RIM Publishes Display Specs, Simulators for Bold 9790, Curve 9380

You are in a BlackBerry Post

Last month, we saw two unreleased BlackBerry handsets show up in the BlackBerry App World developer portal. The Bold 9790 and Curve 9380 have yet to be formally announced by RIM, even though we've been able to learn a good deal about what to expect from them. Today, RIM posted some additional specs for the pair on its Inside BlackBerry Developer's Blog.

It's unusual for unannounced smartphones to be so casually referred-to by their manufacturers, but apparently RIM has no problem letting people know about this pair. This time around, it wanted to alert developers to the display characteristics of the phones, including screen size and pixel density. The company has also updated its simulation tools to support these two models.

Both BlackBerrys share a 360 x 480 resolution, but their differing display sizes result in a big swing in pixel density, from 189ppi with the Curve 9380 up to 245ppi on the Bold 9790 with its 2.44-inch screen.

The 9790 is more or less Bold 9900 hardware, supposed to include a 1.2GHz CPU and NFC support. The 9380 goes the full-touch route, having no hardware QWERTY keyboard (and explaining the need for a larger display), and likely containing an 800MHz chip.

Motorola Droid RAZR Hardware Specs Outed?

You are in an Android Post

It's looking very likely now that the Motorola Spyder/Droid HD is going to be released as the Droid RAZR. We've also been hearing plenty of comparisons between the RAZR and Samsung's Nexus Prime, also expected to be coming to Verizon; both handsets are supposed to be quite high-end, and rumors suggest they'll be directly competing against each other for the attention of Verizon's subscribers. Today we begin to get a picture of just how the RAZR will line-up on a hardware level, with the purported leak of some of the phone's specs.

The source behind this information isn't named, but BGR seems quite confident that the figures are correct; keep in mind, though, that none of this is official. Supposedly, the Droid RAZR will have a 1.2GHz dual-core processor and one gigabyte of RAM. We had heard that 1.2GHz figure before, compared against a 1.5GHz version of the RAZR from earlier in its development. The RAZR is supposed to feature a 4.3-inch display, covered by Gorilla Glass.

Sadly, we don't have an exact measurement for what could be the most interesting part of these specs, the news that the RAZR could be thinner than the latest iPhone. Not just thinner, though, but reportedly faster, too. Despite its svelte construction, the RAZR may also feature an LTE radio for Verizon 4G. Hopefully, we'll be getting a complete run-down on the RAZR's capabilities next week at Motorola's Tuesday event.

Nokia 710 Specs Leaked, But What Is It?

You are in a Windows Phone Post

A new Nokia smartphone was recently added to Nokia's developer site, showing off a handful of tech specs. The data has since been withdrawn, but what was posted earlier paints the start of a picture for us, leaving us to wonder just what kind of smartphone the 710 might be.

Nokia listed the handset as running a 2008 Maemo tablet OS, which just sounds flat-out wrong. While that spec is clearly suspect, the rest make a lot of sense. They describe a smartphone with a 1.4GHz processor, a 3.7-inch 800x480 display, 8GB of flash storage, and 512MB of RAM. If that sounds like a Windows Phone handset to you, you're not alone, but might it be a higher-end Symbian Belle handset, instead?

We went looking around for more traces of that 710 model number, and sure enough, the latest stats over at Occasional Gamer reveal a Windows Phone 7 device self-identifying as the Nokia 710, connecting to the server twice.

This could end up being one of the more affordable WP7 phones we've heard Nokia is interested in producing. We hope that not all of these posted specs check out, though, because if the 710 ships with an 820mAh battery as described here, you could end up leaving it plugged-in to charge more often than not.

Leaked HTC Vigor Media Files Help Confirm Specs, Clear-Up Rumors

You are in an Android Post

Our understanding of the HTC Vigor had been shaping-up nicely as of last week; rumors, information gleamed from its FCC paperwork, and the press shots we uncovered were starting to paint a complete picture of the handset. Then we were introduced to a purportedly leaked Verizon screenshot, indicating that the phone would become the Droid Incredible HD, instead, and cast doubt on the phone's supposedly-720p display. Today a host of media files for the Vigor has been distributed online, and there are a few tidbits inside that may help clear up this confusion.

For one, there's the inclusion of wallpaper images at 1440 x 1280, or exactly two 720p screens - not something we'd expect added to a phone with only a WVGA display. That gives us some peace of mind, since we're really excited about all the 720p displays that are about to hit the smartphone market. The phone's LTE capabilities were essentially a lock, having been confirmed in FCC documentation, but a boot logo here also confirms the feature, along with the Beats audio partnership.

Furthermore, the boot animations don't reinforce the idea that the Vigor could arrive as the Droid Incredible HD, without the appearance of an iconic Droid "red eye".

Samsung SHV-E120L Specs Leaked, 4.7-Inch HD Screen In

You are in an Android Post

The Samsung SHV-E120L first caught our eye when results popped up on NenaMark. At that time, we only knew that it was powered by a 1.5GHz Qualcomm Snapdragon CPU, Adreno 220 GPU and it hat a WXGA 768 x 1280 screen running Android 2.3.5 Gingerbread. Now the full specs are in, as you can see above.

The missing specs reveal an eight-megapixel main camera, two-megapixel webcam, 1GB of RAM, 16GB of Internal Memory, LTE-capable radio, WiFi b/g/n, NFC, GPS, Bluetooth 3.0 and an 1,850mAh battery. Looks like it will be directly competing with the LG LU6200 that sports roughly the same internals, with less internal storage and a slightly smaller screen.

LG Optimus EX Press Renders and Specs Leak

You are in an Android Post

Just the other day we've seen the LG Optimus EX for Korea's SK Telecom being leaked with some specs and today we've got some press renders with a full breakdown of the phone's internals. The Optimus EX weighs only 127 grams and measures 118.0 x 63.4 x 9.65 millimeters.

Running Google Android 2.3 Gingerbread, the device is powered by a 1.2GHz NVIDIA Tegra 2 processor aided by the ULP GeForce (AP25) GPU. It packs a four-inch WVGA IPS 700-nit NOVA display, five-megapixel auto-focus camera sans flash, but with 1080p video recording capability, 1GB of RAM, 8GB of ROM, microSD card slot with support for additional 32GB, all the usual sensors and a 1,500mAh battery. It will come to SK Telecom in Korea in two color flavors: Black & Sliver plus White & Champagne Gold. We hope a variant will be released in the U.S. and internationally as well.
