Google Android Smartphone ReView 2011: Motorola Atrix 4G (www.drmobiles.co.nz) "Android phone repair"

It was the alliance with Android that put Motorola out of the woods. Like every partnership, it’s been a series of peaks and dips but every now and then the relationship between Motorola and Android goes beyond a mere marriage of convenience and well into a simmering love affair.

They did it with the MILESTONEs and the DROID X, the BACKFLIP and the DEFY. With the ATRIX 4G, Moto says it has no plans to live in the shadows of other big makers.

The Motorola ATRIX 4G is the first dual-core smartphone in the Motorola line-up. It’s also the first to flaunt a qHD touchscreen. That’s as solid as credentials get. Add the fact it’s the first handset for Motorola to support the fast HSDPA+ network (hence the 4G moniker) and you’ve got yourself a Droid that’s not afraid of what comes next.

Dual core is certainly the next big thing in mobile phones and the Motorola ATRIX deserves credit for being among the first – our bad really, this review isn’t exactly on time.

But there are other bold decisions that Motorola had to make. The HD and laptop docks for one – though the concept is not exactly original, Motorola is trying to make it mainstream. The added fingerprint scanner is not new either but well forgotten old does just as well. Plus, it will satisfy the privacy freak in all of us.

Anyway, the standard package is what we’re interested in and this is what our review will focus on. The optional extras can wait. The ATRIX is more important to us a phone (a dual-core smartphone, to be precise) than a wannabe laptop or a potential entertainment dock. Let’s waste no more time and take a glimpse of the ATRIX 4G’s key features.

Key features

  • Quad-band GSM and dual-band 3G with HSDPA and HSUPA
  • 4" 16M-color capacitive touchscreen of qHD (960 x 540 pixels) resolution, scratch-resistant Gorilla glass
  • Dual-core 1GHz ARM Cortex-A9 proccessor, ULP GeForce GPU, Tegra 2 chipset; 1GB of RAM
  • Android OS v2.2; MOTOBLUR UI (update to Gingerbread planned)
  • Web browser with Adobe Flash 10.1 support
  • 5 MP autofocus camera with dual-LED flash; face detection, geotagging
  • 720p video recording @ 30fps (to be upgraded to 1080p Full-HD )
  • Wi-Fi ab/g/n; Wi-Fi hotspot functionality; DLNA
  • GPS with A-GPS; Digital compass
  • Fingerprint scanner that doubles as a power key
  • 16GB storage; expandable via a microSD slot
  • Accelerometer and proximity sensor
  • Standard 3.5 mm audio jack
  • microUSB port (charging) and stereo Bluetooth v2.1 with A2DP
  • standard microHDMI port
  • Smart and voice dialing
  • Office document editor
  • Active noise cancellation with a dedicated secondary mic
  • DivX/XviD video support
  • Lapdock and HD Dock versatility
  • Web browser with Adobe Flash 10.2 support

Main disadvantages

  • Not the latest Android version
  • No FM radio
  • Screen image is pixelated upon closer inspection
  • Questionable placement of the Power/Lock button
  • Poor pinch zoom implementation in the gallery
  • No dedicated shutter key
  • Doesn’t operate without a SIM card inside

The ATRIX 4G is certainly the most powerful phone Motorola has made so far. With a 1GHz dual-core processor, 1GB worth of RAM and the ultra low power GeForce GPU under its hood, the ATRIX 4G is set to win the hearts and minds of power users.

Garnish all this premium hardware with a 5MP camera with dual LED flash and a 4-inch capacitive touchscreen of qHD resolution of 540x960 pixels, and the ATRIX 4G is more than ready to play with the other dual-core kids.

The Motorola ATRIX 4G retail package

Let’s start with a peek at what the ATRIX 4G has in the way of standard accessories. Along with the handset itself, you will find the two-piece charger-data cable.

