LG-Optimus-F3-9

It had to happen eventually, but now that it has, it feels weird: smartphones are now officially outselling dumb feature phones internationally for the first time ever. And what made it happen? Cheap Android phones.

Samsung-Hennessy-closed

After its first press shots were leaked on Tuesday, we knew it wouldn’t be long before Samsung made the Hennessy official. And now the Korean company’s first Android-powered flip phone can be found on its Chinese website.

The Hennessy boasts two 3.3-inch displays — one on the front and one inside — plus a quad-core processor, dual-SIM support, and a 5-megapixel rear-facing camera.

LG-L1-II-big

LG announced its ultra-affordable extra small entry-level Android smartphone, the Optimus L1 II, last week and today we have confirmation that it’s heading to Three U.K., from where it is expected to launch “soon.”

It simply slots back together.

The new Nexus 7 has quickly become the hottest Android-powered tablet available, combining high-end specifications with a very attractive price tag. But the super slate hasn’t been without its fair share of problems since it went on sale late last month.

Samsung’s upcoming Android-powered flip phone, the Galaxy Folder, has been leaked a number of times in recent weeks, so we already know exactly what it’s going to look like. And now we have some early press shots that all but confirm its final design.

Also known as the Galaxy Hennessy, this device is set to be a midrange smartphone with a traditional numeric keypad, and it’s likely to remain in South Korea and other Asian countries where flip phones are still popular devices.
