Samsung Galaxy Note III Phablet to record 4K (UHD) videos


Samsung will unveil the Galaxy Note III in Berlin on September 4, but as the Samsung Galaxy Note III announcement nears, rumors about the upcoming phablet are getting more and more specific. According to the latest gossip the Galaxy Note III phablet will capable of doing 4K (UHD) video recording. The report comes from The Korea Economic Daily and while there's no way to check its authenticity, it does seem rather plausible.

We already heard that the Sony Xperia Z1 (also known as Honami) will sport 4K video recording, so it would make sense for Samsung to try and match that with its latest flagship. The Snapdragon 800 chipset and the Exynos 5420, rumored to power the different Galaxy Note III versions, should both pack enough oomph to handle the increased load. And with the phablet almost certainly coming with a microSD card slot for memory expansion, the resulting huge files shouldn't be a problem either.

But that's not all the rumor mill brought today. According to the same report, the Galaxy Note III will will also offers higher-quality audio playback. This means the phablet will support 24-bit/192KHz sound compared to the 16-bit audio (CD quality) supported by all Galaxy smartphones to date.


Motorola Nexus 5, A New Nexus Family Reported to Be True



Android smartphone may be the king of smartphone right now. It offers different taste and experience than other OS. Even other OS smartphone are also give what they have to people, but consumers can choose what suits them. Indeed, consumers know what they want from the producers which in this case are the manufacturer from any countries.

Earlier today we’ve told you about a report claiming that the Nexus 5 will be developed by LG, just like it happened with its predecessor, the Nexus 4. Well, the infamous @evleaks thinks otherwise, saying that the next-gen Nexus smartphone will be a Motorola handset.

Each and every smartphone enthusiast knows about @evleaks, but if you don’t learn he has made a name for himself on the scene by leaking info and pictures of unreleased products and his reports are most of the time accurate.

This time @evleaks though it’s about time to dismiss some rumors about an alleged Nexus 5 photo that made the headlines over the past couple of days. Evan Bass claims that the “Nexus 5 [we've seen in leaked pictures] is probably the LG Optimus L9 II,” adding that the Nexus 5 will most likely be a Motorola handset. He also mentions about the name of Nexus 4 v2.

@evleaks’ claims check out with Tailor Wimberly’s report saying that we will see a Motorola Nexus 5 in Q4 2013. Wimberly has been pretty accurate with the Moto X rumors, thus we are tempted to believe his reports. The same source said that the Nexus 5 will be different from the Moto X Google Edition, which keeps us wondering about the smartphone’s technical specifications.
Anyway, it reports are indicating that Google plans have a Nexus 4 price point approach for the Nexus 5, too. Therefore we might see the next-gen Nexus smartphone selling through Google Play at a price starting $299.

But will the Motorola Nexus 5 cannibalize Moto X’s sales? No, it won’t as the two smartphones aim at different public segments. The Moto X will be like an iPhone of Android world, an easy to use smartphone that packs a couple of cool features, but which will be the most customizable smartphone ever in terms of design. A smartphone designed for the masses. On the other hand the Nexus 5 will be an affordable terminal with technical specifications placing it at the border between mid-range and high-end segments, with unlocked bootloader and stock Android, aiming at the tech savvy type.
