Lately, there’s been a lot of chatter around the net regarding a Samsung Galaxy S3 delay. According to Tweakers.net, apparently Samsung was forced to destroy nearly 600,000 battery covers, after a defect was found in the Pebble Blue version of the covers. It’s this hiccup that has pushed back the launch date for the international [...]
Some new rumors are floating around this morning regarding the extremely popular Microsoft Office Suite. Apparently multiple versions have been spotted running on the iPad and Microsoft is looking to launch Office for Android tablets and that other tablet later this year, possibly in November. Google Docs might have some competition pretty soon. According to [...]
GREE, who acquired OpenFeint last year and are currently one of the three major social gaming platforms in Asia, have gone worldwide with the launching of an open beta today. This launch has been in the works now for some time, since last year, when they announced plans for expanding outside of the Asian market. [...]
Angry Birds, it’s somewhat impossible to escape, don’t you think? Especially if you’ve got family that love casual games. It’s certainly hard not to love Angry Birds, it’s so simple and yet so addictive. There’s no doubting Rovio’s runaway success with the game either. Having launched originally on the iPhone and then Android it’s only [...]
The HTC EVO 4G LTE will ship to those that pre-ordered on May 24, according to Sprint. After being held up at customs by the ITC for patent reasons that involve Apple (of course), the device must have passed their tests and has been cleared for take off. Sprint is still not willing to give [...]
Blizzard’s latest addition to the Diablo franchise was just released last week and the launch of Diablo III has been less than stellar due to a variety of emergency server maintenance and patching having been going on since the launch. This, in turn, has pissed off a rather large amount of players. Read more… … [...]
If you are anything like us, you are looking forward to the release of the ASUS Transformer Pad Infinity (TF700T), the 10.1-inch Android tablet boasting an astounding 1920×1200 (1080p) resolution. It has been said that the device would see a European launch on July 10th and the recent FCC approval would put us right on track [...]
During CES a few months ago Acer debuted a Tegra 3 tablet known as the Iconia Tab A700 and since then the device kind of disappeared off the radar. Well I am happy to report that this 10.1-inch 1080p display carrying device is still moving forward as it’s made its way to the FCC. This [...]
If you didn’t know, Samsung introduced some alternate colors for the Samsung Galaxy Note. Unfortunately, those alternate colors only launched in Korea. Well, it looks like parts of Europe are about to get in on the fun as Carphone Warehouse have pegged June 2012 as the launch date for the berry pink version in the [...]
Earlier today, we reported that Best Buy was notifying pre-orders that the HTC EVO 4G LTE would arrive on May 23rd, a few days later than the original May 18th launch date. This came after news that both the EVO and One X were being held up at Customs, and lead a few to believe [...]
The HTC Evo 4G LTE is currently stuck in U.S. Customs (thanks, Apple), delaying the May 18th launch on Sprint. Customers who pre-ordered from Best Buy are now receiving emails updating them of their order status, stating a new release date of May 23rd. Interestingly, HTC wasn’t as date specific as Best Buy in their [...]
Back in early April, Chrome beta for desktops received the ability to sync tabs throughout all of your other Chrome experiences. It was essentially the same sync feature that the Android version of the browser had at launch, but this would complete the syncing experience. Today, this same syncing feature was released to the non-beta [...]
AT&T confirmed this past weekend that Baton Rouge would be getting 4G LTE, but didn’t bother to offer a time frame other than “soon.” We’ve gotten a couple of independent reports that the network is live today, though we haven’t been able to find much more than that. It’s strange that AT&T would launch the [...]
The ASUS Padfone is arguably the most innovative device of CES (it even got a price for it). Just how far will it get, though? ASUS has definitely managed to build a great reputation for itself, in the Android community. But if you aren’t already anticipating this release, ASUS is hoping to change that with [...]
If you head on over to Virgin Mobile’s website, you can pre-order the recently announced LG Optimus Elite. The device might not break any benchmark records, but it definitely wont break the bank either. The “eco-friendly” device will only set you back $150, which isn’t too shabby for those looking to upgrade their aging Samsung [...]
Before you run off thinking this is a re-branded HTC One X or HTC Evo 4G LTE, hold your horses, it’s not. The device is more of an Evo 3D with some slight modifications to accommodate Virgin’s network. This will be marked as Virgin Mobile’s first “4G” device to hit the carrier. The company is offering a [...]
We recently watched as Verizon accidentally and temporarily activated the Droid Incredible 4G LTE page on the Droid Does website. If that wasn’t enough to lead you to believe that its release was just around the corner than how about the rumor suggesting its launch on May 10th? Either way, we are about to get [...]

Seeing photos and reading about a device just doesn’t do the trick for many people. They may look great, but seeing it in action makes all the difference. I don’t mean seeing a business created video of a rendered version of the device. It is all about seeing the true device in action. We promised [...]
On top of new hardware, today’s Samsung event saw the launch of an exclusive Flipboard app, which marks the first time the visual reading app has appeared on Android.

The T-Mobile crowd were understandably disappointed when they learned the Ice Cream Sandwich update for the HTC Sensation 4G wouldn’t happen in April. Considering the fact that Sensation models were the first HTC devices to receive the upgrade, it’s a real punch to the gut knowing several other devices are passing it by. T-Mobile isn’t [...]
A few days ago we got a sneak peak at Verizon’s Droid Does landing page for the Droid Incredible 4G. According to sources close to PhoneDog, the device may actually be released in just a couple weeks, on Thursday, May 10th. Unfortunately their sources don’t have any pricing information, but according to what we’ve already [...]

We were chatting with our industry friend @P3Droid yesterday when he started dropping talk of the entire new DROID line of phones from Verizon being unlocked to work on AT&T and T-Mobile GSM networks. At launch, we knew that most (if not all) of these phones had GSM radios buried within, but that Verizon had [...]
A trailer has just been released for the upcoming N.O.V.A. 3 title that is set to be released by Gameloft.

Note that this is for regular Gmail users and not Gapps accounts. The additional space should become available over the next 24 hours, so [...]
Forget the imminent launch of Google Drive, the fact that Google is selling the Galaxy Nexus in the Play Store is something to talk about. The last time they tried to sell a device on their own was with the Nexus One, and as many of you know, that failed to work all that well. [...]
Is today the day? Will Google Drive launch, giving the world 5GB of Google cloud storage, an app to control it, and unicorn dust to make it all magical? Well, it may be magical without the unicorn dust, but there is still a chance it could launch today. We heard last week that Drive would [...]
We’re less than two weeks away from the official launch of the HTC One X on AT&T, but it appears not all AT&T locations are on the same schedule. Engadget has images from a user who was reportedly able to buy one of the phones well in advance of its May 6th launch date. It [...]
Yesterday, the hype-machine for the next galaxy device officially started with the launch of tgeltaayehxnx, a website displaying a twenty-four hour countdown. Today, that countdown hit zero, and visiting thenextgalaxy.com brings up a teaser video that shows very little. The next Galaxy S device will launch on May 3rd at a Samsung Unpacked event in [...]
We’ve seen more than a few details emerge in the past few weeks about the Asus Transformer Pad 300, and they’ve been confirmed today with the company’s official launch of the hybrid tablet.
