Square’s classic RPG Secret of Mana is now available on Android, letting you relive the happy pixellated childhood moments without busting out that dusty SNES. It’s not cheap though; be prepared to shell out $9 for the title. Like many of Square Enix’s other mobile titles, The Secret of Mana features touch-screen optimized controls and…
Samsung has officially announced two of the earlier rumored Galaxy A smartphones, the A3 and A5, both of which boast a metal frame along the sides. However, these premium looking devices aren’t made for folks looking for a high-end device; the Galaxy A3 is an entry-level, whereas the A5 is going for the mid range…
The newly announced Motorola Droid Turbo will be hitting other parts of the world in the near future. Outside of the U.S., however, it will get a different name since “all things Droid” are reserved for Verizon Wireless and its stubborn marketing department. The handset maker that is now officially part of Lenovo has started…
Xiaomi may be working on another tablet, if we could take a listing at GFXBench database for anything. Said benchmark site has recently been used to test a still unannounced Xiaomi-made device that apparently comes with Qualcomm’s 64-bit Snapdragon 410 processor clocked at 1.2GHz, Adreno 306 graphics, and a 9.2-inch 1280×720 pixels screen.

BlackBerry Passport will most likely be my next phone. Sure, I hate the lack of key apps and the way Android apps work on Passport’s square display, but that physical keyboard is a deal-maker for me.

You would think that current Quad HD screens, like the one LG G3 has, are the best the world can come up with? Think again. Sharp has reportedly started working on a 4K panel of unspecified resolution. As far as we (don’t) know, that could be either 3,840×2,160 or 4,096×2,160 pixels, both of which can…
Even though the “regular” Xiaomi Mi Band isn’t widely available, the company is already working on its successor. Dubbed Mi Band 2, this device — according to GizChina — will sell for 199 Yuan (about $32), which is $20 more than the original Mi Band. So yes, we would expect that the extra cash was…
Want the BlackBerry Passport? You’re not alone, but right now – you can hardly get one. The Canadian company has cleared out its initially inventory of just 200,000 units. Yes, they took a conservative approach which seemed wise, but that made many users unhappy, myself included. Some people are content about the current situation, BlackBerry…
Syncing contacts and calendar entries is no longer a problem thanks to Google’s services. However, doing the same with apps is tricky. While there are some services offering something like that, none is as fancy as the recently announced Baton, the product of a startup called Nextbit. Said app/service is coming soon to CyanogenMod as…
Gionee Elife S5.1 is still the world’s thinnest smartphone, but it may not keep that title for long. We’ve heard that Oppo is working on a 4mm-thin handset that could steel Gionee’s laurels (it has been just announced), and now a new rumor suggests Vivo is looking to join the race with — drums please…
