Verizon Wireless has just listed the 2014 Edition Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 on its website with a relatively steep price tag. This tablet was launched back last year during the IFA event along with the Galaxy Note 3. The variant launched by the carrier comes with the 2.3 GHz quad core Snapdragon 800 SoC as it supports LTE.

KitKat-big

Millions of Galaxy S3 owners were understandably upset when their handset was absent from a recent list of Samsung devices set to get a KitKat upgrade — but it seems there’s still hope for the two-year-old handset.

According to a leaked Samsung document obtained by an “unnamed insider,” the South Korean company is quietly readying an Android 4.4 upgrade for the Galaxy S3 that is scheduled to arrive as early as next month.

For the first time since it was introduced nine years ago, the cost of Amazon Prime is going up. According to Amazon, existing Prime members will pay $99 per year on their annual renewal date, while Amazon Student members will now pay $49.

The Prime Fresh membership fee will remain unchanged at $299.

HTC-Windows-Phone

Microsoft has reportedly made its Windows Phone operating system free to select handset manufacturers in an effort to gain ground on Android and iOS.

Both Xolo and Karbonn — two smartphone makers based in India — recently signed deals with Microsoft that will allow them to launch Windows Phone devices free from license fees, according to sources speaking to The Times of India.
