2012 Kawasaki Ninja 650

Bajaj Auto launched Kawasaki Ninja 650 (Non ABS) today in India at INR 4,99,835/- which commands INR 40k premium over outgoing model.

Bookings start from 14th August and bike will be delivered within 4-5 weeks period from the date of booking. 

It is weird Bajaj chose to launch 2012 version here while 2013 version is being launched internationally. 

2013 Ninja 250R

2013 Ninja 250R - Baby Ninja Infused with ZX-10R DNA 

Kawasaki has given the Baby Ninja much needed makeover. The 2013 Ninja 250R sports redesigned bodywork which resembles its bigger sibling ZX-10R. Now it looks much sharper and angular. Another big welcome change is new instrument cluster which hosts digital speedometer and analog tachometer.

Changes in the engine parallel twin engine are new pistons, cylinder, crank case along with the revamped fuel injection system with dual throttle valves. These changes aims to give the Ninja more torque in low and mid range.

Kawasaki has introduced three special edition duel tone coloring scheme for the new 250. What differentiates special edition from normal color tone bikes apart from aesthetics is ABS. Yes, these special edition bikes will come with ABS as standard. ABS model weight 174 Kg while normal model weight 172Kg. 

If Bajaj manage to get it localized in India and price it around 2.2L then it will be a masterstroke for Kawasaki, otherwise 3L+ pricing will keep it in extra premium bracket where only "Lucky" few could afford it.

Samsung Galaxy S III

The Samsung Galaxy S III

Most anticipated Android Phone of the year is launched on May 3rd in London. Here are the specs this beast possess up its sleeve.

Screen: 4.8” Super Amoled HD display


Storage: 16/32/64GB depending on model, plus expandable MicroSD card


Cloud storage: 50GB Dropbox for two years


Colour: Pebble blue or marble white


Battery: 2,100mAh (wireless charging optional extra)


Camera: 8MP rear; 1.9 MP front


Resolution: 720 x 1280 px (306ppi)


RAM: 1GB


Dimensions: 136.6 x 70.6 x 8.55 mm


Weight: 133g


Operating System: Android 4.0.4


Processor: Exynos 4412 Quad (1.4GHz)






Eye tracking and wireless charging features are step forward. Samsung has given more importance to software part too along with the hardware. And we cant wait to see how good it perform.

The Pentile Display instead of normal RGB could offend some people who look out for microscopic details. Given the 306ppi, Pentile/RGB arrangement should not matter much since its hardly noticeable to eyes.

Design was never Samsung's forte and Galaxy S III carry forward that tradition. Phone looks just average specially when compared with HTC One X and Sony Xperia NXT series. Good addition here which was missing in earlier models is Notification LED. I feel the design will grow over you once you start using it.

Camera is 8MP with zero shutter lag. We expected 12MP shooter here, but if the optics on S III are good then who are we to complain. Remember its not always about MegaPixels.

Hardware under the hood is impressive. The Quad Core Exynos 4412 built on 32nm offers almost the double processing power than previous Exynos while saving 20% power.

The Mali400MP4 GPU offers 66% increase in 3D performance over the SII, which is significant. It even outdo the powerful PowerVR SGX 543MP2 GPU of the iPhone 4S and closes on to PowerVR SGX 543MP4 GPU of the new iPad.

Samsung Galaxy S III Retains the microSD card slot as well as removable battery, which is a good thing.

Latest trend of offering limited storage and non-removable battery is restrictive and should be done away with.

Overall, this phone is an evolution rather than a revolution. It is a decent upgrade over S II, but we still feel few things could have been better.

So, If you are in the market for the greatest android phone, Samsung Galaxy S III and HTC One X are the two phones you should consider. Choose HTC One X if you prefer better design and Build Quality. If you love the SAMOLED HD screen, need raw processing power, extra storage,removable battery and better developer support then S III is better choice. Overall I would rate Galaxy S III just above the One X.

Kudos to the HTC, they are back in the game. Samsung needs to up their game to retain their title.
