Sprint has announced that the much-anticipated Android 4.4.2 KitKat over-the-air update is currently in preparation for its carrier-branded Samsung Galaxy Mega (5.8 and 6.3), Galaxy Note II, Galaxy S4 Mini, Galaxy S III, and Galaxy Tab 3 7.0 variants located in both North and South America.
Motorola has updated its official Touchless Control application on the Google Play Store for Droid Ultra, Droid Mini, Droid Maxx and Moto X owners running the latest build of Android 4.4 KitKat. This latest version of the app allows its operators to say a voice command and in return have their notifications read aloud to them without even having to come into physical contact with their phone.
One of the most interesting announcements from Samsung’s Unpacked 5 event last week was the Gear 2, Gear 2 Neo and more particularly the Gear Fit smartwatch. Although Samsung detailed the features of these devices in length, the company refrained from giving out pricing details. But a new leak has now revealed that information as well and we’re not very surprised.
A new leak has revealed the existence of two new ASUS Transformer Pad hybrid devices. Known as the Asus TF103 and Asus TF303, these tablets will reportedly arrive in the markets soon with a respectable hardware on board. The TF303 is rumored to pack Android 4.4 along with an Intel made chipset, promising a true notebook like experience. The TF103 however is expected to feature a slightly toned down hardware. Unfortunately there’s no word on other specifications of the two devices.
Samsung unveiled its second scaled-down portable Galaxy Tab 3 variant, the Galaxy Tab 3 8.0, back in June, 2013, and a month later the device was available to purchase in the United States from several independent retailers for $299. However, if you haven’t had the opportunity to get your hands on one before now, it may be of interest for you to know that Best Buy is currently offering the slate with a $50 discount.
