Shiny at MWC: NVIDIA iPhone-busting concept handset

[Tommy7FilmEpidodes]

lulz!!!!!!!...............wow, impressive stuff: here comes the battle of the brands within the brands! That is the processor chip makers inside the phones and slates, pads, ect

like Intel, Arm, Qualcom and now Nvidia's dual core tegra coming first quarter 2011.

I think they are going to kick some serious a*s and spur the competition to improve their stuff, or maybe combine new processor-gpu combinations into the new super slate-phones. What next quadcore with 128gb and 12-16gb ram asstandard?

[ciganskovic]

very nice ui it reminds me a little bit of spb mobile shell 3.but this one looks much better

[realdealworld]

WOW !!!

[hajdeqihmi]

I don't know what does not have this phone/pda...!??!

If this is not almost perfect then, I don't know what could be.

I just wonder how much costs.

[Glowpasa]

not sold. the touch screen is a piece of crap. watch him try to pull up the number pad for the phone and doesnt work. then watch him accidentally open other stuff and pretend like he meant it.

[valten]

hopefully they will have better touch screens on release, if not hope they stick to theprice which will put em ahed of ipods

[BlaBlaBlaZ2]

ha ha! lets see apple copy this product and make it the C Phone - Crap Phone...a rip off of this amazing little device

[chrisfball12]

I love it. My only concern is Price and if it will have a key pad?

[AncientofAncients]

the zuneHD is unconfirmed to be 15-20% cheaper than ipod touch...which is cheper than the iphone.

if their was a zunePhone, it would be similarly priced relative to the iphones price.

Im guessing it would be priced to compete with the iphone.

[HitmanAdski]

iPhone was a CONCEPT handset too. With a response from the public liking it I don't think nVidia is going to not produce this amazing product. it's 10 times smaller and 10 times better in performance then what Intel has, and would immediately render the iPhone out-of-date the day it releases (if it does proceed). Nvidia has the resources and skill to be the next iPod of mobile phones... if it's done right, meaning Business (unlike iPhone) should not fall off the agenda.

[HitmanAdski]

Actually APX will most likely be used by Apple for iPhone :P

[hellzwheelz]

this isnt the i phonekiller it destroys the i phone

[azn1978]

this maybe the iphone killer!!!

[lirigzonlirigzon]

woww..!

[theviruscb]

the iPhone has the hardware to do most of that, they just opted out for 2d main menu for simplicity sake.

small demo of the 3D GFXs on the iPhone can be found by searching: 3D Mesh Rendering on iPhone/iPod Touch.

remember, Apple's paradigm is "simplicity" not "We make things more shinny then you."

eye candy is nice, but you have to wonder just how much power that thing sucks up to make the purdy effects.

i've looked it up, better for an ultra-mobile pc then a phone. the battery would be big.

[citixenKANE]

its not just making things shiny this thing can display videos in 780p HD quaility it can play Quake 3 now on a phone that is fucking amazing the iphone is a peice of shit compaired to this, i know which one i would want, anyway the lg viewty is better than iphone so iphone dosnt even come second

[kangy3213]

i still say the iphone is better

[morphmee]

Yeah... i say nokia 3310 is better then n70. Realy ...

[morphmee]

Damn!Not here...

@kangy3213

[m03ez]

N95 will sooner or later have a Quake 3 port. It already has Quake 1 and 2 running full speed with hardware accelerated Graphics. Search for "Quake n95-n2" on youtube and you'll see for yourself.

[m03ez]

Actually the Iphone has a full-blown dedicated 3D graphics chip and it's a LOT more powerful than the Nintendo DS (but not the PSP although it has a better feature set). Quake III could easily be ported to the iPhone, albeit with optimizations.

[JPQsat]

Web browser???

[tuneman82]

nvidia > apple

[microsoftaddict]

that is a awesome phone, gaming platform, gps, realy cool camera(12mp) etc etc

[mugupo]

Sony need to comeout one, they got psp, shouldn't be too hard to make a gaming phone.

[citixenKANE]

i hear there making a psp phone but thats just a rumor

[o2ama]

WOW MUTHER DOUCHE IS that a phone what ?

[JoraleMendoza]

This is going to blow the iPhone away...iPhone is so limited with everything it has and it's so unstable and slow as fuck.

[m03ez]

lol, this is not even real for God's sake! It's just a test device to get a hold of the APX 2500's hardware and software capablities. READ!! CONCEPT handset.

[xperment]

You DO have the comprehension to suggest that this is probably beta work right now? Cheerio, fuckers.

[penguisher]

Am I the only one who noticed how unresponsive that piece of crap is? I think nVidia shoulda' got with Apple.

[Semedar]

i think the guy had to tap the app twice so it will activate it, if you notice, the phone prolly just miss-interpreted the command that it was double taped.. its just a beta now so theres bound to be bugs, just be patient =P

[ONBEER]

Rubbish, they tried too hard...

[mugupo]

Iphone noting compare to this, iphone lack feature, not allowed to install much program also require very costly service fee. This phone is far better everywhere, 720p hd is amazing for cellphone for its size, but i hope battery life is good.

[manzanares28]

Iphone is a piece of shit really

[xkflash]

cant wait till this comes out.....i wanna get one :D

[santiagogc]

sucks

[bubucm8]

iphone-the-best-phone-ever-i-s­ay-i-will-die-if-my-father-doe­sn't-buy-me-one

[ashford09]

im with icebiggice it doesnt have that iphone feeling to it icons and every thing

[saintsrowplaya123]

that looks sexy!!!!

[icebiggice]

fuck it .........iphone is the best

[bluA7]

Oh god i want that!

[heathkidd]

the blogg i read may have been wrong it could be only Quake3 they got running on it... but still wooT!

[sk8erdude12890]

that is sweet it needs to come out soon

[FarmerBoY84]

Looks more flashy than usable.

[heathkidd]

it can play DOOM3 aparently

[kafka27]

not shure about doom3 but I'v seen Quake3 on it.

[Charbax]

Battery life probably is like 12 minutes running this kind of graphics.

[vishurao]

nope.

this one here is awesome when it comes to battery. You can watch HD stuff for 10+ hours :) . These graphics wont take that much of battery considering the level of power management nvidia chips have..

[leiidian]

Except it says 10 hours of 720p HD playback and 100 hours of audio

[OstiasMoscas]

"he NVIDIA APX 2500 applications processor delivers:

* The industry's first HD (720p) playback and capture capability for handheld devices.

* NVIDIA nPower™ technology, enabling over 10 hours of high-definition video playback and up to 100 hours of audio—more than four times the audio playback of the latest touch-screen phones."

and a lot more

[Mrtalkalot114]

whoaaaa the interface looks much betta then the iphone :)

[soumenkumar]

NVidia is gr8. They do everything in a gr8 way. Gr8 going.

[Suatae]

Very impressive. I WANT ONE!!!

Better hope they fix the sensitivity of that screen.

[whiskeyru]

It's not a phone, it's a device for chip capabilities presentation.

I would expect that the actual phone/device manufacturers, who's going to use this chip, will use better touchscreens. :)

[vishurao]

The screen is better, i guess shiny wasnt clicking properly. You can see how smooth the scrolling is..
