China bound Nokia Lumia 510 spotted...

Looks like Nokia is preparing a low-end device for China, the device seen above is said to be named the Lumia 510 and run Windows Phone 7.8. Design wise, the phones front looks similar to the HTC 7 Mozart and the back is minimalistic with the camera, Nokia branding and drilled holes being the only aesthetic features.

Specs wise, the device will house a 4-inch display with WVGA resoution (480x800), powered by a single-core processor clocked at 800MHz with 256MB of RAM. Camera's include a 5-megapixel rear-facing camera but no front-facing camera. No details have been leaked about the internal storage however, the storage won't be expandable due to WP7.8 constraints.

As ever, leaks are leaks and some aren't accurate so don't rely on this leak delivering. When the device does eventually get announced I'd say it'll be priced around £120-£165.

Acer Iconia Tab A110 available for pre-order from eBuyer, ships with Jelly Bean...

We first saw Acer's Iconia Tab A110 tablet at Computex, since then nothing has been said by Acer. However, now the Iconia Tab A110 has shown up on eBuyer, running Jelly Bean, available for pre-order for a price of £180 for the 8GB model.

The Iconia Tab A110 was the first 7-inch tablet to use the budget Tegra 3, the same processor use in the Neuxs 7, in comparison the Acer's screen is less denser (only 600x1024) and is in fact more expensive than the 8GB model of the Neuxs 7. The only key feature is a seperate HDMI port and a Micro-SD card slot which the Nexus 7 doesn't have and of course the Acer will get updates later than the Nexus 7.

Dimensions wise, the Acer is thicker than the Nexus 7 and more heavier. However, for those people who didn't like the Nexus 7 due to the lack of a MicroSD card slot, you can pick this tablet up for £180 in "46 to 48 days" time.

ZTE & Virgin Mobile announce Kis

ZTE & Virgin Mobile have teamed up to announce a new budget friendly smartphone, the Kis. The Kis is going to retail for only £49.99 on PAYG and for that price offers some relatively good specs. I mean compare this to a Galaxy Ace which is about £110 currently and you'll know what I mean. 

Now for the specs, the Kis offers up a 3.5-inch HVGA (320x480) display, powered by a single core 800MHz processor with 256MB of RAM. The device only has one camera, a 3.15MP rear-facing camera with auto focus. The device has 512MB of internal storage that can be expanded using a MicroSD card slot (up to 32GB). The device runs on Android 2.3 and won't get Android 4.0 due to hardware compatibility. Battery capacity is a cool 1400mAh which should keep the phone running for a couple of days depending on usage.

Compared to Motorola's MotoSmart which was just revealed yesterday, this device has the upper edge when it comes to market potential due to it's low price. Another thing to note is that if you buy this phone, you get 1GB of Internet for every month for a year.

Acer unveil Iconia A110...

Original location

Acer has unveiled the Iconia A110, an 7-inch android tablet that offers Tegra 3 and Android 4.0 with a sub-$200 price mark. Sound similar? Google has a competitor on it's hands but I suppose they expected it. Plus, theirs the thought that when Google announces their's it might feature Jelly Bean (Android 4.1).

The tablet packs a 7-inch display with a resolution of 600x1024, it is powered by Nvidia's Tegra 3 built on their newly announced Kai architecture with 1GB of RAM. The tablet includes a front-facing presumably VGA resolution camera for video calling, it also comes with 8/16GB of internal storage with the added choice to expand that by means of MicroSD card.

Overall, this is just a device for people that can't wait until the Google I/O conference. Trust me, I'd wait to see what Google/Asus's device offers and then decide which to buy, I mean both devices are planning on marketing for less than $200 so you won't loose loads of money if you do eventually go for the Nexus 7 tablet.
