Espionage

the spy scandal involving the U.S. government and its National Security Agency (NSA), many people have become increasingly concerned regarding your privacy, especially in electronic devices such as smartphones. The Apple devices, for example, were big target of spying by the NSA. Thus, many politicians and executives are probably looking for solutions outside of the major manufacturers for a device of communication.

Therefore, many companies are taking advantage of it and releasing their devices with more complex security to try to escape from any kind of espionage, in particular the NSA.

One of the manufacturers to launch an “anti-spy” smartphone is the Bull SA, a French manufacturer of safety devices. The smartphone called Hoox m2 has several security mechanisms and all information is encrypted both in software and hardware. Besides the fingerprint reader and other authentication methods, the device runs a modified version of Android that encrypts all calls, SMS messages and emails.

Despite all that, the specs are modest, and the Hoox m2 comes with a 4.68 inch screen with resolution 540×960 pixels, quad-core 1.5 GHz, 1GB RAM Cortex A5 processor and a 5 megapixel camera on rear. Toy for grownups (very large) can be purchased for a pricey $ 2,760.

This is just one of many devices that promise maximum security. the GSMK, German manufacturer also has its own smartphone this guy named CryptoPhone. For sure other manufacturers will come in jest. Now we can only have something really effective in normal smartphones, as privacy should not be something bought but a right for all. [PhoneArena]

Acer launches 27-inch computer with Android - Tudocelular.com

Computer Acer running Android

Acer launched a rather curious and risky product, Acer TA272 HUL, a computer all-in-one 27 running Android operating system, which will cost U.S. $ 1.099.

This seems somewhat desperate to find a product that will revolutionize and save the company, since the Acer (and the whole PC market) is going through anything difficult times. According to IDC, sending PCs Acer fell by 34.5% per year, while the rest of the PC industry had a minor fall, of 7.6%.

But do not know if this will be the device that will save the Acer. It seems strange to imagine someone who accepts this size and price a computer running Android 4.2 Jelly Bean and with the following specifications: 27-inch screen with 2560×1440 resolution, 16GB of storage, USB 3.0 port, HDMI / DisplayPort input and connectivity 802.11a / b / g / n WiFi SmarTV are more than PC.

Nokia Normandy Android device may still be alive - Tecmundo

(Image Source: Reproduction / BGR)

When the first news about Nokia Normandy emerged, it was hard not to think that it was merely a design company that never see the light of day. That’s because, with the purchase of the Finnish company from Microsoft, it was not difficult to reach the conclusion that the smartphone equipped with Android operating system would be disposed to prefer a product with the Windows Phone platform.

However, a message posted by EVLeaks, the famous Twitter profile to obtain and disseminate accurate information about the behind the scenes of the industry indicates that the gadget has not been fully abandoned. According to those responsible for the account on the microblogging system, “reports of the death of Normandy were greatly exaggerated.”

Although this does not necessarily indicate that Microsoft go launch Android device at any time, the statement serves as evidence that we will have more information on the smartphone in the near future. Thus, it will not be strange if soon the internet is flooded with leaked images of the product, which may be accompanied by further details about the hardware that would accompany it.

To give strength to the statements of EVLeaks, a member of the Chinese social network Weibo posted a photo of what is identified as the prototype of Normandy. According WPDang, responsible for the leak, the device does not have the traditional identification of Nokia on the outside and runs a very customized version of Android, similar to what Amazon does with its devices.

In the photograph you can see little more than the external shape of the device, since the corresponding icons to your applications appear completely blurred – the only conclusion that can be drawn from the screen of the device is that it will likely rely on support dual-SIM technology. Rumors indicate that, if released, the gadget should not rely on access to Google Play Store, featuring a modest hardware that is very similar to what is seen in the Nokia Asha line.
