Yet again, Sony is gearing towards launching what could be the best “Mini” smartphone out there. Forget about Samsung Galaxy S5 Mini and the upcoming LG G3 Mini – Sony will yet again have the best pocketable smartphone with its forthcoming Xperia Z3 Compact. According to the leaked screenshot, this little fella will rock the…
The LG G3 will be available from Sprint very soon, with pre-orders for the device beginning next Friday, July 11th with G3 landing in stores and shipping out to customers just a week later on July 18th. That puts Sprint pretty much on par with T-Mobile and Verizon who will be offering the G3 on…
Just the other day, Samsung unveiled the Galaxy S5 Mini. The smaller version of the company’s flagship device has all the bells and whistles we learned to love in its big brother, including the IP67-certified water- and dust-resistant body, fingerprint reader and heart rate sensor. In addition, the Mini also rocks a 4.5-inch 720p HD…
Although the HTC One M8 is still a rather awesome device — and one of the best phones money can buy — we can’t help but start thinking about its successor and what it will be all about. Some rumors have already started coming in, suggesting the Taiwanese company will keep using an all-aluminum body…
And yet again we’ve caught the still unannounced Moto X+1; this time the source is Brazil’s Logos Bookstore, which famously leaked the Moto E two days before it was officially announced.

ASUS has started rolling out Android 4.4 KitKat update for the aging Padfone 2, which will go straight from Jelly Bean 4.1 to the latest version of Android. Alas, this comes with a caveat and users will see their data disappearing like it’s nobody’s business. Something gotta give I guess; but we’re certain installing all…
Microsoft is working on the Windows Phone 8.1 update that will introduce support for folders. According to the blog post at the company’s website, which was quickly removed, users will be able to group multiple app icons and create folders that way.

The newly released Android “sub-platforms” — Android Auto, Android Wear and Android TV — may be based on Google’s mobile OS, but they won’t allow OEMs to change stuff around. Forget about TouchWIZ and Sense UI – Samsung and HTC (respectively) won’t be able to do those sort of things with their car, watch and…
Samsung may be working on a Tizen-based Galaxy S5 or at least such device has been caught at the Zauba website which tracks imports to India. They list not one but three Galaxy S5 units running Sammy’s own platform rather than Android. It’s unclear whether this device will actually be released or Samsung just wants…
