A leaked soak test screenshot has been published on the internet revealing that AT&T’s much-anticipated Android 4.4.2 update for LG’s former flagship phablet of 2013, the G Pro, is currently in the final phase of development and should start rolling out by way of an over-the-air update very soon. It’s rumored that this upgrade ferries the latest build of KitKat, in addition to several enhancements for the company’s extremely unique user interface.
LG’s first smartphone with a curved OLED screen, the G Flex is expected to receive Android 4.4 soon. And now a new revelation made by the smartphone’s User Agent Profile (UAProf) has revealed that the update will pack support for 4K video capture.
After a short recess, T-Mobile is now resuming its OTA KitKat rollout and has started by pushing the beefy Android 4.4.2 update to all its carrier-branded LG G2 smartphones currently located in the United States. This much-anticipated update finally brings the latest version of the open-source operating system together with a multitude of ‘bug fixes, speed optimizations and user experience improvements’.
LG officially announced that its first curved self-healing smartphone, the G Flex, was presented with a Gold Award earlier today, along with 26 of its other products at the iF Design Awards conference in Denmark. This came as quite a nice surprise to the South Korean company seeing that the Flex was the first handset on the market to feature a vertically curved display, and there was no real certainty that it would be welcomed by the public.
Just as expected, Samsung unveiled its flagship Galaxy S5 at Mobile World Congress on Monday evening. In addition to fancy new features like a fingerprint scanner and heartbeat sensor, the handset boasts the latest Snapdragon 801 processor, a 1080p Super AMOLED display, and a 16-megapixel rear-facing camera with rich tone HDR, selective focus, and more.
But how does the Galaxy S5 compare to some of its competitors, like the iPhone 5s, the new Sony Xperia Z2, and its cousin, the Galaxy Note 3? We’ve put together a handy comparison chart below that makes it all clear — and may help you choose the best handset for you.