Motorola Atrix Review Motorola Atrix Review
Motorola ATRIX 4G accessories

A great addition to the otherwise routine accessory pack is the HDMI cable, which should save users some cash. Unfortunately, there is no microSD card, nor stereo headphones. Needless to say, the other big accessories – the HD multimedia dock, the laptop dock and the standard dock – are all sold separately.

Motorola ATRIX 4G 360-degree spin

Measuring 117.8 x 63.5 x 11 mm, the Motorola ATRIX 4G is quite compact for a 4” handset. It feels very comfortable to hold in hand and the big 4” screen doesn’t preclude single-hand operation.


Display test

The front of the handset is mainly occupied by the massive 4.0” qHD display with a resolution of 560 x 940 pixels. The capacitive touchscreen has great response with crisp and vibrant colors indoors.

Unfortunately, despite the higher resolution, the ATRIX 4G renders the Android graphics (icons, text and such) rather pixelated when looking up close.

Of course, that's an exxaggerrated view but believe us you can tell the difference. The HTC Desire S screen definitely looks smoother even though it's got a lower pixel density than the Atrix.

Judging from our display test, the brightness of the screen is one of the best we’ve seen. Contrast levels are okay for an LCD, but not as good as a Super AMOLED. You can find more information on your display test here.

It's June again, time for Apple to make headlines. The WWDC is over and the iOS 5 and the iCloud are now official. It won't be before the fall though that the iOS 5 will officially launch.

However, Apple has given us a taste of the iOS 5 by releasing a developer preview soon after the announcement. We went on to update an iPhone 4 with the beta release and we are ready to share our first impressions.

Ios_5_preview
But before we continue, let's take a look at the most important features to premiere on the iOS 5.


Apple iOS 5 new features:

  • Notifications - real time on-screen notifications, lockscreen notifications and pull-down Notification Center
  • iMessage service in the Messaging app enabling instant messages to other iOS users
  • Reminders - including location-aware options
  • Customizable notification sounds - email, voicemail and calendar alerts
  • Twitter integration
  • iCloud service integration
  • Enhanced Camera app - viewfinder grid, hardware shutter key
  • Integrated photo editing - crop, auto enhance, rotate and red-eye fix
  • Updated Safari - tabbed browsing (on iPad), private browsing mode, integrated Reader, Reading list and optimized performance
  • Dictionary lookup throughout the interface
  • Computer free operation - independent activation, OTA updates, iCloud backup and restore
  • Wi-Fi synchronization with iTunes with automatic operation
  • New features in the Mail app - Bold, Italic, Underline and Quote options, extended Search, mass Mark as Read/Unread and Flag setting, Add/Delete mailbox folders
  • Updated Calendar and Game Center apps
  • Newsstand app combining all of your magazine subscriptions
  • iPod player now called Music, has new icon
  • Separate Video app for iPhone
  • AppStore purchase history (already available for iOS 4 too)
  • New Storage management options (list and info of all installed apps)
  • Multi-tasking gestures for iPad
  • AirPlay mirroring for iPad
  • New accessibility options involving the LED flash and custom vibrations

Typically, there's still plenty of stuff missing and some of the things will probably never make it to the iOS. Here is a list of the things we continue to miss:

Still missing:

  • No Flash support in the web browser
  • No quick toggles for Wi-Fi, Bluetooth and 3G
  • No Facebook integration
  • No proper widgets for the lockscreen
  • App folders still are limited to 12 apps tops
  • No DivX/XviD video support out of the box (though there're lots of players in the App Store)
  • No USB Mass storage mode for uploading content to the device
  • No haptics for the touchscreen
  • No Bluetooth file transfers to other phones
  • Contacts lack a swipe-to-delete or mass delete feature

Well, the list is notably shorter than last year's. It's debatable though whether Apple listened to the users or just filled their time with low-priority features that have been on the list for quite some time. Either way, some of the new stuff is quite good so let's waste no more time on introductions. Follow us on the next page where we start to explore the iOS 5 at close range.

