The Xperia Z2 might not be available in all the regions across the world but that has not stopped Sony from rolling out a software update for the handset. The update fixes quite a few bugs and issues present in the stock firmware of the handset whilst also bringing some much needed enhancements.

With the release of the HTC One (M7) and other One branded handsets, HTC focused on quickly getting out software updates to them. The company was among the first in the United States to update their flagship handset to KitKat on all the major carriers.

Continuing that trend, HTC’s executive director of product management today announced that the Android 4.4.2 update for the One Max on Verizon has received technical approval and will start rolling out from Monday. 

Samsung has officially introduced  its latest affordable, entry-level smartphone, the Galaxy Ace Style, at a press conference in Hamburg, Germany. Unlike any of the South Korean company’s other budget-friendly handsets, the Style is set to ship running the latest build of Android KitKat, and will be available to purchase for around €250 ($340).

Google has today announced that it’s now expanded the availability of its incredibly popular Opinion Rewards application to Australia, Canada and the United Kingdom. For those unaware, the app requires its users to take part in quick surveys in order to earn Google Play credit.

Samsung’s new lineup of Galaxy Gear smartwatches is now available to pre-order from Amazon. All three devices launch on Friday, April 11 in the U.S., and Amazon will deliver them to your door at no extra cost.
