Japan, probably the most technologically advanced country in the world, continues to amaze tech-savvy and alike with new gadgets that can easily make any geek drool.
It appears that major carrier NTT Docomo is readying Japan’s first two devices for V-High multimedia broadcasting services. Both devices are powered by Android platforms, though there are no details on which version of Google’s operating system they will run at launch.
The two Android-based mobile devices, the “docomo NEXT series AQUOS PHONE SH-06D” smartphone and the “docomo Tablet MEDIAS TAB N-06D,” will available for purchase in Japan sometime in March and April, respectively.
There’s no word on the pricing options yet, but there’s no chance that either of these two devices will be available outside the country. These were specifically designed to work with a service that will only be available in Japan.
In this regard, the carrier also confirmed customers who purchase any of the two devices will be able to watch mmbi, Inc.’s “NOTTV.” This is a mobile multimedia broadcasting station, which is supposed to be operational starting April 1.
Obviously, both devices are waterproof and compatible with both NTT Docomo’s Osaifu-Keitai mobile wallet and with one-seg mobile TV services.
The SH-06D Android phone boasts a large a 4.5-inch HD capacitive touchscreen display with 3D capabilities.
It is equipped with a powerful dual-core processor clocked at 1.2 GHz and is delivered with a tabletop holder with built-in antenna, in the sales package. This holder enables users to view multimedia broadcasts while the smartphone is charging.
Dubbed the world’s thinnest (9.9 mm) waterproof tablet, the N-06D comes with support for DOCOMO’s “Xi” LTE service (Japanese version of LTE).
Furthermore, the tablet sports a 7-inch WXGA capacitive touchscreen display with HD resolution, and high-quality audio speakers. It is powered by the same 1.2 GHz dual core CPU.
