LG GS290 Phone Review – The Latest To Join The Cookie Family

By

In a word or two

The LG GS290 is a super-affordable touchscreen phone, the latest to join the Cookie range.

 

Early Review

The look of the LG GS290 is more sophisticated than its fellow recently-announced LG Cookie handset, the GT350. The frame is less rounded and has a vibrant blue edge that runs around most of the phone – with silver at the bottom – and the home key has a chrome finish. The touch-sensitive screen looks a similar size to the one on the GS290 and we expect it to be a 3 inch touchscreen.

 

Like the GT350, the LG GS290 is a slide-out QWERTY handset. Whether it has four rows of keys too is still to be confirmed but we do know it has been created with social networking in mind so expect apps for popular sites like Twitter and Facebook.

 

 

The GT350 focuses on social networking with an upgraded touchscreen – it is the successor to the KS360 – for responsiveness and enjoyable interaction. You can access social networking sites from the icons or from the shortcut key on the keyboard. All the updates, messages etc associated with these sites are displayed on the home screen so you can respond quickly, and if you enjoy instant messaging, the handset supports Windows Live and Google Talk. We expect to see many of these features on the new GS290.

 

 

LG has said that the GS290 is the most affordable mobile in the Cookie range with a full touchscreen. Most likely, this phone is based on the original KP500 Cookie – a fellow budget touchscreen with a fun interface, 3.2-megapixel camera and media player, which was recently upgraded in the shape of the Cookie Plus.

 

 

The LG GS290 is set to launch and we anticipate details will be released on this handset very soon. The moment we are able to discover more, we’ll let you know here.

Hybrid And Electric Vehicles To Drive Lithium-Ion Battery Market Growth

Driven by plunging prices and accelerating demand from the electric and hybrid automobile market, lithium-ion will emerge as the world’s leading rechargeable battery technology and achieve 350 percent revenue growth from 2010 to 2020, according to a new IHS iSuppli.

The global lithium-ion battery revenue is expected to expand to $53.7 billion in 2020, up from $11.8 billion in 2010, as presented in the figure above. Revenue will rise to $31.4 billion in 2015, allowing lithium-ion to surpass the current dominant rechargeable battery technology, lead acid.

While lithium-ion will find wide usage in mobile electronics products such as cellphones and notebook PCs, usage in cars will fuel the bulk of sales growth.

“Lithium-ion at present is much more expensive than alternative technologies, costing two to three times as much as sodium-sulfur, lead-acid and nickel-metal-hydride rechargeable batteries,” said Satoru Oyama, principal analyst of Japan electronics research for IHS. “However, lithium-ion pricing will decline much more rapidly than the other technologies, coming close to cost parity in 2015, and then becoming the least expensive type of rechargeable battery in 2020. Combined with the inherent advantages of the technology, the increasingly competitive cost of lithium-ion will cause car makers to employ it as their battery technology of choice in future electric and hybrid vehicles.”

One concern regarding the use of first-generation lithium-ion batteries in cars is safety. There can be a risk of fire using existing lithium-ion battery materials due to the high temperatures involved. There have been documented incidents of lithium-ion battery fires in smaller devices, such as PCs and mobile phones. All these must be resolved before this product can go prime time in some new applications.

In addition to 15 Kobo per Second (15K/Sec) on net tariff that is available on the Airtel Big Family package, customers will have the benefit of making free on-net mid-night calls daily; they will get 40 free SMS (s) and receive free data worth 4MB between 12.30am and 4.30am. Customers on the package are required to make one minute of local call between 8am and 12midnight to enjoy the free midnight calls, SMS and data offer.

 

According to Airtel Nigeria’s Chief Operating Officer and Executive Director, Deepak Srivastava, the Airtel Big Family Xtra offer will continue to  give Airtel customers the unique benefits of making calls to all on-net numbers at 15kobo per second and 30 Kobo per second to other networks after the first minute call of the day at 60 Kobo per second.

Srivastava explained that the enhancement of the Big Family package is another eloquent expression of Airtel’s determination to give Nigerians a genuinely innovative, affordable, and significantly value-rich tariff offer that suits their business, family and social needs.

Also, customers can call any Airtel line as many times as possible at the stated rates any day.

New HTC Eternity Windows Phone 7 Leaked – Available In 3Q2011

HTC has been attracting a lot of attention lately with its Sensation and EVO 3D Android smartphones. HTC is one of the companies that has always been keen to back Windows phones but this seemed to have been put on the back burner in 2011 with all of this year’s HTC releases being Android devices. Now details are emerging of a new Windows Phone 7 handset that could add a new lease on life into Microsoft‘s mobile operating system.

 

The HTC Eternity is the first Windows phone from HTC since last year’s batch that included the likes of the Mozart and HD7. Although these were interesting phones when they saw release at the end of 2010 the mobile industry has leaped forward quite a bit with the development of dual core processors. Sadly it seems that the Eternity will not be getting the dual core treatment being lumbered with just a 1.5GHz chip.

 

Still, the Eternity is attracting a lot of attention for its larger screen – rumoured to measure in at 4.7?. Certainly larger phones like the HD7 were great for enjoying video and Xbox LIVE and this could be one of the main attractions of the Eternity. The 4.7? screen is likely to be Super LCD and comes with a WVGA resolution, as this is currently the max setting for WP7.

 

It also appears the Eternity will feature an 8 megapixel camera, and 720p video recording. A 1.3MP front facing camera will also be included, along with DLNA Wi-Fi and 3G. Like the earlier WP7 phones the Eternity will come with 16GB internal storage but no SD card slot.

 

When Windows Phone 7 was first released HTC were one of the companies who produced a few handsets to put it to use. Since then there have not been any new Windows phones with most companies, HTC included, focusing almost entirely on Android. It will still be some time before Nokia gets into the Microsoft swing and even then there is not much hope of the Finnish company offering anything truly breath-taking. So it seems that for the foreseeable future the HTC Eternity will be the most interesting phone on the horizon for Windows Phone 7 fans.

 

The Eternity will be available from Best Mobile Contracts when it is released, probably in Q3 2011.

 

What do you think of the massive device from HTC?  Something you’ll consider purchasing?  Why/why not?
