While Samsung, Sony Ericsson, HTC and others have announced several new models, Nokia has assisted passive to show at Mobile World Congress 2010. Quite bizarre, the Finns have not even come with a new phone. Instead they came with a promise: cheap smartphones.

Those from Nokia, by Lee Williams, head of the Symbian Foundation, I promise that will get the smartphone market, which will cost only 100 euros. These devices will run Symbian ^ 3.

More information was not made public. Only that will be more such terminals and will be released even this year.

Toshiba K01 is a fresh smartphone announced at the Mobile World Congress. Although there was some intense media coverage, we can easily describe, without a wealth of details, to understand where it fits: Toshiba TG01 imagine a QWERTY keyboard. Automatically, this implementation makes the Toshiba K01 have another type of construction (slider) and is thicker (12.9 mm to 9.9 mm).

Technical facilities are similar, except the screen is capacitive (TG01 has a resistive touchscreen). Recall: Snapdragon 1 GHz processor, 256 MB RAM, HSDPA, Wi-Fi, GPS, 3.15 MP camera, Windows Mobile 6.5 Professional OS and 1000 mAh battery. Company representatives have not yet disclosed the date on which Toshiba K01 will become available or the price.

Samsung launches mobile phone Wave, the first of its kind to use mobile operating system Bada. The presented before the start of Mobile World Congress has a new 3.0 TouchWiz interface, which favors an easier handling of widgets.

Mobile terminal is that users of social networking, like Facebook or Twitter, providing a social hub linking contacts come from similar sources.

There are only a few days until the opening of Mobile World Congress 2010 trade fair (15 to 18 February, Barcelona) – the largest event dedicated to mobile telephony and communications. This year, Global Mobile Awards ceremony (the equivalent of the Oscars, but in mobile communications), we find among others that is in the opinion of specialists the best phone released in 2009. Category has five nominees that we present below.

Blackberry Bold 9700

Redoubtable smartphone is receiving a processor clocked at 624 MHz, 256 MB RAM and OS BlackBerry OS 5.0. On the connectivity offers a complete support, consisting of HSDPA, Wi-Fi and Bluetooth 2.1 A2DP. Auxiliary branches are the integrated GPS receiver (plus maps BlackBerry Maps) and 3.15 MP camera with autofocus. BlackBerry Bold 9700 ensures a quick handling, thanks to full-QWERTY keyboard and optical touchpad navigation.

The screen measures 2.44 inches and has a resolution of 480 x 360 pixels, thereby overcoming the main competitor of the business category – the Nokia E72. Moreover, E72 is lower and in terms of speed (128 MB RAM, Bold 9700 comes with 256 MB). Sure, the Symbian operating system is more popular and there are many applications for it, so a significant proportion of users would opt for Finnish smartphone instead of Canadian. Therefore, our alternative proposal is the Nokia E72. I believe it can be used more efficiently in terms of software.

Samsung S5230 Star

Can hardly be explained by the presence of this terminal in the list of nominations. As it were dozens of models from different manufacturers and specifications are disappointing: resistive touch screen (there are similar models but with screen capacitance), Lisp 3G/HSDPA and Wi-Fi connections, missing GPS module. Neither the multimedia highlights not too much: 3.15 MP camera without autofocus, QVGA @ 15 fps video recording and Sony’s proprietary interface for connecting headphones.
