Nokia Lumia Update – SMS + Call filter

Nokia has rolled out an update that will add the SMS and Call filter functionality on the Nokia Lumia handsets running on the Windows phone 8 OS.  This feature will allow Lumia users to block unwanted calls and SMS’s. 
The update will be available via windows phone store (extras and info app). Lumia 1020, Lumia 925 and Lumia 625 will initially get the update and followed by the other models running WP8. To block a number all that the user need to do is tap and hold until they get the options. There a block number option, once taped the number will be blocked. Users will no longer get the calls or SMS’s from the blocked numbers.
There is also an option to unblock if need be. So far users were using a third party app for the same and now it comes built in. There is the live tile option too wherein users can view the number that was recently blocked. It is a good option especially for avoiding unwanted calls (marketing / credit cards / Insurance etc).
The update is being rolled out slowly and probably within few days all of the WP8 handsets will get the call + SMS filter update option.

iBall launches Hybrid Dual Pendrive starting from Rs. 599 onwards

You might have seen many pendrives in the market, but here is a new hybrid version from iBall called the iBall Hybrid dual pendrive. This external storage device is priced starting from Rs. 599 onward.
The iBall Hybrid pendrive comes with a USB 2.0 connector it is the standard one that you see on the pendrives, you can connect it to the PC or any other supported devices, and there is another micro USB connector for connecting to micro USB supported devices such as Tablet and Smartphones.
Not all of the smartphones supports OTG and if it does, usually users buy an OTG cable to convert the USB 2.0 to micro USB. Now here is the iBall Hybrid dual Pendrive that can directly connect to the smartphone or tablet without the need of an OTG cable (provided OTG is supported on the handset).

This iBall device is light weight at 10 grams and is priced at Rs. 599 for 8GB and 799 for 16GB version. If you are planning to buy a pendrive and probably might want to use it with micro USB supported devices then this is a good option or you can anyway buy any other pendrive plus an OTG cable (approx Rs. 150 to 200).

Wammy Passion Z+ review – 5 inch FHD with 1.5GHz turbo chipset

Wammy Passion Z+ is an upgraded version of the Passion Z. It is the same handset with exact features, the only difference is the chipset that has been upgraded from 1.2GHz MT6589 to 1.5GHz MT6589T (Turbo). The Z+ is priced at Rs. 15,999 and the older version for Rs. 14,990.
Passion Z+ Box pack
The packing is the same, as mentioned it’s the same Passion Z handset with chipset upgrade. Inside the box there is the handset, screen guard, USB data cable, travel charger and 2500 mAh battery. There is no earphones included.
Wammy passion Z+ review
The handset looks good, premium design and light weight. It is a dual SIM handset and SIM slot 1 is micro SIM. The Z+ weight is 139 grams with battery and thickness is 9.70mm and 11.34 with the lens that is bulging out a bit. Breadth is 69.37mm and Length is 141.13mm. The built quality is good, handset is comfortable and feels really light. However there are small gaps on the rear side where the back cover clips with the handset (check the video review).
The OGS screen is 5 inches with 1920×1080 pixels resolution (440.58 ppi). Screen is scratch resistant to minimal extent, it’s better to use a screen guard for added protection. There is no issue with the touch and viewing angle is really good. There is accelerometer, proximity, light, magnetic and gyro sensors.
OTG is supported; I could connect my pen drive and could browse the content using an OTG cable. 3G, Bluetooth and Wi-Fi worked well without issues and I got the GPS lock in less than 20 seconds. Sound is loud and clear. Phone features worked well.
The Wammy Passion Z+ is powered by 1.5GHz MT6589T processor with PowerVR SGX 544 MP. Z+ runs on the Android 4.2.1 OS. The RAM is 1GB and internal storage is 4GB. Of the 4GB storage 1.48GB is assigned for apps (1.35GB free) and 1.27GB as internal storage. Of the 1GB RAM the free RAM is 423MB. You can install apps on external storage.
Benchmark scores comparison between Passion Z / Z+ MT6589 and MT6589T turbo

Benchmark App	Wammy Passion Z (MT6589)	Wammy Passion Z+ (MT6589T)
Quadrant Benchmark	3878	4704
Antutu Benchmark	12008	13919
Vellamo	-	HTML5 (1517), Metal (520)
Nenamark2	28.2 fps	32.9 fps (AVG – 34 fps).
Multi Touch	5 point	5 point.

