For a high-end smartphone, the Galaxy S5 feels a little… cheap. I absolutely love mine; it’s one of the best Android phones I’ve ever owned thanks to its super speedy processor, stunning display, and excellent 16-megapixel camera. But I choose to carry the HTC One M8 instead. It’s just as capable in almost every way, and its sleek aluminum form factor is a joy to hold.

Like many of its predecessors and siblings, the Galaxy S5 has received criticism for its plastic design, and now the man who oversaw it is moving on. Chang Dong-hoon, head of Samsung’s mobile design center, will be replaced by vice president of mobile design Lee Min-Hyuk.

Yahoo News Digest, the popular need-to-know news reader that summarizes lengthy reads into easily digestible snippets, is now available on Android — four months after making its debut on iOS. The app is powered by the Summly technology that made teenage creator Nick D’Aloisio a multi-millionaire when it was acquired by Yahoo last year.

Wondering when your Samsung Galaxy-branded smartphone will receive the much-anticipated Android 4.4 KitKat update? Well, hopefully this post will help to shed some light on the answer to that question. Thanks to a series of recent leaks and rumors, we’ve compiled an ‘update guide’ containing the handsets that we believe are set to receive the beefy upgrade over the course of the next few weeks.

The next malware attack you run into on Android could cost you hundreds of dollars. Researchers have discovered a new trojan that holds your handset hostage until you’ve paid a heavy ransom, and its fear-mongering tactics are designed to make you cough up quick.

After making its way onto your device, “Android-Trojan.Koler.A” displays a supposed FBI warning that accuses you of viewing or storing “banned pornography.” It tells you your handset has been blocked, and it restricts access to many important functions — including your home screen — rendering your device useless until you pay a $300 “fine.”

The Samsung Galaxy S5 mini could launch with the “Galaxy S5 Dx” moniker, according to a leak that comes direct from Samsung. A new Galaxy S5 variant with this name made a brief appearance on the South Korean company’s website this week, indicating its official unveiling may be right around the corner.
