Strange Unknown PDA apeears on ebay!!!

Posted this in the General forum, but thought you guys may be interested as well.
Just noticed this over at Coolsmartphone.com
http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/5-Mega-Pixel-...38331QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem?hash=em300090753602
Appears to be a PDA with a 5MP Camera!!!
Beware though, says it has WM5 on it, however a closer look at the silver model reveals WM2003 and black has WM5.
Not a chance that i'll bid on that.
Any thoughts??
S.K.

It it is even remotely real then it is probably from Japan or Korea or something like that.
Otherwise I would say that it is just a scam. After all, a phone branded as "Pocket PC?" Come on...

Yeah, appearently Chinese OEM manufacturer.....

That PDA is one ugly mothe..........

Thats looks like some Photoshopped SE P910/Samsung love child!

That is a concept from some chinesse ODM from a long time ago circa 2004. I dont think it ever came to market but I remember seeing concept pics of it.

That is definately a Samsung "OK" button.
Googled for it and found something here.

It looks like cheap plastic.

"This Phone is OEM and made by Chinese Factories"

Nobody else notice this gem of a feature listed near the bottom of that auction:

Menstrual Count Yes <--

Are you trying to say that your phone does not have a menstrual count?
Why not??

That my dear fellows is roughly (and if possible) a working Matrix Reloaded Samsung something something something,,,, look for it in the second film,,, they asked Samsung to make a highteck phone that they could market with the film,,, since it fell through the only ones ever made were live dummys used in the movie... (if ya look arounf on fleabay hard enough you can spot them,, dummys in a collectors tin ^_^) from the looks of it someone found out the designs and started tinkering to make a real phone
I dont think it is real though lol

Awful camera quality

Do you guys experience the same ? Pictures are not sharp, colors are mixed up.

only in darker rooms. outside with sun pictures are looking quite well.
look here: http://www.engadget.com/2010/10/29/htc-trophy-review/

Horrible quality.
As usual with HTC... always these "orange-pink blurry" images.
Nothing compared to the great Omnia 7 camera unfortunately.

Quality is indeed very bad:
Here's a picture taken with my Trophy:

You can cleary see the pink/orange circle in the middle.

I hope they put a better camera in this when it comes across the pond to the us. I don't care about mp I want better quality

Yeah camera quality is quite awful. subpar when outside and when inside it's just horrible.
On another note are any of you noticing the 'GSM radio' sounds on video files you've recorded with the device?

i was in quite cloudy conditions and photos still looked good. i think it's just night shots or dark places that it falls over.

Too much noise. They are OK for a low budget phone, but I don't think that the Trophy is low budget (at least I payed more than 200€!)
Thanks for sharing

I'am having the same issue, only outside with clear weather it makes nice pictures. Also the flashlight is horrible, if you try to make a picture of a person it will always look away from the camera

I'm thinking of getting a trophy but I'm really put off by this pinky orange circle issue - does everybody experience this? Is it a hardware issue or could it be fixed by a future update?
Cheers

I have the red colorisation in the centre of the image also, not too fussed as I never use the phone to take pictures I use my Canon D450, if its that important that you need to use the camera for images then you can fix them images in Lightroom.

I got my HTC 7 trophy (australian stock) and think the camera is outstanding. Definitely the best non-iPhone camera phone I've used. Don't understand what all the fuss is about, really.

I have one and the camera is like my old htc p3600 in outsides when I use the flash the quality of the photo is bad with too much noise and blur.
I hope it is a software poblem and MS correct that in a future version!

Xoom's day out! =)

It was a beautiful sunny Saturday in New York City, so I took my Xoom out for a little shooting test to see the camera capabilities. I have to say, I am VERY impressed by its photo/video quality under normal sunlight environment.
And... there are windows for Alexander McQueen's work... my girlfriend's favorite..

Last, a HD video shooting a street magician swallowing the long sword... I think it is real... I can't find the trick, can you? Please let me know

This is a copy of the original post on Opinionated Fool

Very impressive, the xoom picture quality as well as your choice of images.

Nice pictures! And quality!
Can you also post a link to archive with full size images? I think I'm not the only one who will be interested.
Also the swallowing seems real. Unles the sword folds telescopically, but It doesnt seem to.

Thats either a really good slight of hand trick where he swaps the sword or he can really swallow a sword. I watched it three times and the only place where he could have swapped the sword was the point where he points to the other exibit, so I don't know.

Love how he keeps looking at the Xoom in the vid

I never said it was new. I said it was a good comparison that I personally haven't seen before, so I'm assuming other people in the HTC forum haven't either.

Amazing! Pure genius!! Too good to be true!!!

You know what's great about the Internet? People can find something somewhere that proves just about any point they want to make. Whether it's valid or not.
The s/w at the launch event where the pics OP posted were taken was two revisions ago. GSMArena tested with what was shipped out on the review devices when they did their One vs. SGS4 comparison which was the second revision. They posted this along with pics taken with the newest (and shipping) s/w.
Update, April 12: We got our hands on a retail unit of the Galaxy S4. Here are some samples shot with the market-ready Galaxy S4​
Here's the link for those that are objective...
http://www.gsmarena.com/samsung_galaxy_s4-review-914p9.php
Others can just praise and thank OP for his “The One rules them all!!!” post.

This is a bit like arguing which is better a macro lens or a wide angle lens. It's clear the One wins in low light portrait situations and the S4 in daylight landscape like situations. Which is better, depends on the situation. Personally I like cycling and have taken some nice landscapes with my phone because it's easy to carry and you need a phone anyway, so I will miss those pictures but on the other hand I have taken many night shots with my phone too and they are mostly crap but I usually have a camera around then too....
Anyway which one is better depends on your personal use

Phonearena just did a review and the HTC One lost to the Galaxy S4

Picture from AndroidAuthority
(As) Ýou can see the whole Camera Frame with Flash, i'd like to know, how to replace it.
The Camera Hardware itself doesn't have to be replaced, but the Overlay.
View attachment 3177392
So, i'd like to know:
Where to buy the Whole Frame in Original (Maximum) Quality? (Without the camera Hardware itself, only the overlay Frame)
How to Replace it with an old one, without Guarantee or Lifetime Loss of the Device?
If you can, also show me a way, to replace the camera frame
But,
I don't want to Damage the Device. :angel:
And the Device should be the same Quality as before the Operation.
The Camera Frame also must be tight. - As good as a new device out of the Box.
I don't want to force anybody for something, but please try to find links, for multiple Colours of the Camera Frame.
I still don't know, which colour i prefer.
Thank you for Reading this.
[*]Please Help
[*]Thanks in Advance
