Silver and Black colours.

Olympus PEN E-PL3: Design & Build

For a system camera with interchangeable lenses that delivers SLR quality, the Olympus PEN E-PL3 is remarkably small and chic, with a premium, brushed aluminium finish. Stunning pictures from a cool camera that’s as easy to use as a point-and-shoot? Absolutely. That’s what the Olympus E-PL3 is all about.

The Nokia X1-01 is a very low end dual SIM phone offered at a really low price. It has all the features that you would look in such a phone. Also, there is the brand name of Nokia so you can eb assured that of the quality. Its strengths include memory, music, long battery life and good design.

Nokia X1-01: Design & Build

There is nothing special about the design; it is quite similar to other basic phones. This handset is offered in a variety of different colour options of blue, red, grey, orange, and white. It is 112.2 mm long, 16 mm thick and 47.3 mm broad. The weight of the phone is 91.1 grams which isn’t too heavy.

Sony SLT-A35 vs Sony SLT-A55 vs Sony SLT-A33, Features Comparison:

HTC has taken a different approach to its first tablet. Like the Blackberry Playbook, the screen is seven inches, this instantly makes it a far more portable option and at just 122 mm wide, it can easily fit into a pocket. This form factor also enables you to hold it comfortably using one hand.

Construction follows the same unibody design as HTC’s handset range, but this time with white accents. HTC uses a proprietary port in the base for charging and unlike Honeycomb tablets it charges over USB.

HTC Flyer - Android:

When HTC announced that the Flyer would be running Android 2.3.3, we were surprised – surely it makes sense to run the latest tablet optimised version of Google’s UI? So although it looks like a big smartphone, it doesn’t feel like a smartphone to use - unlike the first Samsung Galaxy Tab.

It is now confirmed that the new walkman phone will be called Sony Ericsson W8 and it will be the first Walkman phone to run with Android™ sensibilities. The music lovers will definitely appreciate the fact that Sony Ericsson is reviving its Walkman range of phones, which revolutionised the experience of mobile music.

Though the device is touted as Android™ Walkman phone, it is better not to expect any revolutionary additions in terms of technology. It bears a lot of similarity with XPERIA X8, but comes with a vibrant dose of colours such as red, orange and azure.

The basic features of the phone include 600MHz processor that powers the backdated Android™ OS, which is embellished with Timecape. There is a 3.2 MP camera, but no flash. It seems that the device has solely concentrated on its music aspects. Therefore, it is expected that the handset will load excellent speakers.

The long-rumoured HTC Pyramid has finally been unmasked as the HTC Sensation, and takes over from the Desire HD as the company's Android flagship. We managed to get some hands-on time with the dual-core beast, to see if it lives up to our high expectations.

HTC Sensation: Design & Builds

From the front it follows the same unimaginative build of other dual-core Android handsets including the Motorola Atrix and LG Optimus 2X. But turn it over and it’s classic HTC, this time with striking three-tone aluminium back. It feels incredibly well built and solid, certainly what you’d expect from HTC and of a premium product. The metal is a world away from the cheap plastic back of the Samsung Galaxy S2.
