According to a leaked CPU-Z report, HTC’s upcoming Nexus tablet, codenamed Volantis, is set to be the first device on the market to feature Nvidia’s 64-bit Tegra K1 processor clocked at 2.5GHz. This revelation comes just days after renowned leaker, @Evleaks, took to Twitter to publicize his suspected specifications for the slate, which incidentally match up perfectly to the news we’re seeing today.
For today’s Tuesday Tweak, we’re focusing our attention on Popup Notifier, a very flexible and unique third-party notification service, which only launched for Android back in November, 2013. The app is currently only available to download on devices running Android 4.2 Jelly Bean and above, but compatibility is expected to be added for older versions of the open-source operating system sometime in the not-too-distant future.
Fashionably late, as usual, Sprint has at last started rolling out the much-anticipated Android 4.4.4 update to all its carrier-branded Moto X handsets currently located in the United States. In addition to the latest build of the open-source operating system, this upgrade also brings an updated dialer application, the means to pause video recording within the camera app, and the habitual bug fixes and stability improvements.
HTC One mini owners on AT&T will finally get their Sense 6 upgrade this week, according to HTC America Product Manager Leigh Momii. The release will deliver HTC’s latest KitKat software and add new features like BlinkFeed, Sense TV, Zoe, and Motion Launch.
Huawei took to YouTube earlier today to tease its upcoming flagship smartphone of 2014. All signs point towards the Ascend Mate 7 being announced at the annual IFA consumer trade show in Berlin, Germany, on Thursday, September 4.
