Skype 3.0 arrives on Android with Microsoft login and new tablet UI

Skype just released version 3.0 on Android, which brings its new Microsoft account login feature, as well a revamped Android user interface. Skype has optimized the new tablet UI for the Galaxy Tab 2, Nexus 7, the Transformer Prime from ASUS, and a few others. Menus and navigation have been redesigned to make use of the extra screen real estate, and while the home screen still exists on the phone version, your contact list will be front and center most of the time on a tablet.

Skype for Android 3.0 also brings support for the company’s audio codec, SILK. The codec was designed to improve sound specifically with the human voice, so that talking would sound more crisp and clear. The codec collaborates with your internet connection speed, so that the audio quality is optimized as much as it can be.
Overall, the new additions are welcomed, but we noticed the app ran a little too slow for our liking, especially when launching the app, since the splash screen stays on for a good 8-10 seconds. Either way, try it out for yourself. The Skype update is out now and it’s available at the Google Play store.

LG Nexus 4 review

 

 

The hardware

Here's the funny thing about the Nexus 4 -- we kind of knew it was coming, and we kind of knew what it would be like. First came the rumblings that LG would be the manufacturer, and that it'd be a close cousin to the Optimus G, which the Korean manufacturer launched in September in Seoul. LG brought in journalists from throughout the world (including us) to get the first look at the Optimus G. And looking at the first leaked pictures, as well as the rumored specs, it was pretty apparent we'd be seeing the same species in the Nexus 4.

The Nexus 4 display

So let's start out front. LG's using the same 4.7-inch IPS display at 768x1280 resolution as on the Optimus G. That packs in a few more pixels than the Samsung Galaxy did (a mere 720p wide). IPS displays are known for their brilliance, and LG's proved itself here. Colors, while toned down a tad from the Super AMOLED panel in the Samsung Galaxy Nexus, are very crisp, and individual pixels aren't as apparent. But the biggest difference perhaps is in color temperature. Whites are white again, and side-by-side the Nexus 4 makes the Galaxy Nexus display look like a yellow tobacco stain. If we had to pick two displays to duke it out for the next year, we'd pick LG's IPS display, and the Super LCD2 display being used by HTC.

The Nexus 4 display is covered by Gorilla Glass 2, and it takes a subtle curve toward the edges of the phone -- a very nice design touch. We wouldn't call that "curved glass" or a "curved display" or anything, though. The front-facing camera's in the top right corner, and the earpiece is a sliver where the display meets the top edge.  There's a notification light below the screen that works the same as on the Galaxy Nexus.

 

The body

 

The really interesting thing here is that the Nexus 4, from the front anyway, could easily be mistaken for the Galaxy Nexus, at least by a layman. They're close enough in size and shape, though the Nexus 4 has better design cues. (Whether that's from LG or Google we'll be debating for some time.)

 

First, the boring stuff: The Nexus 4's 8-megapixel camera is flush with the body of the phone. It doesn't stick out at all. But then there's the flash, which has a tiny little ring around it. The more astute will recall that this is the same scheme used in the 8MP version of the Optimus G.

Samsung Galaxy Premier is official - 4.65-inch screen, Jelly Bean

After numerous rumors and leaks, the Samsung Galaxy Premier has finally been officially announced by Samsung Ukraine. Aimed at Eastern European markets, the Galaxy Premier combines mid-to-high-end smartphone internals with the latest software from Google and Samsung.
The Galaxy Premier packs a 4.65-inch, 1280x720 HD SuperAMOLED display, and is powered by a 1.5GHz TI OMAP 4 CPU, backed up by 1GB of RAM. You've also got 16GB of storage, expandable via a microSD slot, an 8MP rear camera and 1.9MP front-facer. On the software side, you're looking at Android 4.1.1 Jelly Bean and Samsung's latest TouchWiz UI.
At one point the Galaxy Premier was rumored as a possible Samsung Nexus device, owing to its product number (GT-i9260) being similar to that of the Galaxy Nexus. Instead, it merely looks like Samsung's re-using some Galaxy Nexus components in its latest mid-range handset.
The Samsung Galaxy Premier is due for a November launch, priced at ₴5,555 ($679). So far there's no information available as to any launch outside of Eastern Europe.
