Press image of Verizon's mid-range LG Enact surfaces

Another device with uninspired design and LTE to fill out Verizon's end-of-year lineup Verizon and LG have had a steady relationship of releasing mid-range devices to fill out its smart phone portfolio, and it looks like the LG Enact will be the latest in the series. Following in the footsteps of devices like the Lucid, Spectrum and Revolution, the Enact (aka VS890) looks to have a moderate screen size, four capacitive buttons (yes, menu button included) and typical branding in all the right places. The interface looks to be the same as other recent LG phones, and considering that Chrome is highlighted as an app on the home screen we're likely looking at Android 4.1 or above loaded on the Enact. Look for this one to hit Verizon by the end of the year at a low price point on-contract. A new press image of the Verizon bound smartphone, dubbed as LG Enact has been leaked, courtesy ofevleaks. The mid-range Android device with a model number VS890 is rumored to be announced with Android 4.1 Jelly Bean on board. The LG Enact is said to sport a display with a resolution of 480 x 800 pixels and the smartphone is expected to feature a Qualcomm Snapdragon S4 Plus or a Snapdragon 400 processor and will support 4G LTE connectivity. Unfortunately, there is no word on the pricing and the launch date of the upcoming Verizon smartphone, but it's likely that it's going to be subsidizes to free on contract.

Motorola X appears in white through a new press image

As August 1 approaches, we’re beginning to see more and more leaks and press shots of the Moto X smartphone. Only yesterday we saw one such image which revealed the black Moto X in all its glory. Today, it’s the white variant which has appeared. Interestingly, this is the same variant of the smartphone which Eric Schmidt was seen using recently.
 We already know that, Motorola X will be officially unveiled on August 1 in New York. The press image and specifications of the upcoming device from Motorola has already been leaked and we now have another press render, which shows the smartphone in a white paintjob.

Additionally, a new image from evleaks shows the side profile of the Moto X and reveals the presence of power button and the volume rocker there.

Meanwhile, the Motorola Moto X is rumored to sport a 4.7-inch display with a resolution of 1280 x 720 pixels and the smartphone is said to feature a Qualcomm Snapdragon MSM8960DT chipset with a dual-core processor clocked at 1.7 GHz and 2 GB of RAM. There's going to be a 10.5 megapixel rear camera, 2.1 megapixel front camera and 16 GB of inbuilt memory.

The upcoming smartphone from Google owned company will run on Android 4.2.2 Jelly Bean and the juice for the device will be provided by a 2,200mAh non-removable battery.The specs we've been able to independently confirm include:

• A dual-core (not quad-core) Qualcomm S4 Pro MSM8960DT 1.7GHz CPU, Adreno 320 GPU (I'm not actually sure what the "d" stands for in the processor model number)
• 2GB of RAM
• 720x1184 4.7" (about 4.5" without on-screen buttons) display
• 2.1MP front-facing camera / 10.5MP rear camera
• Android 4.2.2
• 16GB internal memory, 12GB of which is user-accessible (at least in one variant)
• NFC
• 2,200 mAh battery (tipped by @evleaks and the fact I've confirmed in FCC docs)
• About 18-19K AnTuTu score
• About 7100 3DMark Ice Storm Extreme score

Samsung Galaxy S IV in a new Colour variant , BROWN AUTUMN exclusively for Verizon

Samsung launched its Galaxy S4 flagship smartphone in two color options - Black and White. The South Korean manufacturer recently added a bit more variety in the form of four new colors: Blue Arctic, Purple Mirage, Red Aurora, Brown Autumn and Pink Twilight. Now, a press image of the Samsung Galaxy S4 in the "Brown Autumn" color has been leaked, courtesy ofevleaks, and it looks like the new paint job will be exclusive to the Verizon customers. Unfortunately, there is no official word on the availability of the newest hue, but we expect Verizon to start selling its Galaxy S4 "Brown Autumn" in the coming days. Last year saw Verizon add the Amber Brown version of the Samsung Galaxy S III to its shelves, and now it looks like the big red carrier will follow that up by launching the Brown Autumn Galaxy S 4. A new image shared by @evleaks shows an Autumn Brown version of the Galaxy S 4 with "Verizon 4G LTE" branding on its backside. Outside of the new paint job, the device looks the same as the White Frost and Black Mist Galaxy S 4 models that are currently sold by Verizon. The company didn't say which carriers would be offering the new Galaxy S 4 colors, but considering that each U.S. operator got its own special shade of Galaxy S III, it wouldn't be a surprise to see at least some of the GS4's new paint jobs make their way stateside as well. While there's no word yet on when this Brown Autumn Galaxy S 4 might be making that journey, at least Verizon customers know that they'll be eventually have the option of getting their GS4 with a splash of color.

