LG LS970 ‘Eclipse’ specs leaked: 1.5GHz quad core CPU, 2GB RAM, 13MP cam, and more

Samsung may have an edge over many of its competitors with the specs that the Galaxy SIII is currently rocking, but leaked information pertaining to a certain LG LS970 “Eclipse” Android smartphone makes it positively inferior. The LG LS970 “Eclipse” is probably not even in production yet, but its specs have been revealed to include a 1.5GHz quad core Krait CPU, 2GB of RAM, and a 13-megapixel camera. Most people would be excited upon learning this type of news, especially if they’re fans of LG, I suppose. But if you find yourself feeling a bit apprehensive or scared, that’s okay too. This thing is obviously a monster.

Total number of Android-powered devices in the wild tops 4,000, says study

I have a theory about why Samsung had to make the Galaxy S3 look the way that it currently does, which is somewhat radically different from its sales record-breaking predecessor. They simply wanted a way to make it look different as a way to set it apart from most of the other Android phones that are flooding the market. Of course, Samsung can’t have a brick, and besides that would help them avoid having to deal with ridiculous lawsuits from the likes of Apple. Yet no matter what Samsung tries to pull in order to become a unique snowflake in this blizzard of Android-powered phones, it will ultimately prove to be in vain because as the graph above shows, there are simply far too many handheld robots in the open mobile kitchen.

Nokia charging less money after paying for more expensive components inside Lumia smartphones

In its struggle to compete with current smartphone market leaders, it turns out Nokia has had to drastically reduce its profit margins for the sake of fitting better hardware inside less expensive phones to attract more users. Currently, the flagship Nokia Lumia 900 sells for a full $200 less than the Apple iPhone 4S and yet actually costs Nokia almost $30 more to make. That means Nokia pays more money for each unit of the Lumia 900 than Apple pays for each unit of the iPhone 4S, yet takes in less money as profit after a unit gets sold in the market.

Samsung invests $500,000 to join Linux Foundation in struggle to dethrone Apple’s iOS

Even before the official announcement of its latest flagship smartphone, the Galaxy S3, it was evident that Samsung had big plans for its mobile computing market conquest. As it turns out, the Korea-based company is dead serious about dethroning current market leader Apple and its industry-leading iOS smartphone platform. And the way it plans to do this is by investing in the development of free open source software which is the basis for Google’s Android and its own bet for a new mobile computing platform, Tizen. To that end, Samsung has put in a $500,000 USD investment in the Linux Foundation, the group in charge of the mobile OS Tizen’s development. According to a report on Business Insider, this half-a-million dollar investment automatically gives Samsung Platinum membership and a seat on the board of the Linux Foundation, where it can effectively exercise more control over all software development and make sure that all the right moves are made to eventually knock iOS out of the smartphone arena. The question now probably shouldn’t be how, but when. What Apple plans to do to combat this double threat of Android and Tizen from Samsung and other backers of the Linux Foundation still remains to be seen, though, so perhaps it would be better to avoid passing judgment for now.

Nikon D3200 officially announced: 24.2-megapixels, 3-inch screen, 1080p video at 30fps, all for $699

Today, Nikon officially announced their latest entry-level DSLR camera in the form of the Nikon D3200, which as the name suggests is the clear successor to 2010′s very popular Nikon D3100. What makes this camera worth upgrading to? Well, if you just broke the bank on a new D3100, you may or may not be in the mood for a new camera-related purchase. In any case, the Nikon D3200 does introduce several improvements over its predecessor, namely a 24.2-megapixel sensor that can shoot 4 continuous frames per second and record 1080p video at 30fps or 720p video at 60fps. The D3200 also boasts a native ISO range of up to 6400 and features a 921k dot 3-inch LCD screen. Connectivity options include USB and HDMI (type-C), and the standard battery is rated to last for 540 shots (if half of those are taken with flash). Those who consider themselves to be early adopters are no doubt thrilled about what’s been written here so far. And that’s not the end of it. Here’s something that’s going to set the Nikon D3200 apart from the competition: Android-device integration.

Nikon starts recalling certain battery models due to electrical issues

If you have an EN-EL15 lithium-ion battery from Nikon in your hands, drop it quickly, for you don’t want to suffer the consequences of a possible short-circuit malfunction. Users of the Nikon D800, D800E, D7000, or Nikon 1 V1 advanced camera model stand to get affected by this problem, and those who happen to have purchased a stand-alone model should also be wary. Fortunately, Nikon has already started recalling EN-EL15 lithium-ion batteries in order to protect its users from harm. To find out whether or not you have a defective battery unit in your hands, take a look at the serial number and look for the ninth digit on it. If it’s either an E or an F, then you need to get in touch with Nikon to return it as soon as possible. You wouldn’t want to have to deal with a burning or exploding rechargeable battery, do you?
