Review Canon EOS 50D



Among digital SLRs, the 15.1-megapixel 50D has one of the highest megapixel counts currently offered (the 40D has 10.1 megapixels). The sensor size remains the same, which means you must effectively multiply the focal length of the bundled lens by 1.6 to calculate your 35mm-equivalent focal length. The extra reach is helpful in some situations, but as a result you may need a wider-angle lens for landscapes or for shooting in tight environments.
The EOS 50D received an image-quality score of Superior in the PC World Test Center's digital camera tests. Our test images showed good color saturation and accuracy, under both flash and natural light.

In spite of its higher megapixel count, in our ISO tests the 50D performed almost exactly the same as the 40D did. For both cameras, all our jurors deemed the ISO 3200 results unacceptable and found ISO 1600 adequate. The 50D can handle ISO 100 to 12800, another big change from the 40D (which tops out at ISO 3200). That means you can shoot with it in low-light situations, but you should expect the images to gain color noise.

LG GD510 ( LG Pop) Versus LG Neon 2 (LG Neon GT365)

LG Pop ( LG GD510)


The LG Pop is a compact full touchscreen handset. This phone has a 3.15 megapixel camera with adjustable light effects and autofocus. It has a 3 inch high resolution WQVGA touchscreen with an onscreen QWERTY keyboard. This phone has Music player and stereo FM radio with RDS. It has Blutooth, enabling the user to enjoy the music using wireless connectivity. The photocall phonebook can hold up to 1000 entries, and you can keep records of up to 20 dialled, received or 20 missed calls. It is a Tri band phone weighing just 87 grams.

Smallest 3 inch touchscreen out there. Operating system is simple and not to much customization is allowed- no apps just a small set of widgets. OK Facebook, Twitter and MySpace funtionality. My biggest problem with the set is no 3.5 mm jack- you have to use micro USB headsets instead. You can buy an adapter. 3 homescreens- first is widget screen second is "livesquare" screen, and the 3rd is contacts. The "Livesquare" screen is strange- its a visual representation of you communication log (voice, email, messnger) that is supposed to make tracking ongoing conversations and communications easier. Seemed easier for me to ignore, but really haven't spent much time trying to understand its functionality. 
 
Music interface is usable, but not great, and videos are played through the file manager. Not very sophisticated. That said, had no problem playing MP4s which look very good on the screen. Controls are easy and intuative. Excellent build quality- solid phone feel. 
 
Conclusion- I guess you'd call it an ultra-compact touch screen feature phone. Good if portability is your primary concern. I load it with an 8gb SD with music and movies when I don't want to carry a smartphone. Also cheap enough that loss or damage of the Pop won't be too upsetting.

And do it all on the Retina display--the highest-resolution screen on any mobile device. It makes graphics and text look even more amazing. The new Apple iPod touch 8 GB (4th Generation). It's state-of-the-art fun.

Looks can be amazing
Apple iPod touch 8 GB (4th Generation) has an all-new design that makes it the thinnest, lightest, most amazing iPod touch ever. Holding one is all the proof you need.

Retina display, a blast from the future.

It packs 326 pixels per inch, making it the highest-resolution iPod screen ever. To achieve this, Apple engineers developed pixels so small--a mere 78 micrometers across--that the human eye can't distinguish individual pixels. Even though you can't see them, you'll definitely notice the difference. Text is remarkably sharp, and graphics are incredibly vivid.

Apple A4 processor, more power to you.
The Apple A4 chip is behind, or rather underneath, all the fun you can have on Apple iPod touch 8 GB (4th Generation). Apple engineers designed the A4 chip to be a remarkably powerful yet remarkably power-efficient mobile processor.

Gyro + Accelerometer, smooth moves
Apple iPod touch 8 GB (4th Generation) just learned some new moves. It now includes a built-in three-axis gyroscope. When paired with the accelerometer, the gyro makes Apple iPod touch 8 GB (4th Generation) capable of advanced motion sensing such as user acceleration, full 3D attitude, and rotation rate. Translation: more motion gestures and greater precision for an even better gaming experience.

