Google released the original model of its flagship 7-inch tablet, the Nexus 7, back in June, 2012, and a month later the device was available to purchase from the U.S. Play Store with a $199 price tag. However, if you didn’t have the opportunity to pick one up at the time, Walmart is currently offering the 7-inch slate for $159, which is $40 off the retailer’s usual price.

Samsung is in the midst of pushing out a largely-requested firmware update for the U.S. version all of its Galaxy Gear smartwatch. This upgrade brings users the ability to activate “Expanded Notifications”, in addition to the usual deluge of bug fixes, stability improvements and speed optimizations that the South Korean company bundles into all of its maintenance updates.

Fashionably late as usual, Verizon has at last posted the official update documents for a much-anticipated upcoming upgrade for HTC’s flagship smartphone of 2013, the One. This announcement comes two months after all the other major carriers in the United States started rolling out Android 4.3 for the handset and reveals that Big Red is now preparing to do the same.

Yesterday, Google officially announced that its latest ASUS produced flagship tablet, the Nexus 7, is now available in white for residents in the United States. The team at Mountain View also added that the new color is on its way to Japan and the U.K.

AT&T is in the process of pushing out a fairly minor over-the-air (OTA) update weighing in at just 57MB to all its carrier-branded LG G2 handsets located in the United States. Although it doesn’t bring any major software improvements, it’s still quite a significant stability update that we would strongly advice all G2 owners to download and install.
