What’s in her hand?!?

Motorla has begun sending out invitations for its official Moto X unveiling on August 1st at a media event in New York City. The flagship Android phone has been rumored to launch in August, and yesterday Motorola tweeted a picture of the device being assembled at a plant in Texas. Print ads for the Moto X have already been in circulation, and multiple leaks have revealed specific details about the highly anticipated device.

Multiple leaks have indicated that the Moto X won’t actually ship to customers until the last week of August. We expect Motorola to announce pre-orders after the unveiling and then start shipping from various carriers as the weeks progress.

Google Chairman Eric Schmidt has been seen using the Moto X in the wild, and a leaked promotional video from Rogers, a Canadian carrier, recently showed off several key features in the new device.

Two days ago we found out that Google has a new Nexus 7 up its sleeve at $269 for a 32GB model, even though the specs were a mystery. A new leak has revealed more details on Google’s next tablet though, thanks to a product info price tag leaked to Engadget.

New features on the Nexus 7 will include a 1.5GHz quad-core processor, a 1.2MP front-facing camera, a 5MP rear-facing camera, wireless charging, Slim Port support and Android 4.3.

The Nexus 7 will keep its 7-inch display, but it’s not clear if the screen resolution will get a bump. All the details of the new tablet will likely be revealed at Google’s event on July 24th with Sundar Pichai.

Are you itching to get Android 4.2.2 on your Galaxy Note II? Well, don’t hold your breath, because according to one carrier, it’s never coming. The device is expected to skip the release and jump straight to Android 4.3 instead.

Do you ever wish you had a better camera in your smartphone? Well, before you upgrade to a hideous Samsung Galaxy S4 Zoom, you might want to take a look at the blurry picture below. It’s an accessory that Sony is rumored to be working on that’ll help you take incredible pictures with your smartphone.

It’s not just a fancy clip-on lens; it’s actually a 20.2-megapixel Exmor RS camera with a Carl Zeiss lens that uses your smartphone’s display as its viewfinder.

We’ve seen lots of demand for BBM on Android and iOS since BlackBerry announced in May that the service would finally go cross-platform. And the Canadian company has promised us that the app will be here by the end of summer. But how long is BlackBerry’s summer?

According to one company executive, we could be waiting up until September.
