Facebook has updated their Android app, slowly rounding out their mobile portal with features we have enjoyed on desktop browsers for some time now. The biggest addition in version 1.5.3 is the ability to tag your friends in status updates. Just as on the desktop equivalent, typing ‘@’ and a name will bring up a [...]

A couple months back it was mentioned in an interview with AT&T’s Chief Marketing Officer David Christopher that the carrier was slated to receive their own version of the Motorola XOOM later this year. A recent FCC filing could be all the confirmation we need that the plans are indeed in motion and a release may [...]

When I first compiled my review of the Samsung Galaxy S last summer, one of my minor gripes with the device was it’s overwhelming resemblance to the iPhone. The silhouette of the device, it’s singular “home” button foregoing Android’s typical four, and a user interface looking a bit too Apple-inspired made the device feel like [...]

With units already arriving in stores, a new internal memo going around T-Mobile is confirming what many suspected: the T-Mobile G-Slate will launch on April 20th. T-Mobile has an event planned for that day to celebrate the release of the G-Slate and G2x, two LG devices making an exclusive American debut with the carrier. Also [...]

If you are looking to get your hand’s on the newly released Eee Pad Transformer from ASUS, you will be waiting a bit longer. Initial shipments of the tablet have sold out in the UK, according to the manufacturer’s Facebook page. The Honeycomb tablet comes at a fairly reasonable price (£380 without laptop dock/£430 with), [...]

Google can keep Grooveshark out of the Android Market, but they sure can’t keep Grooveshark off of Android altogether. The app has returned in the form of a third-party download direct from the Grooveshark site. It still isn’t all that useful to those not paying the premium subscription fee — you only score a two-week [...]

After launching the update last week, Samsung — on a bit of a source code frenzy — has released Android 2.3  for the Galaxy S to their Open Source Developers Center. With the release, we expect the speedy creation of all sorts of custom Gingerbread ROMs for installation on Galaxy S devices yet to receive [...]

The name may have changed a time or two since, but the Samsung DROID Charge seen in the above video is looking mighty familiar to the device we first saw at CES earlier in the year. It wasn’t doing a whole lot to excite us then, and in this new footage it isn’t getting us [...]

Just because you won’t be anywhere near Westminster Abbey doesn’t mean you can’t experience the upcoming royal wedding first hand. An official Westminster Abbey application is Android Market-bound giving users a first hand look at the historical royal church and location of Prince William and Kate Middleton’s wedding. The application, called Abbey 3D, presents a [...]

New evidence has surfaced saying US Cellular would be carrying the Motorola XOOM. Sweet, but that’s about all we know for the time being except for its expected launch window – Q2’11. No word on whether or not this will have 3G radios for US Cellular’s CDMA network, either, so all we know is that [...]

A new leak today suggests Verizon will have a huge launch day on the 28th of this month. In addition to the Xperia Play and DROID Incredible, the Samsung DROID Charge is the latest to be rumored to be launched on the aforementioned date. That seems a bit crowded to me. It lends credence to [...]

Verizon’s just tweeted about the ongoing expansion of their 4G LTE network – a mess of new cities will be getting the mobile broadband speeds they provide to select devices this Thursday. No exact number or list of cities was mentioned, but if it’s anything like their initial launch then a “mess” of cities will [...]

We’ve just received a nice little package from the folks at Dead Zebra who last month announced and launched series 02 of their iconic and insanely popular Android collectible figures. It was only right to do an unboxing, so I of course did just that. We take a look at one of four random figures [...]

OGT is said to be working on a tablet that’ll shake up the industry and make you wonder why some of the things on it weren’t already featured on other products. They still have yet to officially unveil the thing (we’ve known of their plans since February), but our friends at Android Central have uncovered [...]

Meizu is one of those companies who aren’t well know but makes some great hardware. (And software, for that matter.) I was blown away by their Android-running M9 when it was first unveiled and I still hate the fact that I can’t get one for myself. The folks at Meizu are looking to unveil a [...]

Easter’s this coming Sunday and Rovio promised they’d release the update to Seasons before the holiday makes its way to the forefront of our calendar. (Perhaps a “Good Friday” release is in order?) It only makes sense that this trailer has appeared online for all to get excited about bunny ears and colored rabbits. Check [...]

Orange UK has just announced pricing and availability details for the Motorola ATRIX. The device itself is going to cost you 35 pounds per month (the upfront cost is free, of course), but don’t forget that there are some pretty nice accessories you can get to go along with it. They’re touting the “Work and [...]

It’s a good day for Samsung fans. The Galaxy S Gingerbread update is rolling out across Europe, a new 2GHz dual-core phone is rumored to be here next year, and now O2 UK is confirmed to be getting the Galaxy S2 in May. And to top all of that off, Samsung has finally published their [...]

After hearing that countries like Holland and Germany got upgrades to Android 2.3 for the Samsung Galaxy S, we figured the UK and other European entities wouldn’t be far off. And we didn’t expect a carrier to get it out so soon for branded devices – Vodafone has just issued a statement regarding its arrival. [...]

This is the type of rumor I like to see on a crisp Monday morning. According to a supposed high-ranking executive at Samsung, the company will look to release the world’s most powerful smartphone sometime in 2012. What exactly will make it the most powerful, you ask? How about a dual-core 2GHz processor – one [...]