Samsung Galaxy S IV with Snapdragon 800 processor AnTuTu benchmark leak, Samsung Galaxy S IV dual-sim at 27990 inr

Not content with just two versions of its Galaxy S4 flagship (Active, mini, zoom aside), Samsung created a third version - a South Korea-exclusive S4 with Snapdragon 800. We’re getting more and more indications that there will be an international version of that phone. First there were some pretty impressive AnTuTu benchmark scores, now there are screenshots from another AnTuTu run. The total score is lower than the previous leak, lower than even the Korean Galaxy S4 LTE-A benchmarks. The GPU score is close to the 9000+ points Adreno 330 usually scores - high above the 5000+ of Adreno 320 and above even the 8000+ of PowerVR SGX 544MP3 in the Exynos 5 Octa version. Anyway, the screenshots confirm the I9506 model number, 2.3GHz Krait 400 CPU and Adreno 330 GPU. Those are all the ingredients of a Snapdragon 800 chipset, which has LTE-Advanced (Cat. 4) connectivity or 150Mbps downlink speed. The phone was running Android 4.2.2, same as the current Galaxy S4. The software is most likely unfinished, which explains the inconsistent scores. Unfortunately, all the rumors so far have failed to deliver a believable announcement date - the upcoming IFA event is a possible target, but historically it’s when Samsung announces the Galaxy Note. Unfortunately, the leaks or benchmarks don't tell us anything about the launch dates! Currently the Samsung Galaxy S4 is available with either a Snapdragon 600 or an Exynos 5 chip onboard, but a third processor configuration could soon be available as well.

Last week we reported on the Galaxy S4 SHV-E330S, powered by a Snapdragon 800 and featuring LTE-Advanced support. Now the device has appeared again in AnTuTu, breaking all existing records.

Why the big jump now? Honestly, there are many possible reasons. First, every time you run a benchmark, you are likely to get a slightly different result. The reason for this is that sometimes different resources and background processes may be running that could effect the result. Additionally, the Snapdragon 800-powered Galaxy S4 might not have been properly optimized at the time of the first test. Keep in mind that there is still the possibility that the SHV-E330S is a fake. That said, the same handset number has already passed Wi-Fi and DLNA certification, so it is seemingly more and more likely that the SHV-E330S is real. The biggest remaining question is where and when the handset might emerge. Currently all evidence points to the Snapdragon 800-powered S4 coming exclusively to Korea, though again – nothing is official until Sammy says it is. If the Snapdragon 800 model of the Samsung Galaxy S4 does make its way outside of Korea, would you be interested in picking it up?

The single SIM version of Samsung Galaxy S4 mini has been available on the market for a few weeks now, but its dual-SIM counterpart has hit shelves only recently. The good news is that Samsung I9192 Galaxy S4 mini is not limited to only a few markets, as the South Korean company has decided to globally roll out the device. According to GSMArena, the dual-SIM version of Samsung Galaxy S4 mini is now available for purchase in the US via Amazon, Cells4U and a few more online retailers. The cheapest is up for grabs at Cells4U at only $470/€360 off contract, while Amazon offers the smartphone for $483/€368. Android fans in India will be happy to know that both white and black versions of dual-SIM Samsung Galaxy S4 mini are now available for pre-order via Flipkart for Rs 27,990 outright, which is about $470 or €360. The handset is expected to arrive in other countries such as Mexic, Spain and Egypt, but no details on the exact release date have been disclosed yet. Aside from the fact that it comes with dual-SIM support, Samsung I9192 is no different from its single-SIM brother. It runs the same Android 4.2.2 Jelly Bean operating system and packs a similar 1.7 GHz dual-core Qualcomm MSM8930 Snapdragon 400 processor. The smartphone also features an Adreno 305 graphics processing unit, along with 1.5GB of RAM and 8GB of internal memory that can be further expanded up to 64GB via microSD memory card. Samsung Galaxy S4 mini sports a more than decent 4.3-inch Super AMOLED capacitive touchscreen display that supports 540 x 960 pixels resolution and features Corning Gorilla Glass coating. On the back, it boasts an improved 8-megapixel photo snapper with autofocus, LED flash and full HD (1080p) video recording, while in the front, there’s a secondary 1.9-megapixel camera for video calls.