The camera quality is the same as on the Passion Z. You can check the sample images attached in this article. The camera is auto focus and there is LED flash for low light conditions. Full HD video recording (30fps) and playback is supported.
As far as Gaming is concerned I tried the Dead Trigger game that worked pretty well, you can check the brief game play in the review video. I had shot this video a day before I got the iBerry Nucela N1 for review. I did not not get the chance to download and install the heavy games like Nova 3 and the MC4, but looking at the issues the iBerry N1 (with same MT6589T chipset) had I will get the handset again and try out the same games on the Z+ so stay tuned for the gaming review of passion Z+ coming soon.
The battery of 2500 mAh gives a decent backup time of up to 27 hours with moderate usage. The handset does get warm when playing games or using heavy apps.
Verdict
The Passion Z+ (that is a Ocean X7 re-branded model) is with MT6589T processor which is slightly better than the 1.2GHz MT6589 chipset. The Z+ is available for 15,999 it is Rs. 1000 more than its predecessor and a better option since the price difference is not much.

Apple's Next iPhone event slated for September 10th

Apple’s next big game changing event is slated for 10th of September if AllThingsD are to be believed. The next editions of the iPhone are slated to have 4.7 and 5.7 inch display and a cheaper variant popularly known as the plastic clad – iPhone 5C.
It is also easy to assume that iOS7 will be pushed out to all the remaining iPhones officially around that very time. iPod Lovers can expect an iPod refresh ranging from a new iPod Shuffle all the way over to a iPod touch to match the dimensions of the next iPhone.
If the event is anything like last years, then an iPad refresh might be on the table, with a new iPad mini with retina display and a new iPad 5.

LG Optimus L1 II with Jelly bean on a 3 inch screen

LG had recently launched the Optimus L1 II a low budget single SIM handset that runs on Android Jelly Bean 4.1 with 512MB RAM. This handset is powered by single core processor and does support 3G. No word as to when this will reach the Indian market or the price in India.
There are several low cost handsets flooding the Indian markets and now big brands are also coming up with affordable handsets, though not that cheap, but at least they have realized the potential. The LG Optimus L1 II is with a 3 inch TFT screen of 320×240 pixels resolution. It is powered by Qualcomm Snapdragon single core processor clocked at 1GHz.
Android 4.1 is the operating system used that works with 512MB RAM and 4GB internal storage.

There is a battery of decent 1540 mAh capacity.
The handset will be available in White and Black colors and is priced at $95.

WhatsApp introduces one-press voice texting, to be rolled out on all operating systems in 24 hours

Instant messaging service WhatsApp has rolled out an update that lets you now send voice texts by just pressing one button.
The company announced the availability of this new feature while announcing that it has now hit the 300 million monthly active users mark.They garnered a whopping 50 million new active users in just 2 months.

With this new feature, you can record and send voice clips with one press of the mic icon.
According to a report in AllThingsD, WhatsApp users now send 11 billion messages and receive 20 billion messages per day - up from 27 billion total in June.
WhatsApp has began rolling out voice messaging for all of its apps, on iPhone, BlackBerry, Android, Windows Phone and Nokia.
Simple and easy
What's interesting about this feature is that it is simple with less taps on the screen to get the job done.
You just press the record button to record your message and let go of the mic icon once ur done to send the message.
If you decide not to send the message then you just swipe to the left to delete the recording.
There is no time length limit when recording a message therefore users can get as creative as they want.

Another interesting feature is that the playback of a voice text will automatically switch from handset's speakers to its earpiece when the device is held to your ear.
The mic icon also turns blue when recipients have listened to the message

Feature available in 24 hours
In the report it is also mentioned that WhatsApp with its strength of just 45 employees will push the new voice feature simultaneously on all its platforms and will make it available to all users within 24 hours.

Facebook and WeChat already have the voice texting feature but what's interesting about Whatsapp is its one press voice text feature.
Siddhartha Bhavsaar, a businessman and an active user of WhatsApp from Mumbai is quite happy with the update, " I hate typing. Voice messaging will be so much easier and fun!"
One of the last useful update rolled out by WhatsApp was to allow its users to send batches of photos in one go.
Divya Saboo, a mass media graduate from UPG College of Management in Mumbai feels that the realms of conversation has increased ten-folds. " With family, you normally conversate in your regional language. With voice text now on WhatsApp I can easily communicate with my mother who does not know English effectively."
Rahil Shaikh, a design proffessional does not really think it makes much of a difference. "To voice chat, I will call the person. Why would I voice text and then wait for a reply on WhatsApp. The app is great for free texting and group chats, but there is no need for voice text."
This feature does not need the app updated and will automatically appear on your device once it is rolled out.
Wonder if 'instant video' is the next update from WhatsApp. We can only wait and hope.

