Lumia 1330 the teaser Microsofts official coming soon
Confirmations on the Lumia 1330, the successor to the Lumia 1320, since Microsoft released the first official teaser with the words: coming soon.
Shortly before the end of 2014 came the first rumors rather convincing that Microsoft was working on the new Lumia 1330 phablet running windows phone.
To date, these rumors have been confirmed by Microsoft that on the official website of Indonesia showed a teaser that would incorporate the Lumia 1330 stating explicitly that the model will come very soon; we do not know in terms of days as it will miss its official debut, but now we are sure that there is.
For now, Microsoft with the same teaser does not provide any official information on the hardware features of the new product, but we know that previous rumors say Lumia 1330 will have a multimedia sector improved compared to the current Lumia 1320, as we expect the use of a 14-megapixel rear camera instead of the 5-megapixel front camera and a 5 megapixel camera, which will be better than the 3 megapixel model already on sale.
There will be improvements from the point of view of the chipset used; In fact, you should move from a dual core Snapdragon S4 paired with 512 MB of RAM to a new quad-core Snapdragon 400 chipset and 1GB of RAM, which should increase moderately overall performance of the product.
The display should be smaller than the Lumia 1320; Lumia 1330 should in fact mount a panel 5.7 inch (and not 6 inches) with the same resolution 1280 x 720 pixels which would allow increasing the density per pixel from 245 PPI to 258 PPI.
The teaser, as well as you can see from the image, refers to a version dual sim, or capable of handling two SIM phone at the same time; if the Lumia 1330 is the version dual sim probably the Lumia 1335 will be the single version sim; is scheduled for the version is single sim dual sim 3G variant only but also a variant with support for 4G LTE connectivity; most likely the 3G version will be sold in the less important, while LTE will arrive in Europe and America.
Microsoft could probably launch the new Lumia 1330 during the MWC 2015 in Barcelona, but there are still major clues about this; must wait until the beginning of March to see if this will be possible or not.

Motorola Moto E 2015 official image unveiled
A first image would reveal the alleged Motorola Moto E 2015, which is the second generation of the first Moto E that perhaps this year will become a smartphone midrange low with LTE connectivity.
Some rumors a few weeks ago, right at the end of December 2014, indicated that in the first months of 2015 would come on the market, the second generation of the Motorola Moto E, and were already shown some interesting changes in terms of hardware.
In confirmation of this news was posted on the web a first image render that would incorporate the Motorola Moto E 2015 with LTE connectivity, which will be one of the main new features of this product, moving from outdated 3G to 4G.
On paper, the second-generation model Motorola Moto E 2015 will also have a slightly larger display that you should settle on the 4.3-inch diagonal with a resolution of 960 x 540, since there are previous rumors of a Motorola Moto E Styx that display with 4, 3 inches and the same resolution.
From the point of view of performance there should be changes here as well; chipset that will use the 2015 model should pass it by a dual-core architecture with a quad core, even if we do not know if it will be a chip with support for 64bit or not, but the possibility of using a Snapdragon 410 with four core Cortex A53 would not be a remote possibility; provided 1GB of RAM.
Motorola Moto E will surely since its debut as the operating system Android 5.0 Lollipop latest version, or at least the penultimate and we hope that will have a list price very similar to the current Moto E, so it could be about 130-140 euro.
We do not know if Motorola decides to show to the public some of its new smartphones for 2015; In fact we are also waiting for news on the Moto G 2015 that you should have an edge over the Moto E in the middle range.
We’ll see if during the MWC 2015 in Barcelona to be held in March, the Chinese company / American decide to make a nice surprise to the public announced two new smartphones; there is no certainty, but the hope is the last to die.