Two cameras. Double the fun
Apple iPod touch 8 GB (4th Generation) captures video with two built-in cameras. It shoots amazing HD 720p video from the back camera. And with its advanced backside illumination sensor, it captures beautiful footage even in low-light settings. All while the built-in microphone records conversations, music, or any audio at the same time. And on the front of the iPod touch, the built-in camera is perfect for making FaceTime calls and shooting self-portraits. It's surprising how much fun can fit into something so small.

Multi-Touch, control at your fingertips
When you put your finger on the Apple iPod touch 8 GB (4th Generation), how does it just start doing what you want it to do? It's a chain reaction, really. The Multi-Touch display layers a protective shield over a capacitive panel that senses your touch using electrical fields. It then transmits that information to the Retina display below it. So you can glide through albums with Cover Flow, flick through photos and enlarge them with a pinch, zoom in and out on a section of a web page, and control game elements precisely.

Tap for a more instant instant message
Take "LOL" to the next level and actually see friends laughing out loud. Or bring "XOXO" to life when you blow someone a kiss from miles away. FaceTime on Apple iPod touch 8 GB (4th Generation)  makes it possible. FaceTime works right out of the box--just enter your Apple ID and email address. Or create a new email account just for FaceTime. Using FaceTime is as easy as it gets. Say you want to start a video call with your best friend over Wi-Fi. Just tap the FaceTime app and find her entry to start the call. An invitation pops up on her iPod touch or iPhone 4 screen asking if she wants to join you. When she accepts, FaceTime begins. It's all perfectly seamless. And it works in both portrait and landscape. See how much fun you can have.

LG KS 360 Review

LG KS 360 is a complete delight for the enthusiastic 'texters' with easy messaging options. You can easily operate the QWERTY keypad sending SMS's whenever you want. Even sending emails to instant messaging sites has never been so simpler before.

If earlier your fingers have been numbed by writing long text messages, then with LG KS 360 you are going to love it. Kids and teens will be really keen on making use of this messaging device. The teenagers love to send text messages to their folks on phone rather than making use of it to talk. Further, LG KS 360 has advanced messaging options of sending emoticons just like in chat programs. These teens are bound to go for evolving trends in the mobile phone technology, but are constrained by the budget. But this problem will be resolved with the LG KS360 which contains all the rudimentary features of other any moderately priced mobile phone.

The music lovers also will not be disappointed with the device with its support for playing AAC and mp3 formats. You can store an amazing number of tracks in the 15MB of internal memory of this phone. It can also be further built-in with a 4 GB microSD memory card. There are more stunning features in this phone like a 3.2 megapixel camera and a 240x320 pixels resolution 144-colour 2.4 inches TFT display screen.

Nokia N 97 Mini Phones Review

The Nokia Mini N97, is a more compact version of the Nokia N97. The S60 OS interface on the Nokia Mini N97 feels out of date and lacks the ease of use found on other operating systems like Android, iPhone, or webOS.

The Nokia N97 Mini is only slightly smaller than Nokia Mini N97, measuring 4.5 by 2.1 by 0.5 inches (the original measured 4.6 by 2.1 by 0.6 inches). It is also a bit lighter, weighing 4.9 ounces, or 0.4 ounce less than the original.

The Nokia Mini N97 feels much more comfortable in the hand than the Nokia N97. Its high-quality plastic body feels durable. Two touch-sensitive buttons (Talk and End) lie below the display, as does a hardware shortcut key to the menu.

The Nokia Mini N97's call quality over T-Mobile's 3G network was impressive.The display felt more responsive than the original N97's. The Nokia Mini N97 also has haptic feedback (a slight vibration when you touch an app), which helps with the navigation.
