Preview of the Upcoming Samsung Galaxy S Duos

The Korean smartphone manufacturer Samsung announced a new device named Galaxy S Duos in July. After months of waiting, it's believed that this phone will be launched at first in Europe next month.

From what we have seen above, as a new member of the high-end Galaxy S series, the Galaxy S Duos has some similarities to its brother Galaxy S III: rounded edges, smooth ceramic-like finish. Of course it's smaller and lighter than the Galaxy S III. Now let's have a glance at the specifications and discuss more about the features.

Specifications of Samsung Galaxy S Duos
The Galaxy S Duos is equipped with new Android 4.0 Ice Cream sandwich OS,which makes it easy for people using in both professional and personal lives. It's also believed to receive an update to 4.1, Jelly Bean.

This smartphone owns a 4-inch TFT touch screen in 480*800 resolution, a 1GHz processor and a 5 megapixel camera with geotagging on the back. What's more, the handset supports a service called ChatON,which is used to connect the Samsung users and start group chats.

So what's the highlight of this smartphone? The answer is: dual SIM functionality. There are two SIM card slots in the phone and available for users to chat on Carrier A while still fielding incoming calls on Carrier B. This feature is named "Dual SIM Always on" by Samsung. As what I mentioned above,this phone may be more suitable for businessman who owns two numbers but feels tired of bringing 2 cellphones at the same time.

It's quite common and usual for a businessman to view PowerPoints on his smartphone. Like the other devices,there's no difficulty that users can find free or paid office apps in Android Market,such as Quickoffice,OpenOffice and Kingsoft Office. Besides installing apps,is there any other way to play PPT on Galaxy S Duos? Yes indeed. We can convert PPT to Galaxy S Duos suitable videos. Just use a converter and do it at ease!

Though the phone will release in September, price issue is currently unknown. We'll still focus on this smartphone and get more details.

Powerpoint Backgrounds of the Marvel Superhero: Ant-Man

"Are you a fan of superhero comics? Do you go to cinema and watch superhero movies?"
As a matter of fact, I rarely watched superhero movies or read comic books in the past. But I was shocked and deeply attracted after watching series of movies: Iron Man(1 & 2) , The Incredible Hulk, Thor, Captain America: The First Avenger and the blockbuster Marvel's The Avengers. I started to fall in love with them and watched these movies for several times. Now I'm a new fan of superheroes although it's a little difficult for me to distinguish them one by one. Sometimes I would even introduce these movies to friends by making PowerPoints and converting them to videos.

Among those superhero movies, both from DC and Marvel, Marvel's the Avengers is my favourite. A movie gathers 6 heroes from their solo films (except Hawkeye & Black Widow).They saves the world once again and hits more than $1,400,000,000 in the box office. Since the succeed of the Avengers, Walt Disney Announced a project called Marvel Cinematic Universe Phase Two in the San Diego Comic-Con 2012,includes several sequels of the previous movies.

That is to say, more new superhero movies will be produced and added to the Avengers 2(unofficial name). One of them would be the "Ant-Man".

Who's the Ant-Man? According to the introduction from Wikipedia, he's a biophysicist named Henry 'Hank' Pym. One day, Pym discovered a chemical substance that would allow the user to alter his size. Armed with a helmet that could control ants, Pym would shrink down to the size of an insect to become the mystery-solving Ant-Man. Pym decided to defeat crime with his abilities. Sounds interesting, isn't it? This film will be directed by Edgar Wright and rumored to be released in late 2014.

Perhaps it's still to early to talk about the Ant-Man movie, but how about knowing more about that? Here I collect some PowerPoint backgrounds and share them to all of you. Enjoy!!
