Toshiba Unveils The TG01 Smartphone

Wed, 04 Feb 2009

Toshiba has taken the wraps off the TG01 smartphone, which it promises will "revolutionize the mobile entertainment world".

The touchscreen smartphone boasts an impressive array of features including a 1Ghz Qualcomm Snapdragon processor – the fastest ever processor to appear in a mobile phone – and a massive 4.1" 800×480 VGA display, built using technology from Toshiba’s Regza TV series.

Measuring at just 9.9mm thick, the TG01 will also become the slimmest touchscreen phone on the market will released across Europe this summer.

According to Toshiba, the inclusion of the Qualcomm Snapdragon processor will give it the power to run multiple programs in the Windows Mobile 6.1 (6.5 when it ships) operating system without hindering its ultra-fast performance.

Other impressive features include a virtual trackpad to navigate the phone, a "G-sensor" that allows the mobile to be tilted around a central axis, and full Adobe Flash support allowing users to watch any flash video from the web.

The phone also comes equipped with HSDPA 3G and AGPS, Wi-Fi, GPS, Bluetooth, a microSD card to expand the device’s 512MB of memory (to 32GB), and a 3.5mm headphone socket.

The TG01 handset is expected to be at the premium end of the price range, although Toshiba stressed the price would be "very competitive".
