HTC Edge/Endeavor/Supreme
Once known as the HTC Edge, the HTC Endeavor is now looking to see another name-change before it’s released. The new moniker is said to be the HTC Supreme, an apt name but it may become a little awkward in six months’ time when HTC releases a new flagship device.
Google Android Home Entertainment?
Google is reportedly working on a Google-branded home entertainment system whereby music content can be streamed wirelessly throughout a user’s house, according to the Wall Street Journal. The idea of an Android-powered home entertainment system is certainly not surprising, as Google now has its own Music streaming cloud infrastructure in the US and selected areas. However, what is surprising is that the actual device itself is said to be Google branded.
ICS Update for HTC Begins in March
Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich (ICS) update for HTC devices finally has a starting date, albeit a slightly ambiguous one. At some point during this coming March Ice Cream Sandwich will make its way to both the HTC Sensation and Sensation XE, with the Sensation XL clipping at their heals.
Sony Tablet P Soon With 3G Support
Sony’s dual-screen flip-out tablet, the Sony Tablet P, is being released in a 3G version alongside its Tablet S cousin. Much like the Tablet S, the Tablet P never really saw a huge boom of popularity on its release. A while ago now we went in to why we’re excited by dual-screen devices, so it’s a shame to see the Tablet P having done as unsubstantially as it has. However, now that it’s soon to be available in a 3G version this ultra-portable tablet may see a bump in sales.
Sony Releases 3G Tablet S
The Sony Tablet S made a relatively small impact upon its release some months ago. Its intriguing form-factor and PlayStation certification sounded like they could be enough to give it a considerable consumer base, however, once all was said and done the Tablet S sold well, but not impressively.
Supposed Pic of iPad 3 Case Leaked
The web is buzzing today over a purported leaked photo of the upcoming iPad 3’s casing. As always with Apple rumors, we suggest you don’t put too much stock in this as it’s currently totally unsubstantiated. However, the images do convey some surprising information, should they turn out to be the real-deal.
LG Miracle May Make a Show at MWC
As the MWC rumor-mill kicks in to gear we’re hearing more and more about some potentially juicy new pieces of hardware. One such bit of news is regarding the alleged LG Miracle, a Windows Phone device that is apparently on its way from LG in the near future.
Nokia Lumia 800 Hits US Feb 14
Well we’ve heard about the Nokia Lumia 900 and Lumia 710 US releases (Lumia 900 still to come) and now we’ve finally got some solid goss on the Nokia Lumia 800. Come February 14 the world’s first Nokia Windows Phone will be available for $899 in the US with a handful of bundled accessories.
Android Chrome Beta Released
Google has released the Chrome web browser beta for Android users. Unfortunately only those with Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich can download and use the app, which is still a pretty small percentage of active devices right now. The apparent focus for now is on speed and efficiency, rather than aesthetics or stability. The general idea is obviously to show off the basic functionality of Android Chrome as opposed to other browsers. So far just what’s been added is a little unspecific, but we do know that tabs have been added which should make viewing multiple pages a much faster and easier process.
Nokia Set to Wow at MWC
Nokia will apparently be unveiling a new high-end smartphone at the upcoming Mobile World Conference in Barcelona. In the last few months we’ve already seen the Nokia Lumia 710, Lumia 800 and Lumia 900 Windows Phone handsets from the Finnish giant, could another Lumia device be next?
