Sony Xperia Z4 leaked case confirms controls placement
4/8/2015 7:27:43 AM

The Sony Xperia Z4 is set to complete this year's flagship team when it launches sometime in the summer. It will come bearing few surprises though, as the device was already leaked in press images, as well as spotted live, multiple times. In another round of revealing photos, we now get to see a set of bumper cases for Sony's upcoming high-end device. Case manufacturers are by necessity a step or two ahead of the general public and often provide valuable intel on future devices. This time the cases bring yet another confirmation on the omission of the magnetic charging connector, as you certainly wouldn't want to remove your case for each charging session. Apparently it was deemed unnecessary, now that the microUSB port has gone flapless and delivers the hassle-free charging, that the magnetic solution was there for. Sony Xperia Z4 bumper cases Other than that, the controls placement is also as previously expected, with a central cutout for the power button on the right side. Next to it is volume rocker, and the dedicated camera shutter button is further down, towards the end. None of this has much bearing on the actual launch of the handset, though.

Samsung Galaxy Tab 4 10.1 with a new 64-bit chipset
4/8/2015 6:39:42 AM

Samsung has been testing an updated version of the Galaxy Tab 4 family for quite some time. The Galaxy Tab 4 8.0 was the first spotted running a brand new CPU and now rumors about the Galaxy Tab 4 10.1 following suit have been confirmed. The update in question has to do with the chipset. The old Snapdragon 400 is being swapped with a new 64-bit 410 model. While this is no major performance upgrade, the newer silicon is 64-bit, thus futureproofing the device and preparing it for the benefits of a Lollipop update. The rest of the specs sheet remains completely unchanged and so does the price tag. The device still comes with 1.5GB of RAM and a spacious but low-res 10.1-inch, 1280 x 800 pixel display. #twitter-widget-0 {width: 590px !important;} Samsung Galaxy Tab 4 VE 10.1 (Value Edition) SM-T533: old = "new", only change is Snapdragon 410. design & specs same pic.twitter.com/exa3PSIbXu— Roland Quandt (@rquandt) April 7, 2015 This only leaves one member or the Tab 4 family to wallow in the 32-bit realm, but chances are the Galaxy Tab 4 7.0, smallest of the bunch, will be getting the same treatment pretty soon as well. The update will undoubtedly extend the lifecycle of all three devices and might just hint that Samsung isn't planning a new Tab 5 series quite yet. Thanks for the tip...

4/8/2015 5:04:22 AM

Huawei is one of the companies lagging behind in the roll out of the Android 5.0 Lollipop update. Yet the Chinese company is bringing some good news now, as it has put up a list of smartphones pegged to get the Lollipop update starting next month.

It is going to be a long wait for Huawei device owners for the Lollipop update wrapped in the Emotion UI, but at least now we know it's coming. Source |...
