HTC today unveiled a new handset under its ‘One’ brand for the Chinese market — the One ME. The handset is a cheaper variant of the company’s flagship One M9+ handset sold in the region.

Galaxy S6 and S6 edge adopters are itching to get their hands on Samsung’s latest Android 5.1.1 software ahead of Android M’s big debut this fall. To make you even more impatient, here’s a preview video that demonstrates all of the new features the update brings.

LG doesn’t sell the G4 as a water-resistant smartphone, and the device doesn’t have any IP certification for water resistance, but it’s surprisingly good at withstanding liquids.

After a full two hours under water in a new torture test, the device lives on without any issues at all.

Microsoft’s devouring of our favorite mobile apps continues today with the acquisition of 6Wunderkinder, makers of popular task management app Wunderlist.

The buyout, which comes just four months after Microsoft acquired Sunrise, will help the software continue its mission to reinvent productivity in a mobile-first world, it says.

The Galaxy S6 certainly doesn’t seem to be living up to Samsung’s expectations.

For a smartphone that was meant to turn around Samsung’s flagging mobile division, the Galaxy S6 hasn’t exactly been a rousing success.

In fact, according to one new report coming out of Taiwan, sales have been sufficiently disappointing that Samsung has decided to cut orders for its flagship device by 16 percent.

The report doesn’t make clear whether this refers to just the S6 or the S6 Edge also — or possibly a combination of both. Whatever the breakdown, it’s another piece of less-than-stellar news for Samsung at a time when it could really use some positivity.
