The Honda Amaze will be a significant step for the company in India as it will be its first diesel car in India. The car will also be available with the 1.2 litre i-VTEC petrol engine that currently does duty in the Jazz and Brio hatchbacks.

Apart from being the company’s first diesel car in India, the Honda Amaze will also be slotted in that lucrative sub-four meter entry-level sedan segment, where it will compete against the Maruti Suzuki Swift DZire and the Tata Indigo eCS.

Honda has plonked a new 1.5-litre oil burner on the Amaze. This engine gets the i-DTEC moniker and it is a derivative of the new 1.6-litre Civic diesel engine that just got launched in Europe recently. This is an all-aluminium engine and Honda also claims it to be the lightest.

The Verdict : Honda's First diesel sedan got a great juice in it ,packs a lot of features , decent comfort and  good driving dynamics

SAMSUNG GALAXY S3:Leaked image has hit the web, claiming to be taken from the instructional manual for Samsung's Galaxy S3 handset and showing off the handsets technical specifications. Take a look at the picture above to see what's rumoured to be launching come Samsung's big reveal on May 3rd.Though Samsung have already revealed that Exynos 4 Quad processor 1.5GHz,so far we've been told to expect a 12MP sensor, not the 8 megapixel snapper with auto-focus and LED flash listed here.The 4.8-inch Super AMOLED MIPI (C-Type) would fit the bill nicely.

HTC ONE X:The HTC One X is a superb Android smartphone that packs in just about every key feature you can think off.The HD screen is the best we've ever seen, its quad core processor is mighty fast, its camera impressive and its design is reasonably smart. However, a few ergonomics and design issues just take the edge off enough to leave us a tiny bit disappointed. Nonetheless, it's currently one of if not the best smartphones on the market. 

iPhone 4 VS iPhone 4S

It is finally happen. The latest generation of Iphone is out, but it is not the iPhone 5 as many of us speculated. All the hype about the most up to date generation of the Iphone comes to an end with slight disappointment from the consumers as well as from the Wall Street. Well, we can see that the shares drop to 350ish level when it announced the iPhone 4S.


So, what is the most closely kept secret about the iPhone 5? There isn't one - yet. The new iPhone might be a little bit faster, has a better camera and allows you to sync content without needing a computer. It includes a futuristic, voice-activated service that responds to spoken commands and questions such as "Do I need an umbrella today?". But the real question is, do the current iPhone users need to upgrade to the iPhone 4S?

Anyway, back to the topic. I am comparing the iPhone 4 and iPhone 4S at the moment, and will be comparing the iPhone 4S with the current "king" of smartphone, Samsung Galaxy S2 in the near future.
