I think it’s great that Sony has chosen to certify third-party Android handsets for PlayStation Mobile; the Japanese company could quite easily have made the gaming service exclusive to its own Xperia devices. And this morning it has welcomed another three HTC handsets to the PlayStation Mobile family, doubling the total number of HTC devices that are supported by the service.

Best Buy is reportedly gearing up to reduce the Samsung Galaxy S III — this year’s hottest Android-powered smartphone — to just $50 on December 16. That’s a massive reduction to the Korean company’s most successful smartphone, and it most cases it’ll get you at least $100 off its regular retail price.

Chinese electronics manufacturer Oppo has unveiled its latest smartphone today, and it’s set to give high-end Android handsets a run for their money. It’s called the Find 5, and it packs a 5-inch 1080p display, a quad-core Qualcomm Snapdragon S4 Pro processor, and 2GB of RAM. And the impressive specifications don’t stop there.

Netflix video streaming remains one of the largest sources of peak downstream Internet traffic in the US. With over 1 billion hours of Netflix being watched per month, it’s safe to say they have a pretty good idea of the strains their service puts on ISPs. In fact, Netflix has been keeping tabs and gauging these ISPs to see just how well they perform.

We simply love wallpapers. They’re one of the first changes we make to our Android devices and often represent our moods, interests, or wicked alter egos. They’re as unique as the individuals who use them and while some people pick one and stick with it, others change them more often than a teenager’s Facebook status. Each day we’re going to feature a free wallpaper for you to download and use on your Android device. Depending on your device, you may want to use your favorite photo editing software to resize the image for a better fit. Once that’s done, apply and enjoy. Your home screen can thank us later. Cheers!
