Acer Iconia Smart - Streak 5 General

Hey people,
Just noticed this on expansys - The Acer Iconia Smart is a 4.8inch screen phone with specs that are better than our Streak. What are your thoughts on this phone - could be a better alternative for the Dell Streak?
Here's the links:

Looks OK, but the lack of a dual core cpu is a bit odd at this stage.

You're right, a dual core cpu is a must nowadays! But since there are no 4.8-5 inches phones at the moment, I am definitely looking forward to the Aconia. In fact, the camera+screen resolution seems to be better than the streak itself - let's hope the OS follows.

It is running on single core not dual core processor & it only got 8gb storage.

[news] Malaka 10" Eclair tablet.

http://phandroid.com/2010/06/10/yet-another-android-tablet-10-inch-malata-smb-a1011/
Watch the video!
They say it will be out in September.
Very nice specs.
Malata’s SMB-A1011 tablet does just that on their extremely attractive offering.
Inside, it sports a Nvidia Tegra 2 dual-core chipset with a 1Ghz ARM Cortex A9 processor completing a very nice circle. It comes with 512MB-1GB of RAM and 512MB-1GB of ROM, with 2GB-32GB if internal storage (there will be several configurations to choose from). It has a 10.1-inch capacitive touchscreen with a resolution of 1024×600.

I do want, but the resolution is a bit low for all that processing power...
PS-it would be shame if they didn't use 2.2...
Please keep the forum clean, this has nothing to do with the Nexus One.

HTC Pyramid next Nexus device?

What do you guys think?
What do I think? I think that will be my next phone. Especially if it's Vanilla.
It looks like a hot device & possible upgrade from the N1 someday! Here's the main thread discussion:

No trackball

Only 768 MB of Ram? Single Core 1.2 GHz?
That's a good upgrade, but not worth all the money for not much of a technology leap.
Maybe if it had 1 GB Ram and a dual core/quad core 1+ GHz processor.

Some sites are reporting dual 1.2GHz processors but at this point it's probably just speculation.
If its a dual core, its mine
My money is on the next Nexus device being made by Motorola.
I hope it's not a pentile display like the Atrix.
I really hope that image is a mock up. It's basically an extended nexus minus the trackball.
it looks nice, but not that sexy
Hot looking phone, not worth the upgrade yet IMO.
dual core and a bigger screen ftw. (hope it's dual core)

I would upgrade just to get a N1 with better/working touch.
That said, I prefer AMOLED.
HTC Pyramid will be first HTC's dual core phone. Looks good IMO
htc always rocks....
great devices
Everyone take a look at the back of it. We don't know if its a mock up picture or not, most likely, though I hope it will be like that when it comes to the states. But again, look at the back of your nexus one, then look at another android phone, then look at the pyramid picture. The google logo is google stand alone, which only dedicates to nexus line. Regular android phones don't have that

You might as well get used it, if my memory serves me correctly no recently released HTC Android device has a trackball. Actually, not just HTC, the trackball is almost non-existant on Android phones now.

It's got a dual-core 1.2 (per core) Snapdragon aka Scorpion. It's the same SoC in the HP TouchPad; better than Tegra 2.
EDIT: It's way WORSE than Tegra 2..... it's a Cortex A8 device, with an underwhelming GPU
HTC Pyramid benchmarks
http://smartphonebenchmarks.com/for...60-smartbench-2011-result-have-been-revealed/
Don't see the point of single-core, sub-1gb-RAM phones in 2011 ... seriously.
Tegra 3 is coming out in august for pads, christmas for phones. Hoping HTC makes a nice Nexus HD or something out of it for the holidays.
- Tegra 3
- 1gb DDR3
- 16-32gb internal
- micro-sd slot
- 3.7-4.0in HD screen
- no keyboard for the love of God
- same build quality as N1 (not some Dollar-store Nexus S plastic plz)
- NFC or not, don't really care since it won't be widely used until like 2014
- Some sort of LED notification area (not necessarily a trackball, but an LED which we can control the same we do now on the N1... it's MUCH NEEDED!)
- this is a personal choice, but the same button placement (BACK - MENU - HOME - SEARCH) would rock ... I know most phones now have the BACK and MENU inversed...
- Dock support would rock too (same 3-pin system, wtv...)
- Most importantly, Vanilla Android. At that point, I'm guessing it will be Ice Cream [Sandwich?] or J...jello? copyright... wtv... something J.
No use buying a single-core phone in 2011 ! stick to the N1 for now...

Wi-Fi version of Galaxy Tab has 32 GB onboard and is only $350 (April 10th)

The cheaper but with more storage version of the wi-fi version will come out on April 10th.
Too bad the 3G version only comes with 16 GB on board storage (the GSM version of course).
Its already out in the uk i was playing with one in PC world or curry's i forget

Where did you see that? There was a wifi only galaxy tab rom which seemed to have the DSP code for OMAP3, but the samsung page says it's a C110:
www . samsung . com/us/mobile/galaxy-tab/GT-P1010CWAXAR-features
Wouldn't think there's much difference in price between a C110 and OMAP3 at this point.

