Samsung Galaxy Round

Samsung's upcoming curved display smartphone, the Galaxy Round, is most likely an prototypic device with Samsung producing it in very limited quantities, according to the revealed news from web.
 
The Samsung Galaxy Round is a prototype model to showcase and having test curved OLED displays. Samsung has priced the device steeply even in its home market, South Korea, for this very reason, and doesn't have a lot of units to sell. This new phone launching plan, much more like Galaxy Grand or Mega which is hardly found in the markets of southside Korea. For its limited availability, may be one's have to bring this phone from South Korean market with country locked and lagnuage compatibility problems.It has been heard that, Samsung doesn't intend to sell the Galaxy Round outside South Korea. As the publication notes, it's not the first time that Samsung has launched devices with limited availability just to test the markets. It had earlier launched the SCH-W850, to test AMOLED technology, and the Samsung Galaxy S II HD, to test HD AMOLED displays.

Samsung had launched the Galaxy Round, earlier this month. It much seems like a modification of  Galaxy Note smartphone, with a display that curves side-to-side (horizontally). The phone sports a 5.7-inch OLED full-HD display and is powered by a 2.3GHz quad-core Qualcomm Snapdragon 800 processor and 3GB RAM. It sports a 13-megapixel rear camera and a 2-megapixel front facing camera. The phone runs Android 4.3 Jelly Bean. It comes with a 2800mAh battery and offers LTE-A high-speed 4G connectivity.
 
Its key features include a tilt function which allows users to check information such as missed calls and battery life, even when the home screen is off. Users can also scroll through media files by pressing the screen's right or left.
 
To make an equal racetrack with Samsung, LG, is also reportedly working on a curved display smartphone, which has leaked in press renders and also in web. The press renders suggest that LG 'G Flex' smartphone's 6-inch display would be curved from top to bottom,unlike Samsung Galaxy Round's side-to-side curved display. The phone is likely to be launched probably in November or December, though the pricing, hardware specifications and availability details are not known at this point in time.

Again Galaxy Eraa...!!!!


Over the next week, the Samsung Galaxy Note 3 will be released on all major US . On its own, this would be a fairly momentous occasion, the Galaxy Note and Note 2 are two of the best-selling mobile devices ever, but to push us over the edge, Samsung is also releasing the Galaxy Gear smartwatch at the same time. Read on for the Galaxy Note 3 hardware specs, release date, and a hands-on video of the Note 3 and Galaxy Gear smartwatch working in perfect harmony.
The Galaxy Note 3 is mostly an iterative update, with a slightly larger screen (5.7 inches vs. 5.55), a much higher-res display (1920×1080 vs. 1280×720), a lot of software tweaks, and a nice new faux leather back that’s infinitely nicer than the slick plastic on the Note 2. Despite the larger screen, the Note 3 is actually thinner, narrower, and lighter (168 grams vs. 180) than its predecessor , but it’s still much too big to be comfortably held in one hand (unless you have gargantuan hands like me). The Note 3 even has a slightly larger battery (3,200 mAh) than the Note 2 (3,100 mAh). All in all, the Note 3 is a seriously impressive piece of hardware.
 

The Galaxy Note 3 has the dubious luck of being one of the two devices that will bond with the Galaxy Gear Smartwatch( you can say), the other being the Galaxy S4. The hardware specs of the Gear are fairly inconsequential: There’s a poor-quality 1.9-megapixel camera, 4GB of on-board storage, an admittedly sexy 320x240 display, and Bluetooth and NFC connectivity. 


Question is Why a Wristwatch with a mobile Phone...!!!?? Sounds peculiar..??  

If you bring the Galaxy Gear within an inch or two of the Note 3, an NFC connection is made, and a setup wizard pops up on the Note. The Note  downloads some software, pairs with the smartwatch via Bluetooth… and that’s it: You now have a smartwatch. As you can see in the video above, using the Galaxy Gear to make calls is easy enough. I don’t demo it in the video, but you can also use S Voice to make calls and send messages ,but it’s not a completely hands-off experience, requiring you to hit a small button on the Gear, making it somewhat hard to use while walking along.
