Sony Xperia PLAY 4G LTE in the works. The Sony Ericsson Xperia PLAY wasn’t nearly as popular as many thought it would be, but now there are a few rumors and details going around showing we might be seeing a newer, faster 4G LTE version hit the streets from Verizon. The original wasn’t the famed device we expected and had pretty mediocre specs to go with those mediocre sales. When I first saw this I immediately thought it was a terrible idea and I’m still not convinced either, but figured I’d share the details with our readers.
Now if the PLAY 4G LTE comes with a bigger screen, Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich and a dual or quad-core then I’d be extremely excited but that jus… Continue Reading HereSony Xperia PLAY 4G LTE in the works Cory Gunther – androidcommunity.com Home » Sony Xperia PLAY 4G LTE in the works Category: Android News. Android Game Review: Star Diamonds Paradise. YouTube link for mobile viewing If you're looking for a slight deviation on the gameplay you'll find in Star Diamonds Capture, you need look no further than Star Diamonds Paradise. It's built much in the same way as its sister game, with a few differences. You're still playing against a live opponent (and you'll need an internet connection to do so!) , you're still trying to capture as many points on the board as you can, and you're still trying to fill your green bar up faster than your opponent.
Instead of the game being played on a grid, the jewels are laid out in rows with hexagonal backgrounds (which keeps them from lining up nicely). Jewels you capture are still colored with your color (and your opponent's captures are colored their color), and you can still steal their captures, just like they can steal yours. If you get a nice chain (minimum of four, I think), you'll net yourself a nice stick of dynamite. The most powerful powerup is the honey bee. Google Music Store Market screenshots leak, Free song of the Day and more. Users in the world of Android have been waiting for a full on music solution for what seems like ages, but come this Wednesday that might be exactly what we all finally get. We’ve just received some leaked screenshots showing a Google Music store in the Android Market, just like Movies and Books. The screenshots appear to be an early build or at least similar to what we can expect Google to announce at the “These Go to Eleven” press event this Wednesday.
Looking at the provided screenshots the store might not be fully functional yet but most likely it will be soon, or even launch on Wednesday to go along with the Google event. A few things worth no… Continue Reading HereGoogle Music Store Market screenshots leak, Free song of the Day and more Cory Gunther – androidcommunity.com Home » Google Music Store Market screenshots leak, Free song of the Day and more Category: Android News.
Orange Leaks Pre-Paid San Francisco II. Are there any UK folks looking to get a new pre-paid smartphone in the near future- Well, over the weekend it seems that Orange outed the upcoming ZTE made San Francisco II by accidentally posting its Help & Support page. Although Orange has already pulled the page down, we still managed to get a hold of all the SFII’s juicy details. The successor to the original San Francisco, the San Fran mark 2 steps up the specs a bit with a 800MHz ARM11 processor, a 3.5-inch WVGA TFT display, a 5MP camera and 512MB of on-board memory. This time around the device gets the Android 2.3… Continue Reading HereOrange Leaks Pre-Paid San Francisco II Robert Nazarian – talkandroid.com Home » Orange Leaks Pre-Paid San Francisco II Category: Android News.
Android Game Review: Star Diamonds Paradise. More Meizu MX Shots Appear, Still Offers Nothing New to Learn. The Meizu MX has been a phone of great interest us even if we’re almost positive we won’t be seeing it outside of China or Asia. The MX is the follow up to the popular Android-based M9 that watered the mouths of many. While many see Meizu as an iOS and iPhone-copying OEM, we can’t help but to applaud their achievements in the style and functionality of their phones. We’ve got some new shots today but we don’t learn much at all. You can see the camera on the back has flash and the backplate is of a pearly white color.

China Gets Interesting Motorola RAZR Variants, Including One With 720p Display. Popping up at Weibo today are some interesting China-bound Motorola RAZR variants. The first is a device that takes a lot of design cues from the DROID X and X2, though its chassis does differ a beat from those devices. They’re calling it the XT928 and it looks like it has a 13 megapixel shooter, though will be the same as the Motorola RAZR in processor and display and it may even make its way stateside as the DROID X3. The other one, the MT917, shakes things up a bit. It takes its design cues from the original RAZR, but has a 4.5 inch 720p HD display.

