Samsung Super AMOLED phone could run on Bada

We brought you news of a new Super AMOLED handset from Samsung that will debut at Mobile World Congress (MWC), Barcelona, and today there is a new development on this mystery phone. Apparently, it is being promoted as the first Bada-powered Samsung phone, debuting on a day filled with love - Valentine's Day. What do you think of this news - will you be all thrilled about a Bada OS phone, or are you still saving up to make sure you have enough money to purchase an Android or iPhone OS-powered handset?

Panasonic G1 disappears from website

Hmmm, with PMA just around the corner, could the removal of Panasonic's G1 digital camera (with all of its references) from Panasonic Canada's website signal a new device? After all, the Panasonic G1 is also officially out of stock in Japan, lending more credence to this theory. What do you think - is there a G2 on its way?

LG Arena Max LU9400 spotted

The LG Arena Max LU9400 is not out yet, but here's a leaked shot of what could possibly be it in an unnamed photograph. Some translations point to a 3.5" touchscreen display, Wi-Fi connectivity, GPS support, a 5-megapixel camera and perhaps a 1GHz Snapdragon processor. With the Cyon logo making an appearance on the handset, chances are this will be a South Korea-bound handset in the near future (some state March), but we'll just have to play the wait and see game.

Nokia C6 could debut at MWC

We saw the Nokia C5 just yesterday, and here's news that the Nokia C6 could also join the happy family at Mobile World Congress (MWC) later this month at Barcelona, Spain. Also known as the Nokia Mystic, very little else is known about this QWERTY candybar, although we do have word that this will hit the market for approximately $274 after conversion as it hits the market sometime in May or June. Do you think this is going to be another regular handset from Nokia, or do they have a surprise underneath their sleeves?

TomTom could offer daily map updates

TomTom could offer daily map updates

GPS navigation systems are great for helping you find your way around in unfamiliar territory, but there is a downside to it - maps that are not updated could end up leading you to a dead end, or even worse - a ditch. According to Google Translate's version of a German article, TomTom’s CEO Harold Goddijn mentioned that TomTom will be offering daily map updates (or once every two days at least) by the end of 2010 to make sure that your TomTom device will never be outdated in terms of maps. After all, many roads do change each year, and having an official update sure makes us more confident compared to user compiled data.

HD video could debut on next iPhone

HD video could debut on next iPhone

When the iPhone was first released back in 2007, many people were disappointed by its camera and lack of power in the shutterbug department. While there has been progress over the years with subsequent upgrades, the 2010 iPhone ought to be the best yet as it purportedly comes with 720p video playback and the possibility of capture in that resolution as well. After all, sifting through the iPhone 3.2 SDK pointed towards a preferences list file that allows videos as wide as 1,280 pixels and a total 921,000 pixel count to be displayed. While this isn't the first handset to do so, it is certainly a step in the right direction.

Sony could revamp PSP Go

The PSP Go didn't exactly take the world by storm when it was released last October, and rumor has it that Sony is looking for a chance to revamp the PSP Go, including a price drop to entice more buyers to its portable platform. What do you think the revamp will entail - will it be more software-oriented, or are there some physical changes that you would like to see thrown in, like a UMD drive for instance?

iPhone 4G a possibility

We all know that Apple isn't going to stop at the iPhone 3GS, with the iPhone 4G being in the works, but just how close is it to completion? Here's a snapshot of the alleged iPhone 4G, where it is in all probability a prototype of the new handset which ought to hit the market in less than half a year's time. What do you think of this customary blurry shot for leaked images from Engadget? It seems to miss out on its iconic aluminum bezel, being surrounded by a black plastic of aluminum material instead - or there could be the very real possibility of it being wrapped in a rubberized protective holder. We will just have to wait for a long enough time to pass as Jobs takes to the stage, parading around in his trademark turtleneck and jeans to bring the world to another gadget-inspired standstill.

Apple Mac OS X tablet rumors

Apple Mac OS X tablet rumors

The iPad might not even be released yet, but there are already whispers of a Mac OS X-powered tablet which comes in a more advanced form factor. This new model ought to be boast superior hardware in order to run Mac OS X smoothly, and should all go well (according to the rumor), then the system ought to be released within the year. It seems as though a large system is less likely due to the nature of the display - after all, isn't it a whole lot harder to protect a much larger display on the go? We would most probably file this as a non-existent device until something much more concrete shows up.

HTC Trophy - yet another Windows Mobile smartphone?

HTC Trophy - yet another Windows Mobile smartphone?

You can't really escape the shadow of having good software, as evident by a slew of solid smartphones in recent memory which are "wasted" on the Windows Mobile operating system while both Android and the iPhone OS continue their march to world domination. The HTC Trophy falls under such a category, where it comes with sleek specifications such as a 3" VGA capacitive touchscreen display, a full QWERTY keyboard, a Qualcomm MSM7227 600MHz processor, 512 MB of flash memory, 256 MB RAM, GPS/AGPS capability, Wi-Fi b/g and Bluetooth 2.1+EDR connectivity, dualband (900/2100) WCDMA/HSPA, quadband GSM/EDGE, a Motion G-sensor and Business Card Scanner. Sounds too comprehensive and good to be true, but the major drawback for most would be having it run on Windows Mobile 6.5. Then again, a closer look at the HTC Trophy could make you think that it is nothing but a fan render, making it the 'trophy' that HTC has been looking for to topple the iPhone from its lofty perch.

Zune Phone to be unveiled at MWC?

It seems that the Zune Phone will make its debut at the upcoming Mobile World Congress (MWC) later this month, according to Spanish blog MuyComputer. They're pretty much claiming that this is true, otherwise you can have their firstborn child. According to MuyComputer's blog editorial director Javier Pérez Cortijo, "the Zune Phone presentation at Barcelona's Mobile World Congress 2010 is 100% confirmed." They've also gone on record, claiming that the Zune Phone will come with a 480 x 272 resolution display, HDMI video out, run on Windows Mobile 7 and tips the scales at a mere 70 grams. If this is true, then expect the smartphone world to really heat up, as Microsoft could have a winner on their hands.

Upcoming Canon EOS 60D could have swivel display

Rumors abound that February is the month where Canon will make an announcement concerning a brand new DSLR alongside an update to the Rebel line of digital cameras. We're talking about the Canon EOS 60D DSLR here, where it and the new range of Rebel digital cameras will most probably come with swivel-screen displays in order to keep up with the Joneses - or to be more exact, Nikon. We will most probably see whether these rumors hold any water at the upcoming PMA 2010 event in California on February 20th.

Olympus MFT image leaked

What you see here could very well be the first leaked image of the Olympus MFT (Micro Four Thirds) camera that boasts a DSLR-quality sensor despite coming in a relatively compact chassis. The image points toward a 14-42mm lens alongside whispers of the Olympus offering being more affordable than the E-P1, where its plastic body could play a part. Devices that have plenty of plastic tend to lack class, but then again if it is easier on your wallet, that would be the tradeoff. Those who want something really sturdy can always settle for a regular DSLR.

HTC Legend whispers abound

HTC seems to be on a roll with an entire slew of new and upcoming smartphones heading our way, and another interesting model would be the HTC Legend which boasts an unibody aluminum casing alongside plastic inserts for the cover to be easily removable, making it a snap to access the SIM card carriage, microSD memory card slot and battery. Word also has it that the Legend will sport a 5.0-megapixel camera, an AMOLED display at a high 480 x 800 resolution count and an optical sensor trackpad similar to the one found on the Bravo. Let us keep our fingers crossed that Android 2.1 will ship with the Legend...
