It looks like LG’s forthcoming Optimus G2 won’t be competing with the likes of Oppo Find and HTC Droid DNA/Butterfly, and will rather go for the folks looking to buy a phablet device such as the Samsung Galaxy Note II. According to Korean publication Asiae, LG’s next flagship will rock a 5.5-inch 1080p screen as…
Aside from using it to operate its own businesses like Boost Mobile and Virgin Mobile, Sprint also leases its network to third parties like Ting, FreedomPop, Republic Wireless, Voyager Mobile and Elevate. That, however, isn’t enough with the carrier now approaching Dish Network to help them establish their own wireless company using Now Network’s airwaves.…
Samsung is apparently getting ready to launch another member of its Galaxy series. The rumored Galaxy Grand DUOS (we guess a single-SIM version will also be released) may be unveiled in January 2013, sporting some rather unimpressive specs. From what we’ve heard, it will have a huge 5-inch screen that will unfortunately show WVGA (800×480…
Although the HTC Droid DNA has been just recently announced, the Taiwanese company is already looking to launch another device. And I’m not talking about the international version of the DNA called HTC DLX, but a whole new phone which, to be fair, will be pretty similar to the existing one. However, instead of coming…
T-Mobile will soon launch a new prepaid brand, GoSmart Mobile, which we’re hearing will target the same market Sprint aims for with its Boost Mobile franchise.

A new, still unannounced Nokia Lumia smartphone has been caught in Mexico. Apparently, the Lumia 505 has been leaked by Guerrero Movil, which is one of Telcel’s authorized resellers. We don’t have all the details, but we do know this little fella will come with an 8-megapixel rear-facing camera, while running Windows Phone 7.8, just…
Samsung is apparently working on a cheaper version of the Galaxy Note II that will be sold in Europe. The idea is to provide customers with a big screen experience without having to pay a premium. However, this model won’t have all of the features the Galaxy Note II has — including the SPen function…
RIM will be unveiling first BlackBerry 10 devices in less than 2 months and after many shots of leaked devices, we have the list of accessories the Canadian company will offer to its customers. You can see the leaked list from the image above, but let us recap the key “components” – the forthcoming BlackBerry…
The existing Samsung Galaxy Pocket S5300 is the cheapest Android smartphone in the company’s portfolio and it’s also available in a dual SIM variant. However, both devices (single and dual SIM versions) run Android 2.3 Gingerbread which may soon not be a “good enough” option even for the emerging markets of the world. To “solve”…
