Samsung Galaxy Nexus coming to T-Mobile?

Samsung Galaxy Nexus coming to T-Mobile?

Posted on Jan 26, 2012 by MG1

The Samsung Galaxy Nexus is not only the first handset running on Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich, but many also consider it to be simply the best Android device made so far and that’s why the possibility of it arriving on T-Mobile sounds particularly exciting. The Galaxy Nexus is already available on Verizon Wireless and Sprint, but it has skipped AT&T and T-Mobile.
Now, evidence has popped up that a mysterious Samsung-T999, a handset with a screen resolution of 720 x 1280 pixels, matching the one on the Galaxy Nexus, is indeed arriving on T-Mobile. Not only that, but the T999 model name matches the naming scheme of T-Mobile: T for the name of the carrier and the typical 9 at the end.

Early build of Ice Cream Sandwich for the GSM Motorola RAZR leaks

Posted on Jan 26, 2012 by MG1

There may be many different Android devices in the world today but there are still only a handful of decent custom user interfaces available. While we prefer stock Android over anything else, HTC’s Sense UI has been a favorite for many people for a while now. However, one thing we’ve never heard before is someone saying that they prefer Motorola’s custom UI Motoblur over anything else. Well, some of the first shots of the Motorola RAZR playing nice with Ice Cream Sandwich and Motoblur have arrived and some of you may like the new look.
From what we can see, Motorola has been pretty busy bringing Motoblur to Android 4.0 and some of the enhancements are pretty nice. First you, you’ll now have ...

Samsung Galaxy S III's MWC debut reportedly canceled

Samsung Galaxy S III's MWC debut reportedly canceled

Posted on Jan 26, 2012 by MG1

The highly anticipated follow up to Samsung’s Galaxy S II will not be unveiled at next month’s Mobile World Congress, according to The Verge. The Galaxy S III was rumored to be debuting in Barcelona next month, however it has reportedly now been delayed. The reason for delay was not disclosed, although it is still slated to be released “before summer” according to the report. The Galaxy S II was announced at last year’s Mobile Wold Congress, but Samsung is said to have been uncomfortable with the long delay between the global launch and availability in the U.S., where it is the most popular Android vendor. The company will still feature “interesting stuff” in place of the Galaxy S III, perha...

Xbox 720 may be six times more powerful than the Xbox 360

Xbox 720 may be six times more powerful than the Xbox 360

Posted on Jan 26, 2012 by MG1

The Xbox 720, which BGR exclusively reported will likely be unveiled during E3 this summer, could be six times more powerful than the current generation Xbox 360. IGN broke the news earlier this week and said that the production of the Xbox 720′s graphics processing unit (GPU) is scheduled to begin by the end of this year. IGN said the GPU will be based on ATI’s Radeon HD 6670 GPU and should offer support for 3D technology, 1080p HD output, multiple displays and DirectX 11. Microsoft has also filed a patent that suggests the console will also offer DVR support, which has raised questions of whether or not the company will release two versions of the console, one with DVR support and one with...

Motorola files lawsuit against Apple citing patent infringements

Motorola files lawsuit against Apple citing patent infringements

Posted on Jan 26, 2012 by MG1

Filed in: AppleMotorola

Motorola Mobility is suing Apple for infringing on six of its patents. The patents in question are related to wireless antennas, software, messaging, and data management — quite a bit of the entire experience of a smartphone is on the line here. Apple allegedly uses these patents in the iPhone 4S and iCloud.
The lawsuit was filed in Florida today and it’s just the latest battle in the larger smartphone patent wars.
“Apple’s infringing activities have caused and will continue to cause Motorola Mobility irreparable harm, for which it has no adequate remedy at law, unless Apple’s infringing activities are enjoined by this Court,” Motorola said as part of the case. The company wants compensation...

HP: Open webOS 1.0 arriving in September, Enyo 2.0 framework free to developers today

HP: Open webOS 1.0 arriving in September, Enyo 2.0 framework free to developers today

Posted on Jan 26, 2012 by MG1

When HP announced last month that it would open-source webOS, the outfit seemed mighty pleased (and relieved) to have finally made a definitive decision regarding the fate of its $1.2 billion software experiment. In fact, though, the company's initial announcement was light on detail, other than the fact that webOS will live on with the help of developers both inside and outside HP. Now, the company's ready to talk specifics: HP says it expects the software will be fully open-sourced by September, at which point its official name will be Open webOS 1.0. The first piece of the puzzle is arriving today in the form of the second-gen Enyo framework, a free tool that lets developers write webOS a...

Nokia Lumia 900 to hit AT&T March 18th for $99?

Nokia Lumia 900 to hit AT&T March 18th for $99?

Posted on Jan 26, 2012 by MG1

A source speaking to BGR confirmed the March 18th launch date we reported for Nokia’s Lumia 900. The 4.3” WP7 handset will make its debut on AT&T, although the date may not be set in stone; apparently the Lumia 900 is still working to get final technical approval.
More exciting is the reported price: Consumers purchasing the phone with a two year contract will get it for a less than a Benjamin. Before sales tax anyhow. Still, a $99 price point is very aggressive, so clearly Microsoft and Nokia are coming to play this spring. This price positioning reflects the important that Microsoft and Nokia place on the U.S. market for the future of Windows Phone.

Microsoft drops MIX, plans one major 2012 dev event

Microsoft drops MIX, plans one major 2012 dev event

Posted on Jan 26, 2012 by MG3

Filed in: Microsoft

Microsoft platform evangelism GM Tim O'Brien in a blog post said his company was dropping another major event, MIX. At least the 2012 developer show would be cancelled in favor of one, monolithic developer event "sometime in the coming year." The notion of separating the web and native apps was no longer needed, O'Brien said, but Microsoft was also getting backlash from an excess of events.

Some HP Envy 15 screens display orange where red should be

Some HP Envy 15 screens display orange where red should be

Posted on Jan 26, 2012 by MG3

If you're completely satisfied with your HP Envy 15, you might want to stop reading now. There seems to be a problem with some of the 1080p Radiance Display screens, and we're afraid it's one of those things you may not be able to unsee once you know the truth. Okay, here's the news: certain screens don't seem to be able to properly reproduce red and violet colors. There's a lengthy forum thread over at Notebook Review discussing the issue, and we've also confirmed it on our review unit (see pictures below). Some users also claim they received notebooks with excessive keyboard flex and dented USB ports, but it's the red / orange issue that has the most Envy 15 owners up in arms.

Next Xbox console to be six times more powerful, headed for fall 2013 release?

Posted on Jan 26, 2012 by MG3

Xbox 720, Xbox Loop -- whatever Microsoft ends up calling it, that hot rod of a console looks to be on deck for a late fall 2013 release. According to IGN's sources, this successor to the Redmond gaming throne is purported to pack a GPU based on AMD's 6000 series of chips and will boast silicon circuitry that catapults its performance past Nintendo's upcoming Wii U by 20 percent. If you're looking for a more apples to green X's comparison, this next-gen console's graphical capabilities are also reportedly six times greater than its 360 progenitor. While MS is likely holding back its monstrous new platform for a big E3 reveal, it appears the company's still whittling down its spec list, with ...
