QWERTY Battle: E5, E71, E72 Extensive Table & Pictures Comparison

The Nokia E71 was (and still is, in many person’s opinions) the king of candybar QWERTYs from Nokia & Symbian. But the E71 is now 2 years old and has been replaced by a new iteration, the Nokia E72, and surprisingly another design, the E5. From the looks of it, the E5 is to the E72 what the E63 was to the E71 (no, this isn’t an IQ test question), a cheaper version that compromises on some aspects while still trying to retain the charming points of the original.

Below, is a point-by-point table comparison à-la-Steve Litchfield, between the E72 & E5, with the godfather of the two, the E71, thrown in for good measure. You can click on the image to access a slightly larger version. Continue reading “QWERTY Battle: E5, E71, E72 Extensive Table & Pictures Comparison”

Samsung Galaxy Tablet to cost between $200 and $300 on contract, hitting Vodafone UK soon

Samsung recently added a new fellow in Samsung Galaxy line, the Samsung Galaxy Tab. Samsung Galaxy Tab is a 7 inch tablet, and it’s running on Android 2.2 and a lot of other features. The tablet is made to compete with the Apple iPad, which is currently known as the one of the best tablets in market, and expensive too. If we talk about the features of the Galaxy Tab, then it’s somehow better than the iPad, but only one thing can make a difference between them, and it’s the price tag.

Samsung didn’t gave any words on the pricing of the tablet yet, but Samsung is hinting that the Galaxy Tab will cost between $200 and $300 on contract (no words on which carrier is picking the Galaxy Tab in USA, but according to rumors, Verizon is most likely picking the Galaxy Tab).

But what do you people think about unlocked price? The Galaxy Tab appears on Amazon Germany site, with a huge price tag of £799, which is around $1000. I hope that it’d be around $700 to $800 in USA.

The first carrier to pick the Galaxy Tab is the Vodafone UK, but Vodafone is only telling us that the tablet is “Coming Soon”. Samsung has an aim to ship more than 10 million units of Samsung Galaxy Tab, which is a very huge aim.

So folks, that’s all what we know about the Galaxy Tab. We’ll keep you updated, so stay tuned !

Samsung Fascinate hitting Verizon this Thursday?

The Samsung Galaxy S series is the line of one of the best smartphones available in the market. Samsung Galaxy S is currently available on all major US carriers except Verizon, and now according to a new leaked screenshot, we’d be seeing the Verizon Galaxy S a.k.a Samsung Fascinate on Verizon shelves this Thursday, Sept. 9.

Samsung aired the Samsung Fascinate commercial a few days ago, and it was showing that the Fascinate is “Coming soon” to Verizon. PhoneDog is the one who spotted the release date in the commercial and they are saying that the “Coming Soon” is replaced by Sept. 9, but I checked the commercial on Youtube , and it’s still saying “Coming Soon”, which means that Samsung has removed the date from the video.

Well folks, we finally have a date now for the Fascinate. So Verizon folks, watch out for the Samsung Fascinate this Thursday in your local Verizon store.
