Surprise. Apple is back again. And so are the ridiculous lawsuits against Samsung. In this edition, 17 Sammy devices are the target, including the Galaxy Note 10.1 and Cupertiono’s favorite phone to hate on, the Galaxy Nexus (again). Apple also wants to add the Android 4.1 Jelly Bean operating system to an existing lawsuit against Samsung in California. According to Bloomberg, both sides wer... »
ASUS finally spilled the beans about its Nexus 7 sales stats yesterday and honestly, I’m not surprised a bit by the number they revealed. According to Asustek executives, who were on-hand for the company’s third-quarter earnings conference on Tuesday, the N7 is seeing very close to 1 million units sold per month now — a number that is growing at a very nice pace too, I must add. “At th... »
Remember that time when the iPhone prototype was lost and found in a restaurant in Redwood City, California a couple of years back? Well, get ready for a dose of déjà vu, because yet another unreleased device from a popular manufacturer has turned up in yet another public establishment, only this time, Apple’s nowhere to be found.

For quite a few years now, Samsung has been the primary supplier of LCD displays to Apple. You heard that right, the two companies that hate each other in the courtrooms actually have quite a huge agreement on displays for all those iJunk devices.

In this classic match up, we’ve got S... »
We had a strong feeling that this was coming, but we weren’t exactly sure until earlier this evening. CNET posted the news that Google is preparing to release its first high-end tablet, in the form of what we believe will be called the Nexus 10 — seems like a fitting name for a 10-inch successor to the Nexus 7, doesn’t it? Now, here’s the surprise. Even though ASUS did a mi... »
In a dash of good news, Samsung got a small piece of justice last night, as the United States sales injunction against the Galaxy Tab 10.1 was lifted. Of course, we’re talking about an obsolete tablet here, but a win is still a win in our books, especially when that win is against Apple. The ban stemmed from a month-long legal battle between the world’s top two smartphone makers, which... »
Today marked a huge milestone in the ongoing history of Google. Google surpassed Microsoft in early morning trading to become the second largest technology company in the world, Apple has been in first place since 2010. While an important moment in Google’s history, it is also a changing of the guard of sorts, in terms of software development. The primary software and operating system maker of the... »
It seems as though we are growing in the times where NFC (near-field communication) is starting to become more popular. We can use it to transform our phones into our wallets, communicate with other phones, and even send full files to each other; tablets are even being equipped with this technology. It’s becoming the norm to include the technology as a standard in today’s smartphones. Also, now i... »
