Buyers pining for the Samsung Galaxy S II handset obtained great and undesirable news, depending on their carrier of alternative. Even though designs of this common and leading-offering smartphone are anticipated to see AT&T, Sprint and T-Mobile during a item kick off next week, Verizon this week confirmed it would not be carrying the Galaxy S II. Instead, the business stated it had a sturdy lineup already and pointed to the LTE-outfitted Droid Charge as an option.

Verizon seems to want a lot more handsets that make use of its subsequent generation LTE data network understandable right after investing billions on the upgrade which not only presents more quickly speeds, but can aid decrease any congestion on the company’s current 3G network. Galaxy S II followers shouldn’t be as well upset although: Samsung is also anticipated to announce an LTE model of the Galaxy S II at following month’s IFA event in Berlin. That model is slated to have a more substantial exhibit, faster processor and increased capability battery, so may be well worth the wait.
Entrepreneurs of Sony Ericsson Android phones are utilised to waiting, but for software updates more than handsets. In the beginning acknowledged for becoming gradual to provide Android updates, the organization seems to be enhancing its reaction to Google’s Android improvements and this week stated all 2011 Xperia smartphones would get Android two.3.4 starting in October. Despite the fact that the software program is mainly a maintenance release, it does bring help for Google Discuss video calls, deep Facebook integration, assist for USB units and a new three-D panoramic picture capture function.
Android entrepreneurs really do not require a Sony Ericsson telephone for panoramic shots, although many makers have built such features in to their substantial-finish smartphones. Not everybody has the hardware to manage panoramic pic, nevertheless, as the procedure to stitch frames with each other can be processor-intensive. A new Android software in beta named 360 aims to alter that.
I took 360 for a spin and located that it generates sweeping photos in a relatively modest volume of time. I didn’t have a low-stop Android handset to test the application, but the folks at TeliportMe, which developed the computer software, told me that it is made for phones with meager hardware specs. The computer software also provides a social component, making it possible for photos to be shared via Facebook, Twitter, or by way of a website particular to the software.
