    Sonim XP3300 FORCE

    The XP3300 FORCE is a quad band GSM with GPRS and EDGE class 12 data capability and Bluetooth 2.1. It’s built on the MediaTek MT6235 ARM-based platform and features an omni-directional, noise-canceling microphone, a 2 megapixel camera with LED flash (which also doubles as a torch), MicroSD slot and an FM radio and media player. It comes pre-installed with the popular Opera Mini browser, a native email client and the City Cruiser turn-by-turn, voice-guided navigation application backed by enterprise-class GPS.

    The XP3300 FORCE’s 1750 mAh battery is reported to power the device for up to 20 to 24 hours of talk time like the motorola phone batteries and a massive 800 hours standby, which is more than enough to cope with the 16-hour shift work that the phone was designed for.

    Apple iPhone 5 Mini soon to launch in the market

    It is not surprising to know that Apple would launch a smaller iPhone handset, possibly the iPhone 5 Mini at any given time because the company normally works on a number of prototypes.

    The prototype, whose existence was revealed by Bloomberg, is thought to be cheaper (with prices starting at around $200 SIM free) and 33% smaller than the current iPhone 4.

    According to Bloomberg, the rest of the components and features would still be the same with the current iPhone 4 including the Apple A4 processor, the screen. We expect it to be based on the new Verizon iPhone 4 with a Qualcomm baseband processor.
