The GALAXY Note 8.0 was the only important change brought by Samsung at MWC 2013. A video he presents the function of this tablet. The participation of Samsung at the Mobile World Congress 2013 will certainly be remembered as one of those able to make their mark: the Korean manufacturer, in fact, decided to take advantage of the Barcelona fair to show some of the devices launched in the next few weeks, limiting new the GALAXY Note 8.0.
And ‘this was, in fact, the main attraction of Samsung at MWC 2013: This is the Korean manufacturer’s answer to’ iPad Mini tablet which will have to see if the soon will make its debut on the market.
Seem like Lenovo has been quite hesitated about releasing its new tablet since there is very little information about the availability of any tablet from Lenovo while many other companies tried to push as much information as possible to gain people attention at CES or MWC.
However it is not too late for Lenovo, according to PCWorld, Lenovo has a plan to bring a new Android powered tablet to the market in June. It will come with the code name as “LePad”. It is expected to be powered by 1.2GHz Qualcomm Snapdragon processor with a 10.1-inch screen display. Of course to compete with iOS as well as other Android tablet, Lenovo also get LePad runs on Android 2.2 OS.
It is one more step to get closer to Apple products. Samsung has Galaxy smartphone to compete with iPhone, Samsung Galaxy Tab for iPad and now Galaxy S WiFi for iPod which was announced at Mobile World Congress 2011.
What do you think about purchasing the Galaxy S without contract and sim free? That is not impossible when you see this one, Samsung Galaxy S WiFi. It is powered by Android OS with 4- and 5-inch screen with front-facing camera, HDMI port and microSD card slot.
However release date and pricing are still not yet announced.
I am sure that this is what you don’t want to miss at MWC 2011 and it is Sony Ericsson Xperia Pro. If you didn’t miss you should have seen the Xperia Play or PlayStation Phone I posted early.
Now to fulfill its destination for the mobile phone market, at MWC, Sony Ericsson has just announced its its new Xperia Pro with full QWERTY keyboard. Other main features include a 3.7-inch touchscreen with 854 x 480 display and Sony’s Bravia graphics engine, a Qualcomm Snapdragon 1GHz processor, 8 megapixel camera with LED flash and 720p HD video capture and a 2 megapixel front facing camera.
However these are all we can get. Sony still wants to keep the release date and price untold.

Samsung Galaxy S II and Galaxy Tab II were on a Korean site, Paran, already leaving us some reliable specs but now seem like we can get more and more information relating to these two devices.
The Galaxy S II will be out with a 4.3-inch, 800 x 480 Super AMOLED Plus display. It is powered by a 1GHz dual-core Orion / Exynos processor and other features include NFC, Bluetooth 3.0, and 24Mbps HSPA+ connectivity. Another interesting thing is its appearance which is expected to be 9.9mm, quite fatter.
Next is the Galaxy Tab II. Just as what we expected, the Tab II is coming with Honeycomb OS, a 10.1-inch touch screen. A selection of 16GB / 32GB / 64GB storage are also available for choices. The most interesting things is the Android 3.0 UI which can’t be found on before.
Last but not least is that Samsung is trying to bring a 4-inch WVGA display with 3D capabilities to its devices which can the spot on these. We have seen the 3D display on LG Optimus 3D already.
Just ahead of MWC 2011, ViewSonic can’t hold their good news for its fans by introducing its two new combo devices which are a tablet and a smartphone.
Just like other companies such as Apple, ViewSonic also has a great tablet with the code name of ViewPad 10Pro and V350 as a smartphone.
Talking about the ViewPad 10Pro tablet, you are free to use Windows 7 Professional and Android 2.2. Thank to these features, you are free to do your business while running the tablet on Window 7 and turn it to Android for more fun for your free time. To make it even easier, 10 inch touch screen with1024 x 600 resolution is visible enough and convenience for portable. Other features include Intel Oak Trail processor, Flash 10.1, 3G, WiFi, and Bluetooth.
If you think that there is nothing more impressive to happen after CES 2011, then you are wrong. Mobile World Congress is on its way. Even there is no official word, we can say that Samsung will announced another Android smartphone at Mobile World Congress.
It will be Samsang Galaxy Mini. Its main features are Android 2.2.1, a 240 x 320 pixel display, Bluetooth 3.0, 802.11 b/g/n, as well as a microSD card slot.
Let’s wait and see at MWC in Barcelona in February.
