With MWC 2012 drawing near, more details of HTC’s upcoming devices have surfaced. Firstly the model names are said to be finalised with the quad-core HTC Edge/Endeavor ending up as HTC One X. The other device which is a dual-core HTC Ville will be known as the HTC One S. Both “X” and “S” sounds very similar when pronounced, so make sure you’re referring to the right device if you’re getting one.
According to the latest scoop, the HTC One X will go buttonless and shall utilise on-screen buttons on Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich. This makes the front design clean like the Galaxy Nexus. In terms of storage, it will come with 32GB but it doesn’t come with an expandable micro SD slot. We wonder if this is going to be a trend since newer smart phones such as Galaxy Nexus and even the Xperia S are dropping the expansion slot.
On the display side, the 4.7″ 720p screen is said to be using Super LCD. Other revealed details include NFC, 8MP backlit camera, utilising micro SIM and a 1,800mAh capacity battery. Hit up the source link for the full scoop.

Samsung Galaxy Tab 7.7 is officially on sale in Malaysia today with the retail price of RM2,099. If you’re still wondering, the Galaxy Tab 7.7 that we are getting comes with 16GB of internal storage. A few days ago, DiGi had started its pre-order for the Galaxy Tab 7.7 from as low as RM1,399 on its DG Smart Plans. Now Celcom has revealed its bundled pricing which starts from RM1,409.
For the Galaxy Tab 7.7, Celcom has moved away from its usual Celcom Exec with bolt-on data bundling by offering Celcom Broadband upfront with Pay As You Go voice. This means the subscription is meant for data while calls/sms are charged separately as you use, which is the similar model as DiGi’s Smart Plan.
There are 3 plans on offer – RM48 for 1.5GB, RM68 for 4GB and RM98 for 6GB, which is pretty competitive. Calls are charged at 15 sen/minute while SMS are charged at 10 sen each. You have an option to get the Galaxy Tab 7.7 with either 12 months or 24 months duration. The lowest price of RM1,409 is tied with 24 months of RM98 (6GB) plan. For those that want to commit less with shorter duration, the Galaxy Tab 7.7 can be yours for RM1,739 with 12 months contract of RM48 (1.5GB) plan.
Depending on which plan option, they are giving 10 months of special rebate. For the early birds, Celcom is giving out a free bookcase worth RM249 for the first 300 at selected outlets.
