Labels: , , , , ,

Pop Herald has picked up a blurry image of an unannounced Motorola smartphone. Early rumours are saying that this could be the upcoming DROID Bionic but it looks a whole lot like the DROID 3. It could be the former though, because the DROID 3's front-facing camera is on the right side of the device and the smartphone pictured above has its FFC on the left side.

Bell, Sasktel, and Virgin Mobile Announce the Galaxy S II For Canada

Labels: , , , , , , , ,

Three carriers in Canada have officially announced the Samsung Galaxy S II which isn't surprising since it should be launching soon and should hit just about every carrier imaginable. Bell has mentioned that the smartphone will be launching in a few weeks (possibly July 14th) and will have HSPA+ connectivity. This is one of the best smartphones that have been announced thus far and should put up a pretty good fight against the upcoming iPhone from Apple.

SaskTel has also announced that they'll be releasing this smartphone in a couple of weeks and actually leaked that it'll be available for just $79.99 on a 3-year contract which is a great deal. Virgin has also mentioned that if you pre-order the smartphone then you'll be able to get a "special offer" with it. The special offer is unknown right now so that's a surprise.

RIM Cancels 10-Inch Playbook In Favour For a "Superphone"?

Labels: , , , ,

N4BB has snagged some exclusive information on some future details regarding RIM. Apparently, the company was working on a 10-inch BlackBerry Playbook with 4G but it's reportedly been axed. This is because RIM is now, apparently, focusing on a "superphone" with a 4.3-inch touchscreen display and a 1.2GHz CPU. Not very superphone-esque so hopefully they can get their hands on a dual-core CPU of some sort. I'm excited to see what RIM can come up with because they're slowly fading away in the mobile space.
