Xiaomi Redmi 1S | Motorola Moto E | Asus Zenfone 4: Top budget smartphones' Face-off


Earlier in the week, Xiaomi announced to release the much-awaited budget smartphone Redmi 1S in India on 2 September.

Considering the Redmi 1S' feature-rich specifications and its dirt-cheap price-tag, the Xiaomi phone in all probability will stir up a huge storm in the Indian budget smartphone just like its sibling Mi3 did in the mid-range segment.

Redmi 1S will give a stiff competition to two popular MNC brands Motorola Moto E and the newly introduced Asus Zenfone 4.

All the three handsets are worth more than their price compared to other devices in the market, considering that they get the latest OS updates, water-proof display and other value-added features, which you don't normally find in an entry-level smartphone.

This is an exciting time in the Indian smartphone market, where all brands (both MNCs and domestic) are flooding market with feature-rich devices. Indian consumers will be spoilt for choices to buy smartphone this holiday season.

Here is a brief description of the key specifications of the three popular smartphones - Xiaomi Redmi 1S, Motorola Moto E and Asus Zenfone 4.

Display and Design:

First up, Xiaomi Redmi 1S; It sports a candy bar rectangular design with curved corners and flaunts a 4.7-inch HD screen with pixel density of 312 ppi, highest in its class (entry-level smartphones).

On the other hand, Motorola Moto E is no less of a competitor; it flaunts a 4.3-inch qHD (960x540p) screen with Corning Gorilla Glass 3 scratch-resistant shield and has a pixel density of 256 ppi. It also boasts of splash-resistant screen/body enabling users to take/answer calls even in rain. No other smartphone under this price-range offers this feature.

Asus Zenfone 4 sports a 4.5-inch FWVGA (480x854p) resolution screen having Gorilla Glass 3 shield and pixel density of 218 ppi.

Processor, Storage and RAM:

In this aspect, Xiaomi Redmi 1S once again, comes on top, thanks to Qualcomm's faster 1.6GHz Snapdragon 400 series CPU. It is aptly backed by 1GB RAM and 8GB inbuilt memory (expandable up to 6GB).

Motorola phone too houses a Qualcomm Snapdragon 400 series processor, but the CPU consists of just two cores with maximum clock-rate is limited to just 1.2GHz. It comes packed with 1GB RAM and 4GB inbuilt memory (expandable up to 32GB).

Asus Zenfone 4 too ships with similar 1.2GHz dual-core processor, but it is made by Intel Corp. The company compensates this short coming with the sumptuous physical memory - 1GB RAM and 8GB storage space (expandable up to 64GB)

[Note: More the cores in the CPU, more smoothly the smartphone works]

Mobile Operating System:

In this aspect, all three phones almost stand even as they run on the ubiquitous Android platform, but Moto E owners will have slight advantage over the two competitors thanks to near stock Android OS. It also runs on the latest v4.4.4 KitKat OS.

On the other hand, Xiaomi Mi3 ships with v4.3 Jelly Bean with custom MIUI, whereas the Asus Zenfone is powered by Android 4.4.2 KitKat OS.

Camera:

Specification wise, Asus Zenfone 4 (A450CG) comes on top. It boasts 8.0-megapixel camera on the rear side and a 0.3-megapixel snapper on the front. To enhance photography experience, company has incorporated proprietary PixelMaster camera technology with features including Selfie Mode and Depth of Field Mode, Low Light Mode and Time Rewind.

Xiaomi too ships with 8.0-megapixe camera and a 1.3-megapixel front camera.

On the other hand, Motorola loses this battle as it comes with less superior 5.0-megapixel camera with no LED flash and neither a front-camera.

[Note: More mega-pixel count in the camera does not guarantee a good quality photograph. It all depends on the type of the lens, size and aperture.]

Price:

Price is one of the most important aspects of this comparison article as it plays a crucial role in the minds of the price-sensitive middle class and the aspiring youth population, which form the biggest chunk of the India's demography.

