Lenovo has shared its CES announcements with us a few days early this year by unveiling four new relatively impressive Android-powered high-end smartphones — “the Lenovo Vibe Z, the Lenovo S930, the Lenovo S650 and the Lenovo A859.”

Google has today announced that it will officially revoke access to the Bump and Flock apps on its Play Store as well as the Apple App Store on January 31, 2014. Consequently, this means that on the first day of February, neither app will be available to download from either of the popular app directories and those who have already installed the applications will find that they will no longer work.

Following rumors claiming that Verizon would soon be offering Motorola’s scaled-down variant to its flagship smartphone, the Moto G, for just $99.99 on a prepaid card tariff, Best Buy has issued a statement confirming that it will now be selling the Big Red branded handset in all of its nationwide retail stores.

Samsung unveiled its largest Galaxy variant, the Galaxy Mega 6.3, back in April, 2013, and two months later the device was available to purchase in the United Kingdom from several independent retailers for £449. However, if you haven’t had the opportunity or the wherewithal to pick one up before now, it might be of interest for you to know that Amazon U.K. is now offering the phablet for £299.99.

Unfortunately, HTC was unable to meet its initial goal of updating the Evo 4G LTE by the end of 2013, leaving many of us disappointed. But, today, Jason Mackenzie, President of HTC America, officially revealed on Twitter that the update will be pushed to Sprint for review in “mid-January” and is expected to reach our devices by way of an over-the-air (OTA) update sometime in February.
