The memory is also cut down at 16Gb . <br /><br>The phone is expected to run Android 4.2.2 .<br /><br><br /><br>The price of the phone is expected too be around €400 ($500-600) <br /><br>This seems a good phone for those who can't afford the giant version.

For instance, if you search for "Pantera", Dash selects "Music", "References" and some other categories. The categories selected automatically by Dash can be changed so you can manually select or unselect some categories:</div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-DY0zN1YiMwg/UbHcGt873aI/AAAAAAAAPcs/JKoGFZtr2b4/s1600/unity-smart-scopes-pantera.png" imageanchor="1" rel="image_group" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="Ubuntu 13.10 Unity Smart Scopes" border="0" height="179" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-DY0zN1YiMwg/UbHcGt873aI/AAAAAAAAPcs/JKoGFZtr2b4/s320/unity-smart-scopes-pantera.png" title="Ubuntu 13.10 Unity Smart Scopes" width="320" /></a></div><br /><div style="text-align: justify;">Each category has multiple sources (scopes) and for example, selecting the "Reference" category will select the "Wikipedia", "Dictionary" and "Zotero" sources. Just like the categories, the sources can also be selected / deselected manually.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">Furthermore, <b>most of the scopes come with Dash Previews</b>, allowing you to take a quick look at a Wikipedia article for instance, see the detailed weather forecast for a city and so on:</div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-Kx3OYAPyJz4/UbHdWC0sP6I/AAAAAAAAPdM/0EJBuAUKd18/s1600/saucy-weather-preview.png" imageanchor="1" rel="image_group" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="Ubuntu 13.10 Unity Smart Scopes" border="0" height="180" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-Kx3OYAPyJz4/UbHdWC0sP6I/AAAAAAAAPdM/0EJBuAUKd18/s320/saucy-weather-preview.png" title="Ubuntu 13.10 Unity Smart Scopes" width="320" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-M-8lFmNaA6k/UbHcXDcQ95I/AAAAAAAAPc0/ff7rOtl5H1s/s1600/unity-smart-scopes-wiki.png" imageanchor="1" rel="image_group" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="Ubuntu 13.10 Unity Smart Scopes" border="0" height="180" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-M-8lFmNaA6k/UbHcXDcQ95I/AAAAAAAAPc0/ff7rOtl5H1s/s320/unity-smart-scopes-wiki.png" title="Ubuntu 13.10 Unity Smart Scopes" width="320" /></a></div><br /><div style="text-align: justify;">The Dash Previews for the new scopes still need some polish - as you can see above, the Wikipedia icon doesn't look too good in the preview -, but they work pretty great already.</div><br /><div style="text-align: justify;"><b>The scopes can be individually enabled or disabled from the Applications Lens</b>, by selecting "Search plugins" and then opening the preview for the plugin/scope you want to enable or disable:</div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-Lotx7PIYgmI/UbHcricdVyI/AAAAAAAAPc8/Fj6Zv2mWy-0/s1600/ubuntu13.10-unity-smart-scopes-enable-previews.png" imageanchor="1" rel="image_group" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="Ubuntu 13.10 Unity Smart Scopes" border="0" height="178" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-Lotx7PIYgmI/UbHcricdVyI/AAAAAAAAPc8/Fj6Zv2mWy-0/s320/ubuntu13.10-unity-smart-scopes-enable-previews.png" title="Ubuntu 13.10 Unity Smart Scopes" width="320" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-zzpJye_awzo/UbHcr_bn_KI/AAAAAAAAPdA/pmDzV9HrNWM/s1600/ubuntu13.10-unity-smart-scopes-enable.png" imageanchor="1" rel="image_group" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="Ubuntu 13.10 Unity Smart Scopes" border="0" height="178" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-zzpJye_awzo/UbHcr_bn_KI/AAAAAAAAPdA/pmDzV9HrNWM/s320/ubuntu13.10-unity-smart-scopes-enable.png" title="Ubuntu 13.10 Unity Smart Scopes" width="320" /></a></div><br /><br /><h2>Video: Unity Smart Scopes in Ubuntu 13.10 Saucy Salamander</h2><br />Below you can watch a quick Unity Smart Scopes demo video which I've recorded in Ubuntu 13.10 Saucy Salamander today:<br /><br /><center><iframe allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" height="315" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/zzXvZt0TUCg" width="560"></iframe><br />(<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zzXvZt0TUCg">direct video link</a>)</center><br /><br /><div style="text-align: justify;">Besides this feature, there have been many changes in the Unity package uploaded today in the Ubuntu 13.10 Saucy Salamander repositories, like support for payment previews that will allow users to buy music from within the Dash and many fixes, including a fix for <a href="http://www.webupd8.org/2013/05/fix-shadow-displayed-on-top-of-full.html">the bug</a> we wrote about a while back that caused the panel shadow to show up on top of full-screen windows.

