Verizon HTC 8X Users Receiving WP8 Portico Update
If you reside in the U.S, you’re fully aware of how carriers deal with their users. The country’s largest carrier, Verizon, is also the country’s slowest in a way when it comes to update roll outs.

Nokia Could Announce Low End Lumia WP8 Smartphone at MWC 2013
Nokia’s ambitions in the smartphone market do not come down one bit, which is how a company should be. But its recent offerings like the Lumia 920, 820, 822 (Verizon) and 620 are only marginally doing well in the market. The problem in my opinion is not the hardware from Nokia, but the software/operating system [...]
T-Mobile Nexus 4 Available for Free On Contract Until Sunday
We all love deals, especially the ones on our favorite devices (not if we’ve recently bought the device after paying more).

Will Google’s Steeply Priced Chromebook Pixel Gain Traction In the Market?
Google has set its foot in a lot of fields with one of them being Chromebooks. These cloud based laptops/notebooks (if we can call it that) don’t brag of a lot of raw horsepower. The Samsung and Acer Chromebooks that are available in the market today come for a very good price and do its [...]

We’ve all heard of Photo Sphere plenty of times. The feature is one of the things which makes the Google Nexus 4 stand out from the rest of the competition, apart from the obvious Nexus moniker and the Google goodies that are bundled along with that name (read: timely updates). But as of now, it’s [...]

Google Could Launch Touch Based Chromebooks in the Future
Tablets these days are a huge market. But we all know that tablets are an evolution of the standard notebook PC. Manufacturers wanted to interact with the display itself rather than offering a separate layout for keyboards, which is where the idea of the modern tablet was born. In the current era, we have tablets [...]
