If you’ve got a thing for super-sized smartphones and you live in the U.K., you’ll be pleased to know you can now get your hands on the Samsung Galaxy Note 3. The device is now available from a number of carriers and smartphone retailers, as is Galaxy Gear, the companion smartwatch that brings apps and notifications to your wrist.

Samsung has traditionally offered its smartphones in a whole variety of colors, but one we rarely see is gold — until Apple announces a gold smartphone. Just two weeks after the Cupertino company unveiled the gold iPhone 5s, Samsung has begun showcasing its gold Galaxy S4 in the United Arab Emirates.

Does this company have any shame?

Yesterday, Sprint officially announced that it will be offering Samsung’s much-anticipated flagship smartphone of 2013, the Galaxy Note III, together with its companion device, the Galaxy Gear smartwatch from Friday, October 4.

Samsung has started rolling out a major over-the-air update for its Wi-Fi only version of the Galaxy Tab 2 10.1 in Australia. This upgrade bumps the 10.1-inch slates firmware version up to P5110XXDMH2, which brings a mass of new features, bug fixes and stability improvements.

It’s Sunday, the time of the week when Cult of Android brings you its report on some of the very best apps we have been using throughout the past week.

This week we have been trying out a very impressive calendar application, a gorgeous live wallpaper, a simple, yet futuristic calendar widget, and last but not least, an extremely useful exclusive app for Samsung customers.
