Like the new Nexus 5X, 32GB of internal storage was the most you could get with the Nexus 5. But 18 months on, that’s just not enough for some people — and there’s nothing you can do about it without a microSD card slot. Except one thing.

With the right tools, an incredibly steady hand, and plenty of courage, you can whip out the storage chip that’s inside your Nexus 5 and replace it with a bigger one — as you’ll see in the hack below.

Samsung’s next-generation Galaxy Note will be even more spectacular than its last, according to the latest claims.

Just a day after Sony released an Android N Developer Preview for the Xperia Z3, an unofficial port has been made available for the Xperia Z2.

Traffic hopping was never as much fun as it is in hit mobile game Crossy Road, and now you can play with up to three of your Android-toting friends in Wi-Fi enabled multiplayer mode.

You’ll weave through traffic with your buddies, able to bump each other into oncoming traffic to snap up all the coins and get the highest score, but if all four of you get squashed, it’s game over, so you’ll have to strategically revive your enemies along the way, too.