Review: Samsung HM7000 Bluetooth Headset – You’ll Still Look Like A… You Know. But It Works Great. Apple Must Reveal Australian Phone Contracts to Samsung. Things are really getting juicy between Apple and Samsung in Australia as Federal Court Justice Annabelle Bennett ruled that Apple must now provide Samsung with copies of contracts with Australian cellphone carriers.
If you wil remember, Samsung has sued Apple in Australia claiming that the iPhone and the iPad infringe on patents that the company holds for various wireless technologies. Samsung asserts that Apple forces carriers to subsidize iPhone sales and is requesting contracts from Vodafone, SingTel, and Telstra if the two mobile giants can’t come to an agreement on… Continue Reading HereApple Must Reveal Australian Phone Contracts to Samsung Stacy Bruce – talkandroid.com Home » Apple Must Reveal Australian Phone Contracts to Samsung Category: Android News. LG Mystery Device Shows Up Wearing a Mophie Juice Pack, LG’s First Ice Cream Sandwich Device- In recent mysteries to befall the inter-webs, a puzzling image of what appears to be an LG device has made headlines, subsequently causing more questions than actually revealing any answers.
There is nothing known about the device at this time nor why it appears to be clothed in a Mophie battery pack typically found on iPhones. The item(s) to note are the bottom row buttons across the device. They appear to be like those found on the LG Optimus Hub and Univa. The camera lens and flash tend to also be a dead giveaway as to this being an LG handset.
Furthermore, to add to the wow fa… Continue Reading HereLG Mystery Device Shows Up Wearing a Mophie Juice Pack, LG’s First Ice Cream Sandwich Device- Joe Sirianni – talkandroid.com Home » LG Mystery Device Shows Up Wearing a Mophie Juice Pack, LG’s First Ice Cream Sandwich Device- Category: Android News. Schmidt on Jobs’ claims: “…Android effort started before the iPhone effort” It wasn’t that long ago that those bone chilling words from Jobs came to light: “Our lawsuit is saying, ‘Google you f***ing ripped off the iPhone, wholesale ripped us off” and “I will spend my last dying breath if I need to, and I will spend every penny of Apple’s billion in the bank, to right this wrong. I’m going to destroy Android, because it’s a stolen product. “I’m willing to go thermonuclear war on this,” In response, while speaking to reporters in South Korea, Schmidt s… Continue Reading HereSchmidt on Jobs’ claims: “…Android effort started before the iPhone effort” Joe Sirianni – talkandroid.com Home » Schmidt on Jobs’ claims: “…Android effort started before the iPhone effort” Category: Android News.
HTC Sensation XE Shows Up In White. Everyone’s favorite original Beats Audio device, the Sensation XE, is about to slip into something a little more comfortable. And by that, I mean it’s going to begin debuting in white. I don’t know about you but it seems like white devices are starting to grow on me. The device is no HTC Rezound, but it’s no flake either. Housing a dual-core 1.5 GHz CPU and the ability to capture 1080p video recording makes the device a worthy contender.

Samsung Illusion device page surfaces on Verizon Infocenter. It's been a while since we talked about the Samsung Illusion, but a friendly ninja just dropped off a screencap of the Verizon Infocenter page for the entry-level handset in our inbox. Imagine a smaller version of the Nexus S, minus the vanilla Gingerbread build and plus an SD card slot, and you'll have a pretty good picture of what to expect.
The 1GHz Hummingbird and 512MB of RAM should make for a pretty damn speedy experience with the smaller resolution, though the tiny 3MP camera and TFT display clearly mark this one with the budget or entry-level tag.

Google Reaffirms Support For Android Partners In Asia – Offers To Defend OEM’s From Apple. And the winner of the Droid RAZR is ... HTC Rezound to Be Priced at $649.99 Off-Contract.
Verizon’s string of 9.99 off-contract smartphones is coming to an end. As is the case with the Motorola Droid RAZR the HTC Rezound will see a price tag of 9.99 without a contract, an increasingly popular option given the high turnaround rate of smartphone technology. The price increase is inline with Big Red’s increase in on-contract pricing for their high-end LTE handsets. Both the RAZR and Rezound will be 9 even with a two-year contract in place. The Samsung Galaxy Nexus will likely see similar pricing options. The information comes from the Rezound pricing guide, which DroidLife managed to get their hands on.

Several months ago the folks over at Pocket Now received a little tidbit from a source who provided a plethora of names of supposed future devices from HTC.
Well, initially dubbing it as a rumor and unsupported, the team was unable to officially publish the list. However, after several of these devices actually coming into fruition, the team began to take the list seriously. Since the list has come to light, thus far every HTC device that has hit the market was clearly on the list. And with yesterday’s revelation of the new quad-core monster from HTC, the Edge, this… Continue Reading HereBig HTC Codename List Revealed, 24 Names Still Unaccounted For Joe Sirianni – talkandroid.com Home » Big HTC Codename List Revealed, 24 Names Still Unaccounted For Category: Android News.
