Dropbox currently is rolling out a small staged update for its official Android application on the Google Play Store. This upgrade does not bring a great deal in terms of new functionality, but it does make mobile sharing, which was a fairly lengthy procedure in the previous version of the app, much easier and significantly faster.
Hot on the heels of AT&T’s rollout earlier today, Samsung has now started to push out the long-awaited Android 4.3 Jelly Bean update for its former flagship smartphone of 2012, the Galaxy Note II. In addition to the bump up to build I317UCUBMK6, the upgrade also brings a multitude of bug fixes, stability improvements, support for the Galaxy Gear and Samsung KNOX.
HTC announced its flagship smartphone of 2013, the HTC One, back in February, and a month later the handset was available to purchase in the U.K. from several independent retailers with a fairly hefty price tag of £599. However, if you didn’t pick one up at the time, it may be of interest for you to know that the online retailer Isme is currently selling the device for £549 — that’s £50 off the usual retail price.
