Quad-core Motorola ATRIX 3 leaked with 3300mAh battery
By Daniel Bader on February 17, 2012 at 9:07am in Mobile News
This one could go either way, but I’m inclined to believe it based on Motorola’s history. A leaked shot of a device has leaked that purports to be the ATRIX 3, complete with a 4.3-inch 720p screen, quad-core Tegra 3 processor, 2GB RAM and a whopping 3300mAh battery.
Also note that the device in question does not have any capacitive buttons up front, which jibes with the previous render of Motorola’s Medfield-powered handset. And, since it’s about to be purchased by Google, it would make sense that future handsets would eschew those buttons for the Google-endorsed on-screen variety.
Apparently the camera has received a bump to 10MP with dual LED flashes, but we can’t see around back to confirm. The device, despite its larger size, definitely looks like it could be a member of the ATRIX family, though Canadians didn’t get a chance to purchase the unremarkable ATRIX 2. We took a look at the original a few months ago to see how it’s held up over time.

It's a pretty interesting moment, where the smartphone (Android phone) evolution kind of slowed down. Manufacturers are struggling to offer new features that would be significant enough to make you upgrade. The new Xperia S that was released not long ago is not really much of an improvement over the Galaxy S2, and on a few fields it's not even as good. To me it's not better than the Arc, because it's thicker and the design is inferior. Also, it comes with silly limitations.
I grew to really like my Xperia Arc and I'm not going to switch to a phone with an even bigger screen, faster quad core processor etc, it's not going to convince me because as far as screen size is concerned my Arc is as huge as I'd posibly want my phone to be and I have NEVER thought that I might need more processing power, and I have a 1ghz single core processor working with a really well optimized software (better browser/UI/script scores than much faster phones from the competition). I have never experienced a lag or a slowdown. It's super fast to me and reasonably thinking a 1ghz ARM processor is a freaking beast for what it powers. Benchmark scores of "super-awesome 8core 3ghz CPUs" are not going to convince me to switch too, while they make for a decentr marketing slogan I think people begin to think that it's bullshit too.
At this point I will only switch if a phone is "revolutionary" in different ways that manufacturers haven't been focusing on - better battery life, minimizing the bezel around the screen and keeping the phone as slim as possible. I think manufacturers are aware of the fact that they have to come up with something new now, they aren't sure what it is and how to introduce it. I'm pretty sure that instead of giving me what I want they are thinking how to make me want something strange now. I really dislike that mechanism sometimes.
Nokia Windows Phones are REALLY bad, but they put huge amounts of marketing money to make them sell.
Lumia 800 and 900 appear to be okay but they are still FAR from being on par with the first Galaxy S (all around). Some people like their design but that's about it. Really poor battery lives, audio quality, not great cameras and displays. Now mid-end Nokia WP devices like the 710 are just ridiculously bad.
And if it comes to new iOS devices there's nothing new. Iphone 4S is basically Apple's Galaxy S2, though technologically a bit more outdated.
I'm curious about the new Ipad though. It should be out in about 2 months. According to most rumors it won't have anything worth switching to. Some website said that it's not going to look too different compared to the Ipad 2 other than the fact that it's supposed to be 1mm thicker, that they are switching to a Sharp display technology (only to increase the pixel density) which is rather unpleasant to look at compared to LG's custom IPS that they have been always using, which is what gave that special Applish feel and that it will pack a quad core which I think is not necessary again.

You hipster, you.
The Galaxy S2 is still the best phone around, so on one hand I agree with you. But on the other, it has been around for less than a year. My phone is super fast on ICS, and is 2 years old. So I am happy. I would like to see what the galaxy S3 brings, as I am due an upgrade soon. And it's rude to turn down a free phone.

The Ville is powered by the S4 which (with only 2 cores) is faster than the Tegra 3 and it's said to pack an Amoled screen too which is far above a casual S-LCD.
Tegra 3's performance feels about the same as Galaxy S2's Exynos 4210. The real life difference is about 10-20% and Exynos is often faster (like in Browsers, also Tegra's more complex architecture is troublesome which might result in visible lag and "singularities" like audio noises while switching between the helper core and the remaining 4 cores as it requires a sudden, significant energy boost).
So I can already bet that the Galaxy S2 packs a superior screen, camera and audio too.
The S4 is all around faster than the Exynos by about 20-30% and apart from that the Ville comes with specs more similar to the original Galaxy S2, at least as far as the screen is concerned, because we can assume shitty audio (beats) and poor cameras (from their Taiwanese parners).
But it looks nice with the slim aluminum cover and might be a good alternative for the Galaxy S2. It's basically what the Xperia S is, but from HTC.

Awesome news. It's confirmed that Panasonic will enter the European market with their Android smarphones. This is the first one:
High resolution 4,3 inch AMOLED screen and it'll be water-proof while being rather thin. The design is neat, a bit strange but I like it.
I really hope that the back cover render is outdated, that they decided to add the camera flash. And cosidering that they're famous for decent point-and-shoot cameras I hope the camera quality will be good.
