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. According to them, the upcoming Moto smartphone will rock a 5.2-inch full HD screen, Qualcomm Snapdragon 800 quad-core chip clocked at 2.3GHz, 2GB of…
LG’s Brazilian arm has announced that few of the company’s older phones will get KitKat updates in the near future. Among those “affected” are the LG Optimus G, Optimus G Pro, L7 II and dual-SIM G Pro Lite. Some others won’t be so lucky though, including the LG Optimus 4X HD and Optimus F5. The…
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…
We don’t get to see clones of the Chinese phones that often. Usually, we have fake iPhones and knock-offs of popular Samsung and HTC devices, not fake China-made phones. That’s not the case with the iNew V8, which is a new “variant” of the Oppo N1 — that’s right, in a weird twist of events…

Surprised? Amazon’s 3D-ish smartphone, the Amazon Fire Phone isn’t doing so hot in the sales department. While we don’t have cold hard numbers to go on here, we can see that the Fire Phone is number 68 on Amazon’s Best Sellers in Electronics list, and that’s just the 32GB version. The 64GB doesn’t even make it…
Chinese OEM Hisense is entering the Windows Phone market with the MIRA6 smartphone.
