Newly Released Motorola RAZR i vs. LG Optimus G vs. Samsung Galaxy S 3

Motorola’s brand new Motorola RAZR i is the first Intel-based smartphone that comes with abundant eye-catching features to excite users, like its 2GB processor with Intel Atom 32nm technology, 8MP main camera, etc. The inside 2GB processor has been a breakup in smartphones. It's an Intel Atom 32nm single-core magic with hyperthreading that should stand a fight against today's dual-cores and quad-cores. The 2GHz impressive number is reached only when thermal conditions allow it, though, with the base clock remaining at the 1.3GHz standard for the Medfield chip. Intel is also providing the HSPA+ baseband and that means no LTE version of the device, so obviously it's unlikely to see this phone in the States. Instead, you'll get the similar, but ARM-based Droid RAZR M on Verizon. We expect the first Intel-based phones for the U.S. soon, probably early next year.

Here, I have got a comparison among Motorola RAZR i, LG Optimus G and Samsung Galaxy S III in detailed specs and features to provide you a general idea about these three amazing smartphones. Check the specs below and stay tuned for more.

Nintendo to Launch Wii U Game Console with Special GamePad since November

On Thursday, Nintendo officially announced online that its new Wii U game console will be on sale starting on November 18^th in the USA and November 30^th in Europe, while the sale in Japan will be on Dec. 8^th. The company said the new console will be in time for the crucial holiday season, available in two versions: 8GB internal memory version at $299.99 and 32GB internal memory version for $344.99.

The new Wii U game console could meantime be used as a home entertainment center while connected with streaming services. It allows users to stream video content from Hulu, Amazon and Netflix to their TV sets. The touchpad will show additional content, such as box scores and statistics for sports broadcasts, a timeline of key moments for TV shows, and previews for movie services.

Both versions of the Wii U come with a single "GamePad", which is similar to a full-fledged handheld console in itself, with a touchscreen, motion detection, camera and stylus. Its small screen can be used to supplement games played on a larger TV or serve as the main display.

In game demonstrations, the company showed how the controller can be used for two-player gaming, with one user playing on the main TV screen and another on the GamePad. The main console will use NFC (near field communication) technology that is widely used in mobile payment systems, as well as an expanded online system that includes game play and social networks based around various titles.

As for the games, the Nintendo of America President Reggie Fils-Aime stressed that the console will have a full complement of games early in its launch. The lack of games available for Nintendo's 3DS handheld launch last year was a major reason that device stumbled after it went on sale, forcing the game company to slash prices. He said over 50 games would be available from the launch through the end of March 2013, such as a new version of its classic "Super Mario Brothers" franchise, "Metroid", "Call of Duty Black Ops 2," a "Transformer" title, the successor to the "Bayonetta" combat game, etc.

The game company has long tried to market its hardware at less extreme gamers, featuring family play and titles aimed at women. But the titles show it also intends to pursue the "hard-core" game market along with rivals Sony and Microsoft.

The ability to use the Wii U as a home entertainment center means Nintendo will compete with companies like Sony, which has emphasized its networked music and video offerings' availability through its PlayStation franchise.