I don't get this. I thought the specs of all 7" Galaxy tabs were 1024x600 with an A8 processor. But the wifi-only version is 800x480 with an omap3630, it appears from looking at the specs at Newegg. I had no idea the versions were so different.
That probably explains the huge difference in price
Sent from my E10i using XDA App
geez, you're better off getting a nook color then. same processor, better screen, no hard menu buttons, and very, very easy to root.
according to samsung's specs it's the same as the 3g versions: http://www.samsung.com/us/mobile/galaxy-tab-wifi-only/GT-P1010CWAXAR-features
The Samsung Homepage states that
Display is 600*1024
Processor is 1GHz A8 Cortex Processor.
I can't imagine them downgrading the Tab Wifi version in such a mayor way...
It's the same as GSM Tab, only without GSM...
It's absolutely not the same as a GSM Tab. I bought one, it's an OMAP3, it's really slow compared to the GSM unit I have. I'm returning it later today.
info
i bought a wifi only version yesterday, the processor is a TI not a hummingbird, but they are both ARM cortex a8 (i think) the screen and resolution are the same, the Graphics chip is indeed a power VR sgx530 instead of the power-VR sgx540 in the GSM version, and possibly there is a difference in the rear camera? not sure only what i heard but im taking it back today because on the box it doesn't say anything about changing the hardware, I'm very disappointed because it would be awesome if they kept the hardware the same but to put different hardware than the 3g version and try to pass it off as the same tablet with wifi only???? SHAME ON YOU SAMSUNG
Some proof via pictures/screenshots would be nice.

just check the specs at newegg. this is damn sad... good thing I bought a used 3G tmo instead.
DISREGARD - FOUND ANSWER
I saw pics online, the wifi tab HAS NO SLOT FOR SIM CARD. No way to make phone calls.
hello all,
i know this is a longshot but can the 'wifi' SGT be flashed for voice calls or is it lacking the hardware? just wondering, might buy one.
Should change the title of this topic. We know the SGT WiFi is *not* 32GB.

The seller seems to specialize in selling generic phones of high quality. There have been 19 sales of this phone since time of posting, 3 comments (none of any interest), and no reviews (although I'm waiting for one)...
Here's the link to buy:

I'd say $240 is a good price for such a high end phone, generic or not it seems cool. I haven't found any reviews or videos of this specific one, but there are reviews on goophones that look the same and have same specs... Those seem to run nicely...
Thanks, but I don't see any deals, and also, you can find it on ebay for the same price, or maybe cheaper.
I actually played with one of these, it would've been pretty awesome and I would've bought it if it ran a stock jelly bean build, instead the os was a poor attempt at looking like iOS.

Probably intensively overclocked. I actually doubt the specs. Editing build.prop is all it takes. All we can rely on is the info of the GPU. They're usually just the typical dual-core MTK6577

Omg. It is an MTK6575 at 1.x ghz and the GPU at xxx mhz. And then they added those two clock speeds up aaand BAM

Goo Phone S4 MAX Important Questions

Hello, I am wanting to purchase this cool phone which features a octa core processor and has 13 MP camera rear and 5mp front facing camera.
It has also got a big touch screen and comes with Android 4.2 installed.
I have some questions regarding this phone before I buy it.
Questions:
- What is the GPU of the phone and how many CORES does it use?
- What is the clock speed of the gpu or each cores and what model is the video chip made from?
- How much video memory does the phone use in it's chip?
- On goo phone's website the price is $240.00 but im not sure if that is the same price in Australia. Is that phone $240 in AUD or is it a USA site instead or is it listed as cheap because it is in china and for Australian people they must use a currency changer?
I want to know what the DPI of the screen is and also I want to know if the phone is water and dust resistant or not.
I REALLY NEED THIS PHONE because it is a very cheap 8 CPU powered phone but I am unsure if $240 AUD is going to be the price for this phone. Has any one bought a model just like this one for the same price but less cpu's say a quad core model but a 8 core model would cost around $400???
Im not sure and that's why I ask here.
HOw about the android operating system? I Know it is 4.2 but is it kitkat or is it upgradable to kitkat?
Would I be able to execute playstation mobile on it? - you don't hve to answere this question but if you know any thing more please tell me
If you're in aus, I'd look at the much nicer Moto G, octa core isn't everything and you're likely to get better performance from the quad core in the G than any Chinese octa core phone.
Sent from my Xperia Z using XDA Premium HD app
Why is 8 core not better then a quad core cortex A7 cpu?
Do you know the video chip of the goophone s4 max? I have purchased it but im not sure what the price will come on my credit card as in AUD that's were worries me that I may be charged more then the amount said on the site's webpage.
If you know more about the goophone s4 max and what I have asked can you please put it here, I DO NOT want any other phone except for the 8 core one because that is definitely faster RIGHT since it has a faster 2.0GHz clock speed and 8 cores means it is faster