When Motorola Moto E set foot in India for ₹6,999, couple of months ago, it started a price-war among domestic and MNC brands and now Xiaomi has taken a notch up (read down), by keeping a ridiculous price-tag of ₹5,999 for the feature-rich Redmi 1S.

Asus Zenfone 4 (A450CG) is priced ₹6,999, if interested, consumers can also go for A400CG model, which costs ₹5,999. Only difference between two is their display size and camera specifications. 

Verdict:

All in all, the Xiaomi seems to weigh in better than its two counterparts, mainly from a hardware point of view, its on-board memory, battery power, camera, PPI and screen resolution. The OS however, may be a deciding factor for many users.

Thanks,

Nokia X, Nokia X+ and Nokia XL dual-SIM Android-based smartphones launched

Nokia has announced its first-ever smartphones based on the Android Open Source Project (AOSP), that can run Android apps and are powered by Microsoft and Nokia services.

Nokia X and Nokia X+ are dual-SIM phones that come with 4-inch 480x800 displays and are powered by 1GHz dual-core Qualcomm Snapdragon S4 processor. Both have identical 4GB internal storage, with expandable support up to 32GB via microSD card, and are powered by a 1500mAh battery. While the Nokia X comes with 512MB RAM, the Nokia X+ comes with 768MB RAM. Both phones have a 3-megapixel rear camera, but no front shooter. They are powered by a 1500mAh battery.

Nokia XL comes with a 5-inch 480x800 display, a 5-megapixel camera, a 720p front camera, 768MB RAM and a 2000mAh battery, while sharing other specifications with its younger siblings.

All three phones come with 3G support and take Micro-SIMs instead of regular ones.

The Nokia X will go on sale immediately, starting at EUR 89 (approximately Rs. 7,500 not including duties and taxes) in Asia-Pacific, Europe, India, Latin America, the Middle East and Africa. The Nokia X+ and Nokia XL are expected to roll out in these markets starting early second quarter, priced at EUR 99 (approximately Rs. 8,400 not including duties and taxes) and EUR 109 (approximately Rs. 9,300 not including duties and taxes), respectively.

The highlight of the three devices of course is the highly customised version of Android, with its Metro-inspired UI and access to Nokia's own store. While there's no access to Google's Play Store, users can side-load Android apps from any third-party source. Nokia has used AOSP corresponding to Android 4.1 Jelly Bean as the baseline for its operating system.

All devices come with free access to Here Maps, with offline maps and integrated turn-by-turn navigation, and Nokia MixRadio for free music streaming and downloadable playlists. All devices are also pre-loaded with a variety of third-party apps and games.

Nokia X, Nokia X+ and Nokia XL come with free cloud storage from Microsoft's OneDrive (earlier called SkyDrive). With the purchase of any Nokia X family smartphone in select markets, people will get one month of Skype's Unlimited World Subscription for a limited time.

Both the Nokia X and Nokia X+ will be available in bright green, bright red, cyan, yellow, black and white. The Nokia XL will be available in bright green, orange, cyan, yellow, black and white. Colour availability may vary across regions.

Panasonic T31 Rs. 7,450/- a Budget friendly choice..





Panasonic T31 is an entry-level android smartphone from Panasonic and is priced at INR 7450 in the local market. We recently reviewed the Panasonic T11 and Panasonic P11 both of which are targeted towards the mid-range price segment and yes, they compete well in their respective segments.


In some cases they even beat the smartphones of established giants and in the other they go hand in hand with their competitors.
Panasonic T31
The T31 doesn’t come with anything special but it has everything that you’ll expect in a sub INR 8k smartphone. It faces tough competition from Samsung Galaxy Trend, Lava Iris 458Q and Canvas Fun A76.
User Interface: More than usable
It runs on android Jelly Bean v4.2.2 along with some customizations from Panasonic. The unlocking options can be chosen from among Slide, Face unlock, Pattern, PIN and Password.


