Incredible Nex-Gen Android Phones

I had to blog about two of the most incredible new mobile phones that are available to buy now. The first is the aforementioned HTC One X - an amazing device with a feature set that is pretty much untouchable. It has a 4.7 inch screen, 1.5Ghz processor, 8 meg camera, 1080p video recording, photo shooting whilst video recording, Beats Audio, 32gb of storage, Dropbox included and 1gb of RAM. It is also backed up by a pretty slick advertising campaign...this commercial takes my breath away every time I watch it!


The One X is not the only phone to enter the fray however as the much anticipated Samsung Galaxy S3 has also hit shelves. The S3 will look to continue the popularity of the S2 and has a similar aspect to the One X. It has a slgihtly larger 4.8 inch screen but also rocks HD resolutions and video recording, a quad core processor, 8 meg camera, 64 gigs of memory and S-Voice, Samsung's own voice control software amongst   numerous other features...many pretty similar to the One X.



With both phones running their own skin on top of Android 4.0 and having strong market presences already, it will be interesting to see which one comes out on top. The Galaxy range is pretty popular but HTC always make awesome phones so it will be a fun fight and a good time to be an Android user! Hopefully both will sell well...

The Galaxy Nexus lifts off...

Well the rumours have been proven correct for the most part (except the name which is confirmed as the Galaxy Nexus rather than Nexus Prime)...

The newest pure Android phone has been unveiled and looks incredible. The device features Android v4.0 (codenamed Ice Cream Sandwich) and has other nifty features not described in my previous post such as facial recognition software that unlocks your phone, tap-to-share data transferring via Android Beam, a panoramic camera, Google's new social network-focused People app and a barometer (!). It's also tightly integrated with the cloud.

Thankfully many of us running previous editions of Android will also see these benefits as 4.0 is rolled out in the coming months but there is little doubt that the Galaxy Nexus combines the state-of-the-art in terms of Android software development and cutting-edge mobile hardware, leaving its rivals in the shade...it is expected to land in November 2011
