We practically know everything about the Motorola Moto E now. The companys newest Android smartphone is expected to slow below the already low-priced Moto G.

Indian online retailer Flipkart, which has exclusive rights to sell the Moto G and Moto X in India, has now started teasing the Moto E on their social media accounts.

The teaser images dont mention the name but the outline of the phone matches all the leaked images we have seen. Flipkart is also suggesting replacing low-end feature phones with the Moto E, indicating a very low price point. The website says 4 days to go for the new Moto, meaning the phone will go on sale on May 14, even if the actual launch is on May 13.

Samsung and LG may start making quantum dot screens

Tags: LG , Samsung , Misc

Korean news agency ETNews is reporting that Samsung and LG are looking to start mass producing Quantum Dot displays. Quantum Dots promise a wider color gamut (by up to 50%) than rival OLED displays, combined with increased brightness and lower power consumption.

Quantum Dot displays are like a hybrid between LCD and OLED displays. They dont use regular LEDs for backlighting, but instead uses blue LEDs which excite two kinds of quantum dots that produce red and green light respectively. Each pixel gets its own LED like in OLED, leading to the improved power efficiency.

This tech has been used for a while in Sonys Triluminos displays and LG has been collaborating with QD Vision, the MIT offshoot behind the quantum dot technology, since 2010 while Samsung has been dabbling with quantum dots since 2011.
