March 18, 2013 at 09:58CeBIT 2013. Mobile devices. Final post about the exhibition
Almost a week has passed since the end of the CeBIT exhibition in Hanover. I will probably not repeat myself and talk about the latest in the computer market. Just recall that the read about them here: the first day ,
second day , third day .
As a final report, I propose new products of the mobile world, which, against the background of the announcement of the Samsung Galaxy S IV, are a little dull, but still deserve attention. For example, Lenovo introduced a phone with FullHD resolution.
Compared to the Galaxy Note II, it is slightly superior in size to Samsung.
It is worth noting that this is an atomophone, that is, the base was the mobile platform Intel CloverTrail with the operating system Android 4.2 Jelly Bean. The basis of this phone is the Intel Atom Z2580 processor (two cores with a clock frequency of 1.8 GHz), PowerVR SGX544 acts as a graphics accelerator. The amount of RAM (2 GB) and internal memory (32 GB + MicroSD slot) is quite large, but we must take into account that the Lenovo K900 is equipped with two cameras - 13 MP and front 2 MP, so that photos quickly eat extra gigabytes. The battery that must handle this holiday of life has a capacity of 2500 mAh.
Another super fun thing was shown by the guys from Durabook. The main competitors of Panasonic Toughbook brought a tablet based on the third generation Intel Core i5. The device can install up to 16 gigabytes of RAM, one 2.5 "HDD or SSD and another mSATA SSD. The 10-inch display has a resolution of 1024 * 768 and a maximum brightness of 700 nits. Of the necessary interfaces, there are: LAN, WLAN , Bluetooth, WWAN (LTE / 3G), GPS, two USB 3.0 ports, miniUSB 2.0, an SD reader and a PCMCIA slot.The battery has a capacity of 5200 mAh, in addition, it is possible to attach a second one, but the battery life even with two batteries will be 9-10 hours - not enough ...
At the Samsung stand, of course, SGS IV was not there yet, but you could look at other new products. The main event at CeBIT was the Galaxy Express. Outwardly very similar to SGS III, it has a low screen resolution (800 * 480) with a diagonal of 4.5 ". Otherwise, it’s a pretty decent device: a dual-core percent of 1.2 GHz and a 5-megapixel camera can attract buyers (I myself would I didn’t buy such a screen. The
protected Samsung X Cover 2 smartphone has an improved screen compared to the first version. There were no more dramatic changes.
A huge miracle called Galaxy Note 8 LTE is apparently designed to fill the gap between 7 and 10 inch versions of the tablets.
Features of the new Devices are also solid: Cortex A9 about four cores, 2 gigs RAM and stylus S-Pen Compare sizes with Galaxy Note II in the photo below.
As I already wrote, the exhibition "got around" with terrible force, and without Huawei and ZTE simply could not pass. Let's take it in order, first one of the largest mobile communications equipment vendors and best friends of Megafon, then the second largest company in China and at the same time a manufacturer of smartphones, modems and phones for Beeline and MTS. However, I’ll correct myself right away, both companies are closely cooperating with all Russian operators and I will not divide them by the degree of affection for OPSOS.
First, Huawei: the dual-SIM Ascend G510 looks like a completely suitable device, but a resolution of only 854 * 480 knocks it out of the ratings of the winners. The MediaTek MTK 6577 processor demonstrates good potential and is already often found in various smartphones of Chinese manufacturers.
Huawei Ascend Mate has a diagonal of 6.1 inches and a resolution of 1280 * 720. The comparative photo with the Samsung Galaxy Note II is lower, and on the whole it clearly traces the parallel between Ascend P2 and Mate from Huawei and SGS III and Samsung Galaxy Note II. It is worth noting that the Mate is equipped with a 13 MP camera with very decent image quality.
ZTE demonstrated Grand Memo, the name of which subtly echoes the words of the Galaxy Note ... However, okay, the filling is completely different - a quad-core Snapdragon with a frequency of 1.5 GHz, a diagonal of 5.7 "and 13 MP camera. So that all this happiness will live happily ever after with a capacity of 3200 mAh, the
ZTE Grand X Pro is a direct competitor to the Huawei Ascend G510, the same two SIM cards, the same MediaTek MTK 6577, but the resolution is 1280 * 720. Of course, not FullHD, but at the same price - a significant factor.
Perhaps all this year about Hanover and the exhibition. First impressions subsided, disappointment was gone, there were only pleasant moments like a warm spring sun and meetings with old friends. At the exit of the exhibition hung a poster with an optimistic inscription "See you again!" and dates of the next exhibition, but somehow I'm not sure about it ...
Thanks to everyone who read my opuses from this exhibition =)