The UI is smooth to operate but it has some hiccups. One of them is that the two finger swipe doesn’t always brings up the settings toggles when done hurriedly.
settings toggles
In call options
landscape mode
portrait mode


Display: Average
Its 4 inch TFT LCD display supports a resolution of 480×800 pixels which means a pixel density of 233 ppi. The colors looks okay and the auto brightness function will make the display legible in the Sunlight.
The display also loses out on contrast and colors when viewed from an extreme angle.
Typing: Could have been better
Typing in the portrait mode is okay but it disappoints in the landscape mode. The keys are placed very close to each other leading to typos.
The T31 doesn’t have any gesture input of any kind which is badly needed in sub-5 inch displays.
Browsing: Not up to the mark
The browsing on this phone is not a treat either. The scrolling is smooth but it takes some time to render the photos on a web page. The double-tap to zoom works fine and the pinch to zoom takes some time before it actually zooms in.
The stock browser also doesn’t have incognito mode but that’s okay since it comes with Google Chrome pre-installed.
Extra Features
This might not be much to talk about but the Panasonic T31 does come with gesture support. It supports gestures like Turn over to mute, Turn over to activate and Shake to switch music.
Rating: 3.5/5

LG to launch Its Curved Smartphone-G Flex..!




          LG has unveiled its curved-screen smartphone G Flex in India, the first curved handset to be launched in the country.G Flex has a big 6-inch display that curves from the top to bottom, making it easier to hold and offer a better video viewing experience. It also has a self-healing rear panel, world's first.Both the features are unique in the Indian smartphone market, and certainly exciting. We spent some time with the device at the launch event to see whether the hoopla is justified. Here are our first impressions of LG G Flex curved smartphone:Design and displayLG has got it right with the design of the G Flex. The new smartphone fits very snugly into the palm, much better than the conventionally designed handsets. It also feels more ergonomous when held against the ear to make calls.Even while watching videos on G Flex, the angles seem perfect and we never felt that the videos lost colour at any angle. This is because the screen is at an equal distance from the eyes at all points, thus the viewing angle remains the same.Let's talk about the curve of the phone.
             The G Flex screen has a subtle curve and until you see it at close range, you probably may mistake for some other smartphone. However, this subtle curve also allows the phone to be slightly flexible. By applying enough force, you can bend the screen just a little. This is because the touchscreen of G Flex is made of plastic, not glass like other smartphones.Moreover, the display is topped with a thin layer of plastic that allows the front panel to bend to a small extent. Though this is not game-changing, it is still a start and whets our appetite for future technologies. The trade-off? No Gorilla Glass protection to the screen.The display of LG G Flex has HD (720p) resolution and measures 6-inch diagonally. Though a 720p display seems outdated today, when 1080p screens rule the roost, we did not have any issues with the display quality. Though the pixels are not packed together as tightly, the viewing experience is still very good and much better than that of other phablets.Just like LG G2, the new G Flex has volume and lock keys on the back, just below the camera.Self-healing backNow this is something completely new! G Flex is the only gadget in the world to come with a self-healing back panel, which automatically fixes any minor scratches or scruffs that the rear casing suffers. According to LG, the back panel is coated with a molecular substrate that will heal scratches and minor cuts. It is also dependent on the temperature; in cooler climes, the healing is slower than in warmer areas.We also put some scratches on the back for some first-hand experience of this new technology. The minor scratches we were able to make were healed in minutes and the back panel was back to its glossy self again.If only we had screwdrivers or knives to test this feature fully. LG has said that this coating can only fix minor inflictions, and if the coating is pierced, the mark will not be healed.SoftwareLG G Flex comes with all the software bells and whistles that its older siblings offer, be it Knock On, multiple windows, three-finger swipe etc.