However,<b> if you customize your Xfce desktop frequently, you can use a tool called Xfce Theme Manager which allows you to change the themes from a single GUI and it also includes thumbnails</b> so you can see how the theme looks like before applying it.</div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a rel="image_group" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-vubCNhcIGVE/UbCUJIFtEUI/AAAAAAAAPbg/eN57YCnG49M/s1600/xfce-theme-manager.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="218" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-vubCNhcIGVE/UbCUJIFtEUI/AAAAAAAAPbg/eN57YCnG49M/s320/xfce-theme-manager.png" width="320" /></a></div><br /><a name='more'></a><b>Xfce Theme Manager allows settings the following:</b><br /><ul><li>complete Xfce theme (window border, controls)</li><li>window borders only</li><li>controls only</li><li>icon theme</li><li>cursor theme</li><li>change the wallpaper</li></ul><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a rel="image_group" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-eqEKYHnv8QM/UbCUP5uCJMI/AAAAAAAAPbo/syCl-NjMIZ0/s1600/xfce-theme-manager-advanced.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="222" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-eqEKYHnv8QM/UbCUP5uCJMI/AAAAAAAAPbo/syCl-NjMIZ0/s320/xfce-theme-manager-advanced.png" width="320" /></a></div><br /><div style="text-align: justify;">Also, under "Advanced" (screenshot above), you can adjust various settings like backdrop brightness and saturation, window button layout, window title position, change the fonts and the cursor size.</div><br />Other features included in Xfce Theme Manager:<br /><ul><li>customizable theme preview size: you can choose between huge, large, medium and small previews;</li><li>save the current theme (in case you use the window border from one theme and the controls from another theme for instance) which includes the wallpaper, font and so on;</li><li>install themes using drag'n'drop (the themes must be tar.gz archives);</li><li>reset the theme.</li></ul><br /><div style="text-align: justify;">I did find one annoyance with Xfce Theme Manager though: when installing new themes, you must click the "Rebuild DB" (rebuild the themes database) under "Advanced" or else the newly installed themes won't show up or at least not immediately.</div><br />Here are a few more Xfce Theme Manager screenshots:<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a rel="image_group" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-GJrWaO_0Eh4/UbCUUmGN9JI/AAAAAAAAPb4/xZ6qLIQOHSM/s1600/xfce-theme-manager_2.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="218" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-GJrWaO_0Eh4/UbCUUmGN9JI/AAAAAAAAPb4/xZ6qLIQOHSM/s320/xfce-theme-manager_2.png" width="320" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a rel="image_group" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-bBM_dORLgoY/UbCUUn7ucRI/AAAAAAAAPbw/QCQdfihSffA/s1600/xfce-theme-manager_3.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="218" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-bBM_dORLgoY/UbCUUn7ucRI/AAAAAAAAPbw/QCQdfihSffA/s320/xfce-theme-manager_3.png" width="320" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a rel="image_group" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-XQsM43eJvMQ/UbCUUh9IYmI/AAAAAAAAPb0/WwxxqJ6WMe4/s1600/xfce-theme-manager_4.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="218" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-XQsM43eJvMQ/UbCUUh9IYmI/AAAAAAAAPb0/WwxxqJ6WMe4/s320/xfce-theme-manager_4.png" width="320" /></a></div><br /><br /><br /><h2>Install Xfce Theme Manager in Xubuntu</h2><br />Xubuntu users can install Xfce Theme Manager from a PPA. <b>The packages in the PPA below require Xfce 4.10, which is available by default in Xubuntu 12.10 and 13.04, but it's not available in Xubuntu 12.04 so for it, you'll also need to add the <a href="http://www.webupd8.org/2012/05/install-xfce-410-in-xubuntu-1204.html">Xfce 4.10 Xubuntu 12.04 PPA</a>!</b> Alternatively, you can also build it from source (download link at the bottom of the post).<br /><br /><div style="text-align: justify;">That said, let's <b>add the PPA and install Xfce Theme Manager in Xubuntu:</b></div><pre class="linux-code"><code>sudo add-apt-repository ppa:rebuntu16/other-stuff <br />sudo apt-get update<br />sudo apt-get install xfce-theme-manager</code></pre><br /><div style="text-align: justify;">Once installed, the application should show up in the Xfce Settings Manager.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">If you're not using Xubuntu, you can <b>download Xfce Theme Manager from <a href="http://xfce-look.org/content/show.php?content=149647">xfce-look.org</a></b>.</div>
