The Apple iPad 3 is Apple's third-generation tablet, and it improves on what was already the tablet to beat with an impressive specification set. It is not as revolutionary or outlandish as some rumours were suggesting - this latest iPad is more of a logical evolution of the previous device, but it must leave competitors wondering how they are going to catch up.

Another addition to Sony's new line of Xperia "NXP" handsets, the Sony Xperia Sola looks like a straightforward mid-market smartphone, but it has one interesting and unique feature with the screen that we will come to later. 



Fitting in between the Xperia P and Xperia U, the seemingly randomly-named Xperia Sola has a 3.7" 480 x 854 pixel display, a 1GHz dual-core processor with 512MB of RAM, 8GB of internal flash (5GB is user accessible) plus a microSD slot, a 5 megapixel camera with 720p HD video recording and fast capture (but no mention of a front-facing camera), an FM radio, Bluetooth, GPS, WiFi and 3.5G support plus all the usual Android features.

Out of the box the Xperia Sola will run Android 2.3 with an upgrade to Android 4.0 promised shortly during the summer. This is a bit annoying as (in our view) manufacturers should really be shipping with 4.0, rather than forcing users to do a major upgrade just after the have received the phone.

Sony have included all the usual Xperia add-ons with the Xperia Sola, and because this is a Sony then users have access to Sony's own content network for music, videos and games.

The unique selling point with the Xperia Sola is the display, which allows a user to "float" their finger above the screen while browsing which acts like a cursor. When the correct link is selected, the user just taps the screen. This sounds like an interesting idea, because web browsing can be tricky even on a big screen phone. The display also uses BRAVIA technology for improved image quality and has scratch resistant glass.

One other interesting feature is the use of NFC SmartTags to alter the behaviour of the phone. The default configuration for these is "bedroom" which turns on the alarm and mutes the ringer and "living room" that turns on WiFi and loads the news and weather. You can reconfigure the tags if you like, or you can buy other tags for tags for other applications.

The Sony Xperia Sola is a relatively lightweight device, coming in at 107 grams and measuring 116 x 59 x 9.9mm. Inside is a 1320 mAh battery quoted as giving up to 5 hours talktime and over 19 days standby time, although as ever actuallyusing your Android phone will drain the battery more quickly.

The floating cursor feature and the NFC SmartTags raise the Xperia Sola from being a dull mass-market smartphone to something a bit more interesting. And although the Sola lacks the stunning looks of some other devices in the new Sony Xperia range, it is still quite a smart device that will be available in black, white or red colours.

Sony say that the Xperia Sola should be available during Q2 2012. No guidance was given on price, but we would expect the Sola to retail for between €300 to €350 SIM-free at launch.

The Samsung Galaxy S WiFi 4.2 looks like a mobile phone, but it is actually a compact Android tablet that follows on from last year's Galaxy S WiFi 4.0 and 5.0.

The Orange Santa Clara is the codename Orange's first Intel-powered Android phone, and it will be one of the first devices of its type to market during the summer of 2012.

Orange is making a big fuss about the Intel CPU in the Santa Clara, saying that it offers "leading performance and energy efficiency". For anoraks amongst you, the handset is powered by the Intel Atom Z2460 with the Intel XMM 6260 Platform, whatever that means. Significantly though, this is a completely different processor from those based on the ARM core - which is just about every other smartphone in the world. The handset is made for Orange by Gigabyte of Taiwan, rather than their recent partners ZTE.

Unfortunately, Orange have missed a few key details from the specification sheet. We know that it has a 4.0" display, but we have to guess that the resolution is an unusual 1024 x 600 pixels because it has a 17:10 aspect ratio. We don't know the processor speed, but we guess it is about 1.6GHz (although clock speed isn't everything), and we don't know how much memory the Santa Clara has either (although we guess 1GB).

