iPhone 5: Apple has the luxury to validate 4G/LTE networks operators!

A spokesman for the Swiss operator Swisscom reveals Apple tests 4G/LTE networks of partners before authorizing or not the activation of 4G connectivity on the iPhone 5.Since the dawn of time (and even before), the operators modus operandi is immutable reference when it comes to mobile in their catalog. In summary, they test and re-test devices, in particular to be very sure of their compatibility with cellular networks. Clearly, operators almost of life or death over the career of a mobile, especially in markets such as France, which are heavily subsidized.
Clearly, if a mobile phone is not listed in the offer of an operator, and therefore available in a pack at the subsidized operator said its sales did not take off in France. This relentless mechanical still suffers from a grain of sand. A huge grain of sand is the same as the iPhone. From the first day, Apple dictates its law to its partners and to comply with their little way to go. Few operators in the world to refuse to allow the conditions of Apple. But most will bend bad graces as it is important for them to have the iPhone in their catalog.

But the news of the day revealed by TechCrunch shows that the requirements of Cupertino seem to go further than we thought. According to the site, Apple is going to test 4G networks of its carrier partners. Yes, you read correctly, it is the manufacturer that evaluates LTE networks are good enough to hold its iPhone 5. It is not there a rumor, but an information initially provided by a spokesman for the Swiss operator Swisscom. He confirmed that Apple activated features a 4G iPhone 5 that he was satisfied with the tests conducted. Despite the fact that it has a brand new 4G/LTE network, Swisscom is suddenly unable to sell the smartphone as a device compatible with this technology upon its release since Apple had not finished testing mentioned above. Obviously, Apple does so to ensure that your smartphone and therefore consumers the best possible experience. But in doing so, he gets back to the operators. The Cupertino company is in a strong position now and can afford many things. But we expect that if the wind changes, operators will not do him any gift.

Huawei Ascend W3 (W2?): Photos from a new leak in Windows Phone 8

After W1, it is the turn of a new smartphone running Windows Phone 8 of Huawei to be stale before the announcement. The model in question is the W3 or W2 for some media. It appears to be as a top model.
Huawei has not announced any smartphone running Windows Phone 8. But, as usual, rumors are loaded in its place. First there was the Ascend W1, mobile medium characteristics, which came under the spotlight before any formalization.

But the Chinese manufacturer should not be satisfied merely with this model. To gain recognition by the general public on the scene Android, Huawei has presented high-end smartphones. It seems that his strategy will not change one iota on Windows Phone. This is at least what we can hope to discover the Ascend W3 whose first pictures were first leaked on a Chinese website wimp.ch before being reported by Unwired.

Many sites call this smartphone 'Ascend W2. "However, looking good on one of the images we see in the technical specifications sticker dynamic calendar.

For the rest, the characteristics of the display device that seems to evoke an upscale, with dimensions of 132 x 67 x 10 mm, 4.5-inch screen (one imagines HD) and capacity LTE/4G .

HTC Deluxe: a first press photo for the international version of HTC DNA and Full HD screen

After Japan and the United States, the HTC Butterly J / DNA should be familiar with the joys of an international version, under the name of HTC Deluxe. First press photo of the smartphone features a 5-inch screen Full HD 1080p (1920 x 1080 pixels) comes into effect to surface.Since the first rumors of an HTC DNA, we have been constantly asking us when the international version will be announced. Small reminder of the facts: a few weeks ago, the Taiwanese manufacturer announced the Butterfly J, promising a smartphone, but reserved only for the Japanese market.

The point was salivating all technology in its data sheet is its 5-inch screen Full HD (1920 x 1080 pixels), a first for a smartphone. We hoped that the device does not confine itself to the Japanese market. Soon, rumors of an HTC DNA began to circulate. And, as often these days, they typed right on. This is the beginning of the week that the Taiwanese lifted the veil on the American version of his machine.
However, it still has not said a possible international version that may find its way to the old Europe. However, a leak is to reassure us about it. If you believe a photo posted by @ evleaks, a Twitter account that showed several devices before their outings recently, the international version of the DNA / J will be called HTC Butterfly Deluxe. The image that you will find below is the first photo release (supposed) of this smartphone. However, no sale date has so far been revealed.
For the rest, the characteristics should be identical to those of the other two models. Prominent among them, we can obviously include the 5-inch screen with a resolution of Full HD 1080p (1920 x 1080 pixels), but the quad-core Qualcomm Snapdragon processor clocked at 1.5 Ghz and 2 GB of memory (RAM). The only (gro) question mark of this sheet is to get shiny side of the battery of 2020 mAh. It seems clearly undersized for such a configuration, especially with a quadruple screen resolution HD screens today. Given that smartphones and DNA Butterfly J have the same battery, there is little chance of seeing the manufacturer revise its plans before the announcement of the Deluxe. Obviously, this apprehension is purely supputative and ask to be confirmed during the test.
