The Nokia X is available immediately, in countries including  India, for 89 Euros, while the Nokia X+ and the Nokia XL will be available in the second quarter of this year for 99 Euros and 109 Euros respectively.

The Nokia XL, on the other hand, flaunts a bigger display – 5-inch WVGA (800×480 pixels) display — and gets better cameras– 5-megapixel rear camera and 2-megapixel front-facing camera.

HOW TO UPDATE GALAXY S4 TO KITKAT 4.4.2 BY ODIN

NOTE:Before starting the installation process, it is recommended to perform a back-up first. Also, proceed only at your own risk as the IBT media is not responsible for any damages incurred during the process.

INSTRUCTIONS

6 - Ascertain that the only ones checked are the "Auto Reboot" and "F. Reset Time" options. Then extract the downloaded firmware .zip file, and then you'll see a software file having .tar.md5.

7 - Next click the PDA button in the Odin screen then choose the firmware file with .tar.md5 extension that looks like this (I9500XXDLJ5_I9500ODDDLI7_INU.tar.md5).

8 - After that, press the Start Button to start the installation, which may take some time.  You would see "PASS" message in the ID:COM port with green background when the installation is done.

GALAXY S5 HANDS ON VIDEO

Having spent our fair share of time with the Samsung Galaxy S5 we keep bring you all the details on the latest flagship by the Korean company and now it’s time for the hands-on videos.

GALAXY S5 IS NOW OFFICIAL

We have all been waiting for the announcement of Galaxy S5 smartphone from Samsung,and now finally its official. The device looks little slimmer and larger than the previous model Galaxy S4, it is also worth noting that the company has incorporated the awkward looking micro USB 3 port in the device just like the Galaxy Note 3

SIZE COMPARISON OF THE GALAXY S5

The design of the phone is completely revamped although the front looks like any other Galaxy Smartphone. The rear panel of the phone has a texture with dots on it. Another thing worth noting is that the Galaxy S5 has a slightly bigger home button compared to other Galaxy devices, well that may be due to the built-in finger print scanner that’s embedded in the home button.

The bottom of the phone has the Multi-tasking button, Home button and the back key. Only the home button is physical one and rest 2 are capacitive touch buttons

Samsung Galaxy S5 at a glance:

• Form factor: Water-resistant bar phone, IP67 certification
• General: 2G, 3G and 4G LTE connectivity
• Dimensions: 142 x 72.5 x 8.1mm, 145 g
• Display: 5.1" 16M-color Super AMOLED HD capacitive touchscreen with a resolution of 1920 x 1080 pixels (431ppi)
• Chipset: Snapdragon 800 MSM8974-AC
• CPU: 2.5GHz Krait 400
• GPU: Adreno 330
• RAM: 2GB
• OS: Android 4.4.2 (KitKat)
• Memory: 16/32GB storage, microSD card slot
• Still camera: 16 megapixel auto-focus camera
• Video camera: UHD (2160p) video recording
• Connectivity: Wi-Fi a/b/g/n/ac, Wi-Fi hotspot, Bluetooth 4.0, microUSB 3.0 with MHL, GPS receiver with A-GPS and GLONASS, 3.5mm audio jack, NFC, Infrared port
• Battery: 2800mAh
• Heart rate monitor
• Fingerprint scanner
• Additional sensors: humidity sensor, temperature sensor

The screen grew up only a bit and it kept the 1080p resolution rather than going to QHD.

The camera does, however, record UHD video - Samsung's initial information was for 1080p, but we can now confirm it's really 4K UHD (2160p).

Samsung does maintain the clockspeed advantage with a rare Snapdragon 800 chipset and while the fingerprint scanner was no surprise, the heart rate monitor certainly is.

TouchWiz was a bit of a surprise too. We got pumped up for a brand new flat version of Samsung's custom UI.

The back of the device is a new iteration of Samsung's leather-like plastic, with what looks like perforated holes. It only looks like it though, the Galaxy S5 is IP67 certified