          However, unlike other LG smartphones, the new curved model has a much cleaner interface. Though LG's Optimus UI is still layered on top of Android 4.2, the animations and effects are slightly better than the ones in LG G2, G Pro etc. We will explore more preinstalled themes of the phone while doing a full review.Key specsThe key hardware specifications of LG G Flex are 2.2GHz quad-core Snapdragon 800 processor, 2GB RAM and 32GB internal storage. Connectivity options in the phone include 2G, 3G, 4G, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth 4.0, microUSB 3.0 and NFC. All the features look great, but we can discuss the overall performance only after a full review.CameraG Flex sports a 13MP rear camera on the back, just like LG G2. The photos we clicked at the launch event were pretty good, but did not match the G2's camera performance in terms of details. Apart from that, the G Flex camera reproduced accurate colours and even the low-light conditions of the launch venue, there was no noise.Our thoughtsLG G Flex is a very enticing prospect. Its USPs are two technologies that have never been seen before in the Indian market, curved screen and self-healing back. For anyone who seeks novelty in gadgets, it is a great option. However, its India launch is still some time away (Feb 2014) and only the tentative price (Rs 60,000-65,000) is known as of now. From our point of view, we like the device and are looking forward to get our hands on the device for a full review.

Long awaited Google Nexus 5 with KitKat 4.4 released..



The Nexus 5 with Android 4.4 KitKat carries on the recent tradition of top-tier specs and relatively budget prices from Google, and in this review, we're going to take a look at whether the device hangs with the best of them.




We've come to expect Nexus devices to be developer-only handsets that never reach the type of hype or adoption that the HTC One or Galaxy S4 would get. Google doesn't really advertise Nexus devices to the masses the way that Samsung or Apple does, and Nexus devices are generally not on par with other flagship handsets in terms of build quality and performance.
When the Nexus 4 launched in late 2012, the most enticing thing was its initial $300 price point. For an unlocked device with decent hardware, it seemed like a steal. But we soon learned that its shortcomings were often too much to bear.
Nexus 5 review
Now we're at the Nexus 5, a solid smartphone with a 2.3GHz Snapdragon 800 chipset and 2GB RAM. It has a 2,300mAh battery and a 5-inch 1080p display. It also features the latest version of Android - 4.4 KitKat.
Nexus 5 review
You'd think it would come with a hefty price tag, but for 16GB and 32GB versions, you're only looking at $349 and $399, respectively, in the U.S. That's unlocked.
If you're thinking it seems too good to be true, we can't blame you. What, if any, corners did LG and Google have to cut in order to bring the price down to affordable levels?
Let's skip the boring Nexus history lesson and dive right into what matters - the Nexus 5 itself.
Design


