Q came up with a higher price than expected for one of its three recent launched mobiles. Every fan is annoyed who was waiting for it to be priced some what near 15k, but here is a point that is logical as well. Why Q did this? obviously they know the worth of the device is not what they have priced it for, but they have priced it just to check the market will accept any thing above 20k from them or not?surely not at first but people will make their minds to give 20k above for some other higher end device if it comes from Q, right? So before launching a Quadcore which they have rumored to be named as Noir A16. Q has decided to test the market and they are doing it well. Now they will see the reply from the people. One last thing for people who actually want to buy A12, you will just have to wait until A16 is announced you will get this device in its real worth, so till then no buys from customers will give its price a downfall.

Nokia Maps was able, through Drive, to give the user even transit navigation in offline mode, where the Galaxy S III and Google Maps just display a static map of the area.

Offer is buy a Ferrari at PKR 16800, and get a handset U225 worth 1499 free, if you happen to go there u can first take a demo of the handset first, this is an advantage to take from hyperstar, if you do not like the device than you just do nt buy this option is not there with the normal shopkeepers as the salesman wants your response and if he opens a pack for you.

Gfive mobiles are not available on all the shops but only few shop keepers are currently keeping these handsets, We are in no way attached to any of the malls but sharing here if some one is in need to buy the same handset or need a demo of the handset can go to hyperstar karachi or lahore , if he/she lives in the above mentioned city.

Nokia has suffered alot since it decided to go against the Google's Android and retain its own existence as it was 5 years back. With time Nokia came to realise few things but when things were going out of its hand, no doubt on it Samsung can not compate with nokia's hardware R&D still now but Samsung can give now a tough time to Nokia bcz it has all earned a lot of money to do that,meego could be good but Nokia decided to quit it up, Symbian's chapter already officially closed by Nokia, but the only thing Nokia is concentrating now is WP now which quite gave Nokia a little success in last quarter of 2012, and with the start of 2013 Nokia is all ready for revenge. Nokia's class in hardware along with its experties in WP outclasses Samsung or any other as it is the first one to go for the WP 8 research and has quite built in it. recently Nokia gave lumia 620 which not only is a rich in features compare to Samsung or HTC in the same line up, but also threatened Samsung and HTC especially with its low price. Truly Nokia Lumia is the only mid range WP device which is equipped with the maximum features.

Qmobile has launched its first Amoled Screen smart phone. Amoled Screen screen is known for its better screen resolution with less power consumption but Q mobile provided a lesser battery which actually reduced its less power consuming effect. Would have been a better phone to in battery time aspect compare to its predessors if 2000 mAH battery was used. It comes with a 4.3" WVGA OLED(Amoled) display. Dual sim Dual Stand by but not Dual Active,Dual core but 512 MB RAM (should atleast give 768 MB for respect of dual core that is used)

SONY has launched a quad core device which is rite now the most power ful android device released upto date, yes it bets the HTC butterfly as well in the benchmark tests. Along with this it has special feature of dust and water proof for the front and the back panel, and it was able to record 3 minutes video inside water, which is pretty amazing and the first mobile of this kind to do this.

Operating Frequency:        Quad-band GSM/GPRS/EDGE, tri/penta-band UMTS/HSPA, optional 100 Mbps LTE

Dimensions:                       139 x 71 x 7.9 mm

Weight:                               146 g

Galaxy grand is rite now the only dual core dual sim device with 1 GB RAM whether its be Branded mobile phones or china no other has provided 1 GB ram. This device has almost all the features of Note2 and S3, but with less pixel density of 187 ppi which may result for pixellation, but it still has nice display because of Samsung's supreme experience of android.Final words are it is the only dual sim device that beats S2 in some benchmark tests or almost equalize in few. But it has its own limitations, So final words are it should only be considered if a dual sim is needed. Rite now only available dual core dual sim, but soon LG L7 II is going to join the league.

In pakistan their is a handset which is available rite now at a reduced price, yes am talking about Htc Amaze 4G, so the question is whether one should go for it or not? for answer we should compare with S2

S2 has super Amoled Screen while Htc Amaze has S-LCD so comaring these two benefit is with S2 as Amoled will be less power consuming compare to S-LCD, and just due to this reason Amaze has less talk time compare to LCD.

S2 has 480 x 800 pixels 4.3 inches (~256 ppi pixel density) while Amaze has 540 x 960 pixels 4.3 inches (~217 ppi pixel density) so the screen of amaze is more bright looks very good in front of S2, so Amaze has lead in this section

For Glass Protection both have Corning Gorilla Glass

Dual core Speed is some what lesser than S2 here i am sharing Antu tu, Quadrant and Nena Mark2 Scores, self checked these scores

Antu tu Bench mark v3.1.1= 6461

Quadrant= 3290

Nena Mark2 = 42.8 fps

but one thing every one wants along with the performance of smartphone is the looks and feel of the device and yes its weight? Amaze wieghts 171g with dimensions of 130*65.6*11.8 mm, with a decent look and styling compare to S2 which is rather simple but sometimes simple is what suits you with its decent look. So final words are HTC did a lot of work to make it look nicer provided a rubber back along with metal finished material at the center of it to look nice and to give a nice grip, and yes it feels nice good as compare to S2, but for users main issue might be its weight so before going for it should have a final look on this.  

but there stands a huge difference in the pricing rite now this handset is available some how at a reduced price of as low as PKR 24000 with out warranty at few places while with warranty prices are high but if you are confirmed that handset is not refurbished then you can go for it, without warranty.

About Android update you can now get its ICS update but there stands a big question mark for its jelly bean update,and its almost no as we have seen that HTC is not quite good at this end and S2 jelly bean update is rolling out in few days infact for non Exynos chip its already out there yes am talking about TI OMAP chip.
