Pandora

The popular radio application Pandora received a nifty update on Android this week, bringing a number of new features including lock screen controls.

Now that the Google Nexus 7 has recently become available in India, Google is making sure their new owners will have plenty of new content to access on their new devices. Google Play Movies is now available to Android users based in Mexico and India, for the first time ever.

Jack Black

Good ol’ Jack Black.

Have you have been watching a movie and wondered where you’ve seen an actor before? Normally you’d have to pause whatever you’re watching and look it up in IMDB or something, but now you can get that info by simply pausing in the Google Play Movies & TV app.

Google has added a pretty cool feature today called info cards. Details on actors, related movies, and even soundtracks will instantly pop up whenever you pause what you’re watching on an Android tablet.

Sonic

The original Sonic the Hedgehog, originally released in 1991 on the Sega MegaDrive, has already been ported to mobile platforms (iOS), but it’s yet to make its debut on Android. Fortunately for Sonic fans, that’s about to change. At the Game Developer Conference in San Francisco this week, Sega has confirmed that its classic platform will be hitting Google Play in April.

Chromebook-Pixel-LTE

You can already get your hands on Google’s new Chromebook Pixel if you don’t mind a Wi-Fi only model, but if you want to ensure you can get things done on the go — even without a Wi-Fi hotspot — you’ll want the one with LTE connectivity.

Google has remained relatively quiet about this particular model since launching its new notebook back in February, but it has now updated its Google Play store to confirm the Chromebook Pixel with LTE will be available “by April 8.”
