Samsung Mobile releases Galaxy Note 2 Teaser, weeks ahead of official launch

After unveiling the successful Samsung Galaxy S3, Samsung is ready for the next Galaxy Note successor. In fact, it has rolled out an interesting video teaser for the upcoming IFA show. The clip features the director of Wings of Desire, Wim Winders, who talked about “all the things you can do in the blink of an eye, on such a small and light thing.”

The irony of this is that the Galaxy Note is by far one of the largest smart phones on the market. In a way, Samsung is trying to give us the impression that you will be able to do a lot more things on this new toy. Kudos to them!

The upcoming Galaxy Note 2 will be revealed in Berlin on August 29.

Online rumors suggest that the upcoming tablet phone will be thinner than its predecessor, with 5.5-inch Super AMOLED touchscreen display. There are also reports that a leaked benchmark test revealed that the phone’s screen resolution will be 1280 x 720 pixels.

It should come with Andoird 4.04 at launch, but hopefully it will be Jelly Bean instead. If rumours were to be true, the phone will feature 4G LTE data access, 2 GB RAM, AllShare Cast & Play, Pop up Play, and the "S Pen". There were also claims that Samsung Galaxy Note 2 will feature a 2 GHz Exynos quad-core processor, which will make multitasking a lot faster and more convenient. However, I'm not banking on this rumour as yet.

With over 10 million Galaxy Notes shipped worldwide, many experts predict that the Galaxy Note 2 will be even more successful than the current version. Samsung is banking on the Galaxy S3 and Galaxy Note 2 to get more sales before the official launch of the iPhone 5. This is probably one of the best timing to launch these two phones, since we are still not aware of what the iPhone 5 can offer us.

Apple may be able to come up with a real winner, but Samsung does not appear to stop either.

Apple iPad 2 to be launched in 2011, spring

It seems like there is no stopping Apple. The first iPad has created such a buzz and generated so much sales that it has kept many critics quiet. Apple does not intend to stop there. The second generation iPad is set to launch early next year. The new iPad will support FaceTime video calls.

While the components are undergoing testing, there are reports that say that the iPad 2 gadgets will hit the shelves next year. FaceTime is something new for the iPhone 4 and the latest iPod Touch gadgets, but we will also see it in this new tablet.

There is still a lot of work to be done on the first generation. The inclusion of camera will definitely boost more sales. I do hope that it will also include a USB port. All these are basic components. And oh yes, not forgetting multitasking capabilities!

"Clean" Windows phone 7

Microsoft is said to go clean with the Windows phone 7 gadgets. The company has published a few guidelines for developers who intend to produce applications for the new operating system. There shall be no intense violence or programs that have sexual themes.

It seems like this clean approach may help win parents over. Apps developers are advised not to include images or themes that are sexually suggestive, or anything that show the private privates, including the nipples and buttocks.

However, there is a limit the level of violence that would be allowed. Extreme gore and violence such as exploding body parts, cruelty to people or animals, decapitation, sexual interactions will also not be allowed. This is compared to the Apple as well, where there is a very clear understanding that sexually explicit nature is also not allowed in the iTunes. This is a totally different tune to that of the android market, where "some" sexual content is allowed.

How to choose a laptop

These gadgets are much more powerful today. They've also become lighter and more stylish in appearance. If you wish to get a laptop, there are some shopping tips that you can use.

1. Search for them online. Make comparisons and do reviews. Once you are done, you may want to check them out at the stores.

2. Try out the keyboard. Make sure that it is comfortable and easy to type. You should also check for its responsiveness. Try to type a few words and see for yourself.

3. You may also want to test the mousepad. This is something that is very important, and if it is not responsive, then it is very difficult to use. Make sure that it is easy to control.

4. You may also want to check out the screen size. It should be big enough to make viewing experience pleasant. However, if you wish to make it portable, then it should not be too big.

5. The laptop should also have at least two USB connections. USB products are in high demand and you will need plenty of USB connections.