2011 Smartphone review: HTC Sensation, Google Android mobile phone (gadget, news, update, "Dr Mobiles Limited")

HTC burst right onto the dual-core scene with a phone that's set to be an Android sensation. They've gone all out with the design of that one - from screen, through camera to the powerful chipset. No cutting corners, no compromise on features.


HTC Sensation official photos

HTC has a flair for big names but Sensation sure is something else. The name simply sticks. We're talking a monster 4.3" S-LCD screen with qHD resolution (540 x 960). If the bump in resolution doesn’t mean much to you, picture this – the Sansation’s 4.3-inch screen has the same pixel density as a much smaller 3.7" screen with regular WVGA resolution.

The 1.2GHz dual-core Snapdragon chipset with the new Adreno 220 graphics bodes no good for rivals. But hey, that's the news we've been waiting for. A battle is brewing and dual-core domination is the prize.

Before we let the excitement of benchmarks cloud our minds, let's get the laundry list out of the way. Here's what the HTC Sensation has to offer and what didn’t work all that well.

Key features

  • Quad-band GSM and dual-band 3G support
  • 14.4 Mbps HSDPA and 5.76 Mbps HSUPA
  • 4.3" 16M-color capacitive LCD touchscreen of qHD resolution (540 x 960 pixels); Gorilla glass
  • Android OS v2.3 Gingerbread with HTC Sense 3.0
  • 1.2 GHz dual Scorpion CPUs, Adreno 220 GPU, Qualcomm Snapdragon MSM8260 chipset
  • 768 MB RAM and 1 GB storage for apps
  • 8 MP autofocus camera with LED flash; face detection and geotagging
  • 1080p and 720p video recording @ 30fps
  • Wi-Fi b/g/n and DLNA
  • GPS with A-GPS
  • Stereo FM radio with RDS
  • microSD slot up to 32GB (8GB card included)
  • Accelerometer, proximity sensor and an auto-brightness sensor
  • Front facing camera with video calls
  • Standard 3.5 mm audio jack
  • microUSB port (charging) and stereo Bluetooth v3.0
  • MHL TV-out (requires MHL-to-HDMI adapter)
  • Smart dialing, voice dialing
  • DivX/XviD video support
  • HTC Locations app
  • HTCSense.com integration
  • HTC Portable Hotspot
  • Ultra-fast boot times (if you don’t remove battery)
  • Office document editor

Main disadvantages

  • Serious "death grip" issue with Wi-Fi radio
  • Less than impressed with the screen's outdoor performance
  • Performance not quite as convincing as other dual-cores
  • No dedicated camera key
  • microSD is under the battery cover
  • No unibody construction as advertised

You'll notice that "unibody" is not on the feature list - the back cover is certainly interesting but this is by no means a unibody. Let's not let that sully the great impression though - the Sensation is one of the most powerful droids around and it's on the shortlist if you're looking for the ultimate in smartphones.

The 8MP camera with 1080p video recording begs for a camera shootout. And the high-res S-LCD unit calls for another display test. So that's a lot of testing we have ahead of us.

The HTC Sensation at ours

But before we get busy, we need to give credit where it's due. HTC have been perfecting their interface designs for years and the latest Sense UI 3.0 is laced with equal amounts of useful features and eye candy.

Retail package: nothing out of the usual

The HTC Sensation comes in a ordinary looking box and there's nothing surprising about its contents. A compact charger connects to the provided microUSB cable to fill the battery. There's also a nice single-piece headset with music controls.

HTC Sensation HTC Sensation
The HTC Sensation retail package

The only real perk in the package is the 8GB microSD card, which comes inserted in the phone.

There's no MHL dongle in the package - you'll have to buy one yourself if you want to enjoy streaming HD video. Other MHL-enabled devices don't come with MHL dongles either, so this didn’t surprise us much.