Make your own apps with Microsoft's Windows Phone App Studio

t Imagine you have an idea for an app, but you don’t have the relevant coding skills to make the app. Well, now you can give birth to your idea in the form of a Windows Phone app, because Microsoft has come up with an ingenious web-based tool called the Windows Phone App Studio that strives to do exactly that.
Of course, Microsoft is doing this in part to propel the Windows Phone app ecosystem that lags behind Android and iOS, nevertheless, this is a nice and simple way of promoting more development. The App Studio has been designed in such a way that one can create an app by applying text, web content, imagery, and design concepts to any one of a rich set of customizable templates.
To start things off, one needs to log in to their Microsoft account, and choose a template and add the content. When the app is ready, one can download the app on their phone. It goes without saying that one should test out the app on a single device before publishing it. To make this happen, Microsoft is also simplifying the developer phone registration process and any developer can register one phone and load up to two apps.
Registered developers can unlock three phones for app testing that have the ability to load up to ten apps. To publish a new app one will need a dev centre account and for that Redmond is now offering a limited offer for registering for just $19 as a part of a ‘Summer Break’ program that will last till August 26.

With G2, LG gets its mini-Galaxy S4 moment

LG has made solid progress in the smartphone market, but still lacks a breakout hit. The company hopes the G2 will garner some much-needed hype.

Will the LG G2's splashy launch mark its first step toward Galaxy S4-like world domination?
LG certainly hopes so and has banked heavily on its latest super smartphone to finally give the company a global blockbuster it is so desperately seeking. The Korean electronics giant has been steadily building up the hype for the device, releasing videos, promoting the event through digital ads (including on this site), and making it known that its next flagship smartphone is just around the corner.
The event today -- which thankfully omitted the overly dramatic theatrics of Samsung's GS4 debut, but did feature a curious spotlight on a single Vienna Boys' choir singer at the end -- was designed to convey the impression that the G2 belongs among the big boys in the smartphone industry. The company positioned it as the ideal phone designed for the user.
"Technology without empathy can no longer be considered innovation," LG mobile CEO Jong-Seok Park said during the event on Wednesday. "Innovation for the sake of innovation is old school."
LG, which has long lived in the shadow of larger rival Samsung Electronics, desperately wants its G2 to be uttered in the same breath as the GS4 or Apple's iPhone 5. The company has a reputation for building affordable and solid -- if unspectacular -- smartphones, but wants more. It's not enough that LG is the brand customers go to because it offers a nice value; it wants to be the brand customers aspire to own.
Such is the dilemma for every smartphone vendor not named Apple or Samsung. While the two leaders benefit from a certain level of built-in hype, the other players continue to clamor for the constantly shifting attention of the consumer.
For many, the quest for smartphone relevancy has resulted in continued losses, but it's here that LG differs. In the second quarter, the company saw a 34.5 percent increase in revenue as it swung back into profitability. LG shipped a record 12 million smartphones in the period.
LG also saw its second-quarter market share rise to 5.1 percent, from 3.7 percent a year ago -- good enough to rank it as No. 3 in the world, according to IDC.
LG is looking for a fresh start with the G2. The company said in July that it was dropping the Optimus name, instead relying on the simpler G2 as the follow-up to its flagship Optimus G from last year. (The Optimus name remains as its brand for mass-market smartphones.) Whereas the Optimus G was an exclusive smartphone at AT&T, the G2 will get broader support from multiple carriers.
LG is the latest to hop aboard the trend of offering a single flagship device across multiple carrier partners, a strategy that has been successfully employed by Samsung, Apple, and HTC.
Broad distribution, of course, won't guarantee sales. If you're not Apple or Samsung, you need to try harder to get noticed. The HTC One stood out for its all-metal construction and sexy design, while Nokia's Lumia 1020 is known for its massive 41MP camera. Even then, there's no guarantee for success.
With the G2, LG crammed in an impressive amount of high-end specifications, including a Qualcomm 2.26GHz quad-core processor, 13MP optical image stabilization camera, a 3,000mAh battery supposedly able to last 1.2 days, and a large 5.2-inch high-definition IPS display.
The G2, however, uses a cheaper-feeling plastic construction at a time when most of its competitors have moved to metal.
Aside from improved specs, the marked difference is LG's decision to place the power and volume buttons on the back of the device, just under the center rear camera. It's a controversial choice that LG said came about from researching how people hold their phones. Still, it's unclear whether consumers will embrace this subtle, but radical, shift.
"It's different, which is saying something, when so many devices, especially the ones running Android, all seem to look the same," said Ovum analyst Jan Dawson. "But it's risky in a flagship."
LG needed to do something to stand out. The company's dilemma continues to be its reputation as a serviceable -- but unsexy -- brand.
"The huge difference between Samsung and LG in the U.S. is that when you talk to normal people about Samsung, they'll mention the Galaxy brand, but when you talk to them about LG they'll talk about TVs and refrigerators," Dawson said.
The company hit its high point a few years ago in the mobile business by supplying slick basic phones -- noteworthy for phone brands such as the "Chocolate" -- but was slow to jump on to the Android bandwagon when it took off.
Samsung had been similarly slow, but made up for it with a slew of products and the might of its massive marketing engine. LG doesn't have the luxury of throwing truckloads of marketing dollars to promote a device and has had to get by on the strength of its phones and more subtle promotional efforts.
LG at least sounds like it is taking its flagship aspirations seriously. The company is mimicking the strategy of other vendors and focusing all of its resources behind the G2.
"This is it for us for 2013," LG representative Ken Hong told CNET.
Hong declined to talk about how much it would spend on the G2, but acknowledged that LG wouldn't be able to spend at the same level as Samsung. Instead, LG will focus on digital and social marketing and attempt to build a grassroots movement to raise awareness for the phone.
"We don't worry about what we can't do," he said. "We worry about what we can do."
LG needs to go through the same transformation that Samsung has gone through over the past few years. But such a process doesn't come without great cost. Hong said the smartphone battle isn't a sprint, and the ones that will survive are the ones with a sustainable long-term strategy.
The company is hoping the G2 debut, which in some ways mimicked Samsung's launch events, will drum up a little hype as consumers opt to look for new phones in the critical back-to-school and holiday shopping seasons.
"We're happy we're even in the top three," he said. "It's such a competitive industry, to be even in the same list with some of these other brands just shows we're still relevant."

