Amazon Wireless continues to bring us some of the best mobile deals available. They’ve just dropped the price of the Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III to $139.99 for new users and $149.99 for upgrades. Those are great prices for what amounts to the best available smartphone on the best available carrier.

As HTC gears up for its September 19 event, a few leaks of what is being called the HTC One X+ have been making the rounds. The device is purportedly running Jelly Bean (Android 4.1 w/Sense) and packing a Tegra 3+ AP37 1.6GHz quad-core / 1.7GHz single-core processor with 1GB of RAM and 32GB of ROM. It’s also keeping the same 4.7-inch 1280 x 720 screen that the One X has, while being powered by an underwhelming 1800mAh battery.

After a brief Xperia device exclusive, Call of Duty Black Ops Zombies is now available for most Android devices. The game itself is another Zombie shoot ’em up, which frankly, is getting a little old. Glu mobile has also decided to drive users bonkers by charging $6.99 for the game as well as including in-app purchases. This model is a far cry from what MadFingers Games is doing with their free Zombie hit Dead Trigger. By comparison, Dead Trigger (which dropped its price to free) has amassed almost 5 million downloads in two months while COD: Zombies with their $6.99 price tag has only managed a couple thousand downloads in the month that it has been available.

Yesterday, Amazon held an event to announce its new line of Kindles. They had some impressive features, decent specs, but best of all — an incredible price. If you don’t feel like reading all about it and would rather watch the video of yesterday’s event, you’re in luck. Amazon has uploaded the full video to YouTube as well as their press site. Don’t feel like switching pages? Then just watch is here after the break. Cheers!

We simply love wallpapers. They’re one of the first changes we make to our Android devices and often represent our moods, interests, or wicked alter egos. They’re as unique as the individuals who use them and while some people pick one and stick with it, others change them more often than a teenager’s Facebook status. Each day we’re going to feature a free wallpaper for you to download and use on your Android device. Depending on your device, you may want to use your favorite photo editing software to resize the image for a better fit. Once that’s done, apply and enjoy. Your homescreen can thank us later. Cheers!
