AT&T is to begin accepting pre-orders for the HTC One this week, according to a leaked company memo. The device will be available in black or white with 32GB of storage, and it will reportedly cost $249.99. There’s no mention of the exclusive 64GB device, however.
If you’re still the proud owner of a Sprint Epic 4G Touch, you can now update to Android 4.1 Jelly Bean (build GB27). The software update is only available to download via Samsung Kies. Sprint’s support page claims that the file is “only available over-the-wire”, as the file is too large for a direct download to your device.
Not for the U.K.
The Samsung Galaxy S4 will launch in the United Kindgom without a new eight-core Exynos 5 Octa processor, the Korean company has confirmed. It will instead be equipped with a 1.9GHz quad-core processor that will play nicely with the U.K.’s forthcoming 4G LTE networks.
If there were a flagship phone launching without 4G LTE capabilities, we’d be a little concerned. That’s why we’re not too surprised about EE’s latest announcement regarding the upcoming Samsung Galaxy S IV’s LTE support for its fast-growing 4G network.
Samsung has confirmed it will announce the much-anticipated Galaxy S IV at a public launch event in New York City’s Times Square on March 14, but until then, the details surrounding the handset’s design and specifications remain a mystery.
Recent reports have offered hints at what the new device may offer, and according to the latest, there will be two versions — one powered by Qualcomm’s quad-core Snapdragon 600 processor, and one powered by Samsung’s eight-core Exynos 5 Octa chip. But why do we need two?
