A senior Samsung executive has already confirmed that Galaxy Gear, Samsung’s first Android-powered smart watch, will be making its debut alongside the Galaxy Note III next month. And according to a unnamed insider, the device will be available in 6GB and 8GB variants, it’ll have a 2.5-inch display, and you’ll beed to charge it every ten hours.
Kobo has today announced three new Android-powered tablets aimed at budget, midrange, and high-end tablet consumers. There are two 7-inch models and one 10-inch model, all of which are part of Kobo’s Arc family of slates and e-readers — and they’ll start hitting U.K. stores on October 16.
Samsung has done a pretty impressive job of keeping the Galaxy Note III under wraps ahead of its September 4 unveiling, but with just over a week to go until the big day, the handset’s new display has appeared in a series of high quality images from a “trusted source.”
Remember MoDaCo.SWITCH, the awesome little tweak that allows you to switch between your smartphone’s default ROM and stock Android on the fly? We wrote about it late last month when it first came to the HTC One, and now it’s available on the Galaxy S4, too.
It just got its first beta release, and those who backed the project on Indiegogo will be the first to gain access.
Motorola’s Touchless Control app, which allows you to control your smartphone using only your voice, is now available to download from Google Play. You can use it to set alarms, get directions, find answers to questions, “or do just about anything” — without having to touch your phone at all.
There is one caveat, however. The app’s only available on the Moto X, the Droid Ultra, the Droid Mini, and the Droid Maxx.