Motorola Droid Ultra shows up in Red attire, Black and red back of Motorola DROID Ultra MAXX leaks

We all know that Motorola, the Google owned company is working on a trio of Android smartphones and one of them is the Droid Ultra. We saw the official Droid Ultra page with the tag line "Think Thin" on the Motorola's website and we even had the press render and the camera samples leaked. Now, we have the press render of the Motorola Droid Ultra in its Red dress courtesy of evleaks. The Verizon bound smartphone is rumored to feature a 4.7-inch HD Super AMOLED display with Corning Gorilla Glass 2, Snapdragon S4 Pro chipset with 1.7 GHz dual-core Krait CPU, 16 GB of inbuilt memory and a microSD card slot. Motorola Droid Ultra will come out with a 10 megapixel or a 14 megapixel rear camera with a LED flash, 2 megapixel front shooter and a 2,500mAh battery will provide the juice for the smartphone. Motorola Droid Ultra along with Droid Mini and Droid Ultra Maxx is expected to be showcased at the upcoming Verizon event on July 23 in New York.

We saw the Motorola DROID Ultra MAXX for the first time two weeks ago, but back then only its front panel was exposed. We now get to see the other side of the smartphone that will reportedly going to have specs identical to the Motorola DROID Ultra plus a larger battery. The rear side of Motorola DROID Ultra MAXX has a familiar texture. Just like the DROID MAXX, the Ultra MAXX version will be made of Kevlar, but unlike its predecessor it will have a cool red accent across the middle of its back panel. The Motorola DROID Ultra MAXX is expected to go official on July 23, when Verizon is holding an eventdedicated to the lineup. As the latest rumor has it the DROID Ultra MAXX might feature a 4.7-inch Super AMOLED display and a Snapdragon S4 Pro chipset with a quad-core 1.7GHz Krait CPU. You could also expect 16GB internal storage, 10+ megapixel camera and a 2500mAh battery.

Nexus 7 : second generation leaks out in Photo and Video

Google is expected to unveil a follow-up to the Nexus 7 soon and this week some photos and video purporting to show the next-generation Android tablet turned up online, as did some rumoured specs and pricing information. Android Central has published the "first probable pictures of what we believe is the long-awaited successor to the Nexus 7," images the tech site said were leaked by an anonymous source. Separately, Android Central said it had learned that Google will price a 16GB version of the tablet at $229 (£150) and a 32GB version at $269 (£177). "First, a quick caveat: Ain't nothing official yet. Google's not announced anything, and we have no idea if what we see here is a finished product, or prototype," the site hedged before spilling some interesting details about the purported second-generation Nexus 7.  It's being made by Asus for Google, just like the original Nexus 7   The new tablet runs the yet-to-be-released Android 4.3  Android Central anticipates that there will be Wi-Fi-only models and versions capable of accessing cellular data network.   The new tablet sports a 7in LCD display, has dual speakers, and features two cameras — one more than the current Nexus 7 — a 1.2-megapixel, front-facing camera made by Lite-On Mobile and a 5-megapixel, rear-positioned camera from Chicony The unit viewed by Android Central is powered by Qualcomm's quad-core Snapdragon S4 Pro chip on the Qualcomm APQ8064 logic board, though the site noted that other reports have the second-generation Nexus 7 using a Snapdragon 600 processo The next Nexus 7 may have "a ridiculously whopping 4GB of DDR3L RAM," per Android Central, though "we're not 100 percent sure on that, 2GB wouldn't surprise us at all," the site added  The power button and volume rocker are in the same place along the side of the new tablet as they are on the current Nexus 7, and the next-gen device sports a microUSB port just like its predecessor The Android Central leak comes shortly after Google sent out invites for a July 24 event in San Francisco, which will feature an appearance from Sundar Pichai, Google's chief of Android and Chrome.  Some Google watchers also expect the company to release a new version of its mobile operating system next week, but Android 4.3 is more likely than Android 5.0 Key Lime Pie, which is rumoured for an October unveiling. ith Google's chitchat breakfast event with Sundar Pichai coming up next week, speculation has been rampant that a new Nexus 7 could be imminent. Just like clockwork, the leaks are beginning to flow. A new video purports to show the second edition of Google's 7-inch slate, and it's accompanied by some snapshots. The device certainly looks legit with the sideways Nexus branding on the back, matching a previous leak. An Asus logo is also clearly visible at the bottom. The device again has a 7-inch LCD, but the resolution isn't apparent in any of the pictures. The overall design looks almost identical to the first N7, but there are two speakers on the back instead of one. We're expecting 2GB of RAM, and 16/32GB storage options. The rest of the specs are unknown. Start saving your pennies, everyone. Google will be asking for your money very soon. Hot on the heels of the pricing details from yesterday The unit from the leaked images is said to boot Android 4.3 Jelly Bean. You can see a video of the alleged second generation Nexus 7 below. The second generation Nexus 7 is expected to break cover next week, on July 24 at an event in San Francisco.