Design and construction

It's hard to deny that HTC make some attractive looking handsets and the Sensation is good enough proof. It just isn't a prime example. We can understand their need to freshen up the design and set the new flagship aside. But the end result is questionable - and not what we'd call unibody.

It's curves on the back, curves on the front, curves all around - from the metal plate on the back that extends to wrap around the edges of the phone - to the screen, yep the screen.

The Sensation comes with a 4.3” Gorilla glass protected S-LCD screen. It seems concave because the edges of the screen curve upwards but most of the surface of the display is perfectly flat.

We've seen some very good S-LCD units from HTC and while the one on the Sensation is okay, it has its issues. Viewing angles are less than perfect - contrast is quickly lost when you tilt the phone and colors get slightly off.

Also, blacks are not as deep as AMOLED screens go but brightness and color rendering are good.

HTC Sensation HTC Sensation HTC Sensation HTC Sensation
The S-LCD screen is not the best from HTC • Side by side with the competition

Sunlight legibility is acceptable - though obviously failed by the reflective screen coating.

And here come the results of our now traditional display brightness and contrast test. Deep blacks are not the Sensation's strength and while the brightness levels are OK, the contrast ratios aren’t terribly impressive.

HTC Sensation 0.21 173 809 0.61 438 720
Motorola Atrix 4G 0.48 314 652 0.60 598 991

You can learn more about the test here.

Above the screen, we have the proximity and ambient light sensors to the left of the earpiece and the VGA video call camera on the right. Under the earpiece grill hides a small status LED (on the right).

HTC Sensation
There’s a video-call camera right next to the earpiece this time

Underneath the screen, we find four capacitive keys. The haptic enabled controls are well spaced and very responsive. The keys (Home, Menu, back and search) have extra functionality upon a long-press (task switcher, virtual keyboard, voice search).

HTC Sensation HTC Sensation HTC Sensation
There are four capacitive touch keys below the display • Note the curve of the display

The left side of the Sensation is occupied by the microUSB port and the volume rocker. The volume rocker is quite thin but comfortable enough to use. The microUSB port is left uncovered and it also serves as a charger port.

It's a MHL port and not strictly speaking a microUSB port - though it looks and works like one. Plug in a MHL dongle however and the MHL port transforms into HDMI out.

On the right, there's nothing - you weren’t hoping for a shutter key, were you?

HTC Sensation HTC Sensation HTC Sensation
The volume rocker and the microUSB port on the left side • The completely bare right side

At the top we find the 3.5mm audio jack (left uncovered) and the Power/Lock key, which is easy enough to press when you want but secure against accidental taps.

As usual, at the bottom of the phone, you will see the mouthpiece. There's also a small latch that lets you pop the phone out of its back cover. That's right, the phone comes out of the back cover, not the other way around.

HTC Sensation HTC Sensation HTC Sensation HTC Sensation
3.5mm audio jack and a power/screen lock key on top • The microphone pinhole on bottom

The back of the Sensation features the 8MP camera and the dual-LED flash right next to it. The area around the camera protrudes slightly and the camera lens is set quite deep, giving it very good protection against scratches and fingerprints.

The protruding frame around the lens also helps to keep the loudspeaker from getting muffled when you place the phone on a level surface. It's not entirely successful but the sound is still pretty clear.

HTC Sensation HTC Sensation
The camera lens is flanked by the LED flash and the loudspeaker grill

The back plate consists of three parts – a metal piece in the middle and two parts of soft rubbery plastic either side. Each has different finish - looks like patched together and might not be to everyone's taste.

Unfortunately, the back cover houses the antennas for the HTC Sensation - remove the cover and the phone loses all Wi-Fi signal. It's unusually susceptible too to the so-called "death grip" as our tests confirmed.

Actually, you don’t even need a grip to attenuate the antennas - place the phone flat on the palm of your hand and the phone loses a few notches of Wi-Fi signal. In fact, touching the area around the camera and loudspeaker can reduce the Wi-Fi signal to zero.

