Huawei Honor, un bel regalo di Natale
Chiariamo subito un concetto: non voglio fare concorrenza al nostro grande Domenico aka V_Veneto); l’ironia è più pane per i suoi denti che non per i miei e poi io non riuscirei a farvi ridere come fa lui, troppo forte. Il preambolo mi serve per esprimere la convinzione che una famosa ditta di cui non possiamo fare il nome per paura di essere denunciati, che ha sede a Cupertino in California, che ha per logo una mela morsicata potrebbe risentirsi molto per questo nuovo Huawei Honor. Forse il produttore si salverà solo perchè in Cina, come sappiamo, il concetto di brevetto è quanto di più aleatorio possa esistere. Il suo arrivo è previsto per il periodo natalizio e le caratteristiche tecniche ne fanno uno di quei prodotti destinati a “spaccare” il mercato, soprattutto se il prezzo rimarrà di livello “cinese”. Processore single-core da 1,4 GHz, display WVGA da 4 pollici 854×480, 512 Mb di RAM, 4 Gb di memoria incrementabili con MicroSD, fotocamera posteriore da 8 Mpx e frontale da 2 Mpx, batteria da 1900 mAh e supporto a tutte le principali reti mondiali. Dopo il break il comunicato ufficiale (in inglese).
Huawei Honor, a nice Christmas gift

“Huawei Honor encapsulates the Huawei brand – it features simple-to-use, advanced technology that allows people to share and connect easily. Honor provides a package of features that elevates the smartphone user experience, including an ultra-long battery life, so critical to the performance of smartphones but yet is often downplayed,” said Victor Xu, chief marketing officer of Huawei Device. “Consumers now have a high-performing smartphone that lets them communicate, connect, entertain and share content for an extended period of time without compromising on looks, technology or style.”
Honor comes with an exclusive Huawei user interface which is easier to customize and manage, as well as a dynamic weather widget. Honor also features a Gyroscope which enables a better gaming experience. The smartphone is DLNA-certified which ensures interoperability with other DLNA-certified devices such as digital cameras, game consoles and TVs. This makes it easier for consumers to share their digital photos, music and videos between different DLNA-certified devices. The DLNA (Digital Living Network Alliance) is a non-profit organization with more than 250 member companies in the mobile, consumer electronics, PC, and service provider industries. According to ABI Research data, as of 2010, more than 440 million DLNA-certified devices have been installed in homes.
Honor will be commercially available in “Classic Black” in Asia-Pacific, China, Russia and the Middle East in Q4, 2011. Honor will be released in more colors closer to the Christmas holidays.