Another hue of Nokia Lumia 1020 : RED

For a company that’s been so enthusiastic about releasing a colorful assortment of smartphones, Nokia’s latest Lumia 1020 sure feels like it comes up a little short, available only in yellow or neutral notes. That’s what made it so interesting to see the above render arrive this morning, apparently showing off the 1020 in red.Stephen Elop announced the Nokia Lumia 1020 with an epic 41MP camera almost a week ago and said it'll be available in three color variations: yellow, white and black. However, as a leaked posted by evleaks shows, the WP8 cameraphone is going to also be available in an additional hue. As you can see on the left, the exclusive red color is destined for AT&T customers only. Come July 26 you'll be able to buy the Nokia Lumia 1020 for $299.99 with a two-year contract. If you want to be among the first to have it, you can now pre-order your unit. There's no information whether the red Nokia Lumia 1020 will be available at launch or shortly after that. The Nokia Lumia 1020 features a 4.5 inch WXGA AMOLED display with a resolution of 1280 x 768 pixels, there is also a dual core Qualcomm Snapdragon 1.5GHz processor, there is also 2GB of RAM and 32GB of built in storage. The Nokia Lumia 1020 features a 41 megapixel PureView camera with OIS, Nokia Pro Camera, a Xenon flash for photos and an LED flash for video. As soon as we get some more details on exactly when the red Nokia Lumia 1020 will be available with AT&T we will let you guys know. Included above, the leaked PR shot apparently shows a Lumia 1020 with a red casing and an AT&T logo. This doesn’t confirm the existence of this alternative color, but it does hint Nokia at least toyed with the idea of a crimson-colored version. Whether it will materialize remains to be seen, but I would welcome yet another splash of color in the Lumia 1020 lineup. A few extra carrier choices wouldn’t hurt, too.

Nokia making Lumia 625 with 4.7 in and LTE leaks

Nokia is working on a new Lumia phone, which is expected to launch shortly. Called the Lumia 625, it is said to be the cheapest Lumia phone in Nokia's range.

According to the sources at The Verge, the Lumia 625 will have a 4.7-inch, 800 x 480 resolution display, which is the largest for a Lumia phone so far. Other specs include a dual-core 1.2GHz Snapdragon S4 processor, 512MB of RAM and a 5 megapixel camera. The handset apparently features a 4.7-inch WVGA screen with super-sensitive touch, 1.2GHz dual-core Qualcomm Snapdragon S4 processor, 512MB of RAM and 2,000mAh battery -- basically a lower-end model. While the listing only mentions GSM / GPRS and WCDMA / HSPA support, the phone supposedly includes LTE, and wraps everything in a unibody design that follows the attractive looks of its smaller cousin, the Lumia 620. In fact, the shape appears to match the RM-941 that passed through the FCC back in June. The device is expected to land in China at the end of July for 1,999 yuan ($325) No word yet on international availability. There's no word on US availability, but one particular variant of the Lumia 625 recently passed through the FCC with support for AT&T's GSM network This is the right step for Nokia as low-end devices is exactly what both Nokia and Windows Phone needs to increase market share. Now it's time for Microsoft to step up its game and introduce new features through regular updates Nokia's Lumia 625 is the next part of the company's strategy to push Windows Phone to even lower price points. The Nokia Lumia 520 is the most popular Windows Phone worldwide, according to data from Adduplex, and it has secured 13.3 percent share. Similarly the Lumia 620 has secured 9.6 percent, and the Lumia 710 has 9.6 percent. While Nokia is pushing Microsoft's mobile OS to the low-end, it faces increasing competition from competitors like Samsung, and its own low-end Asha line continues to sell well against Lumia Windows Phones. We expect Nokia to launch a high-end phablet, perhaps once Microsoft adds support for higher-resolution displays to Windows Phone, but for now it looks like the largest Windows Phone display will head to emerging markets.

