Asus Zenfone Zoom and Nokia 1020 are 2 smartphones which focus on one specific spec – camera feature. They just not focus on camera, but the Zoom on that camera.

Nokia 1020 vs Asus Zenfone Zoom: camera feature

What comes first to our minds about these two phones is their cameras, or more exactly their abilities to zoom. But they’re totally different. The Nokia 1020 launched in 2013 has a 3x zoom, thanks to its underlying 41 MP sensor. And the Zenfone Zoom goes to another direction with 13-megapixel sensor with 3x Optical Zoom. Despite the similar camera design, the technologies inside are very different. While the Zenfone Zoom has a 10-element optical system with 45º reflectors and zooming lenses, Nokia 1020 uses digital crop zoom, mart-cropping down to 1:1 (at 5MP).

With the others specs, Zenfone Zoom seems to be more standout than Nokia 1020 on the display size, the battery life, and front – facing camera. The display size is 5.5 inches on the Zenfone Zoom, and 4.5 inches on 1020. While Zenfone Zoom is said to featured 3000 mAh, and Nokia 1020 just has 2000 mAh capacity. Zenfone will give you a better selfie with 5 megapixels on the front camera. While on 1020, it’s 1.2 megapixels. But in the exchange, 1020 is working Qualcomm Snapdragon S4 Plus MSM8960 chip set, Zenfone is on Intel chip set.

Both phones have a different way to zoom. Hardware optical zoom or digital software zoom? Well, it all depends on your crucial interests, on what type of pictures you want to take. If you’re a landscape lover, Zenfone Zoom is a proper choice with the ability to zoom into with full resolution, while the Nokia 1020 is considered as a jack of all trades.

Nokia 1020 vs Asus Zenfone Zoom: it all come down to price.

If your’e looking for the smartphone with the qualified ability to zoom, these two phones surely will be the “top of mind”. With the price of $525, you can have a  premium Zenphone Zoom. But if you want a phone which is more affordable, Nokia 1020 which has price $155 definitely is the better choice for you.

Chinese smartphones are developing real fast, but of course other non-Chinese handsets are also doing well. Check out the following new models from big brands outside of China now!

1 + 2. BlackBerry Hamburg and Rome

After BlackBerry Priv, things seem much better for the company. Perhaps that is why they have said goodbye to BlackBerry OS and decided to continue with more Android smartphones. Specifically, according to the latest news, there will be two BlackBerry devices coming in late 2016 coded as Hamburg and Rome, and they both will run on Android OS.

As for the first phone, its leaked picture from BerryLink has been spotted recently, showing a full-size touchscreen yet no physical keyboard usually seen on BlackBerry phones. Though, some others think that it may be hidden under the screen like the Priv. Despite no words made for BlackBerry Hamburg specs, it is said to cost less than $400, so we wonder whether it’s a mid-ranger or a flagship. In terms of BlackBerry Rome, it does show up with a physical keyboard and look pretty similar to BlackBerry Passport but more rectangular. Like its sibling, BlackBerry Rome specs have not been unveiled yet. Hopefully more information about them will come this month!

A teenage boy in India has just tragically died, after shooting himself with a gun while attempting to take a selfie…

In the past three years, India accounted for nearly 40% of all selfie related death worldwide, according to recent statistics by CNN. 19 out of all 49 selfie related death worldwide, happened in India.

Ramandeep Singh, just 15 years old, died Sunday in Ludhiana hospital after shooting himself in the head with his dad’s gun. Singh pointed a .32 bore to his head, while trying to take a selfie with this phone. According to Pathankot Deputy Superintendent of Police Manoj Kumar, thats when the gun went off.

The bullet was still stuck in Singh’s head when he was taken to the hospital, where he died shortly after. The gun belonged to Sing’s father, who is a property dealer in India.

No Selfie Zones in Mumbai

The police force in Mumbai is reacting to the number of selfie death in india, by setting up no selfie zones in february. Those no selfie Zones are e.g areas without barriers close to waterways among others. Its quite a sad state of affairs, dont you think?

We have some bad news for Nokia Fans worldwide. Nokia will need to save more then $1 billion in 2016 and to reach this goal Nokia will cut massively into their worldwide workforce…

Recently Nokia finalized their Merger with Alcatel-Lucent SA. Following the Nokia 2016 Merger, Nokia CEO Rajeev Suri announced end of last year the need to reduce Nokia’s yearly cost by 900 Million Euro, or 1 Billion USD per year. Mostly Nokia will reduce overlapping products, services and sales positions after paying $18 Billion for Alcatel. According to people familiar with the plan Nokia plans to let go off 10-15000 people, out of 104.000. That is a very significant staff reduction of nearly 15%.

Most of the Jobs will be cut in Europe, with Nokia Finland and Nokia Germany taking the major cuts. France will keep most of their jobs, due to prior Nokia promises. “This was a match between France and Finland,” said Pertti Porokari, head of the Union of Professional Engineers in Finland and “Finland lost.”
Back in 2000 Nokia Finland had 24000 people when they were dominating the Global Smartphone Market. This number has dropped to 7000 after the Microsoft deal and will drop further now.

The reductions are aimed at helping Nokia 2016 to cope with a challenging business environment in 2016 and intense competition from China’s Huawei Technologies Co. Wireless Carriers worldwide are decreasing spend in 4G Technology, the main business of Nokia-Alcatel. Most of the Jobs will be cut in Europe, with Finland, Germany and France taking the major hit.

Nokia Comeback to Gadgets in 2016?

The only bright light in this situation if there can be any, is that Nokia might be looking to further grow in other areas out side network technology. Nokia recently bought healthcare manufacturer Withings and might even make a comback to Nokia Phones in 2016 to cash in on their brand value. Source Bloomberg

The flagship duo Samsung Galaxy S7 and S7 edge were launched not long ago and naturally, we are looking for the next generation – Samsung Galaxy S8. Today, we would like to introduce its gorgeous edge version to you…

Samsung Galaxy S8 edge design – What can be better than this?

The Samsung Galaxy S8 edge we are looking at is a masterpiece made by Steel Drake – a designer. Obviously, it still inherits the signature curved display of the Samsung Galaxy edge series. Though, in general, the whole handset seems to carry a totally different appearance which attracts us immediately. More interestingly, the top and bottom’s areas of the front screen are narrowed down, saving more space than many phones nowadays.

Additionally, S8 edge will measure 141mm x 72mm x 6.8mm, according to the designer. That can be a perfect thickness for a flagship. On the back, there is a “galaxy” logo placed under the main camera perhaps in order to represent this smartphone brand of Samsung. Yet, it is kind of… strange, to be honest. What do you think?

Despite showing people a wonder S8 edge machine, Mr. Drake did not mention Samsung Galaxy S8 edge specs. Anyhow, to meet consumers’ demands developing day by day, we guess the device will sport 6GB RAM, 256GB ROM, a 4K screen, an at least 4,000mAh battery, Android N OS, and a fantastic combo of shooters, say, like 21MP sensor on the rear and 13MP one on the front.

Samsung Galaxy S8 edge price and availability

Since the S7 model was just released not long ago, the company won’t rush into debuting another beast phone that soon. While they are taking their time preparing everything, hopefully this design will be considered carefully. As for Samsung Galaxy S8 edge price, we predict it can cost around $950.