Lenovo launches a slew of Android and Windows 8 tablets in India

Lenovo is considered to be one the top PC vendors in India. Its Windows portfolio is top notch, but when one talks about its Android offerings then it comes up short. Today, the company launched a slew of tablets that run both on Android and Windows 8 in India. The products launched include the Android based A1000, A3000 and S6000 Android tablets and the Windows 8 based ThinkPad Tablet 2 and IdeaPad Lynx K3011.
The A1000 is a low cost tablet that costs Rs 8,999. While it runs on Android 4.1 Jelly Bean, it has a dual-core processor clocked at 1.2GHz from MediaTek and has a 7-inch display with a resolution of 1024×600 pixels. Lenovo touts its pocket studio surround sound that incorporates Dolby technology. It has front facing speakers for better audio. Additionally, it packs 16GB of internal memory along with a microSD card slot that supports up to 32GB of storage.
The A3000 is also a 7-inch tablet, but it also supports voice calling and an option HSPA+ model can also be had. It runs on Android 4.1 Jelly Bean and has a quad-core MediaTek CPU clocked at 1.2GHz. The 7-inch screen utilises IPS technology and has a resolution of 1024×600 pixels. There is no word on internal memory but it has a microSD card slot that supports up to 64GB of storage. It costs Rs 16,000.
Lenovo also had a 10-inch offering in the S6000 tablet. This is more of high-end product that strives to take on the iPad. At Rs 27,000 though it does not offer exactly cutting edge specs. It is powered by a quad-core MediaTek CPU clocked at 1.2GHz and has a 10.1-inch screen with a resolution of 1280×800 pixels. The company claims that it can last for 8 hours on a single charge and a HSPA+ version is also available.
Perhaps the most interesting product of the lot is the Windows 8 powered ThinkPad Tablet 2. It has a stylus, a 10.1-inch screen with a resolution of 1368×768 pixels and is powered by a dual-core Intel Atom CPU clocked at 1.8GHz. It also combines 2GB of RAM, and 64GB of internal storage and has USB ports as well. It can be bought with a fantastic Bluetooth keyboard that has trademark ThinkPad like keys, but at Rs 50,000 it’s definitely expensive.
Lastly, Lenovo has also launched the IdeaPad Lynx. Like the ThinkPad Tablet 2 it runs on Windows 8 and is powered by a dual-core Intel Atom processor clocked at 1.8GHz and has 2GB of RAM. Internally, it also has 64GB of memory, but this product is a hybrid, which means that its tablet module can be detached from the keyboard dock. It has a larger 11.6-inch screen with a resolution of 1368×768 pixels. It costs Rs 51,990.
