Celkon A107 Signature One, C779 launched in India

Celkon has bounced back to India with another Android smartphone called the A107 Signature One which will be accompanied by a basic phone dubbed C779. The company hasn’t mentioned anything about the price and release date details of these devices as yet.
The smartphone in question came close on the heels of the quad core 119Q HD that was introduced in the country earlier this week. It is a hybrid between a phone and a tablet as it flaunts a capacitive multi-touch screen spanning 5 inches diagonally. The driving force behind this device is a dual core chipset processing at a maximum speed of 1GHz and allows prospective customers to launch more than a single application at the same time.
It goes without saying that the handset makes the most of the Android OS, Ice Cream Sandwich v4.0 to be precise. The manufacturer hasn’t said anything about upgrading it to Jelly Bean though. Apart from 512MB of RAM, the gadget has been loaded with 512MB of onboard storage out of which 105MB is accessible to users. It is likely to tag along an expansion slot for a microSD card to ensure additional storage for hoarding digital content.
As for the cameras, interested customers will appreciate the fact that the OEM has blessed the device with two of them. An 8MP snapper with usual attributes such as auto focus, digital zoom and a recorder, rests on the back for capturing images and shooting videos, while a VGA one is fitted on the front side for facilitating video conferencing over the web.
Next up is the aforementioned feature phone, the key highlight of which is that it can be charged using an AAA battery. But such a possibility seems highly unlikely as the mobile gadget has been integrated with a relatively powerful 1800mAh battery. In addition to a 2.4-inch screen, the front panel accommodates an alphanumeric keyboard that highly simplifies typing on the run.
And if that’s not enough, the device has been embedded with dual SIM card slots to extend support to two GSM SIM cards at the same time. Its 1.3MP rear-facing shooter comes in handy for clicking pictures and recording videos. The handset operates with the assistance of the proprietary OS.
The Celkon A107 Signature One and C779 should be made available in the country this month itself.
Specifications of the Android smartphone:
- 5-inch capacitive multi-touch display
- 8MP camera, VGA front-mounted webcam
- 1GHz dual core processor
- Android Ice Cream Sandwich 4.0 platform
- 512MB of RAM
- 512MB of onboard storage

Notion Ink Adam II tablet coming in June with dual displays



Remember Notion Ink, the Bangalore-based startup that came into the limelight with the Android tablet, Adam? Well, looks like the company is back after a long hiatus and silence.
The company has changed its homepage to a banner which reads "Busy creating. Coming back soon." And now a report states that Notion Ink is going to launch the Adam II next month, with a unique design that has two displays. Well, colour us intrigued!
Notion Ink's spokeperson told NextBigWhat that the design of the tablet will be a huge talking point, just like the Adam. "The main focus this time is on the design of the device as compared to specifications. Specifications have saturated now. Adding more cores doesn't mean anything. We will have a very unique design with two displays!"
