| Fresh Nokia Windows Phone 8 Handset Gets Pictured; Is This the Arrow? Posted: 30 Aug 2012 03:18 AM PDT
Nokia is preparing a big event for September 5th, when together with Microsoft they’ll launch a new series of Lumia handsets, with Windows Phone 8 on board. The past weeks have been filled with leaks related to that debut and now we get one more, courtesy of the image below, that seems to portray a new Nokia Lumia model.
The pic is all we have, no other photos or specs, so we can only speculate on it. For one thing, it’s weird to see a handset, a new one in yellow, since that’s the kind of color you launch a phone with when it’s already been on the market for months. Then again, if it’s a youthful follow up to the Lumia 710, it would fit the happy colour. The case looks plasticky and you can notice the vertical camera and flash arrangement reminding me of the Lumia 800. This phone is supposed to have a 4.3 inch screen, so it may be related to the panel we saw last week leaked on the web. Its curved edges lead me to believe it’s a lower end plasticky model, in the vein of the Lumia 610 or 710 models. We’ll know more about it next week, on September 5th when I expect Nokia to surprise us, maybe with a WP8 Pureview phone as well. Related posts:

| HTC Desire X is Now Official, Even Without IFA 2012 Event Posted: 30 Aug 2012 02:50 AM PDT
HTC seems to be keeping a low profile at IFA 2012, especially since they didn’t have an official event to debut their brand new HTC Desire X handset. Now the model that has a leaked a lot over the past days is very much official, sporting a 4 inch display.
This handset fits in the midrange segment and it was previously known as HTC Proto when it leaked online. It runs on Android 4.0 ICS and is pretty similar to the dual SIM Desire V. This time it’s a single SIM phone we’re talking about, that packs a 4 inch LCD display with 480 x 800 pixel resolution. HTC also included here a Qualcomm Snapdragon S4 dual core processor at 1 GHz. This is not one of the new generation chips however, but rather a Cortex A5 unit created using the 45 nm technology. This chip is called S4 Play and is created specifically for a more midrange experience. Desire X also comes with a 5 megapixel camera with backside illuminated sensor and HTC’s own technology for imaging called ImageChip. It also has 480p video recording, so no 720p here. We get Beats Audio and sadly there’s no price for this model, but we do know that it will be released in September in Europe, Africa and Asia.