Sony Honami photo showing Camera UI surfaces

Sony Honami, another image has popped up showing off the new camera interface of the anticipated next Sony flagship. Now the 20MP sensor and the redone camera interface aren't exactly news - the latter is even available for current Xperia flagships via a leaked ROM, but it's the first we see it running on the actual phone. The above image also reveals that Sony has been hard at work trying to match the smartphone camera offerings by competing manufacturers like Samsung, and, more recently, Nokia. Back to the Sony Honami - the smartphone is said to feature Sony's G-lens and BIONZ image processing for its 1/2.3" image sensor. The device will have 5-inch 1080p display and will be running on a Snapdragon 800 chipset with a 2.2 GHz quad-core Krait 400 CPU, Adreno 330 GPU and 2 GB of RAM. There will be 16 GB of expandable storage and the whole thing will be powered by a 3000 mAh battery. Like most recent high-end Sony smartphones, the Honami will feature IP57 dust and water resistance.

HP trying to get into the Smartphone world again by their BRAVE

HP's first Android smartphone is reportedly codenamed as Brave and will house a quad-core 2.3 GHz Qualcomm Snapdragon 800 mobile chipset. However HP spokesperson calls it a hoax. HP is reportedly working on a Android operating system based smartphone. PhoneArena has claimed to have got the image renders and AnTuTu Benchmark listing of the HP smartphone. As per the leaked images of the AnTuTu Benchmark, HP's first Android smartphone is dubbed as HP Brave 675A. It will feature 4.5-inch touchscreen display with 1600x900 resolution. The phone packs quad-core 2 GHz Qualcomm Snapdragon 800 mobile processor with 2 GB RAM. The smartphone is said to feature a 14.5 megapixel camera at the back and 5 megapixel camera in the front. Meanwhile, a spokesperson of HP dismissed the report, saying, "This is not an HP phone. The photo is a fabrication and is not a photo of anything HP has in the works. Someone is making stuff up." The image renders appear like someone has taken the Apple iPhone chassis image and stamped the HP logo at the back and Android user interface in the front. The leaked images and specifications details may not be of the actual HP Android phone but then it certainly draws the attention to the company for a bit. Believed to feature a 2.0 GHz Snapdragon 800 chip along with a unique 14.5MP camera sensor, the HP Brave could certainly be a smartphone to watch out for. Other specs include Android 4.2, a resolution of 1600×900 and 2GB of RAM.. We’re guessing HP will launch this smartphone during the IFA event in September where other prominent devices could be announced. We will certainly get to hear a lot about this smartphone in the coming days. While there’s no guarantee HP will actually launch such a device, gathering data from AnTuTu in the past has been a solid source for upcoming devices. Based on the data, the HP Brave could be a nice comeback for the company, which has floundered in the mobile space with a failure in webOS and a budget Android tablet to date.: Sony, LG and HTC are all expected to use Qualcomm’s best silicon in upcoming phones. That’s lower than the 1920 x 1080 screens on current flagships, but provides a similar pixel density at 408 pixels per inch. That means the screen would be just as clear as peer devices even though the screen is smaller. And that may be a good thing: It’s nearly impossible to find a top performing Android phone these days that doesn’t have a screen under 4.7-inches.

Apart from SIM slot increment and reduced RAM, everything else looks to be same on the rumoured smartphone. Some say that the dual sim feature will be a CDMA-GSM one. No news apart from this is available.

