Huawei-Ascend-P2-leak

Huawei unveiled a number of new smartphones at the Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas last week, but it appears the Chinese company may have another device to bring us in the coming months. A press photo, including specifications, has been leaked for the Ascend P2. While it’s not the flagship Ascend D2, it still looks to be a very impressive handset.

Facebook

Facebook is set to hold a press event later today, and it appears the whole thing’s going to be a massive kick in the teeth for Google. Not only is the social network expected to unveil its own smartphone, possibly powered by its own platform, but it’s also expected to hit Google where it really hurts — in search. Rumor has it the company will unveil its own search engine, which will rollout to users “very soon.”

Nexus-4-back

LG has received a lot of criticism for its Nexus 4 production rates in recent months. Since the handset went on sale last November, it’s been incredibly difficult to get hold of for the vast majority of would-be customers. Google Play stock doesn’t appear to be getting replenished as often as it should, and when it does, it’s sold out within just a few hours.

From LG’s point of view, however, Nexus 4 production is proceeding exactly how it was planned. The Korean company denies there is a supply issue, leading many to question how many handsets Google actually ordered.
