Whereas Apple could once build their new iPhone by simply doing whatever competing handsets already did but better (or, at least, thats their goal), the number of spec-sheet-friendly discrepancies between Apple's hardware and any other major smartphone is approaching zero.
Sized at 72 inches, the Infinia 72LEX9 is apparently available from today in Korea, and it features a number of impressive specs.
If anything, I'm concerned by the growing number of interdependent specs that seem poised to have a significant impact on the Web and yet are being defined outside of formal standards bodies in closed processes funded by big companies.
Sadly, there's no pricing or launch date details to be had — but on the upside, it confirms a number of the specs we'd heard before (Android 2.2, the WiFi Hotspot functionality, the clamshell form factor, etc).
For those who want to build their own Cardboard viewers (either privately or commercially), Google is also releasing a number of new specs today that were designed for specific cutting tools.
The Moto Z Force, meanwhile, sports a number of the same specs, but adds a 3500 mAh battery and a 21-megapixel camera to the mix.
The Google Nexus 4 is an LG-manufactured device, which boasts a number of top-tier specs, including a 4.7-inch diagonal screen with 1280×768 resolution, a Qualcomm Snapdragon S4 quad-core mobile processor, an 8MP rear camera and 2GB of RAM.
That said, the PS4 has been a worthwhile competitor for the Xbox One, with a number of exclusive titles, excellent specs, and a price that never fell below $349.
We've seen a number of phones with better specs launch at lower prices, including T-Mobile's 8-megapixel camera-packin', dual-core processor-toutin' myTouch 4G Slide (which retails at $199 with contract).
