As usual, Verizon Wireless decided to take its sweet time announcing the availability of the HTC One, but it finally did via a tweet today! We can expect the device to hit some time later this summer! It’s coming – the HTC One will be available on the #Verizon Wireless 4G LTE network later this…
Twitter today has released Vine for Android, bringing the video recording and sharing service to Google’s mobile OS for the first time. The version for Android is not as feature complete as the iOS version and is missing push notification, access to the front-facing camera and more. Vine launched earlier this year on iOS after…
The best thing about Nexus and new “Google Edition / Nexus Experience” devices is that their owners will be among the first ones to get the latest version of Android. When both Google Edition smartphones, Samsung Galaxy S4 and HTC One, start selling, they’ll be rocking Android 4.2.2 Jelly Bean out of the box with…
Samsung is either experiencing some (serious) problems in its own chip supplies or is having some other plans we’re not aware off. The Korean company is making its own Exynos chips for mobile devices (or is sourcing them from Qualcomm), so we’re surprised to learn that it may use some Intel-made chips in its products.…
ZTE’s flagship smartphone Grand S may still not be available across the globe, but that doesn’t mean the Chinese company is standing still. In fact, it is working to fix one of the phone’s biggest flaws – battery life. You see, that 6.9mm thin body comes with a caveat, housing a rather small 1,780mAh battery.…

We can’t be 100% sure about this but it is the same device (marked as SM-C101) which got Bluetooth certification three weeks ago (and we thought that’s Galaxy S4 Zoom). The FCC listing is unsurprisingly scarce on details, though it does spill details…
The hot-new Samsung Galaxy S4 is now available in black and white for pre-order at Cricket Wireless. The carrier’s “version” costs more upfront but requires no long-term commitments whatsoever. With instant discount for online orders of $70 and with a $55 mail-in rebate, Sammy’s flagship smartphone comes down to $474.99, and you get a free…
It looks like Asus may introduce a successor to its affordable 7-inch tablet Memo Pad at this year’s Computex, taking place in Taipei, Taiwan from June 4 – June 8. We still don’t have an image of the device to show you, but we’re hearing the upcoming Asus Memo Pad HD will rock a 720p…
New York Governor Andrew Cuomo announced on Friday that those caught driving and texting would receive an increased penalty of five points on their driving record (up from 3 points), making that “activity” more costly than driving 20 miles over the posted speed limit. Additionally, Cuomo is proposing a law that would bring harsher penalties…
