Taking the mundane into the realms of the outstanding, Samsung presents the Galaxy Note 3, a revolution in technology set in the palm of the hand. Beauty meets utility in this device that brings big changes to small workings of your life.

Dynamic and modern-looking, the Galaxy Note 3 pulls together content from news, social media and everything else into one easy-on-the-eye My Magazine view.

Taking multitasking to a whole new level, the Multi-Window mode allows you to not just copy and paste from one window to another but also do things like chat with two different people at the same time, play a video while scrolling through the news and even browse the net while checking Facebook on the side. Similarly the Pen Window ensures that you can keep the calculator open in a small window while you are working out a budget for the month.

Intuitive to the extent of being almost magical, the device surprises you with its efficiency. Wave your hand over the device and get things done in a jiffy - the Samsung Note 3 comes with Air Gesture and Air View support that ensure that actions are made simpler and more effective, especially when you have to check for specific apps among dozens and operate hands free.

The Action Memo that recognizes handwriting and converts it into actionable links, alarms and such is one feature you could get used to.

With Image Stabilization, one of the first of its kind on such devices, the pictures you take on the Note 3 are ones that will be crisp and sharp, discounting shaky hands or less than perfect conditions.

The secondary camera does as much justice to your selfies and video chats with 2 megapixels at your disposal that comes with smart stabilization. With dual camera support, you can use both the cameras simultaneously when you take a picture, record or video call a loved one. What’s more, the Note 3 captures precious moments in full HD video and plays it back for you to relive life the way it is meant to be.

A powerful Octa core processor packed with all the strength of 1.9 Ghz Big-Core Quad and 1.3 Ghz Small-Core Quad processors back by 3 GB of RAM help you switch from an intensive gaming session to taking down a simple memo easily with excellent battery and power management.

Asus launched new PadFone Infinity

As expected, Asus launched its new PadFone Infinity in Taipei. The new variant is an improvement over the original one launched earlier this year. Just a few months after the announcement, Asus has changed a few things to make the unique smartphone with a tablet jacket device.

The biggest change in the new version is it is now powered by the latest Qualcomm Snapdragon 800 SoC clocked at 2.2GHz. This should give the device enough processing chops for most functions either in smartphone or tablet mode when compared to the Snapdragon 600 variant.

The stars are slowly aligning for a 6" 1080p Nokia phablet with Snapdragon 800 power. The information is pretty circumstantial, but it's there – in a Bluetooth SIG filing and from data collected by AdDuplex.



AdDuplex collects stats on Windows Phone handsets and found in its logs a few unofficial Nokia devices like the RM-937, RM-927 and RM-940.
