Panasonic introduces their new flagship P81 in India

Last year, we have heard reports about Panasonics plans to shut down their smartphone business for the consumer markets. But, it looks like we were unfortunately wrong on this call, as today this multinational electronics corporation from Japan has unveiled their next generation high-end Android powered handset and the 2014 front runner smartphone for Panasonic in India, dubbed as the new P81.

The new phone from Panasonic is said to be available in India by the third week of this month, coming to the store shelves in Black color option, also packing in a free flip cover and screen protector, slotting in dual-SIM capabilities over HSPA+ and GSM network connections and will be priced at 18990 Indian Rupees, which is about 323 United States Dollars.

So, in term of its internal specifications, the Panasonic P81 tots a True Octa-Core Central Processing Unit, speeding at 1.7GHz, 5.5-inches High Definition IPS panel of 1280 x 720 resolution display, eight gigabytes of internal storage facility (expandable via microSD card slot), one gigabyte of Random Access Memory, 13 megapixels main shooter on the back with LED flash light, capable of capturing 1080p videos at 30 frames-per-second, two megapixels front facing snapper, other major connectivity highlights, a 2,500mAh powered battery and running Androids version 4.2 Jelly Bean out of the box.

HTC M7 next HTC flagship device

Today htcsource.com came up with a nice photo of incoming HTC flagship model - HTC M7.

Source: http://htcsource.com

In a matter of fact, this picture shows not only new, incoming device but also the main screen from HTC Sesne 5.0 UI. Obviously not much can be concluded based only on this photo, but it seems that HTC is following the fashion of angular and edgy graphic elements. The same happened to Microsoft Windows 8 and Windows Phone 8. Personally Im not yet sure if I like it. Actually I find HTC Sense 4+ very good UI and Im not really sure if this direction of squares is good one. Maybe its just a matter of habits and in fact HTC Sense 5.0 will be an improvement over Sense 4+ when it comes to the graphic design.

This angularity concerns the overall design of the device as well. As you can see, HTC M7 is very similar to HTC Butterfly. Corners are even more tightened in HTC M7.

What else is interesting? Look at the capacitive buttons. It seems that home button and multi-tasks button are in reversed order. Isnt it more intuitive to have home button in the middle? Also, based on this photo you can see that no % battery icon will be presented in HTC Sense 5.0. Furthermore, it seems that HTC didnt remove stock Android browser, so out of the box youll have two browsers in the system.

My final thoughts? Well... hard to say. Im excited as everyone when new HTC flagship device is almost to come. Without premature judgment I can only say that if the screen wouldnt be turned on showing HTC Sense 5.0 UI, I would blindly say that its next HTC Windows Phone device.
