Meizu M9II Photos Leak Out, Prototype's Looking Sexy

Labels: , , , , , ,

Another photo of the Meizu M9 has just been released and this time it actually shows what the smartphone will look like. There's a picture above and below and it's looking very iPhone clone-esque. However, this isn't the 3.5-inch M9, this is actually the M9II which will feature a larger 4-inch display. Other specs include a front-facing camera, a rear-facing camera with a flash, an ARM Cortex A9 CPU, and Android 2.2 "Froyo". We don't know when this model will actually hit the market but Meizu should release some version of the smartphone in early October if everything works out.

It's about to hit Orange's PAYG service and it looks like it was at IFA as well. GSM Helpdesk just spotted the LG C300 Town at the event and there's nothing too surprising on-board.

Sony Ericsson Yendo Hits the FCC, Might Be Getting Its Name Changed To the Yizo

Labels: , , , ,

It looks like the few people who are waiting for the Sony Ericsson Yendo may cheer again since it has just hit the FCC. Furthermore, it may have gotten a slight name change, to the Yizo according to their own website. However, Engadget points out that the Yizo's page is a bit screwed up so we'll have to wait for Sony Ericsson to announce it or over the next couple of days when they fix things up. Check it out at the FCC and on Sony Ericsson's website.

Update: GSM Arena has just pointed out that this handset will be priced at €169 ($215 USD) unlocked. It will be called the Sony Ericsson Yendo, but in the US they'll be renaming it to the Yizo for some reason. I guess that solves just about all the answers - except for the release date.

Samsung Galaxy Tab To Cost Under $300 In the USA On Contract, "Coming Soon" To Vodafone UK -- On Amazon For €799

Labels: , , , , , , , , , , ,

The Samsung Galaxy Tab sadly may be quite costly to buy unsubsidized and unlocked but it looks like it may be saved by a bunch of different carriers. The Galaxy Tab is already up on Vodafone (here) but it's still "Coming Soon". Anyways, the Galaxy Tab will be hitting the USA and is said to cost under $300 on a contract but who knows how much you'll have to cough up monthly. In case you forgot, this tablet should be hitting both Verizon and Sprint - who knows if Sprint and AT&T will get their own model right now.

Update: Samsung Hub has just spotted this tablet on Amazon Germany (here) and it's going for €799 ($1,030 USD). This is definitely quite expensive and this is the unlocked version with the specs that you should be all too familiar with.