Galaxy Note 8.0 Android 4.2.2 ROM leaks

Samsung announced the Galaxy Note 8.0, its smallest Note tablet, at Mobile World Congress earlier this year. The device comes with Android 4.1.2 pre-installed. An official 4.2.2 update has not been released yet. Nevertheless, an Android 4.2.2 Jelly Bean ROM for Samsung Galaxy Note 8.0 Wi-Fi has leaked online, giving owners of this tablet the opportunity to test out the latest flavor of Google’s mobile platform. In case you’ve forgotten about this device, Samsung Galaxy Note 8.0 has an eight inch 1280×800 display and runs on a 1.6GHz quadcore processor.

While the update is not rich with new features it reportedly makes the tablet smoother and improves battery life. The bigger Note 10.1 (which launched with ICS) is still on Android 4.1, so the newer tablet will actually get ahead. Anyway, you can grab the RAR file you need for the update here, the file is about 1.2GB big. Note that this firmware is for the N5110, the Wi-Fi only version of the Note 8.0 and will not work on the 3G/4G-enabled N5100.

Blackberry Aristo (A10) leaks in a video

We can't say we haven't seen the BlackBerry A10 before, but seeing it in action on video is a new ballgame altogether. It seems that BlackBerry's next flagship BB10 smartphone, the A10, is ready to step after the plate after an accessories store in Vietnam apparently got some hands on time with the device. The device, codenamed Aristo, has appeared in a brief clip posted to YouTube and Facebook by the ViVix Accessories store in Hanoi, and showcases the device's purported 5-inch, 1280 x 800 display with BB10 on board. The 29-second video, which presumably has been obtained through manufacturing sources in the country, suggests the device will take its design cues from its predecessor, theBlackBerry Z10. Beyond the larger screen, the only apparent design change is the presence of dual coloured body. The Z10 shipped in black and white, while this one boasts both colours, as evidenced by pics leaked last week. As we mentioned, this may be the first video appearance, but it isn't the only A10 leak recently. On Friday the device reportedly made its first appearance in front of the cameras with a number of candid snaps. According to previous speculation the device may boast the same screen size as rivals like the Samsung Galaxy S4, but could be found wanting in terms of specs. Reports have suggested its only slated to rock a dual-core processor, quad-core GPU to enhance the gaming experience, 720p video recording and an 8-megapixel camera. Hot on the heels of the BlackBerry Z10 getting an update to BB 10.1 and price cutsat various retailers, a future model to come out of Waterloo has apparently been leaked.  Over the last few days, we have seen a leaked picture showing us the front of the BlackBerry A10, also known as Aristo, and a leaked picture showing us the back of the device. On Saturday night, a video was discovered that shows 29 seconds of what is called the "most powerful BlackBerry ever". The problem with the phone is that is shows how the Canadian OEM has not learned its lesson. This model will apparently feature a dual-core processor and a 720 x 1280 resolution. Once again, BlackBerry wastes an opportunity to offer a phone with specs that at least are matching what is on top-shelf Android models. BlackBerry CEO Thorsten Heins has said that this model gets him excited which makes us wonder if he has actually looked at what the competition is offering. Has he not learned his lesson from the launch of theBlackBerry Z10 and the release of the BlackBerry Q10? And even if he is dressing up the company for a sale, he still needs to show that there is some sort of future for the company to attract buyers. Check out the video of what looks like the first 5 inch BlackBerry, and hope that it is not too late for BlackBerry to give the phone the specs it needs to compete against comparable Android units.

