BQ







How already announced in December, the Spanish BQ be the first company to offer a terminal with the new Ubuntu Touch and ahead of the Chinese Meizu had also promised a special edition of Meizu MX4 with this software. The date you can see first-hand the terminal has just been announced on 24 February.


 Although Canonical, responsible for the development of Ubuntu Touch operating system, had signed with fanfare an agreement with Meizu, the “fucking spaniards” BQ, alluding to its original television campaign directed by Alex de la Iglesia, retakes the front. While the Chinese company has not yet moved beyond record announcement that there will be a Meizu MX4 with this software, BQ show us the February 24 as is their first handset with Ubuntu Touch.

 Although the model is specified in the notice, last April was unveiled that worked on a variant of BQ Aquaris E4.5 with this operating system, and you can discuss any specs on this link and that will not change rather than the software that manages them. Among them we can highlight its 4.5-inch screen, which unlike MX4 which is FullHD, the Spanish model, has qHD (540 x 960 pixels), quad-core processor MediaTek at 1.3 Ghz, 8 GB storage space, 1GB of RAM and 2,150 mAh battery with an attractive price of 149 euros, which will have to see if it holds.


  Thus, those interested in the proposal of Canonical are in luck, though yet to meet official release date and price of this new version of the smartphone BQ Aquaris E4.5. Yes, the commercial version of Ubuntu Touch already indicated that it will be different from that currently you can download, and it takes almost a year available, and is aimed at developers to prepare their applications for the launch of the first and terminals, can be secured, will arrive in 2015.

LG G Flex with 6 inch curved display coming to India in February 2014

LG announced in New Delhi on Wednesday that its much-anticipated curved display smartphone, the G Flex, will be available in India in February 2014. The South Korean manufacturer did not reveal the India pricing of the G Flex however, though Amit Gujral, general manager at LG Electronics, said the phone can be expected to be priced between Rs. 60,000 and Rs. 65,000.

The Android 4.2.2 Jelly Bean-based G Flex is powered by a quad-core 2.26GHz Snapdragon 800 (MSM8974) processor with an Adreno 330 GPU, and 2GB of RAM. It features a 13-megapixel rear camera, and a 2.1-megapixel front-facing camera. The G Flex is powered by a 3,500mAh battery, weighs 177 grams, and is 7.9mm at its thinnest, while being 8.7mm at its thickest.

As for the 6-inch curved display, LG has used a curved OLED panel, which is also built on plastic substrates instead of glass, supposedly giving the phone better durability. The display features Real RGB technology to provide all three sub-pixels in one pixel, thereby making it "brighter and more precise."

LG has also included a new self-healing coating on the back cover, an elastic coating that supposedly has the ability to "recover from the daily wear-and-tear scratches and nicks that un-cased smartphones are likely to receive." The LG G Flexs self-healing capabilities have also been creating a buzz worldwide.

Apart from the Rear Keys introduced with the G2, the LG G Flex also incorporates the some new user interface features, such as QTheater for quick access to photos, videos and YouTube from the lock screen; Dual Window for multitasking with two windows; Swing Lockscreen for a dynamic lockscreen image based on the way the phones held; as well as three Rear Key LED indicators - Face Detection, Camera Timer and Urgent Call Alert.

LG launched its first curved display smartphone, the G Flex in October this year with much fanfare, and it was rolled out only in South Korea initially. Recently, the company announced that the LG G Flex was ready for a global roll-out, starting with Singapore and Hong Kong.
