The HTC Developer Edition isn’t actually transparent, unfortunately.

If you’re planning to pick up the incredible new HTC One, but you want to ensure you’re going to be able to tinker with it and use any SIM from any carrier you choose, then you’re going to be delighted with HTC’s latest announcement. The company has unveiled the One Developer Edition, which comes with an unlocked SIM and bootloader for $649.

iPhone-wireless-charging

Apple and Samsung are both looking to bring wireless charging to their smartphones this year, following in the footsteps of rivals like Nokia, LG, and HTC. The feature will come to flagship devices, such as the upcoming Galaxy S IV, according to industry sources who have been speaking to DigiTimes.

AT&T has finally gotten around to rolling out the much-anticipated Android 4.1 Jelly Bean upgrade for the HTC One X, three months after the software first landed on the international model.

Users can look forward to a whole host of enhancements with this release, including Jelly Bean’s Google Now and Project Butter, and HTC’s Sense 4+ user interface.

The HTC One will become the first smartphone to boast HTC’s next-generation Sense 5 user interface when it goes on sale later this month. But you don’t need to wait until then to get your first taste of it — Sense 5’s gorgeous new wallpapers are already available to download.

Samsung-Galaxy-Note-II

Samsung has launched some of the post popular Android handsets of all time, with its Galaxy S series — which includes the Galaxy S II and the Galaxy S III — selling more than 100 million units. But the devices certainly aren’t popular for their build quality.

All of Samsung’s devices are made of plastic, and although they look good, they don’t feel anywhere near as nice as competing handsets like the iPhone 5, the Nexus 4, and any of HTC’s high-end Android handsets — particularly the new HTC One — which use materials like glass and aluminum to provide a premium feel.

But Samsung isn’t about to change that for the upcoming Galaxy S IV. The Korean company has confirmed it will continue to use plastic, and it has its reasons for doing so.
