The Samsung Galaxy Note – perhaps the most interesting device Samsung has coming out – has made a visit to the FCC with none other than AT&T’s HSPA+ 4G radios inside. This doesn’t absolutely mean AT&T will be getting the device (we can think of more than just a few carriers in Canada who may [...]

If there was one that the OG Galaxy Tab 7 had going for it, it was portability. Still, while the device was revolutionary for Android at the time, it was still little more than a glorified phone. Not willing to let a potentially good thing die, Sammy took it back to the lab, infused it [...]

While we’re not exactly sure what this video is trying to promote (it’s apparently a chinese application) the video they’re using grabbed our attention.