The cell network antenna also has death grip issues - they're not as bad but your hands around the bottom of the device will cause the signal to weaken. It's nothing to worry about if the signal is strong enough, but in areas of typically poor reception it can make the difference between having and dropping the call.

Beneath the back cover is the microSD card slot (easily how-swappable once you open the phone) and the SIM card compartment, which is blocked by the battery.

The battery is a 1520mAh Li-Ion unit with a little over 14 days of standby (in 2G, over 16 days in 3G) and over 8 hours of talk time (in 2G, nearly 7 hours in 3G).

HTC Sensation HTC Sensation
Once the back cover comes off, we can access the microSD and SIM card slots and the battery

The HTC Sensation is a solidly built phone - we didn’t get a unibody, but there's a good amount of metal on the phone. We also liked the Gorilla glass that curves at the edges.

The Sensation is a bit thick and heavy compared to other phones with similarly sized screens, but we do like phones that have some heft to them.

HTC fans will love the Sensation, though others might find it a bit hard to tell apart from its HTC siblings.

Next iPhone 5 to be a Single ‘Global Device’ – CDMA+GSM? Dr Mobiles Limited 09-5515344

Early today, while discussing the Verizon’s earnings, CFO Fran Shammo said that Apple’s next-generation iPhone 5 will be a “global device” supporting both GSM and CDMA connectivity rather than having separate models for each network standard, as reported by Barron.
Qualcomm Gobi wireless chip

“The fluctuation, I believe, will come when a new device from Apple is launched, whenever that may be, and that we will be, on the first time, on equal footing with our competitors on a new phone hitting the market, which will also be a global device.

Both the existing CDMA iPhone 4 as well as CDMA iPad 2 carry the Qualcomm Gobi wireless chip. Despite having the capability of connecting to both CDMA and GSM networks, Apple has not build any global device yet.

If we go by Shammo’s comment, this dual-mode iPhone 5 would certainly lower down Apple’s supply chain and operational costs and make the device usable globally. We will get the actual picture only when the iPhone 5 is launched which is already rumored to be released in Q3-2011.

On design-upfront iPhone 5 is already rumored to resemble iPhone 4 with A5 processor. We will update you when more information about iPhone 5 comes-in. For all updates follow us on Twitter or become a Facebook fan.

iPhone 5: Dual-Mode, Tapered Back, 3.7 inch Screen, Gesture-Sensitive Home Button? www.drmobiles.co.nz

Holy hot! Another rumor for us to throw into the journal (courtesy This is my next). If we go by the latest reports, the fifth generation iPhone 5 will be a complete redesign of current iPhone 4 model and not just a kind of iPhone 3G-to-iPhone-3GS transition. The rear part of the iPhone will be tapered and thinner at the bottom than the top, resembling the new MacBook Air with iPod touch 4G like aluminum back.
 
iPhone 5 Mockup
The Home Button will be larger and sensitive to gestures. The display screen will be of 3.7-inches and not 4 as rumored before. Interestingly, the screen will be edge-to-edge, occupying the entire front of the iPhone with almost no bezel. However, it will keep the current resolution, dropping pixel density from 326 to 312, but still above the Retina mark of 300 pixels per inch. This is my next also adds by saying that Apple is exploring ways to hide the earpiece and the sensors behind the screen.

Through some of his legit sources, Joshua confirms that the next iPhone will gallop on Qualcomm’s dual GSM/CDMA Gobi chipset and will support both GSM and CDMA networks worldwide. This strategic move would certainly lower down Apple’s supply chain and operational costs in long run.

He further claims that iPhone 5 could arrive with features such as wireless/inductive charging and NFC, but it actually looks foggy to us as well. We will get to know the actual features only when the iPhone 5 is launched which is rumored to be released in Q3-2011.

We will update you when more information about iPhone 5 comes-in. For all updates follow us on Twitter or become a Facebook fan. [Via 9to5Mac, Joshua]
