ITG xpPhone 2 to get some Windows eight love

Let's be honest: with the size of a brick and a relatively quick battery life, it is no shock that ITG's xpPhone hasn't fairly dominated the smartphone market since its launch back in November. In fact, we've not even seen one in the wild, and we actually wouldn't have missed it if there ever was one on the street. That said, ITG hasn't given up, as the company's just announced its second-era Windows-powered smartphone. The rationale? Effectively, interestingly sufficient, ITG prefers Home windows' larger vary of appropriate software in comparison with these of cellular OSes, specifically Android and iOS. Let's just go away it at that for now.

Simply dubbed the xpPhone 2, this beast of a QWERTY slider packs a 1.6GHz Intel Atom Z530 chip, together with 2GB RAM, up to 112GB of SSD storage, 4.3-inch display and compatibility with both Windows 7 and Windows eight -- obviously the latter OS will depend upon its final launch date. Not solely has battery life been bumped up to round 18 hours of call time or forty six days on standby, however the cellphone's additionally been slimmed down to 140mm x 73mm x 17.5mm, which is a large enchancment compared to its cumbersome predecessor. With the contact-friendly Windows 8 on board together with a non-underclocked CPU, we've got a feeling that the xpPhone 2 will a minimum of fare significantly better than Fujitsu's F-07C; as for the rest, we will see when it comes out in January next year. And no, it probably will not run Crysis.
