Review: HTC 7 Pro

Sun, 20 Mar 2011 11:33:49 +0000

The HTC 7 Pro is a new addition to the Windows Phone 7 range of smart phones. This is the very first WP7 Phone with a sliding keyboard and this is obviously most beneficial for business people. If the crucial features are well designed, the HTC 7 Pro will mostly likely have commercial success as well. The design of the keyboard has been drawn from the TyTN II in which the keyboard slides from underneath the screen and then creates an angle on the screen which is notable as it provides easier viewing when typing on a flat surface or when holding the phone. The weight and dimensions of HTC7 Pro is not too bulky considering that it packs a sliding keyboard. The HTC7 Pro looks solid all over with a metal back, plastic body and chrome finish on the screen edges. There are not many buttons and slots on the sides. It has the quintessential volume rocker, headphone connector and mini USB port. There are 3 buttons below the screen to navigate the phone features. When it comes to storage capacity, the HTC7 Pro only holds 8GB with no micro SD Slot to expand memory. Overall, HTC 7 Pro is a very solid and robust phone that you can use for your business work and some regular phone functions. Enjoy these nice pictures of HTC 7 Pro courtesy of unwired

Waze is the first provider of free driver-generated maps and real-time road information.

Dell in talks with China Mobile

Thu, 16 Apr 2009 11:18:02 +0000

According to this article, Dell is in talks with the China Mobile to launch its first smartphone in China. Although, it is not a new news/rumor of Dell getting into the smartphone business, but we always thought they would targeting US market in first place and not China. I hope Dell is well acquainted with the zillion mobile-phone designs that can be found in China. They will have to come with something that stands out from the Cheapo $80 phones. Also, since the Dell is targeting a Asian market, it would make more sense to come out with a device with resistive screen and not capacitive like the iPhone as the Asians prefer to use the stylus for data entry (try entering Chinese characters via fingers on a capacitive screen and you will understand what I mean). Most of the online rumors are pointing towards a Windows Mobile device. Windows Mobile platform is not new to Dell as their now-retired Axim line used to use Windows Mobile.
