Huawei Ideos S7 Pro hands on

You may have caught Huawei’s press release just prior to MWC starting that revealed a new 7-inch tablet from them – the Ideos S7 Slim. That video is on its way but here’s another 7-inch tablet they also had on display – the Ideos S7 Pro which looks to be like a higher end model. Unfortunately, the actual working models got stuck in customs and the one on display doesn’t function.

The Ideos S7 Pro sports a dual core Qualcomm 1.2GHz processor, 7-inch 1280 x 800 display, either a 1.3MP or 2.0MP front 5.0MP rear cameras, Android 2.3 Gingerbread, 802.11b/g/n WiFi and 3G HSPA+. Ports – micro USB, micro HDMI, card reader, headphone jack and volume controls. Price should be a bit above the Ideos Slim.

ZTE V9 and Z-Pad 7-Inch Android Tablets Hands On

We spotted a couple of Android tablets from ZTE over at GSM 2010. The one looking like a Samsung Galaxy Tab is the V9, already released in Russia for about $330 and launching in Australia next month through Optus (with slightly differing specs) for $279 while the Archos 9 look-a-like is the Z-Pad and we’re not sure about any previous whereabouts or pricing at the moment. Both tablets have decent designs and share 7-inch 800 x 480 resistive touchscreens, Android 2.1 with later updates likely, Bluetooth and GPS.

The Z-Pad is supposedly packing a dual core, unspecified Rockchip processor, along with a Mali GPU, g-sensor (didn’t work in the demo) no internal storage, 1.3MP front facing camera and ports – mini USB, USB and SD card slots. No 3G.

The V9 packs in a 728MHz Qualcomm Snapdragon processor, the same as in the Huawei S7, a 2.0MP rear camera, GPS, 3G and WiFi hotspot with ports – mini USB, card reader, headphone, volume rockers.

AMD targets Windows tablet market with Desna

AMD is targeting the potentially lucrative Windows tablet market with a new Z series Fusion APU. 



Code-named "Desna," the tablet-optimized chipset boasts Radeon HD 6250 discrete-class graphics, two 1 GHz "Bobcat" CPU cores and a TDP of only 5.9 watts.

"There are certainly a lot of interesting things happening in the tablet market.MSI's WindPad 110W - which is powered by Desna - is really only a sign of things to come," an AMD rep told TG Daily during a Computex briefing.


"For the future, Windows 8 is definitely an exciting OS, and we look forward to pairing Microsoft's IE10 browser and other apps with our APUs on such devices."

Although the rep declined to comment on the possibility of AMD supporting Android Honeycomb, company exec Phil Hughes did refer to Google's tablet OS in an official blog post about Desna.

"[One platform] to keep on your radar screen as you do your tablet research is BlueStacks," wrote Hughes.

"BlueStacks is helping to reshape the tablet ecosystem by essentially bridging the Windows and Android ecosystems together, thus opening up new application possibilities in the amazing clarity and detail that only an AMD Fusion APU-powered tablet can offer."

As TG Daily previously reported, BlueStacks was most recently spotted on a ViewSonic tablet at Computex 2011. 



The device runs Windows 7 as its base OS, but Bluestacks allows Android and related apps to happily co-exist within an x86 environment.

Aston Martin with Mobiado brings touchscreen CPT002 – The Transparent Concept Phone

Seems like manufacturers around the world believe in surprising the consumers by expanding their horizon and entering the new market. Latest to join the group of such manufacturers that are coming up with products that are out of their niche is the British car maker Aston Martin. The company has joined hands with the Canadian mobile phone manufacturer Mobiado to roll out the line of high-end handsets that will in the days to come be in the pockets of the geeky freaks that love to grab the latest gadgets to show off their geeky fervor.

Anticipated to be launched in May this year, the CPT002 Aston Martin Concept Phone has stunning looks.  With a solid sapphire crystal capacitive touchscreen, the CPT002 is completely transparent.

The CPT002 is incorporated with the battery, electronics and SIM card into the sides that are made up of platinum. The cell phone will have Aston Martin and Mobiado logos and the signal strength indicators along the top and a series of dots along the bottom that appear similar to the dots on the iPhone to let you know which screen you’re on. The CPT002 Concept Phone are designed to integrate with an Aston Martin vehicle. It would act as a key for your Aston Martin thereby automatically unlocking the doors as you approach and connecting directly to the car display without the need to pull it from your pocket. The phone also uses the vehicle’s GPS to show your current location on FourSquare, with the car’s display also showing the location of friends and venues of your interest. Users can set cameras integrated into the vehicle and periodically take happy snaps and video which can be uploaded with information about passing cities and landmarks their Twitter and FaceBook profile.

The CPT002 accelerometer sends information from the phone sitting in the driver’s pocket is transmitted to the car to provide information about the driver’s movement from within the car seat to allow for effective deployment of safety features like airbag sequence, timing and seatbelt stiffening. This safety feature will help you avoid accidents. All the technical specks make the CPT002 Aston Martin Concept Phone worth drooling over. From sleek stylish look to cool techie features, you would actually love it for all good reasons.