Nexus 5 review
In-hand feel and use

First, let's talk hardware design. The Nexus 5 features a 5-inch 1080p IPS display - that's 1920 x 1080, giving us 445 PPI. If you can pick out the pixels on this display, please donate your eyes to science.
The display itself is crisp, although its colors are less saturated than what you'd find on the HTC One or iPhone 5s. The Nexus 5's display doesn't get as bright as those devices, either, but it's not a big deal.
Nexus 5 review
If punchy colors and contrast is your thing, the Nexus 5 might only disappoint you if you consistently compare it to other devices. Otherwise, you won't notice it over time.
Being a 5-inch display device, the phone itself is pretty large, but not entirely unwieldy. It measures 5.43 x 2.72 x 0.34 inches. Because the bezel is so narrow, the device itself isn't pushed wider by its large display.
Nexus 5 review
And because LG opted for plastic here, rather than a glass front and back like the Nexus 4, it's not too heavy.
Above the display, there is a round earpiece, and it gets surprisingly loud given its size. To the left of that is the front-facing camera, and down below the display is an LED notifier. You don't see anything down there unless you have notifications, and the glowing light seems to come from nowhere. Magic.
Nexus 5 review
The base of the Nexus 5 has a microUSB port for charging and syncing, and two grills - one housing a speaker, and the other a microphone. The top of the device has a 3.5mm headset jack and a small hole for a microphone that may act as a noise cancellation feature.
Around the edges of the device, there are ceramic volume and power buttons. The left has a flat, almost sharp-edged volume button, and the power button is to the upper right side.
Some colleagues of ours say the ceramic buttons are a nice touch, although it feels weird given the sharp edges. It's nothing that bothers us, but something we noticed.
Flip the device over, exposing its backside, and you'll see the word "Nexus" emblazoned on the soft-touch cover. There is an 8MP camera in an unusually large module, and an LED flash just beneath it.
Because it's a Nexus device, you can't remove the cover to replace the battery, and there is most certainly no microSD card slot for those of you wondering. If you buy the 32GB version, which we would recommend over the 16GB version, you shouldn't have to worry too much about space.
Now that you have a good idea for what the Nexus 5 looks like, let's talk about using the thing. Because it's still a 5-inch display smartphone, it will be large for many hands. We have some tall folks on our staff with bigger than average hands, and stretching up to the corners with our thumbs was still a little much.
Nexus 5 review
One thing we noticed immediately when picking up the device was its weight. It's very light, thanks mostly to LG's use of plastics here. It certainly doesn't have the same premium feel that the HTC One or iPhone 5S has, but it's easy to forgive because of its price point.
The soft touch back can get pretty greasy even if you wash your hands frequently, but it's easily wiped away. We tend not to get so picky with these things anymore, but we know there are folks who like their devices looking pristine.
While we're going to dive deeper into the software, we will say this: it is fast. Given its lack of garbage apps and widgets from carriers, and perhaps buggy interfaces from manufacturers, the Nexus 5 flies.
We didn't have any real issues with software except for the occasional app crash, but that might have more to do with apps not being fully optimized for this new version of Android.
Nexus 5 review
If you're buying the Nexus 5, chances are you already know what you're getting into. While we'd like to believe otherwise, most of the folks we know buying the Nexus 5 have known about its coming for some time.
For those of you who don't fall into that group, though, keep on reading.

Top 100 Android Apps of 2013..



With your new Android device in hand, you're ready to take on the mobile world. But with over 700,000 apps to choose from, finding which will work best for you can be a daunting task. That's why we've selected what we think are the best 100 and presented them here, for your perusal.



Careful readers will notice that this all looks quite familiar. That's because we've been pruning and updating this list for over a year, trying to make sure it has a little something for everyone. While our tastes and yours may be different, we think our list is a good starting point. We do our best to keep it fresh and interesting enough that even the most experienced Android user will be able to find something worthwhile.

Utilities    


AppGarden Lite 
Free
The interface looks dated, but AppGarden Lite is a lightweight, backwards-compatible container with dozens of useful utilities, from conversion charts to a barcode scanner to a password generator. You can bookmark your favorite utilities for quick access. My favorites folder includes the QR scanner, stopwatch, tip calculator, currency calculator, Urban Dictionary lookup, and a calorie calculator. 

avast! Mobile Security
Free
This completely free app packs in a ton of security features, like remote wipe, remote-lock, app management, safe Web browsing, a battery manager, and as an added bonus, a top-rated anti-virus engine that passed AV-Test's test with flying colors. It's also incredibly light. However it lacks a backup feature so make sure you sync it to your computer.
 


aDownloader
Free
There are lots of BitTorrent clients out there, but I like the old favorite aDownloader because it's easy to use and relatively crash-free. It also has a killer feature: the ability to pause and resume downloads. I haven't encountered any file-size limits, either.
 


Auto Memory Manager
Free
When a computer needs a performance boost, one of the most obvious ways is to upgrade or at least, manage memory; the same goes for mobile devices. Auto Memory Manager is an ad-supported app that provides detailed memory information, and lets you set memory priority on apps. It's worth downloading when your Android phone begins to feel sluggish.