Huawei Honour 3 leak

The Huawei Honor 3 has surfaced on the web in its full glory through some leaked images and we have managed to lay our hands on the device’s specs list as well, apart from its pictures. This Huawei contender comes across as a high-end smartphone complete with the ability to resist spills and splashes.  Huawei is said to bring a waterproof handset in the coming days. The Chinese major, who goes into top with two mind blowing Android powered phones earlier in the year, is now ready bring Huawei Honor 3. The makers behind Ascend P6 wanted to show Japanese titan Sony that they are also capable of making a waterproof phone. The device, however, looks like a mid -end affair. Gforgames got its hands on some alleged images of Huawei Honor 3. The handset is made of plastic having a 4.7-inch display. The site further claims that the phone also packs Infrared blaster. It is now common to see tech vendors integrating more and more unique features. The HTC One and the Samsung Galaxy S4 comes with Infrared blaster. The Honor 3 will have a 4.7-inch 720p HD display along with 1.5GHz quad -core processor made by Huawei. Performance wise, it won't disturb you considering the makers have placed 2GB of RAM and 8GB of internal storage. For New Smartphones Gallery The internal storage can be further expanded via microSD card. In the camera department, the Honor 3 is said to have a 13-mega pixel rear shooter and on the front panel - 1.3-mega pixel camera allows to chat. The phone will be power by Android 4.2.2 Jelly Bean with Emotion 1.6 UI on the top. As of now, it is not known whether the device will be dustproof or not. Late last month, Chinese site MyDrivers, published few images of Honor 3. Interestingly, the white variant of Honor 3 is known, as of now. It is to be seen whether India gets Honor 3 in the coming months. Huawei is serious about India and the company has planned to launch few more handsets later in the year. The guys over at Gforgames have unearthed the Huawei Honor 3 smartphone’s photos, while some of its specifications had come to light back in June itself. If the rumors doing the rounds are to be believed, the handset in question will be outfitted with a 4.7-inch multi-touch screen capable of rendering visuals in 720p resolution. As far as the system memory is concerned, the phone has 2 whole gigabytes at its disposal. A 1.5GHz quad core processor may hide under the hood and the Huawei Honor 3 is expected to take the assistance of the Android Jelly Bean 4.2.2 OS. This platform is likely to be garnished with the Emotion 1.6 UI as well. The Honor 3 is yet to go official and naturally its price and availability details are under wraps.

Image of Verizon's Moto X leaks, LTE in tow

There she is, folks. That is your first look at the Moto X variant headed to Verizon. No details have accompanied the photo, but we can clearly see Big Red’s “4G LTE” logo in the notification bar, along with a phone design thatmatches up to previous leaks. The phone pictured appears to be running stock Android or at least a version that is extremely close to stock Android. We’re looking at the stock icons, coupled with on-screen navigation keys. Most importantly though, the screen takes up almost the entire front of the device and is most definitely edge-to-edge with little chin or forehead. 

Clearly this is a test device, hence the “MOTOROLA CONFIDENTIAL PROPERTY” and “NOT FOR SALE” tagged across the top and bottom. The circular Motorola logo in the top left is also typically used on test devices rather than retail units. So when this phone launches, it could be almost brand-less outside of the little Motorola batwing that should be inserted into the indention on the back side. And remember, this device won’t be a DROID in the sense that the ULTRA and MAXX will be. This is Motorola and Google’s baby that will be a flagship across all carriers. This follows a roadmap that leaked yesterday showing the release date of the handset on Verizon (as well as the HTC One). Overall, the phone isn’t very large, and looks quite a bit similar to the Nexus 4. We also get a look at the Android software running on it, of which there is only one really notable portion. A careful look at the keys on the bottom of the screen reveals that the background behind them is transparent. This is a change up from what we currently see, and could indicate anything from a customization specific to the phone to a newer version of Android being on it. Aside from that, what we see are some large bezels at both the top and the bottom of the screen, as well as the generic black color that will be offered on the handset (in addition to white, it is said) available from carriers. The customization options, of which they’re rumored to be numerous, will be available to those who order online with their own selections. According to the leaked roadmap, Verizon will be launching the Moto X on August 23, giving us a bit over a month left in waiting. It is possible Motorola will be revealing the device well before this date, however, especially considering the number of leaks that have surfaced concerning the device The upcoming smartphone from Motorola has been the talk of the town ever since we heard about it for the first time. The Moto X has been leaked numerous times and recently, we also saw the device with Eric Schmidt, the Google Executive Chairman at the on-going Allen & Co. annual conference in Sun Valley. Now, the image of the Verizon bound Moto X has surfaced and the latest leak reveals the presence of the LTE radio in the smartphone. The image hints us that the upcoming device from Motorola might be running a newer version of Android. Interestingly, the background behind the on-screen soft-keys looks semi-transparent in contrast to the solid black bar on Android 4.2.2 Jelly Bean. However, this could well be a software customization, but with Android 4.3 around the corner, there is every chance that we are looking at what could be a new look for the stock Android launcher.The Moto X will be assembled in the United States and the smartphone is expected to be announced in August.
