Android Smartphone Developments At CES 2013

There weren't many smartphone announcements at CES 2013, but most of them were for Android phones and here they are, including one phablet. Pantech, Sony and Huawei all announced phones some exclusively for the Chinese market and Intel released a CPU and reference platform optimized for Android and also designed for low cost in emerging markets.

LAS VEGAS As far as mobile conferences go, this was a quieter CES -- there were few marquee smartphones and only one real device that pushed the android smartphone form factor forward (but what an interesting specimen). Regardless, phone makers launched 21 new handsets in conjunction with the show.

Intel today unveiled at the Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas a new  Atom-based Android* phone that it says uses lower power and is designed for low-cost smartphones. The phone is very high in performance/cost ratio and offers eye-catching features and performance capabilities. In Live video streamed presentation, Mike Bell, general manager of Intel’s mobile and communications group, said“At Intel, we believe high-end smartphone features should be within everybody’s reach,”

When we first heard about the Yota phone, a 4.3-inch Android phone with a grayscale e-Paper display on the back, we were puzzled but intrigued by the concept.android app development But after seeing a working prototype at CES, we’re excited about the new range of use cases this second screen presents.The back screen can serve as an eReader, an always-present alert system or a post-it note for your digital life.