What we do know for certain is that there's an 8 megapixel camera on the back, there's a front-facing video camera, 16GB of internal flash memory and presumably all the usual Android stuff such as 3.5G support, WiFi, Bluetooth and GPS. The Orange Santa Clara measures 123 x 63 x 10mm and weighs 117 grams. At launch the Santa Clara will run Android 2.3 with an upgrade to Android 4.0 promised.

The Orange Santa Clara might not actually ship under that name, and Orange say that the commercial name will be revealed at the official launch. However, they have another popular Android handsdet called the San Francisco, so Santa Clara is a perfectly good name.

Orange say that the Santa Clara (or whatever it will be called) should be available in the UK and France from this summer. No guidance was given on price.

The ASUS PadFone is a normal looking smartphone with a clever trick - it slots into the back of a dedicated tablet, transforming this from a smartphone with a 4.3" display to a full sized 10.1" tablet.

Panasonic left the European market six years ago after a serious of market flops and an obvious difficulty in getting competitive handsets to market. They vowed to return though, and finally Panasonic have returned with thePanasonic ELUGA smartphone.

The HTC One S is one of three randomly named models forming part of the new "HTC One" series of smartphones, including the One X and One V. You wouldn't guess that the One S is actually the middle of the range from the "S" at the end of the name, but it is. 

Hey.I think U all know about Google Chrome as it is one of the most fastest web browser of all and use it as well.. But do u know that Everytime you turn on Ur PC and connect your Internet with it Google Chrome gets Updated because Literally everyday Google  releases Updates for it's stability and fix issues.. But the crappy part is that everytime the browser gets Updated it wont delete the older files . Instead of this the older files also remains with it.. So Shane Gowland releases a application to remove those backups easily as those causes slowdown of PCs.

Samsung's heavily fragmented smartphone range continues to expand in all directions at once, in this case with the Samsung Galaxy Ace 2. The original Galaxy Ace was pitched at the lower end of the midrange market, presumably where the Galaxy Ace 2 also finds itself.. although the Ace was only upgraded last month with the Galaxy Ace Plus which presumably will be sold alongside the Ace 2.

One of HTC's new "One" range of Android smartphones, the HTC One V comes in a familiar looking case and apart from the fact that it runs Android 4.0, it has a familiar looking specification sheet as well.

The default option of Windows 7 to display the thumbnails of files can sometimes become irritating for some users. Though the feature is quite helpful for finding files quicker, at times it may display your confidential files to others which can lead to unwanted consequences. If you wish to disable this feature and display file icons instead, this tutorial will help you do that. Here are the steps for disabling the file thumbnails in Windows 7:

The worldwide version of the Nokia Lumia 900 follows on from the AT&T version announced last month, with a few minor changes along the way.

Some years ago - before touchscreen phones were all the rage - the trend with mobile phones was that they kept getting smaller and smaller with every generation. That was OK because most phones used to be pretty basic, but recent smartphone are more like computers and because you can do a lot more with them, then the display sizes have been getting bigger and bigger.

Messaging phones such as the Nokia Asha 302 tend not to be the most sexy devices on the block, but this particular handset costs less than €100 before tax and packs in an impressive amount of features for that money.  

Nokia's "Asha" range of handsets are low cost but versatile feature phones, aimed at those who don't want or cannot afford an expensive smartphone. The Nokia Asha 202 and Nokia Asha 203 are two of the simpler devices in this range, retailing for just €60 excluding tax and subsidy. 

One of a trio of "HTC One" phones, theHTC One X marks a fresh line-up devices for HTC.. and this time the names don't sound like a brand of condoms. 

The most affordable Windows smartphone from Nokia yet, the Nokia Lumia 610 takes advantage of the latest "Tango" release of Windows Phone 7.5, aimed at making Windows available on more modest smartphones.

The Motorola DROID 4 is the fourth generation of Motorola's DROID line of QWERTY-equipped Android smartphones that are exclusive to the Verizon Wireless network in the US. It follows closely on from the DROID 3, and is more an evolutionary upgrade rather than a revolutionary new device.
