Traditionally, Nexus line handsets have one primary advantage over other smartphones — they get the latest version of Android OS first. So the LG Nexus will presumably come with Jelly Bean aboard. This conclusion is drawn by the recently leaked photos. Though it’s in Russian it represents no difficulty to understand this phone runs Jelly Bean MR1. Other than that, the LG Nexus is said to sport a quad-core Snapdragon S4 processor, which will be faster than the Nvidia Tegra 3. So users can be sure all the popular Android apps and games like Whatsapp Messenger or Temple Run will work smoothly on the phone.

Besides these specs, let us assess the external look of the LG Nexus. Apparently, LG has tried to combine the traditional lineaments of its own smartphones and Nexus series handsets. So Nexus fans must be pleased with the rounded corners and the crystallized texture of the battery door.

We’ll keep on waiting for news from other manufacturers including HTC, Samsung, Sony, and Motorola because they are the main candidates for the other Nexus smartphones. So far only HTC and Sony have been rumored to join the party.

Upgrading the Galaxy Note will be huge in helping Google boost the number of Android devices running on Ice Cream Sandwich as the Note has proven to be one of the surprise hits of the year so far, selling in excess of 7 million units to date. CNET got a sneak peak at Android 4.0 on the Note and called the upgrade “subtle, but useful.”

“Production of Google TVs will start from May 17 from our factory in Mexico and U.S. consumers will be able to buy the product from the week of May 21,” said Ro Seogho, LG’s executive vice president of its TV business. The executive said the company will decide whether to expand its Google TV offering to Europe and Asia based on sales performance in the U.S. market.

Before you start thinking – why can’t all AT&T phones be unlocked and used on T-Mobile in the same way, it’s because the Galaxy Note has the necessary HSPA+ access built-in, just that it is configured to different bands hence the need to hack the phone before it can work.

If you’re interested in turning your AT&T Galaxy Note into a T-Mobile HSPA+ compatible device, the instructions are available on XDA-developers. As usual, remember to back up your device and make sure you know what you’re doing before attempting anything. You never know what could go wrong.

Developing… There’s no denying it: the Eluga is built to impress. From the deep blacks on its 4.3-inch qHD 960 x 540 OLED display to the sophisticated curve of the unit’s smooth, matte back, this is one phone you’ll want to brandish in public. Weighing only 3.6 ounces (or 103 grams), it registers lightly in the hand and would make for an almost perfect grip were it not for the front’s sharp edges. And keeping in step with the latest mobile trend, Panasonic’s also imbued its beauty with a combo of water- and dust-proofing.

Hopefully, the 2,000mAh battery will withstand all that thinking power, while Ice Cream Sandwich should help push those multitasking chops to its limit. Camera-wise, you can expect an increasingly standard eight-megapxiel sensor, with a 1.3-megapixel camera on the front. There also appears to be some NFC hardware inside, identified by that circular logo at the top of these tantalizing screengrabs — something we saw on LG’s Prada phone 3.0. We’re hoping to get a full explanation (and a look at some hardware) at Mobile World Congress. There’s just a few weeks to go.

It is made out of aluminum and sports a pair of neodymium speakers with 20W of total power which should do a pretty decent job, at least compared to the tiny built-in speakers on the iPhone/iPod. However thanks to its AUX-in port, the Philips DS6100 can be used with a variety of other gadgets, such as with the iMac and will allow for “easy connection to almost any electronic device”. If you like what you are seeing, you’ll be pleased to hear that Philips is expected to start shipping the DS6100 speaker dock come May 2012 and is expected to retail for $179.99.

Additionally, the 3400 packs a 3-inch touchscreen LCD and costs $180, while the 2400 gets a smaller non-touchscreen 2.7-inch LCD and retails for $150. Meanwhile, the A2300 has the same specs as the 2400, minus the image stabilization, and will cost ten bucks less than its brother when it drops next month. Finally, the PowerShot A1300 and A810 each come with 5X optical zoom and a 2.7-inch LCD when they debut in April, with the A810 priced at $110 and the A1300 available for $120.

We want to know how you feel about the unit, does that good camera compensate for its flaws, how does the charm indicator work on a daily basis and most importantly of all, if you were offering suggestions for a revised version, how would you change HTC’s Rhyme? The comments are this way, fill them with words and let’s talk this one over.
