The earlier rumored LG G3 Prime has been officially announced as LG G3 Cat.6 in South Korea, and will go on sale on July 25th! The improved version of the “regular” G3 uses Qualcomm’s newer (and faster) Snapdragon 805 System on Chip (SoC), rather than Snapdragon 801, which also happens to power flagship devices of…
It was back in February when we first talked about the Gionee Elife S5.5, which at that time was the device with the slimmest body, ever. At 5.5mm, it still holds the said spot but that will change soon; and the next phone to claim the throne will be another Gionee device. The soon-to-be-launched Gionee…
It could be, but the watch definitely won’t have that custom screen, since Google won’t allow its OEM partners to tweak the software. They [OEM partners] will be able to use custom wallpapers but that’s something completely different. We do like the metal look and feel of this watch that reminds us on HTC’s flagship…
Like it already doesn’t have a great relationship with Google, ZTE announced that some of its future smartphones will ship with the Google Now launcher preloaded. Said launcher is typically used on Nexus and Google Play Edition devices, and this would be the first time a major handset maker opted to use Google’s rather than…

During that short period, the company has managed to move 52,800 Z7 units, which is an impressive feat. Then again, we’re also talking about an impressive phone, though it’s…
Well what do we have here… Could this be the upcoming Moto X+1? Or that’s something completely different? Whatever this is, it comes with two holes on the back, making it ready to “accept” two camera modules to deliver an improved photo taking experience a la HTC One. Another scenario could be that the extra…
Aside from the “regular” colored Samsung Z models, the Korean company is also working on the gold-colored version. Brought to our attention by the good folks of TizenExperts, this unit looks rather sexy in gold and could thus help Sammy move more units. That said, we’re still waiting to see any Z variant hitting the…
Corning’s Gorilla Glass products may soon be a thing of the past, at least when it comes to the very high end of the smartphone market. This could happen thanks to Kyocera, which Sapphire Shield glass may turn into a new darling of top handset makers (and owners of said devices). While Corning has made…
If Microsoft, Google and Apple can have their virtual assistants, so can BlackBerry. The Canadian company is doing just that and will include this feature into its upcoming BlackBerry OS 10.3, which will ship preinstalled with the BlackBerry Passport and BlackBerry Classic. Just like Cortana, Google Now and Siri – the BlackBerry Assistant will too…
