Google released the latest version of its mobile operating system, Android 4.1 Jelly Bean, about two months ago. Since then, Jelly Bean has become increasingly popular and has come to be present in a large number of devices. While Gingerbread is still the most widely used version of Android, the 4.1 is rapidly gaining ground.
When compared with Ice Cream Sandwich, Jelly Bean growth has been much faster, because in two months has managed to be present in 1.47% of the devices, while version 4.0 took three months to reach 1 , 54%.
It is hoped that the brand of Jelly Bean increase further as manufacturers begin to launch more phones with the new OS.
Do you have a device that runs on Android 4.1?

For now, the company Apple has not opened his mouth about it, ie never claimed to be developing this tablet. But, as we know, Apple is no longer able to protect its secrets as it was before, and that in fact many of the specifications of the iPhone 5 were leaked a couple of months before the official launch, which already makes a week.

The new images reveal the mini iPad measuring 7.8 inches, has a connector Lightning like the new iPhone and new iPods and also includes volume buttons on the side, not to mention the classic start button. The back cover seems to be made of aluminum.

In some ways, reminiscent to iPad that we all know, the only thing that is obviously smaller. Hopefully soon we will have some other developments.

Handheld Nautiz X1, the world's strongest smartphone

If you are unlucky enough that your smartphone you drop frequently, then chances are you've had to change phone a couple of times. Unfortunately, most of the smartphones on the market are not too tough, and while the high end usually very well equipped as far as specifications are concerned, a simple fall can eliminate them.
Obviously that is not the case of the new Handheld Nautiz X1, which is reportedly the world's strongest smartphone. This is probably true as it meets military standards even with regard to drops, extreme temperatures and humidity. Of course there are other smartphones resistant, but none has come to meet the standards achieved by the Nautiz X1.
But the story does not end here, as the Nautiz X1 is no slouch when it comes to technology concerns. The device features a 4-inch WVGA screen, runs with a 1GHz processor, has a 5 megapixel camera and 2GB of internal memory, which makes it all fall into the category of midrange smartphones. According to the manufacturing company, Handheld, Android 4.0 can run with no problems, which is good news.
The launch of the terminal is expected by January 2013 and can now be pre-ordered for $ 900.

LG Optimus G: the new supersmartphone is officially

http://i.imgur.com/qZYJV.jpg

Watch Samsung and Apple , it seems that in the coming months will have more competition from LG, as the manufacturer introduced yesterday we regard as your best mobile to date, a supersmartphone we saw here earlier and called LG Optimus G . This small 4.7 inch really is a beast and can, without problems, to rival even the Galaxy S3.
Under its cover, the Optimus G carries a powerful Snapdragon S4 Pro 1.5GHz quad-core, which as stated above is Krait architecture and is above even S3 processor. To make things more interesting, LG has decided to place you 2GB of RAM to your new baby and a powerful 13-megapixel camera, not to mention the presence of Android 4.0. Why was not included Jelly Bean? Perhaps LG started designing with Ice Cream Sandwich in mind and thought it was not worth it to start from scratch again when Android 4.1 was released.
But it does not end here, as the LG Optimus G has also a 1.3 megapixel front camera also has Bluetooth 4.0, Wi-Fi, LTE, USB 2.0 , A-GPS, MHL, DLNA, NFC, 2100mAh battery and WXGA screen is a 4.7-inch True HD with 1280 × 768 pixels and features 32GB of memory.
The phone will be launched next week in Korea, which cost about $ 900 without a contract. Probably the rest of the world will receive the device shortly thereafter.
What do you think of the new smartphone from LG?

So will the Samsung Galaxy Nexus 2?

http://i.imgur.com/IqR0H.jpg

When there is a rumor about a Nexus device appears to spread more quickly than normal. Some recent reports on the Samsung Galaxy Nexus 2, also called Galaxy Premier, talk about some of the specifications of the device.
Nothing has been confirmed yet, but it is said that the future will have a Nexus 2 ARM 11 processor and a screen resolution of 1280 × 720 pixels. Yes, the processor would be very outdated and I really very surprised to see a modern mobile phone that incorporates such antiquity, and surprised me more coming from Samsung and Google . Maybe a A9 dual-core Snapdragon 1.5GHz or quad core would be a safer bet, right?
I suggest you do not do too much attention to this rumor and better be attentive to others who may be a bit more credible.

A GoPro survives a drop of more than 12,500 feet

http://i.imgur.com/P9MWt.jpg

All know that GoPro camcorders are very strong, but sometimes it seems that this resistance had no limits. A group of paratroopers jumped from a plane at about 12,500 feet high, is about 3800 meters, and one of them had the unfortunate experience of having your camera came loose as he jumped. Is it broken? Of course not just been falling for a couple of minutes, when "landed" Landfall recorded some of the paratroopers and was later found by one of the companions of the owner, named Lucas Damm.


Some say it is simply a commercial to promote the camera, but the video owner denies that.
What do you think?
