NTT DoCoMo’s summer mobile lineup is all about battery life, colors and LTE

While the semi-annual parade of new smartphone models at NTT DoCoMo often reveals some unexpected devices, this summer it had a bumper crop: we’ve already seen the new Sony Xperia A, Sharp’s Aquos Phone Zeta and Aquos Pad SH-08E plus a Galaxy S4 in “arctic blue.” Seven more phones round out the lineup and NTT DoCoMo is trumpeting 2,100 mAh minimum batteries, LTE, NFC and quad-core processors for the entire gamut. Other standout models include Fujitsu’s 5.2-inch, 1080P Arrows NX F-06E, a model with a 16-megapixel camera you’ll likely never see stateside, Panasonic’s Eluga V P-06D with a 4.7-inch 1080P screen and a whopping 2,600 mAh battery, and Disney Mobile’s F-07D, which should be an endurance wonder with a 720P screen and 2,600mAh cell. Naturally, there’s a rainbow of new hues for most of the models, which will roll out over the summer in Japan — click the source link PDF for detailed specs or check the PR after the jump.

T-Mobile schedules new product event on October 29th

TMobile holding new product launch October 29th

T-Mobile has just sent out invites to the press for a product launch event on the evening of October 29th. We weren’t given any clues as to what this new item (or items) could be — aside from the fact that it will include T-Mobile’s full fall lineup — but we certainly have a few suspicions considering the timing of such an event. Microsoft and Google are both holding press events earlier in the day, after all, which means we’re either going to be treated to T-Mobile’s Windows Phone 8 lineup or (this is less likely, but anything’s possible) a T-Mobile Nexus. Feel free to put your wagers in the comments below, and we’ll work to sort out the craziness that will most certainly ensue that day.
